Peridot of Blessings
SIGN Inamura
[02:01] Chieko
Right this way.
[02:02] Seigi
Sorry for making you do this.
[02:04] Chieko
What are you talking about?
[02:06] Chieko
If I didn't at least treat you to some tea,
the gods would surely punish me.

[02:26] Chieko
Thank you for waiting.
[02:35] Chieko
Do you like Hugo?
[02:38] Seigi
I'm reading that right now
on a recommendation.
[02:41] Seigi
I just got to the part where
he steals the silverware.
[02:44] Seigi
I feel really bad for the protagonist.
[02:48] Chieko
No one who feels sorry for Jean Valjean
before his encounter with the bishop
[02:53] Chieko
is a bad person.
[02:54] Seigi
Huh?
[02:56] Richard
No one who feels sorry for Jean Valjean
before his encounter with the bishop
[03:00] Richard
is a bad person.
[03:05] Chieko
Is there something on my face?
[03:07] Seigi
Oh, no.
[03:12] Seigi
Pudding...
[03:14] Chieko
Do young folks not like pudding?
[03:17] Seigi
No, I love it.
[03:20] Seigi
Thanks for the treat.
[03:27] Seigi
This isn't ordinary sugar, is it?
[03:30] Chieko
I'm impressed you can tell.
[03:32] Seigi
It's honey... No, black sugar?
[03:38] Chieko
Well done.
[03:39] Seigi
Huh?
[03:40] Chieko
Oh, I'm sorry. Old habits die hard.
[03:44] Chieko
Despite how I seem now,
I used to be a teacher.
[03:47] Seigi
Really?
[03:48] Chieko
I was a tutor before I became a teacher.
[03:51] Chieko
I'd always tell the children they'd done well
when I rewarded them with pudding.
[03:56] Seigi
What?
[03:58] Seigi
Um, could I ask you a strange question?
[04:02] Chieko
What is it?
[04:04] Seigi
That photo was taken in England, wasn't it?
[04:07] Chieko
Yes.
[04:08] Seigi
That's Count Claremont's residence, right?
[04:13] Seigi
Does the name "Richard"
ring a bell, by any chance?
[04:19] Chieko
Richard-san...
[04:21] Seigi
I work at Richard's shop.
[04:25] Seigi
I was just thinking it'd be an incredible
coincidence if you're Richard's governess.
[04:34] Chieko
I'll make some more tea.
[04:44] Chieko
Thank you so much for today.
I appreciate the help.
[04:48] Seigi
No, thank you for the tea and pudding.
[04:52] Chieko
Excuse me...
[04:55] Chieko
I hate to ask such a thing of a
nice young man such as yourself,
[05:01] Chieko
but please keep the fact
that we met between us.
[05:04] Seigi
What?
[05:20] Seigi
It tastes different today, doesn't it?
[05:24] Richard
I demand an explanation.
[05:26] Seigi
An explanation?
[05:28] Seigi
An explanation, huh?
[05:29] Seigi
Um... the other day, when I went
to visit my mom, Hiromi...
[05:35] Richard
Seigi.
[05:37] Seigi
I'm sorry, but I can't tell you.
[05:41] Richard
I see. So that's the only
explanation you can give...
[05:52] Richard
Come to think of it,
[05:54] Richard
I haven't told you why
I still use the name "de Vulpian."
[06:00] Seigi
Does that have anything to do with this?
[06:03] Richard
I'm searching for a Japanese woman
who once took care of me.
[06:09] Richard
I took my mother's maiden name
[06:11] Richard
so that she'd recognize me
immediately if she ever saw it.
[06:16] Richard
For three years, between
the ages of six to nine,
[06:21] Richard
I learned Japanese from her.
SIGN 22 Years Ago
[06:27] Richard
At the time, my parents were already divorced,
[06:31] Richard
and I was living with my uncle.
[06:36] (Flashback) Chieko
Full marks for both of you. Well done.
[06:40] (Flashback) Richard
Yes! We get pudding!
