[00:33] Sato
    What?
[00:38] Sato
    What? Seriously?
[00:42] Rena
    Sato.
[00:43] Sato
    Ow!
[00:45] Sato
    Rena-san.
[00:46] Rena
    What are you doing hanging around here?
[00:48] Sato
    I won two bonus drinks
    in a row for four total.
[00:52] Rena
    Why are you buying so many when we
    won't be able to use the bathroom?
[00:54] Sato
    Oh, I couldn't drink this many regardless.
[00:57] Sato
    Wait, there's no bathroom?
    Not even a convenience store?
[00:59] Rena
    Nothing. It's just bars and love hotels.
[01:03] Rena
    Come on. What are you doing?
[01:09] Sato
    Hot!
[01:10] Sato
    That's hot.
[01:13] Sato
    Anyway, I'm surprised a big-time banker
    would visit an out-of-the-way place like this.
[01:18] Rena
    This whole area's got a shady history.
[01:20] Rena
    A few people even turned up dead
    since the trouble with land sharks.
[01:22] Sato
    What?
[01:24] Rena
    According to his wife, he frequently
    meets a woman around here
[01:28] Rena
    because he works at the branch nearby.
[01:30] Rena
    We're going to film evidence
    of them entering the love hotel,
[01:34] Rena
    spending the night, and coming
    out together in the morning.
[01:39] Sato
    But isn't it possible that
    they'll arrive separately?
[01:42] Rena
    Well, yeah. We'll need to keep the camera
    recording for at least an hour for insurance.
[01:47] Sato
    What? Why?
[01:50] Rena
    If their stay is short, they might
    not have gotten intimate.
[01:54] Sato
    That's not gonna happen.
[01:55] Rena
    In any case, we have two
    options in situations like these.
[01:59] Rena
    We can keep filming from the car,
    or we can wait for them in the lounge.
[02:04] Rena
    Well, you can.
[02:05] Sato
    I've never been in one of
    those establishments before.
[02:11] Rena
    Yeah, that's not my problem.
[02:12] Sato
    Look this way.
[02:13] Rena
    Cut it out.
[02:16] Big Daimon
    What are you doing here?
[02:19] Rena
    Nothing in particular.
[02:22] Big Daimon
    You can't be doing "nothing."
[02:24] Big Daimon
    A couple like you must be up to something.
[02:27] Big Daimon
    Is this a deal or something?
[02:30] Big Daimon
    You're not hiding syringes
    or anything like that, are you?
[02:33] Rena
    Where'd this come from?
    We'll leave, okay?
[02:37] Big Daimon
    Hey, wait. You in the back.
[02:38] Big Daimon
    What is that? Is that a camera?
[02:41] Big Daimon
    You're not secretly
    photographing people, are you?
[02:43] Sato
    No, we're just capturing memories.
[02:47] Big Daimon
    Then show me what you've got on there.
[02:49] Sato
    Actually, uh… we're bound by confidentiality.
[02:52] Big Daimon
    If you can't show me,
    that means you're guilty!
[02:54] Big Daimon
    You, out of the car.
[02:56] Big Daimon
    Come on!
[02:59] Sato
    Ow!
[03:00] Big Daimon
    Show me.
[03:01] Sato
    I can't.
[03:02] Big Daimon
    If you're just capturing memories,
    there's no problem.
[03:03] Sato
    I can't show you.
[03:04] Big Daimon
    Show me, dammit.
    Just show me the damn pictures.
[03:06] Sato
    Rena-san, help me.
[03:06] Big Daimon
    Show me.
[03:07] Sato
    I really can't.
[03:08] Big Daimon
    Hey, what are you doing?
[03:09] Big Daimon
    Are you filming an authoritarian cop
    so you can post the video online, huh?
[03:13] Big Daimon
    Hey.
[03:19] Rena
    Come on, man. It's your first day.
[03:25] Rena
    Are you even trying? Depending
    on how your training period goes…
[03:31] Sato
    While I was practicing taking pictures...
[03:35] Rena
    The only thing around here is stray cats.
[03:37] Sato
    Actually, I managed to get
    a proper private eye kind of photo.
[03:41] Sato
    A young woman entering a sketchy multi-use
    building wearing a hat and sunglasses.
[03:46] Sato
    She's gotta be a celebrity.
[03:48] Rena
    That's the purview of paparazzi,
    not private eyes.
[03:54] Sato
    They're definitely asleep.
[03:56] Sato
    Even though it's a weekday,
    they're staying overnight.
[03:58] Rena
    We missed our best shot because of you.
[04:01] Rena
    You'd better at least get
    a picture of them leaving.
[04:04] Sato
    I didn't think I'd be questioned
    by the police on my first day.
[04:10] Sato
    Why don't we call it quits for today?
[04:12] Rena
    Why did you interview with our agency?
[04:14] Sato
    Because it's cool.
[04:16] Sato
    I grew up watching anime.
    You know, Detective What's-His-Name.
[04:20] Rena
    That's all?
[04:22] Sato
    No. I thought it'd make me
    popular with the ladies, too.
[04:24] Sato
    Honestly, I didn't think
    this job would be so drab.
[04:28] Sato
    I thought detectives did cool stuff.
[04:33] Sato
    Aren't detectives—
[04:34] Sato
    Wait, what?
[04:35] Sato
    Hurry, hurry, hurry.
[04:38] Rena
    Back up, backup, back up.
    Hurry, hurry, hurry.
[04:40] Banker
    You know it's not like that.
[04:43] Affair Partner
    When can I see you next?
[04:45] Rena
    Crap. They're leaving.
[04:45] Banker
    Next?
[04:47] Sato
    I'm going after them!
[04:50] Sato
    Crap!
[05:02] Sato
    We did it. We got them.
[05:05] Rena
    I can't tell if you're lucky or not.
[05:10] Rena
    Here.
[05:14] Rena
    Let's go. We got the evidence.
[05:18] Sato
    I'll write up a report
    as soon as I get home.
[05:20] Rena
    No. You can't take that out of the office,
    so you'll have to write it there.
[05:25] Sato
    This is huge for my first day.
    I can't sit still!
[05:30] Sato
    Let's have a toast. Would you like
    coffee or soda? I'll go buy some.
[05:33] Rena
    Why are those my options?
[05:40] Ibusuki
    Hello, this is Ibusuki. Please respond.
[05:42] Rena
    Sorry, boss. Were you asleep?
[05:46] Ibusuki
    Oh. It's you, Rena.
[05:49] Rena
    We just finished.
[05:50] Ibusuki
    Did you get the pictures?
[05:53] Rena
    Yes, just now.
[05:55] Ibusuki
    How's he doing?
[05:58] Ibusuki
    Sato, was it?
[06:00] Rena
    His instincts are miserable,
    but he seems lucky.
[06:04] Ibusuki
    I see. That's a relief.
[06:19] Sato
    What?
[06:20] Sato
    Seriously? Lucky me.
[06:23] Dobu
    Hey.
[06:30] Sato
    Oh, I'm sorry. I keep
    winning free drinks today.
[06:33] Dobu
    I don't recognize you.
[06:35] Sato
    What?
[06:36] Dobu
    That's a pretty nice camera
    you've got there.
[06:38] Sato
    Oh, yes.
[06:40] Dobu
    Who are you a reporter for?
[06:43] Sato
    Actually, I don't work for a magazine.
    I'm a private eye.
[06:46] Dobu
    Then what are you investigating?
[06:49] Sato
    I have a duty to confidentiality.
[06:51] Dobu
    Don't worry. I won't tell anyone.
[06:54] Sato
    Actually, I doubt it has
    anything to do with you.
[06:58] Sato
    I was asked to investigate a banker's affair.
[07:01] Dobu
    Yeah? That's great!
[07:05] Sato
    No, stop! There isn't anything on here.
[07:08] Dobu
    Oh, yeah?
[07:09] Sato
    Yes.
[07:12] Sato
    In fact, why should I give you
    my camera, anyway?
[07:16] Sato
    Did the banker hire you?
[07:17] Sato
    If you have a legitimate
    reason, let's hear it—
[07:24] Dobu
    I was never doing this
    for a legitimate reason.
[07:28] Sato
    The pictures are on this.
[07:31] Dobu
    What? They're on this thing?
[07:46] Dobu
    Our generation is physical, you know?
[07:50] Sato
    My agency just provided me
    with that. Hey, wait.
[07:55] Dobu
    You haven't made any copies
    or sent these anywhere, have you?
[07:59] Sato
    I wish I had.
[08:02] Dobu
    You know what'll happen
    if I find out you have later, right?

