[00:11] Woman
    Omi-chan! Hang in there!
[00:21] Mid
    Is Koyanagi-sama not here yet?
[00:23] Mid
    At a time like this...
[00:25] Mid
    Does he value catching criminals
    more than his own wife?
[00:29] Mid
    Okay! Almost there!
[00:33] Mid
    It's born!
[00:38] Omi
    Yasugoro-sama...
[00:50] Omi
    Oh, how can it be?
[00:55] Omi
    Omi-chan...
[00:58] Omi
    Omi-chan!
[00:59] Omi
    Omi-chan!
[01:02] Koy
    Omitsu!
[01:18] Koy
    Omitsu...
[01:34] Koy
    Omitsu...
[01:37] Koy
    I'm so sorry I wasn't here for you.
[01:46] Hei
    Forgive me, Koyanagi.
SIGN    A Hopeless Man
SIGN    Tsuboi Dojo
[03:07] Hira
    He looks so haunted.
[03:10] Mon
    Yes.
[03:11] Mon
    And Koyanagi-dono was once so easygoing.
[03:21] Mon
    He's like a different man.
[03:27] Koy
    Next!
[03:34] Tat
    The guy's totally nuts.
[03:37] Tat
    Ow...
[03:38] Tat
    He could've held back just a little.
[03:41] Tat
    I'm Hasegawa Heizo's heir, after all.
[03:44] Hei
    Are you, really?
[03:47] Tat
    Father!
[03:49] Hisa
    At last, he looks like he's
    been properly fencing.
[03:54] Hei
    He does indeed.
[03:56] Hei
    Who did that to you?
[03:58] Tat
    Koyanagi-sama!
[04:00] Tat
    It's like he had a grudge
    against me or something.
[04:04] Hei
    He knows you're a layabout.
[04:08] Hei
    But really, it's about time.
[04:11] Hisa
    Yes, you've been attending there for so long.
[04:15] Tat
    Tsuboi-sensei is the one
    you recommended, Father.
[04:19] Tat
    Maybe it's your fault I'm
    not getting any better.
[04:24] Hei
    Just being in contact with a
    man of Tsuboi-sensei's caliber
[04:29] Hei
    will be to your benefit.
[04:38] Hei
    You know, Hisae...
[04:40] Hei
    I feel like Koyanagi is trying
    to get himself killed.
[04:45] Hisa
    Surely not.
[04:47] Hei
    I think he wants to provoke me,
[04:51] Hei
    and force me to kill him, so that
    he can join his wife and child.
[04:56] Hisa
    He mustn't do such a thing.
[05:02] Hisa
    Incense.
[05:04] Hisa
    Give it to Koyanagi-sama tomorrow.
[05:07] Hei
    That's right.
[05:09] Hei
    Tomorrow is the anniversary of their deaths.
[05:21] Koy
    Forgive me, Omitsu.
[05:23] Koy
    I'll be joining you both very soon.
[06:10] Ota
    Let me die,
[06:12] Ota
    I beg of you.

[06:20] Hiko
    Welcome!
[06:23] Hiko
    Is that you, Master Koyanagi?
[06:26] Hiko
    Fancy seeing you here.
[06:28] Koy
    Sir, do you have an open room?
[06:31] Hiko
    Yes, feel free to use it.
SIGN    Gotetsu
[06:37] Omasa
    Right this way.
[06:44] Koy
    Sir, can you prepare something
    warm for the mother and child?
[06:49] Hei
    Yes, of course.
[06:54] Koy
    I was at Ryogoku Bridge.
[06:56] Koy
    She was about to throw herself
    into the Ogawa River.
[07:00] Koy
    Could you look after them tonight?
[07:03] Koy
    I don't want to leave them alone.
[07:06] Oma
    Certainly.
[07:08] Koy
    I'm glad you're here.
[07:10] Koy
    I've asked, but she won't tell me anything.
[07:14] Oma
    She may be more willing
    to speak to another woman.
[07:19] Oma
    I'll give you my report tomorrow.
[07:22] Koy
    Please do.
[07:23] Hiko
    Here we are, dear.
[07:31] Hiko
    Don't hold back, now.
[07:44] Ota
    It warms me up.
[07:46] Hiko
    Glad to hear it.
[07:50] Hiko
    Is that a girl?
[07:52] Ota
    Yes.
[07:54] Hiko
    What a little charmer.
[07:57] Koy
    To think I'd save someone
    on a day like today...
[08:00] Oma
    The anniversary of your
    wife and child's death?
[08:04] Koy
    Yes.
[08:05] Koy
    I caught sight of them on the
    way back from their grave.
[08:09] Koy
    Maybe it's fate, of a sort.
[08:17] Koy
    May I?
[08:18] Chu
    Koyanagi-san? What brings you here?
[08:22] Koy
    I'd like to share a drink.
[08:24] Chu
    Sounds great!
[08:26] Chu
    Let's get this party rolling!
[08:31] Chu
    Something good happen to you?
[08:36] Chu
    Did you find a woman?!
[08:37] Koy
    And a child.
