I am not a spy.

I am a simple fisherman.

I love this country.

I'm not a spy.

I am a simple fisherman.

I love this country.

This order is bullshit, Marlon.

Maybe it is.

But maybe it ain't.

- Everyone out by nightfall. - When can we come back?

The island is naval property now.

I have to confiscate any spy equipment.

- Radios, flashlights, cameras... - Come on, Marl.

We used to get plastered together at Wada's.

My mom washed your uniform after you threw up on it.

If I was a spy, wouldn't you know by now?

You're lucky it's me.

Some of these MPs would love to see you have an accident.

You know?

Like Stan Grichuk.

Then it's a good thing I'm not a drunk who just got fired.

Do you know where they took my dad?

Wherever he is, he's safer there.

Yoshida-san. We've got room.

Ah, thank you.

- Can you believe this? - I'm starting to.

Hey, maybe in LA you'll get to see that Luz girl again.

She's moved on.

So have I.

Water under the Badger Avenue Bridge.

Here, let me get the rest.

OK, big man, just the one suitcase?

Your father's.

I did not think I would like it here at first.

Mama, stop crying.

At least we're all together.

OK, everyone.

Let's see what we can find in the city.

They still have vacancies.

Maybe we should get separate rooms from Asako and Chester.

Is something wrong?

I thought I saw someone...

Separate rooms are fine.

No...

No.

No!

No!

You remember me, don't you?

Hey, keep it moving.

What's that?

Sutra.

To ward off obake.

Here. Would you like one?

Obake?

Here?

Do you imagine nothing haunts this place?

Look at Furuya.

Do you think all the demons are still in hell?

A yurei haunts Furuya?

Not grief or guilt?

Where has Imamura gone?

Nakamura?

The Shinoda brothers?

Disappeared without explanation.

We'd best keep to ourselves.

Any face we see can be that of a foul spirit.

Hey gents, slow down. I can hardly keep up.

Are you here on Wednesdays now?

Usually I'm with Irv and Hitoshi but they switched me.

We not see them for days.

Well, then I guess it's lucky I'm on Wednesdays now.

That is Nick Okada.

Or so he says.

Chester. Did you drop out? I haven't seen you since...

- Pearl Harbor? - Yeah.

- I brought back your enlarger. - Thanks. You didn't have to.

I was wondering what you thought of these.

There's been a few funerals on Terminal Island.

More pictures I took turned out like this.

What am I doing wrong?

Well, if you asked my old professor,

he'd say it's slow shutter and a shaky hand.

If you asked my Jewish mother,

she'd say you've been taking photos of things you shouldn't be.

But I asked you.

Well, I say a picture captures

a photographer's relationship to the world around him.

And with everything going on,

it's no surprise yours are coming out a little disturbed.

It's a tough time, Chester.

I can only imagine what this is like for you.

Thank you, Professor. I appreciate it.

Luz?

Chester.

Hey.

It's good to see you. How have you been?

So when were you going to tell me?

- Nine months from now? Nine years? - This is my mess.

My mistake.

I need to take care of it myself.

Then why didn't you take the medicine?

Because of my mom.

Your mom?

- Isn't she... - Yeah.

From giving birth to me.

She lost too much blood.

My abuela says that...

all she had time to do was...

name me...

hold me...

and say goodbye.

Jesus.

My mother died so I could live.

All my life, I've been trying to live up to her sacrifice.

I was going to be a nun,

a nurse,

a perfect daughter.

And then you come along and I think...

why do I have to be perfect?

I should have known better.

After my mother died...

my abuela gave this to me.

She says that this lets my mother watch over me.

Crazy, right?

Just some old curanderismo stuff.

But I can't shake the feeling that she's right.

Nothing in this world is an accident.

There's always someone watching, judging...

punishing.

Does your family know?

Despite being deeply Catholic...

neither my father nor my brother took the news

with much mercy or grace.

Then let me help.

How?

Do you have a job now?

A decent place for me to stay?

Yeah.

I'm working at Saint Jerome Orphanage.

The baby's going to grow up there.

Until I can afford to raise a child myself.

You're putting our kid in an orphanage?

Chester.

It's not romantic.

It's not inspiring.

But at least... it's a plan.

I'm not a spy.

I'm a simple fisherman.

I love this country.

I'm not a spy.

I am a simple fisherman.

