[01:51] Tako
    I'll call the doctor!

    CEO Saionji!
[02:15] Reporters
    We're told that Yu Otonashi
    was in a training accident.
[02:19] Reporters
    What can you tell us about his injuries?
SIGN    Saint Nicholas General Hospital
[02:23] Nohira
    How are his injuries?
[02:26] Saionji
    He's finally awake.
[02:29] Nohira
    I'm glad to hear that.
[02:31] Tako
    Nohira...
[02:33] Saionji
    Never let us see you here again.
[02:36] Saionji
    We'll ensure Yu is taken care of.
[02:39] Saionji
    No one from the horse racing
    industry is welcome in his room.
[02:44] Nohira
    Understood.
[02:46] Hayato
    Um, I'm sorry about Arimura...
[02:48] Saionji
    Leave.
[03:03] Saionji
    Yu, stop.
[03:05] Yu
    But I have my monkey riding test
    and jumping exercises in a month.
[03:11] Yu
    I need to get better by then...
[03:15] Yu
    Oh, right! Is Rice Kate okay?
[03:17] Tako
    Just fine.
[03:19] Tako
    They're back at the stable and doing okay.
[03:21] Yu
    Good...
[03:23] Yu
    How about Hayato?
[03:24] Saionji
    Worry about yourself, not others.
[03:29] Saionji
    Doctor.
[03:30] Doctor
    Arimura, about your injuries...
[03:34] Doctor
    If you put stress on your muscles before
    they recover, you could damage them.
[03:39] Doctor
    It's important to give yourself
    enough time to recover.
[03:43] Yu
    Time?
[03:45] Yu
    Do you mean...?
[03:46] Doctor
    A month likely won't be enough.
SIGN    The Horse Racing School
[03:53] Asahi
    We're told Arimura suffered no major
    damage to his bones or organs.
[03:59] Asahi
    But he suffered a muscle tear
    that has weakened his right hand.
[04:04] Asahi
    He'll need to rest for a while.
[04:06] Kota
    But we have our test and
    jumping exercises in a month.
[04:10] Eri
    Will he make it?
[04:11] Aki
    Well, Instructor?
[04:14] Asahi
    We won't be changing the
    schedule for the exercises.
[04:18] Asahi
    If he doesn't make it in time...
[04:20] Amane
    Repeat a year...
[04:22] Amane
    He'll be held back?
[04:24] Eri
    Yeah.
[04:29] Sojiro
    What about Hayato, sir?
[04:30] Asahi
    Hosho's not badly hurt.
[04:33] Asahi
    Instructor Nohira is with him. Don't worry.
[04:36] Kota
    Um, is it true that
     Instructor Nohira is his father?
[04:41] Asahi
    Yes.
[04:43] Asahi
    Hosho asked that you not be told.
[04:46] Asahi
    He wanted to be seen as a
    fellow student. An equal.
[04:50] Aki
    That sounds like him.
[04:53] Eri
    But doesn't that make
    Instructor Nohira kind of cold?
[04:56] Sojiro
    That's how it is for jockeys.
[04:58] Sojiro
    It's difficult to know how to act around
    a son who's in the same business as you.
[05:06] Hayato
    It's all my fault.
[05:09] Nohira
    Don't blame yourself.
[05:11] Nohira
    It was an accident.
[05:13] Hayato
    But if I hadn't lost control...
[05:17] Hayato
    If I hadn't forced myself to lose weight...
[05:19] Hayato
    If I'd made my choice sooner...
[05:23] Hayato
    If Arimura never comes back...
[05:27] Nohira
    For now, think about yourself.
[05:32] Nohira
    And what you can do now.
[05:38] Kota
    Think it'll be hard for Arimura?
[05:41] Aki
    It'll be hard without grip strength.
[05:43] Aki
    That's the core of monkey riding.
[05:45] Eri
    I know it's bad because
    Asahi wasn't talking funny.
[05:50] Aki
    But one injury doesn't mean
    the end of everything.
[05:54] Kota
    Yeah. The famous jockey Kuji came
    back from a bad injury, after all.
[06:01] Sojiro
    Hmm... Some jockeys have
    come back from bad injuries.
[06:06] Sojiro
    But only if they're very good to begin with,
[06:08] Sojiro
    and they usually don't race
    as much as they did before.
[06:12] Aki
    Shun, you've been quiet.
    Don't you have any thoughts?
[06:17] Aki
    You don't seem too upset to me.
[06:19] Eri
    Stop it.
[06:21] Amane
    What you're saying is pure nonsense.
[06:24] Aki
    What?!
[06:25] Amane
    Yu Arimura was injured. No matter
    whose fault it was or why it happened,
[06:29] Amane
    that's a fact.
[06:31] Amane
    That doesn't change just
    because he's your friend.
[06:34] Amane
    That's what it means to be a jockey, right?
[06:43] Amane
    Who cares if he's held back a year?
[06:47] Amane
    Just wait a year and there's no problem.
[06:50] Aki
    Yeah, but...
[06:58] Aki
    Hayato!
