[00:04] Seigi
    "Did you cross the sea, too?"
[00:08] Seigi
    The sea... A blue gemstone? An aquamarine?
[00:13] Seigi
    No, didn't Richard say...
[00:16] Richard
    It means "the blue that came
    from beyond the sea."
[00:21] Seigi
    That was...
[00:26] Richard
    It's sometimes called ultramarine.
[00:28] Seigi
    Lapis lazuli!
[00:31] Seigi
    Here it is! This is it.
[00:44] Jeffrey
    Nakata-kun?
[00:56] Seigi
    It's here.
SIGN    Episode 10
    The Lapis Lazuli of Guidance
[02:38] Seigi
    It's inlaid with lapis lazuli on all sides...
[02:41] Seigi
    The Standard of Ur.
[02:50] Richard
    You fool.
[02:51] Seigi
    Richard!
[02:54] Richard
    I'll lecture you later.
[03:09] Richard
    Airport, please.
[03:15] Richard
    What are you thinking?
[03:18] Seigi
    Sorry.
[03:20] Richard
    I didn't ask for an apology.
[03:21] Seigi
    Well, I'm really, truly sorry!
[03:24] Driver
    Hey, calm down. Are you all right?
[03:27] Richard
    Oh, pardon me.
[03:31] Richard
    Seigi?
[03:33] Richard
    Seigi, what's wrong?
[03:42] Richard
    You're awake.
[03:44] Seigi
    Where are we?
[03:50] Richard
    Your fever seems to have come down a little.
[03:53] Seigi
    I don't remember what happened
    after we got in the taxi.
[03:56] Richard
    You began losing consciousness and
    would only say you were all right.
[04:01] Richard
    We stopped at a nearby hotel, and I was
    just thinking about calling a doctor.
[04:06] Seigi
    Really, I'm fine now.
[04:09] Richard
    Yes, you've said that a hundred times.
[04:11] Seigi
    I'm surprised you knew we were there.
[04:14] Richard
    The photos he uploaded to social media
    were following his old walking route.
[04:20] Seigi
    Then shouldn't we hurry up
     and get out of here?
[04:23] Richard
    Stay put. You still need to rest.
[04:26] Richard
    Why are you here?
[04:28] Richard
    I paid you more than the salary you were owed.
    You should have nothing to complain about.
[04:35] Seigi
    Richard, please... Don't disappear
    on me without saying a word.
[04:41] Seigi
    When you left, I felt like
    a hole opened in my chest.
[04:46] Seigi
    I couldn't do anything.
[04:47] Richard
    There are some things that talking can't fix.
[04:51] Seigi
    You didn't have to tell me why.
[04:53] Seigi
    Just that you were going to London.
[04:55] Richard
    Why would I need to tell you that?
[04:58] Seigi
    Why?
[05:00] Seigi
    Just like you've done for me,
    if you're in trouble, I...
[05:05] Richard
    It's much more useful
    for you not to be here.
[05:08] Richard
    Go home.
[05:10] Seigi
    Trying to be too good will destroy you.
[05:14] Richard
    I could say the same to you.
[05:17] Seigi
    Why did he leave that will, anyway?
[05:21] Seigi
    Surely it didn't have to be so mysterious.
[05:23] Richard
    Perhaps there's no distinct
    reason behind the malice.
[05:27] Richard
    I suppose he was displeased with everything.
[05:30] Richard
    His son running away,
    the death of his family...
[05:34] Richard
    Perhaps it was spite that made
    the seventh Count Claremont
[05:37] Richard
    want to restore the purity
    of his family bloodline.
[05:42] Seigi
    And you fought with Jeffrey and broke
    up with your boyfriend because of it?
[05:50] Richard
    What?
[05:51] Seigi
    What?
[05:53] Richard
    I've never had a male lover. Okay?
[05:58] Seigi
    Okay...
[06:01] Richard
    It seems you're confused,
    but she was a Turkish Englishwoman.
[06:08] Seigi
    I see.
[06:10] Seigi
    So what are you going to do now?
[06:13] Richard
    I have no obligation to honor the
    hatred of a man who died alone.
