[02:44] Yume
    Oh, me?
[02:46] Yume
    I was, um... What was it again?
[02:49] Yume
    Oh! That's right!
[02:51] Yume
    I was looking for a new home!
[02:55] Yume
    For this kitten!
[03:02] Yume
    It was in this box.
[03:03] Yume
    I want to keep it, but pets
    aren't allowed at home.
[03:08] Yume
    Grandma can't keep it because
    Grandma's eyes aren't good.
[03:14] Yume
    That's why I'm gonna stay with it
    until someone takes it home.
[03:23] Yume
    No! I'm not going home!
[03:25] Yume
    It's not cold!

    I really wanna keep it...
[04:32] Yume
    Then I could feed it milk every
    day and sleep in the same bed.
[04:37] Yume
    I would play with it every day and
    once it got as big as Yuki-chan...
[04:42] Yume
    We could go see UMYU-Sea together!
[04:52] Yume
    It's raining.

[13:32] TV
    The victims were all women who had
    no prior association with the culprit.

    However, I am no ordinary cat!
[15:01] Yukichi
    On that unseasonably snowy night...
[15:19] Saku; flashback
    If you have nowhere to go,
    how about coming with me?
[15:23] Yukichi
    There was a peculiar human that spoke to me.
[15:29] Yukichi
    I was a stray cat covered in filth.
[15:33] Yukichi
    One who knew he would soon expire...
[16:05] Saku
    Your name... Let's see.
[16:10] Saku
    How about Yukichi?
[16:13] Yukichi
    The odd name she gave me on a whim
    strangely felt just right...
[16:21] Yukichi
    That was the moment I knew
    I would become a house cat.
[16:40] Yukichi
    However, that was also
    a misunderstanding on my part.
[16:42] Saku
    Okay! This is your new home from now on!
[16:45] Yukichi
    She took me to a garbage collection center.
[16:49] Yukichi
    This human lives in a trash dump?
[16:53] Yukichi
    Well, it's warmer than outside
    and seems pretty safe.
[16:58] Saku
    Aren't you hungry?
[17:01] Saku
    Since you're a kitten, can you drink milk?
[17:07] Saku
    Oops! This milk expired three months ago!
[17:11] Saku
    It's become a weird yellow
    substance. Is it cheese?!
[17:15] Yukichi
    Dangerous! This human is dangerous!
[17:19] Saku
    Is there anything else to eat?
[17:22] Saku
    When did I put dried squid in the freezer?
[17:25] Saku
    Oh, it's mackerel!
    I'll pretend I didn't see that...
[17:28] Yukichi
    I must escape!
[17:30] Saku
    Oh, Yukichi! Don't go that way!
[17:35] Saku
    Watch out!
[17:42] Saku
    Are you okay, Yukichi?!
[17:47] Saku
    Thank goodness. Are you hurt anywhere?
[17:50] Saku
    Ouch...
[17:51] Yukichi
    Th-This human protected me
    with her own body?!

[18:19] Yukichi
    That is the face of a human in dire straits.

    Why does a freeloader like me have
    more of a bed than the homeowner?

    Wait, why does she have
    a pillow and blanket there?
[19:09] Yukichi
    Is this how she normally sleeps?!
[19:20] Yukichi
    She should have just turned
    her back on a stray like me.
[19:25] Yukichi
    Now, how should I pay her back
    for one night of room and board?