[06:42] (Flashback) Jeffrey
I'm going to show Mother!
[06:52] (Flashback) Chieko
Young Master Richard,
you did a very good job, too.
SIGN 3 Years Later
[07:12] (Flashback) Count
What are we going to do about Ashcroft?
[07:16] (Flashback) Chieko
Did something happen with
Young Master Richard's father?
[07:20] (Flashback) Count
He's going to reconcile with Catherine
and move to the Amazon.
[07:24] (Flashback) Chieko
The Amazon?
[07:27] (Flashback) Count
It's probably just for appearances.
[07:30] (Flashback) Count
It's easier for an entomologist to get
through immigration with a family.
[07:36] (Flashback) Chieko
Then will Young Master Richard
be going to the Amazon, as well?
[07:39] (Flashback) Count
Indeed.
[07:41] (Flashback) Chieko
But if the family will all be together,
[07:43] (Flashback) Chieko
that's a great thing for him.
[07:47] (Flashback) Count
Catherine is an actress through and through.
[07:50] (Flashback) Count
She's no mother.
[08:12] (Flashback) Catherine
Richard!
[08:13] (Flashback) Richard
Maman...
[08:15] (Flashback) Catherine
Don't call me that.
[08:17] (Flashback) Richard
I'm sorry, Catherine.
[08:20] (Flashback) Catherine
Escort me, Richard.
[08:45] (Flashback) Count
Merry Christmas.
[08:46] (Flashback) All
Merry Christmas!
[08:50] Richard
It happened on Christmas night...
[08:58] (Flashback) Count
What is it, Catherine?
[09:00] (Flashback) Catherine
It's gone... My necklace is missing!
[09:05] Richard
The piece in question was a 19th-century
antique set with a large peridot.
[09:11] Richard
It was transformable jewelry
that could be taken apart.
[09:24] (Flashback) Count
We searched everywhere
and still couldn't find it.
[09:26] (Flashback) Count
Perhaps you've just forgotten
that you left it somewhere else.
[09:30] (Flashback) Catherine
It was there when I went to rest in my room,
[09:33] (Flashback) Catherine
and when I woke up, it was gone!
[09:36] (Flashback) Catherine
Someone must've taken it.
[09:39] (Flashback) Catherine
Let me go through your belongings.
[09:43] (Flashback) Jeffrey
Here we go again...
[09:45] (Flashback) Jeffrey
The queen is on a rampage.
[09:47] (Flashback) Count
Catherine, that's enough.
[09:50] (Flashback) Richard
There aren't any thieves here!
[09:53] (Flashback) Catherine
Are you sure about that?
[09:55] (Flashback) Chieko
What?
[09:56] (Flashback) Count
You think Chieko took it?
[09:59] (Flashback) Catherine
A poor student would need the money, after all.
[10:07] (Flashback) Count
Stop this, Catherine.
[10:11] (Flashback) Catherine
My, my... Look at this.
[10:16] (Flashback) Catherine
What's my necklace's clasp
doing inside your bag?
[10:27] (Flashback) Count
It's too hasty to assume she did
it on the basis of that alone.
[10:31] (Flashback) Count
Chieko, we're all on your side.
[10:35] (Flashback) Count
If there's some explanation for this, tell us.
[10:40] (Flashback) Chieko
I...
[10:53] Richard
In the end, we never found the necklace.
[10:56] Richard
For that and other reasons,
my parents didn't reconcile...
[11:00] Richard
and that was the last I ever saw of Chieko.
[11:05] Seigi
I see.
[11:07] Richard
But I absolutely must see her again.
[11:13] Richard
Seigi, Japan has a tradition
of visiting people to thank them.
[11:19] Richard
It's considered polite to bring a gift
[11:22] Richard
to the home of someone
who has been hospitable to you.
[11:26] Richard
It's a fantastic tradition.
[11:28] Richard
Don't you agree?
[11:32] Seigi
I do.
[11:43] Seigi
I'm sorry.
[11:45] Seigi
I couldn't keep it to myself.