I love this...

Nakayama, up.

I'm not a spy.

I'm a simple fisherman.

I love this country.

I'm not a spy.

I love this country.

I'm not a spy.

Let's go.

I'm not a spy.

Yeah? What's the next part?

I'm a simple fisherman.

Who was probably transporting fuel to the Emperor's war ships.

Is that why your boss was killed? He figure out what you were up to?

I don't know why Mr. Grichuk died.

Oh right, right. 'Cause... You're just a simple fisherman.

Now prove it.

I don't know how to ice fish.

Well, then it looks like you'll need some luck.

Yuko. The Japanese girl who works here.

Darling, I haven't had a Japanese girl work for me in years.

I swear, she was here.

She read my future in that room.

I don't know what you... imagined you saw.

But there is no Yuko here.

Hey. Another drink.

Be safe when you leave, hun.

I have a client to look after.

OK?

Thank you.

Nakayama.

Do you speak English? How much?

What's going on?

We all have to go to a horse racing track.

We're selling what we can.

Ma?

We can take two suitcases. Only two.

What do we pack?

Will it be cold?

They tell us nothing.

It's going to be OK.

We have 48 hours. We can pack up clothes and other essentials.

We should sell everything else. Who knows what's at the track.

- It won't hurt to have extra cash. - And your father's car?

I can ask my photography professor to hold onto it.

We're going to be fine.

I wish your father could see you.

His boy is becoming a man.

He'd probably say it's about time.

Does it hurt?

Let's see...

Doctors say

that if you pinch really hard on the inside of the arm...

it distracts you from the pain in your knee.

Ready?

I guess so.

OK.

Close your eyes.

This is going to hurt.

Ow!

Owww!

Feeling better?

Yeah? OK. Go on.

Be careful, OK?

Miss Luz! Miss Luz!

This one's Miyagawa, right?

Her name's Alice. Where are you taking her?

Max, Tomoko, everything's going to be alright.

We've got a Saito, a Suzuki

a Watanabe and two Yamamotos coming with us.

The Yamamotos are babies.

- It's for security. - Whose?

Who are these children a threat to?

Alice, listen to me. You're going to be OK.

They're not going to hurt you.

These people are on our side.

Hey, can you be careful, please?

You're going to be OK. Everything is going to be OK, guys.

- What about the unborn? - Excuse me?

If a child's born during the war, what happens to it?

Anyone with even one drop of Jap blood's got to go.

Take it up with Colonel Bendestsen.

Hey. Where are these children's parents?

They don't have any. They're from Saint Jerome.

Every Jap has to report. We mean it.

Ma...

This may not be the best time to tell you,

but I've been going with someone.

Her name is Luz Ojeda. Her family's from Mexico.

Ma, look at me.

Luz is pregnant.

She's going to have my baby.

Why tell me now?

Because I can't go in there with you.

I can't abandon Luz or the baby. I have to help them.

Me and Otosan are your family. It is a government order.

Look, I messed up.

I should have told you.

I shouldn't have gone sneaking around hoping things would just work out.

That's why I have to go now.

Come, Toshiro.

We must not behave as if the world is meant to spin around us.

- Excuse me, where do we stay? - What's your numbers?

742 and 740.

700s that way.

It stinks.

Then we have work to do.

Hey, I'm sorry to barge in.

Chester. What are you doing here?

Are you OK?

Soldiers were here.

They rounded up all the Japanese kids.

I know. That's why I came.

They said just one drop of Japanese blood...

I don't know what to do.

You're living here?

I told you, my father didn't take the news well.

You can't stay.

After the baby is born, they'll take it away.

We need to get you out of state.

Thanks for the concern.

But now's not the time for a romantic gesture.

It's not meant to be.

I'm trying to save this baby which, like it or not, is ours.

I have my father's car and fuel rations.

I've called my professor and figured out the best route.

They're taking babies, Luz.

We've got to do something.

Toshiro, can you take this out?

You take after your mother.

Hey, there you are!

Sorry about that.

This guy's always up to something.

Come on, Toshiro.

Her face...

It's all I see.

She looks at me.

Expecting something.

Wanting something.

Who she?

How should I know? Some woman on the street.

- When do we go back in? - When we have enough firewood.

This woman.

She speak.

Tell her: Nick Okada here.

Ask her...