[07:03] Asahi
    I see. No visitors, huh?
[07:06] Nohira
    I'm told a month likely won't
    be enough for recovery.
[07:09] Nohira
    I hope he makes it in time for his test...
[07:13] Nohira
    But I'm worried.
[07:15] Nohira
    Is it just Arimura you're worried about?
[07:21] Nohira
    Why don't you just admit how you really feel?
[07:30] Shun
    Are you lonely, Rice Kate?
[07:33] Shun
    I see... You miss Yu too, don't you?
[07:40] Sojiro
    Is he going to come back if you quit?
[07:44] Hayato
    You wouldn't understand.
[07:47] Sojiro
    Hayato!
[07:50] Hayato
    I can't take this anymore!
[07:53] Shun
    Why not?
[07:56] Hayato
    I know better than anybody that
    my weight's not going down!
[08:02] Hayato
    But I kept struggling like an
    idiot and got Arimura hurt!
[08:08] Hayato
    I even put the horse in danger!
[08:11] Sojiro
    That's not true.
[08:14] Hayato
    I don't have the right
    to ride a horse anymore.
[08:19] Shun
    But he wants you to ride him again.
[08:26] Shun
    Even if we get sad or quit,
    in the end, the horses don't care.
[08:32] Shun
    If there was such a thing as
    the right to ride a horse,
[08:38] Shun
    you'd only lose it when the horse
    won't let you ride it, I think!
[08:56] Voices
    I think it's over for Yu Otonashi.
[08:58] Voices
    He never really was 100% dedicated to this.
[09:01] Voices
    It's his own damn fault.
[09:02] Voices
    Go back to Mr. Doctor!
[09:21] Tako
    Yu...
[09:26] Yu
    Tako, people can be harsh, can't they?
[09:31] Tako
    Well...
[09:33] Yu
    I want to get back in the saddle!
[09:36] Yu
    I need to do my best at my physical therapy.
[09:39] Yu
    Think I can start next week?
[09:42] Yu
    I caused problems for everybody.
[09:43] Yu
    I need to get back to 100%... no, 120%.
[09:47] Saionji
    I'm never letting you on a horse again.
[09:50] Tako
    Ma'am...
[09:56] Saionji
    I sent the paperwork to withdraw
    you from the Horse Riding School.

    That's ridiculous!
[10:17] Sojiro
    Is that true, Instructor?
[10:20] Asahi
    The paperwork for his withdrawal
    came from his agency.
[10:24] Asahi
    Instructor Nohira's sitting on it right now.
[10:27] Eri
    Don't let it go through.
[10:29] Asahi
    With no way of knowing
    how he personally feels,
[10:31] Asahi
    we can't ignore a request
     from his guardians.
[10:34] Asahi
    They just say that Arimura
    was shocked by his injury
[10:37] Asahi
    and lost his motivation to become a jockey.
[10:41] Shun
    Um, Instructor, I think that's a lie!
[10:44] Aki
    Yeah! It's not true!
[10:46] Amane
    An overly complex lie.
    That's just like the Japanese!
[10:48] Kota
    What does that mean?
[10:49] Sojiro
    It means the agency sent
    it without asking him.
[10:51] Asahi
    I want to believe the same thing.
[10:52] Asahi
    But for now, everyone, wait.
[11:25] Yu
    No! Why?
[11:29] Saionji
    Being a jockey can get you
    killed. It's dangerous!
[11:36] Saionji
    With your injured hand, can
    you succeed as a jockey?
[11:41] Yu
    I...
[11:43] Yu
    If I get better...
[11:45] Saionji
    And if you don't?
[11:47] Saionji
    When you quit Mr. Doctor, you said you'd
    pay the penalty clause in the contract.
[11:53] Saionji
    How do you intend to do that?
[12:00] Saionji
    Yu.
[12:05] Saionji
    Be realistic.
[12:07] Saionji
    Being an idol is your only path.
[12:41] Clerk
    Take care.
[12:56] Kuji
    Hey.
[13:07] Yu
    Kuji...
[13:10] Tako
    Yes. Yes.
[13:11] Tako
    S-Sorry... Thank you.

[13:27] Kuji
    So I heard you're an idol, huh?
[13:29] Kuji
    I should've gotten an autograph!
[13:36] Kuji
    So? When are you leaving?
[13:41] Yu
    I'm quitting.
[13:44] Kuji
    It's that bad?
[13:47] Yu
    No.
[13:50] Kuji
    I see.
[13:52] Kuji
    Bye then, idol.
[13:55] Kuji
    I'm glad to have one less rival.
[13:58] Kuji
    You're not cut out for this.
[14:07] Yu
    Kuji!
[14:10] Yu
    Why didn't you push forward
    at the derby this year?
[14:16] Yu
    On that last straight, when there was
    that gap in front of Moa Wisteria.
[14:20] Yu
    You were slow to push through it!
[14:22] Yu
    I think you should've pushed harder!
[14:30] Kuji
    There's no point in telling someone
    who's not going to be a jockey.