[08:39] Chu
    A child?
[08:41] Chu
    What in the world?
[08:43] Chu
    Wait... did you knock her up?
[08:46] Chu
    Or, wait... did you get in good with a widow?
[08:52] Chu
    C'mon, tell me!

SIGN    The Next Day
[08:58] Hiko
    W-Welcome.
[09:19] Oma
    Don't be too shocked, Master Koyanagi.
[09:24] Oma
    They're the wife and child of
    Shikadome no Matahachi, whom you arrested.
[09:32] Koy
    What did you say?
SIGN    Shorinji Temple
[09:47] Koy
    Intruders!
[09:51] (Flashback) Mata
    Look out!
[09:57] (Flashback) Koy
    Arson & Theft Department!
[09:58] (Flashback) Koy
    Give yourself up!
[10:06] Koy
    She's the wife of that thief?
[10:09] Oma
    Her name is Otaka.
[10:11] Oma
    She married Matahachi about four years ago.
[10:15] Oma
    Otaka believed he was
    an honest rosary seller.
[10:27] (Flashback) Mata
    I'm heading out.
[10:29] (Flashback) Mata
    It'll be a late night,
    so head to sleep without me.
[11:08] (Flashback) Ota
    Dear?
[11:10] (Flashback) Sei
    Are you Otaka-san?
[11:12] (Flashback) Ota
    Yes...
[11:15] (Flashback) Sei
    I have a message for you, from Matahachi.
[11:21] (Flashback) Ota
    Matahachi-san... arrested?
[11:25] (Flashback) Sei
    I know this might be hard to accept,
[11:28] (Flashback) Sei
    but he's been a thief for quite some time.
[11:32] (Flashback) Ota
    Liar!
[11:38] (Flashback) Sei
    I understand.
SIGN    Otaka
[11:42] (Flashback) Sei
    When you feel ready, please read this.
[11:50] (Flashback) Sei
    I'm an old friend of Matahachi's.
[11:53] (Flashback) Sei
    He left this with me just in
    case something happened to him.
[11:58] (Flashback) Sei
    This, too.
[12:05] (Flashback) Sei
    Forgive me.
[12:06] (Flashback) Sei
    It's all my fault.
[12:08] (Flashback) Sei
    I promise I'll make this right.
[12:11] (Flashback) Sei
    Please be strong and wait for his return.
[12:18] Oma
    Matahachi's letter said he only
    had to pull one more job
[12:23] ---
    to repay an obligation to someone he owed.
[12:28] Oma
    And that if something were to happen to him,
[12:30] ---
    to take care of their child.
[12:35] Koy
    I have an idea.
[12:37] Koy
    I just need a few days.
[12:40] Koy
    Don't tell the chief, will you?
[12:43] Oma
    But...
[12:45] Koy
    What I'm about to do could cost me my life.

[12:59] Koy
    Shikadome no Matahachi.
[13:02] Koy
    I have a private matter to discuss with you.
[13:07] Koy
    The truth is, I saw your wife
    trying to kill herself,
[13:11] ---
    and I saved her.
[13:14] Koy
    It feels like fate, of a sort.
[13:18] Koy
    Do you believe me?
[13:23] Koy
    Seigoro brought Otaka your letter.
[13:27] Koy
    Otaka was heartbroken by
    learning you were a thief.
[13:33] Koy
    You wrote that letter and
    gave her money to atone,
[13:38] Koy
    but I don't think your feelings got through.
[13:40] Mata
    Wh-Where is Seigoro-dono?
[13:44] Koy
    He went on a journey looking
    for someone, I heard.
[13:51] Koy
    Otaka is currently in a Shamo chicken
    restaurant in Honjo called Gotetsu.
[13:57] Koy
    Matahachi...
[13:59] Koy
    If you want to see her, I'll let you.
[14:03] Koy
    But you have to come back here before dawn.
[14:08] Koy
    I'll go with you.
[14:10] Koy
    In exchange...
[14:12] Mata
    You want me to tell you
    where my escaped partner is?
[14:15] Koy
    Yes.
[14:17] Mata
    You're a cruel man.
[14:20] Koy
    Don't be absurd. You killed two men.
[14:23] Mata
    No! It wasn't me!
[14:26] Koy
    I know you didn't do it yourself.
[14:29] Koy
    But if you cover for the person who did it,
[14:33] Koy
    you're complicit.
[14:38] Koy
    Well?
[14:39] ---
    Decide now.
[14:41] Koy
    Do you want to see your wife or not?
[14:45] Mata
    But... do you have the authority for this?
[14:50] Koy
    I said it was personal business.
[14:53] Mat
    Your master is "Oni no Heizo."
[14:56] Mat
    Won't this cause trouble for you later?
[14:59] Koy
    I don't care what happens to me.
[15:01] Koy
    I'm far more troubled knowing your
    murderous partner is still out there.
[15:08] Mata
    Sir...
[15:10] Mata
    I'll accept your offer.
[15:13] Mata
    Let me see my wife.
[15:17] Koy
    Very well.