[08:29] Taeko
    Here you are.
[08:33] Taeko
    Can I get you a beer—no, an oolong tea?
[08:36] Rena
    Yes, please.
[08:37] Sato
    Thank you. There weren't any other
    shops around, so we had to come here.
[08:43] Rena
    I'm really sorry about this.
    He doesn't have a shred of tact.
[08:48] Rena
    We appreciate you opening your shop for us.
[08:53] Sato
    Oh, right. You can't drink.
[08:56] Rena
    I'm surprised you can.
[08:59] Rena
    How do you know my age, anyway?
[09:02] Sato
    You're 19, right? The boss told me.
[09:04] Taeko
    Even kids as young as you
    work as private eyes, huh?
[09:08] Taeko
    It's so exciting, isn't it?
    To be suddenly attacked by a thug.
[09:13] Taeko
    I love that sort of thing.
[09:15] Rena
    He's a rookie who just started today.
    I wouldn't call him a private eye yet.
[09:20] Rena
    And don't give personal information
    out to people you just met.
[09:23] Rena
    You're not an amateur.
[09:25] Rena
    Why do you think you were hired?
[09:28] Sato
    Probably my interview.
[09:30] Sato
    I'm pretty confident about what I said.
[09:33] Sato
    Thank you.
[09:35] Rena
    There was a written test, right?
[09:37] Sato
    Yeah, the 50 two-choice questions?
[09:39] Rena
    You got all of them wrong.
[09:44] Rena
    You were hired because the boss said
    he'd never seen anything like it.
[09:50] Rena
    Have some self-awareness.
[09:54] Taeko
    Well, Mr. Unreliable Detective,
[09:57] Taeko
    have you ever been hired
    to investigate anything really crazy?
[10:00] Taeko
    Like a murder, or something
    else you'd see in a movie.
[10:03] Rena
    We have a duty of confidentiality.
[10:05] Taeko
    Well, shucks. I thought I'd get
    to hear some juicy gossip.
[10:08] Sato
    You don't have any stories like that?
[10:09] Rena
    Why are you asking, too?
[10:12] Sato
    U-Um...
[10:15] Sato
    Ma'am, is there anything
    you're curious about?
[10:18] Sato
    Like someone or something
    you'd like to have investigated.
[10:22] Taeko
    Call me Taeko.
[10:25] Taeko
    I'm not sure if I should say this, but a few
    of my regulars are curious people.
[10:32] Sato
    Your regulars?
[10:34] Sato
    You mean this place is surprisingly popular?
[10:36] Taeko
    If it weren't, I would've
    closed shop a long time ago.
[10:39] Sato
    Oh, right.
[10:40] Taeko
    All the shops around here have been closing.
    The neighborhood keeps shrinking.
[10:45] Taeko
    But some people just keep coming.
[10:48] Rena
    So, which regular are you most curious about?
[10:52] Taeko
    I'm not sure how to describe him.
[10:57] Taeko
    I'd like to know what he spends his
     time doing. How does he see the world?
[11:03] Taeko
    He's just such an odd person.
[11:05] Sato
    If he's a regular, why not ask him yourself?
[11:07] Taeko
    That's the thing. I wish I could, but I can't.
[11:11] Taeko
    Just between us, I feel like
    there's a hidden side to him.
[11:16] Taeko
    He never wants to talk about his past.
[11:24] Rena
    Like we said, we're private eyes.
[11:30] Rena
    If you tell us more about him,
    we'll investigate whatever you want.
[11:35] Taeko
    Odokawa-san. His given name is Hiroshi.
[11:41] Taeko
    Born year of the tiger, so I think he's 41.
[11:45] Sato
    Odokawa Hiroshi.
    Year of the tiger, 41 years old.
[11:46] Rena
    You don't need to repeat it.

