[00:01] Dad
    You were late today, Ebata.
[00:04] Ebata
    I apologize.
[00:06] Dad
    It's fine. But I must ask...
[00:08] Ebata
    Why are you dressed that way?
[00:12] Dad
    Whatever makes you happy.
[00:15] Futaro
    Yes, all five are working hard.
[00:17] (Flashback) Dad
    I see.
[00:19] (Flashback) Dad
    Then I expect good things from their finals.
[00:22] Futaro
    May I say something?
[00:25] (Flashback) Futaro
    I have a bit of a selfish request.
[00:27] Dad
    What is it?
[00:29] (Flashback) Futaro
    I'd like to quit tutoring as of today.
[00:33] Futaro
    Are you aware that Nino and Itsuki
    got in a fight and ran away from home?
[00:39] (Flashback) Dad
    I never heard about this.
[00:41] (Flashback) Dad
    Have they resolved their issues?
[00:43] Futaro
    Yes.
[00:44] (Flashback) Dad
    Great.
[00:45] Dad
    Goodbye.
[00:46] (Flashback) Futaro
    Is that it?
[00:48] (Flashback) Futaro
    Aren't you curious about
    why they got in a fight?
[00:51] (Flashback) Futaro
    Don't you care to know what they're
    thinking or what's bothering them?
[00:56] (Flashback) Futaro
    Oh, sorry, I shouldn't talk
    like that to my employer.
[01:00] Futaro
    Oh, wait, I'm quitting.
[01:03] (Flashback) Futaro
    Why don't you try acting
    like a father for once?!
[01:06] Futaro
    Asshole!
[01:11] Dad
    Uesugi-kun... You've gone and done it now.
[01:14] Dad
    But...
[01:16] Dad
    I won't give my daughters to a man like you.

SIGN    Happy New Year
[02:58] ---
    New Year's
    Allowance
[02:58] Raiha
    Thank you, Grandpa!
[03:01] Futaro
    I'd always gotten allowances until last year.
[03:04] Futaro
    I should have stayed home to study.
[03:07] Raiha
    "Good fortune"!
[03:08] Raiha
    Yay!
[03:10] Raiha
    What about you, Onii-chan?
[03:12] Futaro
    I don't need my fortune told
    to know how my year's going to be.
[03:16] Futaro
    Ever since I met those girls,
    I've always had...
SIGN    Worst Luck
[03:19] Futaro
    the worst luck.
[03:29] Yotsuba
    Uesugi-san and Raiha-chan!
[03:32] Nino
    Why are you always around?
[03:34] Yotsuba
    Why don't you stop by our place?
[03:36] Futaro
    Nah, we'll pass.
[03:37] Raiha
    I'll go!
SIGN    Nakano
[03:41] TV
    I love you, too.
[03:46] Itsuki
    They kissed...
[03:47] Nino
    It's so romantic.
[03:50] Futaro
    Why did you even invite us over?
[03:52] Ichika
    Come on, it's the new year. Let's relax.
[03:56] Miku
    Happy New Year, Futaro.
[04:00] Miku
    I made a New Year's meal.
[04:01] Miku
    Want some?
[04:08] Yotsuba
    Huh?
[04:08] Yotsuba
    What's wrong, Raiha-chan?
[04:10] Raiha
    Um...
[04:11] Raiha
    I think I had the wrong idea about you all.
[04:15] Raiha
    I'd heard your family was really rich.
[04:18] Yotsuba
    O-Oh, well, things happened.
[04:22] Ichika
    Sorry we don't really have much.
[04:25] Nino
    We have to return the kimonos
    to our landlord, too.
[04:28] Ichika
    Anyway, you can make yourself at home.
[04:31] Raiha
    Okay.
[04:32] Futaro
    Are you guys sure you're all right?
[04:35] Nino
    Hey.
[04:36] Nino
    Why are you sitting over there?
[04:39] Nino
    Isn't it cold?