[06:18] Richard
    I will continue to run for as long as I must.
[06:23] Seigi
    Run?
[06:24] Richard
    It's what I've done for four years.
[06:27] Richard
    I'm used to solitude.
[06:29] Richard
    Once you've recovered,
    you'll go to the airport
[06:32] Richard
    and take the earliest flight back to Tokyo.
[06:35] Richard
    Understood?
[06:36] Seigi
    And then you'll vanish from my life forever?
[06:40] Seigi
    You still haven't responded to my request.
[06:52] Richard
    Seigi...
[06:54] Seigi
    I crossed the ocean to get here, too.
[06:57] Seigi
    I'm surprised you thought I'd
    figure out that meant lapis lazuli.
[07:00] Richard
    If you'd forgotten, then that's
    all it would've meant to you.
[07:04] Seigi
    Richard, I—
[07:05] Richard
    Go home.
[07:07] Richard
    A student's job is to study.
[07:10] Richard
    You're far too young to be sticking
    your nose into the affairs of adults.
[07:13] Seigi
    You really are...
[07:20] Henry
    Are you there? Do you hear me?
[07:24] Richard
    Henry.
[07:25] Seigi
    Huh?
[07:28] Seigi
    What's that?
[07:37] Seigi
    What's this doing here?
[07:42] Jeffrey
    Are you there, Nakata-kun? It's Jeffrey.
[07:46] Jeffrey
    It seems my phone ended up
    in your bag somehow.
[07:51] Jeffrey
    But thanks to its GPS functionality,
    I was able to track it down.
[07:56] Seigi
    Track?
[07:57] Jeffrey
    My lawyer contacted me.
[08:00] Jeffrey
    To cut to the chase, you weren't
    on the unacceptable list.
[08:05] Seigi
    What? That means...
[08:07] Jeffrey
    You're a viable marriage candidate.
[08:09] Jeffrey
    Congratulations!
[08:11] Jeffrey
    So, Nakata-kun, will you help me?
[08:14] Richard
    I warned you to stay out of my life!
[08:21] Richard
    They're only interested
    in inheriting the diamond.
[08:25] Richard
    You don't need to listen to them.
[08:33] Richard
    Seigi, we'll leave through the balcony.
[08:36] Henry
    Mr. Nakata... Please, save Richard.
[08:40] Henry
    Please...
[08:43] Richard
    The nonsense of a ghost.
    Don't listen to him.
[08:46] Seigi
    But...
[09:05] Richard
    Seigi!
[09:13] Seigi
    Henry?
[09:15] Henry
    Yes... Please save Richard.
[09:24] Jeffrey
    Harry...
[09:25] Jeffrey
    Nakata-kun, have you considered my offer?
[09:28] Richard
    Seigi is just an employee.
    Don't get him involved.
[09:33] Seigi
    I'll help you.
[09:36] Jeffrey
    That's great.
[09:37] Richard
    Seigi!
[09:39] Seigi
    So what do I have to do,
    and how much are you paying me for it?
[09:57] Jeffrey
    My lawyer confirmed that forming a
    civil partnership with an Asian person
[10:04] Jeffrey
    wasn't prohibited by the list.
[10:06] Seigi
    A civil partnership?
[10:08] Jeffrey
    It's a legally recognized partnership
    between a same-sex couple,
[10:11] Jeffrey
    equivalent to a heterosexual marriage.
[10:15] Seigi
    Won't we need to register?
[10:17] Jeffrey
    Don't worry. With both Richard
    and his potential spouse present,
[10:21] Jeffrey
    the diamond will be released.
[10:23] Jeffrey
    Then, once you're married, it'll be all yours.
[10:26] Jeffrey
    What do you say to splitting
    the 300 million pounds evenly?
[10:29] Seigi
    That makes about 20 billion yen...
[10:31] Seigi
    It'll be taxed, won't it?
[10:33] Jeffrey
    We'll take care of that.
[10:35] Jeffrey
    You know, I think you and I are
    going to be great friends.
[10:45] Jeffrey
    You're so cold, Your Highness.
    You should look happier.