[15:18] Koy
    So where is your comrade,
    Amabata no Monzaburo?
[15:23] Mata
    I'll tell you after I see Otaka.
[15:31] Chu
    E-Emergency!
[15:38] Hei
    What is the meaning of this?
[15:40] Chu
    It appears Koyanagi-dono
    let Matahachi escape.
[15:45] Saji
    What was he thinking?
[15:52] Saka
    What's going on?
[15:53] Hei
    Remain calm.
[15:54] Saj
    Let's send pursuers at once.
[15:56] Hei
    Wait.
[15:57] Hei
    Don't tell anyone about this.
[16:00] Hei
    We can't let word get out.
[16:02] Saj
    But...
[16:03] Hei
    I'll take the blame myself.
[16:13] Koy
    Matahachi...
[16:15] Koy
    That bridge there.
[16:18] Koy
    That's where she tried to kill herself.
[16:25] Mata
    I'm sorry!

    You...
SIGN    Arson & Theft Department
[16:52] Koy
    Forgive me.
[16:55] Hei
    If you have something to say, say it.
[16:59] Koy
    I don't.
[17:04] Hei
    Sajima...
[17:05] Hei
    Throw him in a cell.
[17:07] Saj
    Sir...
[17:14] Oma
    Please forgive me.
[17:16] Hei
    He saved Matahachi's wife and child on the
    way back from visiting his wife's grave?
[17:22] Oma
    Yes.
[17:24] Oma
    Koyanagi-sama believed
    it was fate of some kind.
[17:29] Hei
    But Matahachi never appeared at the Gotetsu?
[17:33] Oma
    No, sir.
[17:34] Oma
    I didn't see anyone
    matching that description.
[17:38] Hei
    I see.
[17:40] Hei
    So he never saw Otaka.
SIGN    Reject Evil, Seek Truth
[17:47] Hei
    Koyanagi...
[17:48] Hei
    Do you realize what you've done?
[17:51] Koy
    Yes.
[17:52] Hei
    Why would you do something so foolish?
[17:56] Koy
    I am sorry.
[17:59] Hei
    That's all you have to say?
[18:03] Koy
    Yes, sir.
[18:06] Hei
    Very well.
[18:09] Man
    He let a thief escape with
    no consequences at all?
[18:13] Man
    Just what is the chief thinking?
[18:42] Chu
    No inquiry since then,
    and Koyanagi-san's said nothing.
[18:48] Saji
    What's the chief thinking?
[18:51] Saji
    It's been six months since then.
[19:01] Hei
    Sit up.
[19:05] Hei
    It's been a while, hasn't it?
[19:07] Hei
    The morning glories are blooming outside.
[19:14] Hei
    Koyanagi...
[19:16] Hei
    I can't put off your punishment much longer.
[19:21] Hei
    You really have nothing to say?
[19:28] Koy
    Chief...
[19:30] Chu
    Chief!
[19:33] Hei
    What is it?
[19:35] Chu
    Matahachi...
[19:36] ---
    He's back!
[19:38] Hei
    What?
[19:40] Koy
    Did he bring something with him?
[19:55] Hei
    Who is that?
[19:57] Mata
    Amabata no Monzaburo.
[20:03] Hei
    The escaped partner?
[20:05] Mata
    Yes!
[20:07] Mata
    Hasegawa-sama!
[20:08] Mata
    Master Koyanagi's done nothing wrong!
[20:11] Mata
    I planned this all myself!
[20:14] Mata
    It's entirely my doing!
[20:16] Mata
    Please, please forgive Master Koyanagi!
[20:24] Hei
    You people, I swear.
[20:28] Hei
    You're all hopeless.
[20:36] Hei
    Koyanagi...
[20:39] Hei
    I'm sure you're a bit out of shape,
[20:41] Hei
    but are you ready to get back to work?
[20:46] Koy
    You're certain?
[20:50] Hei
    Listen, everyone!
[20:52] Hei
    I don't care if any of
    you do what Koyanagi did.
[20:55] Hei
    But if you fail, you'd better
    be prepared to kill yourselves.
[21:03] Hei
    Just like he was.
[21:07] Hei
    Of course, I'll join you then.
[21:14] Tat
    So Father knew from the start?
[21:18] Hei
    I guess Koyanagi and Matahachi
    were a perfect match,
[21:22] Hei
    despite never having met before.
[21:24] Tat
    Honestly...
[21:26] Tat
    Who'd be happy to be a
    perfect match with a thief?
[21:31] Hei
    Koyanagi and Matahachi are a real hopeless pair,
     the sort that's rare to see these days.
[21:39] Hisa
    What's the matter with you?
[21:42] Tat
    I wonder if Koyanagi'll
    be back to the dojo soon.
[21:47] Tat
    I sure hope not.
[21:49] Hei
    He might be even more energetic than before.
[21:52] Hisa
    You really must try to get into shape.
[21:55] Tat
    C'mon...
[21:58] Tat
    I hope he gets hung up on
    some beautiful widow soon.
[22:02] Hisa
    Really!
[22:03] Hei
    You're hopeless in a different way.