[04:41] Nino
    Get in the kotatsu.
[04:44] Futaro
    Okay, Raiha, go.
[04:45] Ichika
    Come on, don't be shy.
[04:47] Ichika
    I'll give you a massage.
[04:49] Ichika
    You must be tired.
[04:52] Ichika
    No, I'm not really tired.
[04:55] Miku
    No fair, Ichika.
[04:56] Ichika
    First come, first served.
[04:58] Yotsuba
    I get his arms, then!
[04:59] Nino
    Oh, fine.
[05:01] Itsuki
    I'd like to massage his legs, then.
[05:08] Raiha
    Onii-chan's popular all of a sudden!
[05:12] Raiha
    Mom, spring has come early for Onii-chan.
[05:16] Futaro
    What are you guys plotting?
[05:18] Yotsuba
    Urp.
[05:19] Yotsuba
    I-It's nothing.
[05:21] Miku
    We're just thanking you for everything.
[05:23] Futaro
    Liar!
[05:24] Nino
    You always work so hard.
[05:26] Futaro
    Something's really fishy.
[05:28] Itsuki
    Please have some of my food, if you'd like.
[05:31] Futaro
    Way too fishy.
[05:32] Yotsuba
    Why don't we play fukuwarai to
    get into the New Year's spirit?
[05:35] Yotsuba
    We made a quintuplets version!
[05:38] Futaro
    That's way too hard!
[05:39] Miku
    Um...
[05:41] Miku
    There's something we'd
    like to discuss with you.
[05:43] Yotsuba
    It's too early for that!
[05:45] Ichika
    Why don't we all go to the other room?
[05:50] Futaro
    What are they scheming?
[05:54] Nino
    What should we do?
[05:55] ---
    I don't think it bothers him at all.
[05:58] Yotsuba
    I'd feel bad, though.
[06:01] Yotsuba
    We're asking him to continue
    teaching us without pay.
[06:06] Miku
    I want to do something for him.
[06:08] Ichika
    And I don't want to depend on
    Father, if we can avoid it.
[06:11] Itsuki
    But what is there that we could do for him?
[06:22] Itsuki
    Th-That's inappropriate!
[06:23] Nino
    You were thinking the
    same thing, weren't you?
[06:27] Ichika
    I can't imagine that'd make Futaro-kun happy.
[06:30] Nino
    Who knows? He's a guy, after all.
[06:33] Nino
    You're an actress, aren't you?
    You could give him a peck on the cheek.
[06:36] Ichika
    Wh-What exactly do you think actresses do?
[06:39] Ichika
    B-But I mean, in that case...
[06:41] Ichika
    What about you, Miku?
[06:43] Miku
    Me?
[06:45] Miku
    And Futaro...
[06:49] Miku
    Futaro.
[06:50] Miku
    Smooch.
[06:51] Futaro
    Miku!
[06:53] Futaro
    You've really led me on.
[06:55] Futaro
    You can't stop me now.
[06:58] Miku
    N-No, Futaro.
[07:01] Miku
    Stop.
[07:02] Miku
    Wait, don't stop.
[07:04] Nino
    You stop!
[07:06] Yotsuba
    Uh...
[07:07] Yotsuba
    What are you all talking about?
[07:09] Itsuki
    Why not just do something
    normal and cook for him?
[07:12] Itsuki
    You're good at cooking, Nino.
[07:14] ---
    Make him some snacks or something.
[07:19] Nino
    I can't.
[07:20] Nino
    I was finally getting over it.
[07:23] Ichika
    Why don't we just go tell him
    what's going on?
[07:28] Futaro
    Ichika.
[07:30] Futaro
    Don't move.
[07:31] Ichika
    Wh-What?
[07:33] Ichika
    No!
[07:35] Futaro
    I knew it!
[07:37] Futaro
    This is Ichika's mouth.
[07:39] Futaro
    No doubt.
[07:40] Raiha
    I'm pretty sure it's this one.
