[01:38] Chihiro
    Everyone has a secret.
[01:44] Chihiro
    Naturally, I am no exception.
[01:52] Chihiro
    I had as many choices as there are stars.
[01:58] Chihiro
    So what am I doing here?
[02:05] Chihiro
    By day, I fight alone as advisor
    to the Blood Donation Club.
SIGN    Fight Alone
SIGN    Strenuous Effort
[02:10] Chihiro
    It requires strenuous effort.
[02:13] Chihiro
    By night, I perform the backbreaking work
    of being the night school's only teacher.
SIGN    Backbreaking
[02:19] Chihiro
    It leaves me covered in wounds.
SIGN    Covered in Wounds
[02:22] Chihiro
    When I think back on it,
    my life has been unrewarding.
[02:27] Chihiro
    If I'd been more honest back then,
[02:32] Chihiro
    perhaps a different life
    would've awaited me.
[02:37] Mitsugu
    They didn't have any pork buns.
[02:41] Mitsugu
    What are you doing getting
    worked up by yourself?
[02:45] Chihiro
    Why did you show up all of a sudden?
[02:47] Mitsugu
    All of a sudden?
[02:48] Mitsugu
    You're the one who told me to
    bring you something to eat.
[02:51] Chihiro
    Oh, right. I'd completely forgotten.
[02:55] Mitsugu
    I'm not your errand girl, you know.
[02:59] Mitsugu
    It's rather inconvenient for
    you to casually contact me.
[03:02] Chihiro
    Now, now. Don't be so uptight.
[03:06] Chihiro
    I spend my weekends doing research.
    Put yourself in my shoes.
[03:11] Mitsugu
    Don't you enjoy doing that?
[03:13] Chihiro
    Who would enjoy this?
[03:15] Chihiro
    I'm not like you, blood donation enthusiast.
[03:18] Mitsugu
    By the way, why were you
    talking to yourself?
[03:22] Chihiro
    What? Did I say something?
[03:25] Mitsugu
    You said something about
    an unrewarding life.
[03:28] Chihiro
    It was the cry of my heart.
[03:32] Chihiro
    It's not something little
    kids would understand.
[03:34] Mitsugu
    Huh. Well, I'm not particularly
    interested in understanding, anyway.
[03:45] Mitsugu
    Memories?
[03:48] Chihiro
    Don't touch that!
[03:49] Chihiro
    This is my soul!
[03:56] Maki
    Her soul?
[03:58] Kaoru
    Sounds kind of fishy.
[04:00] Naomi
    I bet it's something really expensive.
[04:03] Mitsugu
    It might be something really rare.
[04:07] Kaoru
    Might be? You were satisfied
    with that and left?
[04:10] Mitsugu
    She stuck it in the fridge and
    locked it right after that.
[04:14] Mitsugu
    And after finishing the cup noodles,
    she had sweet buns and beer.
[04:17] Kaoru
    Sweet buns and beer? Sounds nasty.
[04:22] Maki
    Stop drifting off-topic
    and answer my question.
[04:27] Mitsugu
    I already told you, she wouldn't
    tell me anything else about it.
[04:32] Kaoru
    Sounds fishy.
[04:33] Nami
    Definitely fishy.
[04:35] Maki
    Maybe it's some kind of
    monster's blood again.
[04:41] Kaoru
    Or her ex's.
[04:44] Mitsugu
    What did you just say?
[04:46] Koaru
    Or her ex's.
[04:49] All
    What?!
[04:51] Mitsugu
    Her ex's blood?
[04:53] Nami
    Definitely.
[04:54] Maki
    And she has no sign of
    a boyfriend at her age.
[04:57] Mitsugu
    At her age? You know how old she is?
[04:59] Maki
    Judging by her skin, I think she's over 40.
[05:03] Mitsugu
    And she's got a bad back.
[05:04] Makoru
    And she's got those magnifying glasses.
[05:06] Maki
    I bet she's staying faithful to that man.
[05:09] Mai
    What a wonderful story.
[05:11] Mitsugu
    There's little point in us getting
    excited over speculation.
[05:15] Mitsugu
    But I've never seen that
    color or thickness before.
[05:19] Mitsugu
    Regardless of whose blood it is,
    it's definitely a rare type.
[05:24] Maki
    In that case...
[05:31] Chihiro
    What do you mean,
    you're all out with stomachaches?
[05:35] Mitsugu
    I'm sorry.
[05:36] Mitsugu
    We ate some pot stickers my
    neighbor gave us together.
[05:40] Chihiro
    Nothing's more expensive than free, idiots.
[05:45] Chihiro
    They made me come here for no reason.
[05:54] Kaoru
    That went well.