    No, wait—

    Call us if anything else comes up!
[12:15] Otani
    What?
[12:24] Rena
    I'm really sorry. I screwed up.
[12:27] Ibusuki
    I guess you weren't ready to lead.
[12:30] Sato
    I'm sorry. It's my fault.
[12:33] Sato
    I promise I'll make up for it
    on the next job.
[12:36] Ibusuki
    Well, that background check into
    what's-his-name sounds perfect for training.
[12:43] Ibusuki
    Then we'll call it even.
[12:47] Sato
    Yes, sir.
[13:17] Sato
    Here he comes.
[13:20] Sato
    At a glance, he seems like your typical
    slightly creepy but ordinary middle-aged guy.
[13:25] Rena
    You're contradicting yourself, but yeah.
[14:17] Sato
    He lives a totally boring, ordinary life.
[14:21] Rena
    Well, yeah. But the client
    might still find it remarkable.
[14:30] Sato
    We're back.
[14:31] Rena
    Good work out there.
[14:32] Otani
    Welcome back.
[14:34] Sato
    The job's going smoothly.
[14:39] Sato
    Huh? Are you still mad, boss?
[14:42] Ibusuki
    No. A new job came in.
[14:45] Ibusuki
    Rather, an acquaintance's daughter
    hasn't been home in two days.
[14:48] Ibusuki
    He can't get in touch with her, either.
[14:49] Sato
    What? A runaway?
[14:51] Ibusuki
    She said she'd be back home soon.
[14:55] Ibusuki
    She's just a high school student.
[14:57] Ibusuki
    Something might've happened to her.
[14:59] Sato
    What? Then we should start
    looking for her right away,
[15:02] Sato
    instead of wasting time on
    this taxi driver's biography.
[15:05] Ibusuki
    Do your own job.
[15:12] Talent B
    That's right. I'm still single.

    seen you so quiet before.
[15:32] Manager
    They said they'd come to check on—
    I mean, say hello later.