[07:44] Yotsuba
    You guys are playing!
[07:48] Raiha
    We changed the rules, though.
[07:50] Futaro
    Yotsuba, what about this?
[07:53] Raiha
    Let's see...
[07:55] Futaro
    Uesugi-san, you have cream on your face.
[08:01] Raiha
    O-Onii-chan! Yotsuba-san!
[08:04] Yotsuba
    Let's just call that peck on the cheek
    a payment for your tutoring.
[08:08] Miku
    I didn't expect that from Yotsuba.
[08:10] Miku
    She caught me off-guard.
[08:12] Yotsuba
    I'm dead!
[08:14] Futaro
    Payment?
[08:15] Itsuki
    About that...
[08:17] Itsuki
    We aren't in any position to
    compensate you fairly right now.
[08:22] Futaro
    Oh, you could have said so.
[08:27] Futaro
    I'm just doing it because I want to.
[08:29] Futaro
    Don't worry about paying me.
[08:31] Itsuki
    Uesugi-kun.
[08:33] Futaro
    You can just give me a cut
    when you make it big.
[08:36] Futaro
    But I want it in writing! Five thousand yen
    per person per day of tutoring!
[08:40] Futaro
    And I will collect, right down to the last yen!
[08:42] Nino
    Right, that's how he is.
[08:44] Futaro
    And all five of you are here right now.
[08:47] Futaro
    Let's get cracking on the winter homework!
[08:50] Futaro
    Winter homework, huh?
[08:55] Miku
    Futaro.
[08:56] Nino
    You underestimate us.
[08:58] Nino
    We've all done our homework already.
[09:02] Futaro
    Oh.
[09:03] Futaro
    Well, let's just make it a
    regular study session, then.
[09:07] Raiha
    Onii-chan.
[09:08] Raiha
    I'm going to go home
    so I don't get in the way.
[09:10] Futaro
    O-Okay.
[09:11] Futaro
    Stay safe.
[09:17] Miku
    Futaro.
[09:18] Miku
    Can you help me with this bit?
[09:20] Futaro
    Let's see.
[09:22] Futaro
    "Provide examples of words ending with -ish"?
[09:25] Futaro
    -ish is a suffix that means "approximately,"
    or kind of. So you have "pinkish"...
[09:29] Futaro
    "Bookish," "thickish"...
    There's also peckish, but that's...
[09:36] Miku
    What?
[09:38] Nino
    Nothing.
[09:38] Nino
    It's nothing.
[09:40] Ichika
    Hey, Ichika, wake up.
[09:43] Ichika
    Sorry.
[09:45] Ichika
    I'm not... sleeping.
[09:48] Futaro
    Yeah, you are!
[09:49] Futaro
    Hey.
[09:51] Nino
    Let her sleep for a while.
[09:53] Nino
    Ichika's been working even more than before.
[09:57] Itsuki
    She is paying our bills and expenses.
[10:00] Miku
    It's all thanks to Ichika that we
    get to have you here to teach us.
[10:05] Futaro
    But what's the point
    if she can't focus on studying?
[10:09] Futaro
    Hey, wake...
[10:10] Itsuki
    Guys...
[10:11] Itsuki
    Why don't we work, too?
[10:17] Futaro
    Do you have any work experience?
[10:19] Itsuki
    I-I do not.
[10:21] Futaro
    Will you have time to both study and work?
[10:23] Futaro
    All of you are struggling to even pass.
[10:27] Itsuki
    I'll work as a tutor, like you do.
[10:32] Itsuki
    I'll teach as I study.
[10:33] Itsuki
    That way, I can improve
    my academics, too.
[10:36] Itsuki
    It's two birds with one stone.
[10:37] Futaro
    Please don't.
[10:39] Futaro
    I'd feel sorry for your students.
[10:42] Yotsuba
    How about working at a supermarket, then?
[10:45] Futaro
    You'd be fired instantly.