[10:50] Jeffrey
    Your lover is willing to pitch in
[10:53] Jeffrey
    to potentially free us from
    this troublesome curse.
[10:57] Seigi
    He's just being shy.
[11:52] Seigi
    Read this later.
[12:21] Richard
    Seigi! Don't do it!
[12:22] Richard
    That gemstone is—
[12:35] Jeffrey
    What happened? Nakata-kun!
[12:51] Richard
    It's a white sapphire.
[12:54] Richard
    It's not a diamond.
[12:57] Jeffrey
    It's not... a diamond?
[13:05] Seigi
    The truth behind the cursed will was
    hidden in that bundle of old letters.
[13:14] Eight
    Dear Father, I received your kindness.
[13:19] Eight
    My heart will always be with you.
[13:21] Eight
    From Sri Lanka, with Leah.
[13:24] Seven
    My beloved son,
    you must not return to England.
[13:29] Seven
    If you come home with Leah,
[13:31] Seven
    the foolish white supremacists will
    inflict unbearable humiliation upon you.
[13:38] Richard
    It wasn't the seventh count who opposed
    our grandfather's marriage, but the family.
[13:45] Seigi
    Then why did he disown him?
[13:48] Richard
    Likely to deceive the family.
[13:51] Richard
    Our great-grandfather probably bought
    the sapphire pretending it was a diamond,
[13:56] Richard
    and sent his son the difference
    in price as a gift before his death.
[14:01] Richard
    At the time, this sapphire's market price
[14:03] Richard
    was probably tens of thousands of pounds.
[14:06] Jeffrey
    Not a 30-million-pound diamond,
[14:08] Jeffrey
    but a white sapphire worth only
    tens of thousands of pounds...
[14:12] Jeffrey
    So why did he leave that will?
[14:15] Richard
    It was probably his revenge
     against the racists who tried
[14:18] Richard
    to block his son's marriage.
[14:20] Jeffrey
    His revenge?
[14:22] Richard
    Originally, only their descendants
    would've been bound by the will.
[14:27] Jeffrey
    But the air raids threw everything off...
[14:31] Richard
    He who hurts another hurts himself.
[14:35] Seigi
    It's a saying that means
    if you try to harm another,
[14:38] Seigi
    you bring harm upon yourself, too.
[14:41] Richard
    It was his beloved son's descendants
    who fell into this cursed trap.
[14:46] Jeffrey
    In other words, us.
[14:58] Seigi
    Uh, I guess I'm going to the police?
[15:03] Richard
    That won't be necessary.
[15:04] Richard
    It wasn't a diamond.
[15:08] Richard
    More importantly...
[15:10] Richard
    Nakata Seigi, you don't understand anything.
[15:13] Seigi
    Huh?
[15:14] Richard
    Why did you write this?
SIGN    Pudding Recipe
[15:19] Seigi
    It's the recipe for the pudding
    I always made for you.
[15:23] Richard
    Why give that to me?
[15:26] Richard
    Allow me to answer for you.
[15:29] Richard
    You learned working at Étranger
[15:32] Richard
    that diamonds are hard, but easily
    broken with directional pressure.
[15:39] Richard
    In order to nullify the will,
    you planned to shatter the diamond,
[15:43] Richard
    shoulder the blame,
    and disappear from my life.
[15:47] Richard
    Am I wrong?
[15:49] Seigi
    I made up my mind yesterday...
[15:51] Seigi
    Whoever's with you can make pudding for you.
[15:55] Richard
    Do you take me for a man who'd presume
    on your kindness and then abandon you?
[16:01] Richard
    Did you think that would make me happy?
[16:03] Richard
    Behave yourself.
[16:07] Richard
    You once said you were afraid of
    disappointing your loved ones
[16:10] Richard
    because you couldn't do anything for them.
[16:13] Richard
    When you talk of a "hero of justice,"
[16:16] Richard
    you mean a useful tool to
    be used in a time of need.
[16:20] Richard
    In other words, the deep-seated
    reason for your reckless behavior
[16:25] Richard
    is that sense of powerlessness
    that torments you.
[16:32] Richard
    The last time we met, I told you
[16:34] Richard
    that you didn't need to be
    a hero of justice anymore.