    What's wrong? How about something sweet?

    Here. What were those idols called?

    Welcome back.

    Welcome back.

    Any developments in the missing
    high school girl case?

    It's all over the news.

    Yeah, because her life's in danger.
[17:31] Ibusuki
    The media started
    receiving information today.
[17:35] Ibusuki
    Just after 1 AM two days ago on the 4th,
[17:38] Ibusuki
    after doing some shopping at a
    convenience store, she got in a taxi.
[17:42] Rena
    Have they identified the taxi?
[17:45] Ibusuki
    Apparently the clerk remembered the number.
[17:48] Sato
    Huh? After seeing it only once and briefly?
[17:50] Ibusuki
    It happened to be their birthday, 1022.

    What?

    Excuse us.

    So?

    We need a remote monitoring

    What? Hold on. That's totally illegal.
[19:29] Sekido
    Where?

[19:40] Sekido
    It's a common model.
[19:41] Rena
    You'll install it, won't you?
[19:43] Sekido
    If you pay for it.
[19:46] Rena
    You'll be paid tomorrow.
[19:47] Sekido
    No can do. Equator operates 24 hours
    a day, but that's just the sauna.

    How long will it take?

    I'm busy. Give me three days.

    Make it one.

    1.5 days, or pay a rush late night surcharge.

    How much?

    How long will it take?
[20:31] Sekido
    About seven or eight minutes.
[20:33] Rena
    Seven or eight minutes?
[20:35] Sekido
    Yeah.
[20:46] Odokawa
    What is it?
[20:48] Odokawa
    Are you hungry?
[20:51] Odokawa
    Hold on.
[20:58] Rena
    Okay, all good.
[21:04] Sekido
    That should do it.
[21:08] Odokawa
    Fine. I'll go buy you something.
    Stay put and be good.
[21:20] Sato
    Crap, crap, crap.
[21:22] Sato
    Odokawa's coming, Odokawa's
    coming, Odokawa's coming!
[21:26] Sato
    Crap, crap, crap!
[21:27] Sato
    Hurry, hurry, hurry!
[21:33] Rena
    Was he really talking to someone?
[21:36] Sato
    Yeah. He even ominously told them
    to “stay put and be good.”
[21:42] Sato
    Anyway, I could imagine him kidnapping
    and holding someone as cute as her
[21:48] Sato
    if she happened to get in his taxi.
[21:51] Rena
    He may be involved, but kidnapping
     and false imprisonment?
[21:56] Sato
    No, you're right. I guess not.
[22:00] Rena
    Did you call her cute?
[22:04] Sato
    Did I say that?
[22:06] Rena
    Yeah, didn't you just say that?
[22:11] Rena
    No, you definitely did.
[22:13] Sato
    What?
[22:13] Rena
    Her photo hasn't appeared on the news yet.
[22:16] Rena
    Why'd you say that?
[22:17] Sato
    I didn't say that.
[22:18] Rena
    No, you did.
[22:21] Sato
    What? Really?
[22:23] Rena
    Yeah.
[22:28] Sato
    I caught a glimpse of the boss' documents.
[22:30] Rena
    I knew it.
[22:31] Sato
    They were out in the open on his desk.
[22:35] Sato
    Hold on.
[22:37] Rena
    Hey.
[22:38] Sato
    Where'd they go?
[22:39] Rena
    Don't go through his stuff.
[22:40] Sato
    This is it.
[22:42] Rena
    Don't.
[22:43] Sato
    Wait, wait, wait.
[22:45] Sato
    Look at this Buddha.
[22:46] Sato
    Tada! A Buddha.
[22:49] Rena
    Wait a minute.
[22:54] Rena
    Mitsuya?
[22:56] Rena
    This is Yuki.
[22:59] Rena
    Mitsuya-san.
SIGN    Next Time
[23:00] Wadagaki
    Have we met?
[23:02] Donraku
    Why'd you end the investigation?
[23:04] Driver A
    Rumor is he's done a lot of gray work.
[23:06] Rena
    He's probably never paid
    for his mistakes before.
[23:08] Homeless
    You should stay away from them.
[23:10] Sato
    You're cute, too, Rena-san.
SIGN    This show is a work of fiction.
[23:11] Rena
    What?
[23:12] Odokawa
    I told you, I won't work for you.