[10:46] Miku
    I want to try working at a maid café.
[10:49] Yotsuba
    You might be surprisingly popular.
[10:50] Nino
    Permission denied!
[10:52] Nino
    You'd probably be
    a dominatrix, right, Nino?
[10:54] Nino
    What's that supposed to mean?
[10:56] Yotsuba
    Nino would work in food service, right?
[10:59] Nino
    If I had to choose, sure.
[11:01] Yotsuba
    It's always been your dream
    to open your own shop.
[11:06] ---
    First I've heard of it.
[11:08] Nino
    It's just a silly idea I had as a kid.
[11:10] Nino
    Don't take it too seriously.
[11:12] Itsuki
    I know a good cake shop.
[11:16] Futaro
    Mille-feuille.

[11:20] Nino
    Merci beaucoup.
[11:22] Nino
    No!
[11:26] Futaro
    I've worked several jobs so far,
[11:29] ---
    but they all took some commitment.
[11:32] Futaro
    Don't underestimate work!
[11:34] Futaro
    Now's the time to study!
[11:43] Miku
    Futaro!
[11:44] Itsuki
    Ichika! Please stop taking your
    clothes off in your sleep!
[11:47] Nino
    Look away! Pervert!
[11:48] Futaro
    Me?!
[11:54] Futaro
    I underestimated this job.

    It's been a while, Itsuki-kun.
[12:13] Itsuki
    Father.
[12:16] Futaro
    Well? What do you think of my pie?
[12:18] Futaro
    It's just like yours, boss!
[12:20] Futaro
    Give me a raise, please!
[12:23] Boss
    Give it a taste.
[12:28] Futaro
    It's underdone.
[12:30] Futaro
    I shouldn't be talking trash about Miku.
[12:33] Boss
    Looks like it'll be a while before
    I can let you in the kitchen.
[12:36] Boss
    Oh, that reminds me...
[12:38] Boss
    Uesugi-kun, you can leave now.
[12:42] Futaro
    No...
[12:43] Futaro
    Are you firing me?
[12:44] Boss
    We're closing at noon today.
[12:47] Boss
    We're renting the shop out
    for a movie shoot.
[12:51] Futaro
    You could have told me sooner.

    Hello!
[12:56] Person A
    Looking forward to working with you today.
[12:58] Boss
    If the movie takes off,
[13:00] ---
    the fans will be coming in
    droves to visit the site.
[13:04] Boss
    We'll have a pick with our business name
    in the cakes that will be on the screen.
[13:10] Futaro
    I wish I had his insatiable hunger.
[13:14] Person A
    That looks so good.
[13:15] Person B
    I look forward to working with you.
[13:17] Boss
    H-Hi.
[13:19] Futaro
    I should go home.

    Thank you for having us.

    Scene 37-4.
[13:32] Director
    Action!
[13:34] Ichika
    I've always wanted to try this cake shop.
[13:40] Person A
    Now's not the time, Tamako!
[13:43] Ichika
    Huh? What do you mean?
[13:45] Person B
    That's the cursed reply.
[13:48] Person C
    They say if you get one, you die.
[13:51] Ichika
    I'm too dumb to know
    what you're talking about.
[13:56] Ichika
    Let's just have some cake!
[14:05] Futaro
    What, Tamako-chan?
[14:07] Ichika
    Futaro-kun,
[14:09] ---
    would you mind not watching?
    It's embarrassing.
[14:12] Futaro
    Why would you take up embarrassing work?
[14:14] Ichika
    I'm trying not to tell the others,
[14:17] ---
    but we're running out of savings.
[14:19] Ichika
    I mean, it turns out food and power
    is a lot more expensive than I thought.
[14:24] Ichika
    So I decided to accept any work I can find.
[14:28] Ichika
    I have to be strong for the girls.
[14:31] Ichika
    So don't try to stop me.
[14:33] Futaro
    I'm not going to dismiss your efforts.