"What do you want?"

Nick Okada?

That young ainoko at our table.

Yamato-san imagines him to be an obake or yurei.

Each man Nick Okada touch...

disappear.

Maybe we next.

Something has followed us.

Perhaps someone has been out of line.

Rising up trouble.

Well, it couldn't be you, could it?

Cold making us superstitious old woman.

Let's go back inside.

- You made it. - Thank you, Professor Henkoff.

No need for honorifics. Let's get you inside.

You can stay in my guest room.

Let the chaos die down and you can move on.

Thank you.

We need a place I can find work and Luz can get care.

- What kind of work? - Doesn't matter.

Mechanical, factory... Whatever pays the bills.

Maybe in New Mexico?

Some fellow travelers live outside of Santa Fe.

Let me give them a call.

I guess you do have a plan.

Or... at least your professor does.

I'll sleep on the floor.

Yeah.

Thanks.

The bed's probably too small for the both of us anyway. Right?

No one else here.

Step aside or I'll have you restrained.

Sit down and keep your stomach covered.

What's your name, son?

FBI.

We've had a tip a Japanese man was evading the order to evacuate.

- You need to come with us. - Chester.

Don't stand up.

Who's this?

My girl. Don't worry, we're not married.

No laws are broken.

It's OK, ma'am.

It's the Japanese we're concerned about.

Wait! Please! Please wait!

Luz, get back inside.

I'm coming with you.

We're only concerned about the Japanese.

That's why you need to take me too.

I'm carrying one.

Ma.

Chester. You changed your mind.

The FBI kind of changed it for me.

This is Luz.

Luz, this is my mother.

I apologize for the mess.

I wish we had a proper home to welcome you to.

Fellas, over here.

This time, catch enough for us too.

You're not the only ones who are sick of bread and paste.

Nick Okada?

I hope I don't bring bad luck.

Nick...

You believe in bakemono?

- Bakemono? - Shape-shifting spirits.

Yeah, I know. My grandmother believed in it.

Is there a bakemono among us?

- Doing what? - Make men like Imamura disappear.

Don't be ridiculous. There's no such thing as bakemono.

That exactly what bakemono maybe say.

Wait, please!

- What are you doing? - Why are you here?

- Same as you. I have to be. - What happened to Imamura?

- I don't know! - What kind of spirit are you?

I'm not a spirit!

Stop! Please! You old idiots are going to kill me!

Admit what you are!

OK.

I'm not a bakemono.

I'm working for the DOJ.

Justice Department.

I was hired to find spies, but I couldn't find any.

So you fed them names so you could keep this job?

Names of loyal men.

You are a traitor to your own people.

- To your country. - Stop.

Furuya-san, wait.

It is not our decision to make.

It is for the spirits that inhabit this land.

Wherever we are...

North Dakota. We're in North Dakota.

I hope the spirits of North Dakota

treat you more kindly than you've treated us.

Hey...

Hey, wait.

Come back, please.

Please come... Please come back! Help me, please!

Help!

Help me!

I can't move!

- You brought her here? - She brought herself.

Her family's disowned her. With us she's not alone.

Ever get the feeling you're being watched?

Yeah.

All the time.

I'm a Japanese guy in the middle of a war with Japan.

You.

Yuko?

How did you...?

Chester. Chester!

Chester, you have to go!

Yoshida-san!

Are you OK?

Uncle?

Dad, what are you doing?

Shit!

Oh, shit!

- Drop the weapon! - Dad, do what they say.

- Drop the weapon! - Dad, don't do this!

Oh God! Don't shoot him!

This is your last warning!

- Dad! - Don't shoot him!

Put the gun down!

- Dad! - Back up!

Oh my God...

Go.

Tosan?

Dad?

Nobody move!

I don't understand.

Why would he do that?

I don't know.

I've known Yoshida-san my whole life.

That was nothing like him.

Amy, you need anything?

I don't know what to say. I'm so sorry.

Leave her be.

Mom, it's OK.

Please, let me help.

I can find a funeral home.

What did my father see?

Why was he saying you had to leave?

I don't know.

There is evil around you.

It has already taken my husband.

Leave before any more misfortune befalls us.

What?

What evil?

I'm sorry, Chester.

Just...

Just go.

Two bags.

Two suitcases per person.

These are my father's. You killed him.

Two per person.