[16:38] Richard
    Your desire to be useful is admirable,
[16:42] Richard
    but Seigi, your life belongs to you.
[16:49] Richard
    I don't want you to become a useful tool.
[16:53] Richard
    I want you to remain my
    dear friend Nakata Seigi.
[16:57] Richard
    The people who love you all
    want you to be happy, Seigi.
[17:04] Richard
    And it goes without saying
    that I'm one of those people.
[17:27] Jeffrey
    Are you hungry?
[17:31] Seigi
    Oh, no.
[17:33] Seigi
    I'm leaving tomorrow,
[17:35] Seigi
    so I'm making pudding to apologize
    to Richard and thank him.
[17:38] Jeffrey
    Pudding?
[17:39] Jeffrey
    Oh, that brings back memories.
[17:42] Jeffrey
    Our governess used to make it for us.
[17:45] Seigi
    Governess?
[17:47] Jeffrey
    Our tutor. She'd make it for us as a reward.
[17:51] Seigi
    I see.
[17:53] Jeffrey
    Anyway, you got me.
[17:56] Jeffrey
    The power of love is incredible, Nakata-kun.
[18:00] Jeffrey
    You're quite the Japanese man.
[18:03] Jeffrey
    You fooled a native from
    the country of Shakespeare.
[18:07] Seigi
    Oh, right, that...
[18:10] Jeffrey
    But if you'd actually broken the diamond,
[18:13] Jeffrey
    he probably would've spent
    the rest of his life atoning to you,
[18:17] Jeffrey
    or even said he'd prefer
    to bear the blame with you.
[18:21] Seigi
    I wouldn't want him to do that.
[18:23] Jeffrey
    I see.
[18:25] Jeffrey
    I actually wanted to apologize.
[18:27] Jeffrey
    I'm sorry, Nakata-kun.
[18:30] Seigi
    I also tried to use you, you know.
[18:34] Jeffrey
    I'm glad Richard has you.
[18:36] Jeffrey
    He doesn't need anyone other
    than me making him unhappy.
[18:40] Seigi
    It doesn't have to be right away,
    but please talk to Richard.
[19:19] (Flashback) Tomoe
    Well done. Have some pudding.
[19:37] Henry
    The governess's pudding?
[19:40] Richard
    I've had it almost a hundred times.
[19:44] Richard
    So this time, I offer some to you...
[19:47] Richard
    Though I would honestly prefer not to.
[19:52] Richard
    What I desire now is to see you well.
[20:00] Richard
    Let's eat, Harry and Jeff.
[20:06] Jeffrey
    Thanks, Ricky.
[20:16] Richard
    This is your ticket for today.
[20:18] Seigi
    So, what are you going to do once
    everything with the inheritance is settled?
[20:23] Richard
    I haven't decided yet.
[20:25] Seigi
    I see.
[20:30] Seigi
    That's...
[20:32] Richard
    I want you to hold on to this white sapphire.
[20:36] Seigi
    What? But...
[20:37] Richard
    There's too much history wrapped up inside it.
[20:40] Richard
    I'd like you to keep it and drive that out.
[20:45] Richard
    I've already spoken with my family.
[20:52] Seigi
    It's not fair if I'm the only
    one getting something.
[20:55] Seigi
    I want you to have this.
[20:59] Richard
    I can't accept that.
    It belonged to your grandmother.
[21:02] Seigi
    Then let's do this:
[21:04] Seigi
    when I return your sapphire to you,
    you can return this to me.
[21:10] Richard
    Very well.
[21:12] Richard
    Then let's make it the last
    time you and I meet.
[21:15] Seigi
    What?
[21:16] Richard
    As long as we have these gemstones,
[21:20] Richard
    whether we become civil
    servants or mafia bosses,
[21:23] Richard
    get married or fall ill,
[21:26] Richard
    we must always remain in touch.
[21:30] Richard
    Even if it's decades from now.
[21:35] Seigi
    Got it.
[23:24] Seigi
    Saul-san, I bought red bean jelly.
[23:29] Richard
    Good morning, Seigi.
[23:34] Richard
    You're here rather early.