[14:36] Futaro
    And I'm grateful to you for giving me
    an opportunity to continue tutoring.
[14:42] Futaro
    But I'm sure you could do better.
[14:45] Futaro
    Isn't this job still pretty unprofitable
    for how much it ties you down?
[14:51] Person A
    Nakano-san, we're ready to start rolling.
[14:54] Ichika
    Coming.
[15:00] Ichika
    Yummy!
[15:03] Director
    Cut!
[15:04] Director
    That was good.
[15:05] Director
    That one was good, but why
    don't we try another take?
[15:08] Ichika
    Okay.
[15:10] Futaro
    I wish the others could see her
    being so ditzy.
[15:14] Person A
    I hope you don't mind us using
    this pie for one more take.
[15:18] Futaro
    Sure.
[15:21] Futaro
    The pick's missing.
[15:25] Futaro
    It's the dud that I made!
[15:27] Director
    Ready! Action!
[15:36] Ichika
    Yummy!
[15:39] Director
    Nice! That was great!
[15:49] Futaro
    You got Problem 5 wrong.
[15:53] Ichika
    You caught me.
[15:55] Futaro
    You don't have anything to hide.
[15:57] Ichika
    These things are only cool
    when done in secret.

[16:01] Futaro
    Are you done with your script?
[16:03] Ichika
    Yeah.
[16:04] Ichika
    I memorized the whole thing already.
[16:06] Futaro
    Why can't you use that skill for studying?
[16:10] Ichika
    The curse kills me in the first part,
    so I don't have that many lines.
[16:14] Futaro
    You die a lot, huh?
[16:17] Ichika
    Oh, yeah.
[16:19] Ichika
    Is the cake here all right?
[16:21] Ichika
    If I'm being kind, it was unique.
[16:23] Ichika
    If I'm being brutal, it was
    like Miku's home cooking.
[16:26] Futaro
    Sorry about that.
[16:28] Futaro
    But you saved my skin.
[16:30] Futaro
    That was an impressive lie.
[16:31] Futaro
    You surprise me.
[16:33] Ichika
    It's called acting.
[16:35] Futaro
    It's true that you surprised me, though.
[16:39] Futaro
    I mean, well...
[16:42] Futaro
    Y-You're kind of growing into
    your job as an actress.
[16:45] Futaro
    She's asleep!
[16:47] Futaro
    Jeez.
[16:49] Futaro
    She almost had me saying
    something smug to her.
[16:52] Futaro
    Man, I'm amazed you can hide your
    embarrassment in front of so many people.
[16:58] Futaro
    I really wish the others could see you.
[17:02] Futaro
    Good work, Ichika.
[17:07] Ichika
    I hate that I'm even acting
    in this moment...

    Now I really am lying.

[17:53] Nino
    Miku asked me to buy these.
[17:55] Futaro
    She's eating all that?
[17:57] Nino
    You're pretty dense for
    someone who's so smart.
[18:00] Yotsuba
    It's so early, too. It's only January.
[18:03] Nino
    Okay, let's go.
[18:05] Yotsuba
    Wait, Nino.
[18:08] Yotsuba
    Can you hold this for a sec?
[18:09] ---
    Hey—
[18:13] Futaro
    I told you!
[18:14] Futaro
    Hold on tight.
[18:18] Yotsuba
    There.
[18:19] Yotsuba
    Sorry, Nino.
[18:21] Nino
    Y-Yeah.
[18:28] Nino
    Something's weird lately.
[18:30] Nino
    Maybe I haven't gotten over Kintaro-kun yet.
[18:36] Nino
    It doesn't make sense otherwise.
[18:38] Nino
    Yeah.
[18:40] Nino
    There's no way...
[18:42] Nino
    There's no way this guy's my prince!
[18:48] Futaro
    What?
[18:49] Nino
    Nothing.
[18:50] Yotsuba
    Nino, look.
[18:56] Dad
    Excuse me.