[05:56] Nami
    I sent the boys a message
    telling them class is canceled
[05:58] Nami
    because the doctor has a stomachache.
[06:00] Mitsugu
    Now we can investigate her secret
    without anyone bothering us.
[06:04] Mitsugu
    More importantly, if it's high quality
    blood, then it's surely nutritious, too.
[06:09] Mitusgu
    I bet it'd be good for Mai.
[06:11] Mai
    I'm starting to get excited.
[06:14] Maki
    Then let's also film this documentary
    on Chihiro's true identity.
[06:21] Maki
    Let's ri—
[06:24] Jinko
    I don't think so.
[06:27] Mitsugu
    What's wrong with you?
    Don't scare us like that.
[06:30] Nami
    There's no class today.
[06:32] Kaoru
    Didn't you check your messages?
[06:34] Jinko
    I'm not that easily deceived.
[06:37] Shirt
    Sirloin
[06:38] Katsuno
    Neither are we.
[06:39] Kanbara
    Sharing is caring.
[06:42] Okada
    Haven't you heard of the Antitrust Act?
[06:44] Horita
    Let us join you.
[06:46] Jinko
    I can't believe you canceled classes.
    Just what are you planning?
[06:52] Maki
    As long as you're all here,
    could you handle the lights?
[07:02] Sign
    School Infirmary
[07:16] Mitsugu
    Chihiro installed a new lock.
[07:20] Kanbara
    Captain, you're up.
[07:22] Katsuno
    Got it.

SIGN    STING
[07:31] Kaoru
    It didn't work.
[07:32] Maki
    Seriously? We're not getting anywhere.
[07:36] Mai
    Perhaps we should ask him.
SIGN    Franken-kun who will transfer
    in Episode 10
[07:41] Mai
    Franken, you're so wonderful.
[07:46] Mitsugu
    Okay, that's enough.
[07:49] Mitsugu
    Now then...
[08:00] Chihiro
    "I thought this might happen."
[08:03] Chihiro
    Haven't you guys heard of Shirou Sanada?
[08:06] Mitsugu
    Doctor? I thought you left already.
[08:09] Chihiro
    You thought I'd be fooled by that lie?
[08:12] Chihiro
    How dare you underestimate me.
[08:15] Mitsugu
    Don't be ridiculous.
[08:17] Chihiro
    You're after this blood, aren't you?
[08:21] Chihiro
    Even if nuclear war or a
    peasant uprising broke out,
[08:26] Chihiro
    I'd never let anyone take this blood.
[08:30] Maki
    Please tell us about that blood
    that's so important to you.
[08:34] Maki
    As youngsters on their way to
    becoming adults, offer us guidance.
[08:38] Maki
    Please, doctor.
[08:43] Chihiro
    If you insist.
[08:45] Chihiro
    I hope you're prepared to listen all night.
[08:49] Chihiro
    It's a long story...
[09:00] Chihiro
    Our meeting was a shocking
    and moving affair.
[09:06] Chihiro
    I distilled old blood and made health
    supplements using the residue.
[09:12] Chihiro
    I sacrificed my youth for the
    sake of that experiment.
[09:17] (Flashback) Deliveryman
    Thanks again.
[09:18] (Flashback) Chihiro
    You're late.
[09:20] (Flashback) Chihiro
    How many hours does it take to
    deliver a cutlet bowl, you...
[09:28] (Flashback) Chihiro
    It's just falling in love.
[09:32] Mitsugu
    That was quick.
[09:33] Maki
    It certainly was shocking.
[09:35] Chihiro
    Shut up and listen!
[09:42] Chihiro
    He taught me what youth was.
[09:49] Chihiro
    Annual pass: 59,000 yen
    plus food and beverage costs.
[09:53] Chihiro
    Arcade games: 35,600 yen
    plus food and beverage costs.
[09:58] Chihiro
    Traditional Japanese games: 124,500 yen
    plus food and beverage costs.

[10:07] Chihiro
    He taught me that youth is expensive.
[10:14] Chihiro
    Then, one day...
[10:16] (Flashback) Deliveryman
    Thanks again.
[10:18] (Flashback) Chihiro
    Jeez, you're late.
[10:24] Chihiro
    He disappeared...
[10:28] Sign
    Goodbye
[10:28] Chihiro
    ...along with my passbook and personal seal.
[10:39] Chihiro
    After a year and eight
    months of that, finally...
[10:43] (Flashback) Chihiro
    It's done!
[10:46] Chihiro
    It was the product of coincidence and a
    miracle, but my hard work finally paid off.
[10:53] Chihiro
    The supplement I made without
    any trace of odd flavors, mold,
[10:56] Chihiro
    or unwanted cultures provided enough
    energy to run a thousand meters.