[11:47] Chieko
I had a feeling this would happen.
[11:50] Chieko
But as I mentioned the other day,
[11:54] Chieko
a lot happened between me
and Young Master Richard.
[11:57] Seigi
Um, I came with a message from him today.
[12:02] Chieko
A message?
[12:03] Seigi
Yes.
[12:05] Seigi
Regarding the particulars of what
happened on Christmas nineteen years ago.
[12:14] Chieko
What did Young Master Richard tell you?
[12:18] Chieko
No, I should explain myself.
[12:22] Chieko
I don't know if I did the right thing.
[12:29] Chieko
All I can say for certain is that
I hurt Young Master Richard.
[12:38] (Flashback) Jeffrey
Today is... a very... auspicious day...
SIGN 22 Years Ago
[12:43] (Flashback) Chieko
Now say your greetings in Japanese.
[12:45] (Flashback) Richard
Nice to meet you, Chieko.
[12:48] (Flashback) Richard
It's good to see you.
[12:52] (Flashback) Chieko
Well done, both of you.
[12:56] (Flashback) Chieko
Here. This is your reward.
[13:03] (Flashback) Count
The children adore you.
[13:07] (Flashback) Count
Keep up the good work.
[13:09] (Flashback) Chieko
I'll do my best not to disappoint.
[13:21] (Flashback) Richard
Les Misérables...
[13:24] (Flashback) Richard
Thank you, Chieko!
[13:28] (Flashback) Richard
Why do these things keep
happening to Jean Valjean?
[13:32] (Flashback) Richard
I feel bad for him.
[13:35] (Flashback) Chieko
No one who feels sorry for Jean Valjean
before his encounter with the bishop
[13:39] (Flashback) Chieko
is a bad person.
[13:41] (Flashback) Chieko
You're a good boy, Young Master Richard.
[13:45] (Flashback) Chieko
Where's Young Master Jeffrey?
[13:47] (Flashback) Richard
He has a cold.
[13:49] (Flashback) Richard
Auntie is caring for him at his bedside.
[13:59] (Flashback) Chieko
If you catch a cold, I'll take care of you.
[14:11] (Flashback) Chieko
It's a promise.
[14:15] Chieko
Three years passed in the blink of an eye,
SIGN 3 Years Later
[14:19] Chieko
and the day I was to return to
Japan was fast approaching.
[14:23] (Flashback) Count
Chieko, if you were to
take work with us formally,
[14:27] (Flashback) Count
we'd pay you appropriately.
[14:29] (Flashback) Chieko
What? But I'm going back to Japan...
[14:33] (Flashback) Count
At home, isn't your only option to get
married and become a housewife?
[14:38] (Flashback) Count
You should instead remain here,
where you can study all you'd like.
[14:43] (Flashback) Chieko
I appreciate the offer, but...
[14:46] (Flashback) Count
There's no need to hold back, Chieko.
[14:49] (Flashback) Count
In the first place, do you have any idea
how sad Richard will be if you leave?
[14:53] (Flashback) Count
Richard loves you like a mother.
[14:57] (Flashback) Count
You don't want to leave him either, do you?
[15:00] (Flashback) Chieko
I...
[15:03] (Flashback) Count
I trust that you won't betray me, Chieko.
[15:20] Chieko
Then, that fated Christmas day...
[15:25] Chieko
Lady Catherine summoned me to
the garden at the edge of the lawn.
[15:32] (Flashback) Catherine
I have a request.
[15:35] (Flashback) Chieko
For me?
[15:40] (Flashback) Catherine
Think of it not as helping me,
but helping Richard.
[15:44] (Flashback) Chieko
What?
[15:45] (Flashback) Catherine
You know Ashcroft is planning
to reconcile with me, don't you?
[15:49] (Flashback) Chieko
Yes.
[15:50] (Flashback) Catherine
I want to wipe the slate clean.
[15:53] (Flashback) Chieko
You're not going to get back together?
[15:56] (Flashback) Catherine
No. I've realized this is best for Richard.