[18:57] Dad
    Bring us every kind of sandwich you have.
[19:00] Person A
    Certainly.
[19:00] Itsuki
    Don't worry about me.
[19:03] Dad
    You don't want anything?
[19:06] Itsuki
    I'll take them. Thank you.
[19:08] Dad
    Good girl.
[19:10] Dad
    You're amenable and quick
    to understand, Itsuki-kun.
[19:13] Dad
    I believe that's what is meant
    when one is called "intelligent."
[19:20] Nino
    I knew it. It's Dad.
[19:22] Yotsuba
    Why is he with Itsuki?
[19:24] Futaro
    That was definitely him.
[19:26] Futaro
    That was him at the hospital back then.
[19:30] Futaro
    That man is their father?
[19:34] Dad
    Now, Itsuki-kun...
[19:36] Dad
    I'll turn a blind eye to the mistake
    you girls have made.
[19:40] Dad
    Come back home with the others immediately.
[19:42] Dad
    Inform all of your sisters.
[19:45] Itsuki
    Does that include him as well?
[19:49] Dad
    You mean Uesugi-kun?
[19:51] Dad
    This is a family matter.
[19:53] Dad
    He's an outsider in every sense.
[19:56] Dad
    And, to be honest,
[19:58] Dad
    I hate him.
[20:03] Itsuki
    That's so childish!
[20:05] Nino
    What did you do to Dad?
[20:07] Futaro
    I-I dunno.
[20:08] Futaro
    G-Gee, I'm not sure.
[20:11] Itsuki
    We can't go home yet.
[20:13] Itsuki
    He's far too involved in this
    to call him an outsider.
[20:18] Dad
    Then how about this:
[20:19] ---
    I'll allow Uesugi-kun back into the home,
[20:22] ---
    and ask him to continue tutoring.
[20:26] Dad
    But he'll be working alongside
    a professional tutor.
[20:30] Dad
    He'll be acting as her support.
[20:33] Itsuki
    But we're all working so hard.
[20:36] Dad
    Do you even suppose, if Uesugi-kun was
    brought back in as your tutor as before,
[20:41] ---
    that Yotsuba-kun could earn a passing grade?
[20:48] Dad
    From what I've seen of her grades in
    the second term, I have very little hope.
[20:55] Nino
    No.
[20:57] Nino
    You'll only make things worse if you go.
[21:00] Futaro
    But...
[21:04] Itsuki
    Y-You're right.
[21:08] Itsuki
    We'll have a better chance with two tutors.
[21:11] Yotsuba
    We can do it.
[21:13] Itsuki
    Yotsuba!
[21:14] Yotsuba
    Uesugi-san and the five of us can do it.
[21:18] Yotsuba
    I want the six of us to pull it off.
[21:21] Yotsuba
    So please, believe in us.
[21:23] Yotsuba
    We won't make the same mistake again.
[21:26] Dad
    And if you do?
[21:29] Dad
    I would rather not say this out loud,
[21:32] ---
    but I've made an arrangement
    with an acquaintance
[21:34] ---
    who is a board member at a high school that
    would allow you to enroll as third-years.
[21:39] Dad
    If you fail on the next exam,
    I'll have you transfer to that school.
[21:44] Dad
    If you insist on doing things your way,
    the responsibility is all yours.
[21:48] Dad
    I hope you understand.
[21:52] Itsuki
    Understood.
[21:55] Dad
    I knew you would, Itsuki-kun.
[21:58] ---
    Then I'll finalize the arrangements.
[22:00] Itsuki
    No.
[22:02] Itsuki
    We'll accept the condition that we
    transfer schools if we don't make it.
[22:05] Itsuki
    I'm sorry I'm not an amenable,
    understanding, intelligent child.
[22:14] Dad
    It seems that the duty of a parent is to
    hear the selfish demands of their children.
[22:19] Dad
    And it's also the duty of a parent
    to scold their selfishness.
[22:23] Dad
    This is your last chance.