[14:38] Kuji
    I didn't think anybody would see that...
[14:44] Yu
    Damn it!
[14:58] Aki
    I just can't accept it!
[15:00] Aki
    Why does Arimura have to quit?
[15:02] Amane
    It was probably Miss Devil Frog
    who sent the paperwork in.
[15:07] Sojiro
    I'm sure of it.
[15:08] Sojiro
    She's the one who had the
    documentary of him made.
[15:12] Eri
    So she never wanted him to be
    a jockey in the first place?
[15:16] Kota
    That's awful...
[15:18] Hayato
    But it's true that he's badly injured.
[15:22] Aki
    Arimura would never give up, would he?
[15:28] Shun
    Let's go find out, then!
[15:44] Nohira
    You've made your choice?
[15:46] Hayato
    Yes. But give me just a little more time.
[15:52] Nohira
    Fine. Do what you want.
[15:55] Hayato
    And one more thing.
[15:57] Hayato
    It's about Arimura.
[16:08] Aki
    'Scuse me! We're here to
    see Arimura in Room 402!
[16:19] Tako
    I'll be right back.
[16:34] Shun
    Hey there, Yu!
[16:38] Yu
    Shun!
[16:40] Tako
    You can't fool me with those disguises!
[16:44] Tako
    The CEO won't let anybody see Yu. Even you.
[16:48] Aki
    Just for a moment! Please!
[16:50] Sojiro
    There's nothing you can do, Tako?
[16:54] Tako
    Sorry.
[16:55] Sojiro
    Then take a message, huh?
[16:58] Tako
    I'm afraid I can't.
[17:01] Aki
    Wait!
[17:03] Aki
    Right!
[17:04] Aki
    I wanted to ask you something!
[17:06] Sojiro
    Oh! Me, too!
[17:08] Sojiro
    I want to meet a female
    newscaster! Any tips?
[17:08] Aki
    What's your favorite animal?
    Mine's dogs! I've got one!
[17:11] Sojiro
    Tako!
[17:13] Aki
    Wait!
[17:17] Shun
    Hayato got Instructor Nohira
    to let us leave the grounds.
[17:21] Yu
    But how...?
[17:23] Shun
    It'll take a much bigger
    wall than this to stop me!
[17:25] Shun
    It's a lot easier to climb
    than the cliffs on the island.
[17:30] Yu
    You can't just—
[17:32] Shun
    I'm glad.
[17:33] Shun
    I thought you might be really hurt.
     Glad you're doing better than I thought.
[17:38] Yu
    I'm not.
[17:41] Yu
    I'm finished.
[17:43] Shun
    Don't be silly!
[17:45] Shun
    Work hard and it'll come back!
[17:47] Yu
    I'm finished!
[17:54] Yu
    No matter how hard I work,
    I can't be a jockey.
[17:58] Yu
    I can't ride Rice Kate...
[18:03] Yu
    You wouldn't understand.
[18:06] Yu
    You're always optimistic. You can
    tell what the horses are feeling...
[18:19] Yu
    I've seen you up close...
    and I can't be like you!
[18:26] Shun
    But you like it, don't you?
[18:28] Yu
    What?
[18:31] Shun
    You like riding horses, don't you?
[18:46] Yu
    Of course! More than almost anything!
[18:52] Shun
    Yeah, I know!
[19:22] Aki
    You're late.
[19:24] Sojiro
    You get it to him?
[19:26] Shun
    Yup.
[19:28] Shun
    It'll be okay.
[19:32] Aki
    Can you hear me?
[19:35] Yu
    Aki!
[19:36] Aki
    You all ready?
[19:37] Eri
    Okay.
[19:38] Amane
    Let's make this quick.
[19:39] Aki
    I'll start.
[19:41] Aki
    Hey! Arimura!
[19:42] Aki
    The Yu of Mr. Doctor that
    I loved would never give up!
[19:45] Aki
    Show me you've got guts!
[19:46] Kota
    Arimura, hang in there!
[19:48] Eri
    If you quit, I'll be the one who gets
    the most attention. You okay with that?
[19:53] Sojiro
    You haven't told me how to get in
    touch with a female newscaster.
[19:58] Amane
    Will I never see Yu Arimura's pathetic
    attempts to ride a horse again?
[20:02] Amane
    Oh, never mind.
[20:04] Hayato
    Arimura.
[20:05] Yu
    Hayato.
[20:09] Hayato
    Arimura, I'm so sorry.
[20:12] Hayato
    I know nothing I can say will make up for it,
[20:15] Hayato
    and I can't bear to face you directly.
[20:17] Hayato
    But Arimura, don't give up! Please!
[20:22] Shun
    Yu, listen!
[20:26] Shun
    You ready, Hayato?
[20:28] Hayato
    Yeah.
[20:31] Shun
    Let's go, Rice Kate!
[20:46] Shun
    Yu, you felt it, right?
[20:49] Shun
    Let's become one, once more!
[21:12] Tako
    Yu!
[21:31] Yu
    I wanted to feel the wind.
[21:34] Tako
    O-Oh.