[16:04] (Flashback) Catherine
Honestly, at first, I wanted
to take him back from you.
[16:11] (Flashback) Catherine
That made me want to reconcile.
[16:13] (Flashback) Catherine
But that boy is part of the count's family.
[16:17] (Flashback) Catherine
He should receive an appropriate education.
[16:21] (Flashback) Catherine
It's best for Richard to stay here.
[16:27] (Flashback) Catherine
Are you okay with staying like this?
[16:30] (Flashback) Chieko
Me?
[16:33] Count
I trust that you won't betray me, Chieko.
[16:43] (Flashback) Chieko
Please let me help you, Lady Catherine.
[16:48] (Flashback) Catherine
Are you sure?
[16:52] (Flashback) Catherine
Thank you, Chieko.
[16:59] Chieko
I hid the necklace inside
a Christmas present.
[17:11] (Flashback) Catherine
It's gone... My necklace is missing!
[17:15] Chieko
The next morning, Lady Catherine
retrieved the necklace.
[17:21] Chieko
She claimed that she couldn't reconcile
[17:25] Chieko
with a man whose family
treated her like a liar.
[17:28] Chieko
Lord Ashcroft accepted that,
[17:30] Chieko
leaving Young Master Richard
with the count's family
[17:33] Chieko
and departing for the Amazon alone.
[17:38] Chieko
In the end, I returned to Japan
[17:40] Chieko
without even saying goodbye
to Young Master Richard.
[17:46] Chieko
At the rate I was going, I would have
been under the count's thumb forever,
[17:49] Chieko
unable to ever return home to Japan.
[17:51] Chieko
So in fear, I betrayed the young master.

Young Master Richard...
[18:05] Seigi
Richard's been looking for you this whole time.
[18:11] Seigi
Please...
[18:36] Richard
Chieko.
[18:43] Richard
It's been so long.
[18:45] Richard
And, uh...
[18:49] Richard
What was I trying to say?
[18:52] Richard
I can't do it... I can't find the words.
[18:59] Richard
Chieko, I'm sorry for causing
you pain for so long.
[19:10] Chieko
I'm the one who should apologize.
[19:13] Chieko
All I could think about
was fleeing the manor.
[19:19] Richard
I knew what happened wasn't your fault,
[19:24] Richard
and that you'd continue
to feel responsible for it.
[19:30] Chieko
I've never been able to stop thinking
about how cruel I was to you.
[19:35] Chieko
I'm so very sorry.
[19:39] Richard
"Javert, there's nothing that I blame you for."
[19:42] Richard
"You've done your duty, nothing more."
[19:47] Chieko
Those were Jean Valjean's words to Javert.
[19:51] Richard
Let bygones be bygones, Chieko.
[19:56] Chieko
Thank you, Young Master Richard.
[20:01] Richard
I'm too old to be called
a young master anymore.
[20:04] Chieko
Back then, you used to look up at me.
[20:08] Chieko
You've grown so much.
[20:13] Richard
Chieko, I have a request.
[20:17] Richard
Shake my hand.
[20:20] Richard
No...
[20:22] Richard
Allow me to embrace you.
[20:42] Richard
Is this half of the necklace?
[20:46] Chieko
Before I returned to Japan,
Lady Catherine left half of it behind.
[20:53] Chieko
I've never been able to return it.
[20:56] Chieko
I'm like a thief.
[20:57] Seigi
You're wrong.
[20:59] Seigi
Just as Jean Valjean didn't steal anything,
[21:02] Seigi
this was a gift to you from Catherine-san.
[21:06] Chieko
Was the reason he recommended
this book to you...
[21:11] Richard
That's right.
[21:13] Chieko
You've made a good friend, Young Master.
[21:19] Richard
Regarding this piece of jewelry,
why not take this opportunity to remake it?
[21:25] Richard
I know a skilled artisan.
[21:28] Chieko
You really have become a fine man.
[21:32] Richard
Thanks to you.
[21:57] Man
Seigi.
[22:01] Man
It's been a while. It's Dad.