[10:59] Mitsugu
    Where can we buy that?
[11:02] Chihiro
    Shut up and listen until I'm finished!
[11:11] Chihiro
    At that time, I was seeing a
    man I'd met on a dating site.
[11:18] (Flashback) Chihiro
    If I apply for a patent, I'll be
    able to pay off all your debt.
[11:23] (Flashback) Chihiro
    Then we can get married.
[11:26] (Flashback) Tonio
    Indeed. We'll build a new
    research lab together.
[11:30] Chihiro
    He was a hematologist like me,
[11:33] Chihiro
    but he carried a lot of
    debt from caring for his parents.
[11:38] Kaoru
    Debt?
[11:39] Maki
    Seriously?
[11:41] Nami
    This is starting to sound sketchy again.
[11:45] (Flashback) Chihiro
    I don't want to leave tonight.
[11:49] (Flashback) Tonio
    Chihiro...
[11:53] (Flashback) Tonio
    Here's looking at you, kid.
[11:56] Mitsugu
    I've heard that line before.
[11:58] Maki
    It's from the 1942 American
    film Casablanca.
[12:03] Maki
    It's a line from the final scene of this immortal
    masterpiece and is exceedingly famous.
[12:08] Maki
    It stars Humphrey Bogart, and the
    heroine is played by Ingrid Bergman.
[12:13] Maki
    By the way, this beautiful actress was
    born in Sweden and is known for—
[12:25] (Flashback) Chihiro
    Promise me you'll return.
[12:28] (Flashback) Tonio
    Of course.
[12:33] Chihiro
    He left on a trip to pay off his debt.
[12:38] Chihiro
    He made a promise to me.
[12:41] Chihiro
    He promised he'd get fit and return with
    a gift of rare and valuable blood.
[12:56] Jinko
    Couldn't he have paid
    off his debt at an ATM?
[12:59] Maki
    Your story is full of anachronisms.
[13:02] Mitsugu
    Are you going to tell us he never returned?
[13:05] Kaoru
    He dumped you.
[13:07] Maki
    It's marriage fraud.
[13:08] Nami
    Happens all the time.
[13:11] Chihiro
    The story is just beginning.
[13:23] Chihiro
    I heard a rumor that he was living
    in a village in the north.
[13:32] Chihiro
    He must've lost his memory
    in an accident or something.
[14:19] (Flashback) Young Woman
    Three winters ago, I found him covered
    in blood in front of my house.
[14:26] (Flashback) Young Woman
    Apparently he'd been beaten
    by some debt collectors.
[14:30] (Flashback) Young Woman
    He regained consciousness, but his
    rehabilitation took a long time.
[14:35] (Flashback) Young Woman
    Every night, he deliriously
    called a woman's name.
[14:42] (Flashback) Chihiro
    He hasn't forgotten me.
[14:48] (Flashback) Young Woman
    You must be Chizuru-san.
[14:54] Mitsugu
    Chizuru?
[14:55] Kaoru
    Who's Chizuru?
[14:57] Jinko
    Does that mean there was another woman?
[14:59] Mitsugu
    Or he remembered your name wrong?
[15:02] Jinko
    Either way, he's awful.
[15:04] Kaoru
    He totally dumped you.
[15:06] Maki
    There's a movie that's not quite like this.
[15:10] Maki
    And that movie is...
[15:13] Maki
    Master director Vittorio De Sica's 1970
    Italian/French/USSR joint production Sunflower.
[15:22] Maki
    It stars Sophia Loren and
    Marcello Mastroianni.
[15:26] Maki
    In Japan, it's known as Sophia
    Loren's greatest masterpiece,
[15:30] Maki
    but personally, I prefer Lyudmila Savelyeva,
[15:34] Maki
    who played Mastroianni's Russian wife.
[15:38] Maki
    That aside, ultimately, it's marriage fraud.
[15:41] Nami
    Happens all the time.
[15:44] Mitsugu
    Well, there's also something wrong
    with people who fall for it.
[15:47] Chihiro
    Back then, I was an idiot focused
    wholly on her research.
[15:52] Mitsugu
    So, what happened to the supplement?
[15:55] Mitsugu
    What does this story have to do
    with the blood labeled "Memories"?
[16:00] Chihiro
    Hold your horses.
[16:01] Chihiro
    This is where things get crazy.
[16:07] Chihiro
    He'd lost his memory and was living
    a second life with a young woman.
[16:13] Chihiro
    Not only that, but they had
    a cute child together.
[16:36] (Flashback) Tonio
    Chiaki...
SIGN    Chiaki...
[16:38] (Flashback) Young Woman
    Who's Chiaki? Isn't she Chizuru?
[16:42] (Flashback) Young Woman
    There's another woman besides
    Chizuru, isn't there?
[16:44] (Flashback) Tonio
    Wait. There's a reason for this.
[16:49] (Flashback) Tonio
    Don't go, Chinami!
[16:55] Kaoru
    Yet another woman.
[16:57] Jinko
    Chinami.
[16:58] Nami
    Chiharu.
[16:59] Maki
    Chifuyu.
[17:00] Mitsugu
    Maybe there'll be a Chiiko, too.
[17:03] (Flashback) Young Woman
    Chiiko, we're leaving.
[17:06] Mitsugu
    There really was one.
[17:40] Chihiro
    Months passed.
[17:43] Chihiro
    Once again I believed in miracles and
    devoted myself to producing supplements.
[17:49] (Flashback) Deliveryman
    Thanks again.
[17:51] (Flashback) Chihiro
    You're late.
[17:52] (Flashback) Chihiro
    How many hours does it take to
    deliver a cutlet bowl, you...
[18:00] (Flashback) Chihiro
    It's just falling in love.
[18:05] Mitsugu
    Again?
[18:06] Maki
    Zero ability to learn.
[18:13] Chihiro
    He taught me that youth is eternal.
[18:19] Chihiro
    Annual pass: 59,000 yen
    plus food and beverage costs.
[18:23] Mitsugu
    Okay, okay.
[18:23] Sign
    School Infirmary
[18:24] Maki
    We already heard that part.
[18:26] Nami
    Hurry up and tie this story
    to the "Memories" blood.
[18:30] Mitsugu
    Before that, what happened
    to the supplement?
[18:33] Maki
    Did the debt collectors take it from you?
[18:40] Chihiro
    I'm glad you asked.
[18:42] Mitsugu
    Of course we asked.
[18:45] Chihiro
    Several more months passed.
[18:48] Chihiro
    Once again I believed in miracles and
    devoted myself to producing supplements.
[18:52] (Flashback) Tonio
    Thanks again.
[18:53] (Flashback) Chihiro
    Shut up. I didn't order
    anything for delivery.
[18:58] (Flashback) Tonio
    You let me in because I said
    was here to deliver something.
[19:02] (Flashback) Tonio
    I'm back.
[19:03] Mitsugu
    Again?
[19:05] Tonio
    Chi...
[19:06] Chihiro
    Tonio.
[19:08] Mitsugu
    Tonio?
[19:10] Chihiro
    What? I just remembered his name.
[19:10] Sign
    An Tonio
[19:15] (Flashback) Tonio
    I couldn't help what happened then.
[19:18] (Flashback) Tonio
    Those debt collectors didn't believe
    my story about the supplement.
[19:22] (Flashback) Chihiro
    Where is it now?
[19:24] (Flashback) Tonio
    I'm sorry. They threw it in the gutter.
[19:29] (Flashback) Tonio
    They ganged up on me,
[19:32] (Flashback) Tonio
    and while living with Chiemi after
    she rescued me, this happened.
[19:37] (Flashback) Tonio
    I made you wait all this time.
[19:40] (Flashback) Tonio
    But I still—
[19:42] (Flashback) Chihiro
    Don't say it.
[19:44] (Flashback) Chihiro
    It's in the past now.
[19:46] (Flashback) Chihiro
    This was destined to happen.
[19:50] (Flashback) Tonio
    I couldn't keep our promise,
[19:55] (Flashback) Tonio
    but the winter is cold.

    Isn't she your child?
[20:11] (Flashback) Chihiro
    I can't go back to how things were.
[20:13] (Flashback) Deliveryman
    Thanks again.
[20:15] (Flashback) Deliveryman
    Chi-chan, did you want kitsune
    soba for a late night snack?
[20:20] Kaoru
    You were still seeing him?
[20:39] Chihiro
    If only I'd told him not to go then...
[20:59] Chihiro
    Well? Pretty good story, right?
[21:02] Mitsugu
    No. Listen, we'll give
    up on the supplement—
[21:06] Nami
    That's right. Whose blood
    is the "Memories" blood?
[21:09] Kaoru
    Yeah.
[21:17] Chihiro
    Type A, type B, type O.
[21:20] Chihiro
    None of them are rare or valuable,
[21:22] Chihiro
    but it's the blood of those damn
    bastards who wasted my youth.
[21:28] Chihiro
    That plus all the rest of my youth
    is contained in this one bottle.
[21:38] Chihiro
    Listen to the lamentation
    of my youth, damn it!

    I just happened to come
    to this beach to swim.
[23:51] Mitsugu
    Excuse me for asking, but is
    there a doctor around here?
