Life's Punchline (Skit Begins)
Episode #3
Translations: neet21
QC: tsunaideiku

This skit is titled Miracle Water, please enjoy.

(sfx: knocks on the door, pulls the door)

Oh, brother.

Long time no see, brother.

- Eh? What happens?
- Well, have a seat first.

What? Could you please stop
talking like that?

My younger brother has a dirty mind.

- It seems so.
- Who's that guy?

Brother ...

your life must not be going so well, I guess.

- Answer my question!
- Well, listen.

I'll answer while you drink this water.

What's this?

- Miracle water.
- Huh?

It was infused with the great
Windy Koga's cosine power.

So it's miracle water.

I knew it!

I've smelt something bad ever
since entering this building.

You don't have to worry, that miracle water
is tasteless and odorless.

Brother, what are you doing?
Cut it out already!

Take one sip and the earth will dance~

Two sips and the angels will smile~

If you think you've been tricked, go ahead!

I'm leaving.

Hey, what are you doing?
Get out of the way!

You've come all this way, at least meet with
Windy Koga-sama before you leave.

Aren't you Windy Koga?

My sister watches Macbeth's videos
in her spare time.

This one she likes the most.

The skit with a multi-level marketing theme.

She often watches it after we've fought.

Didn't I ask you to wash this separately?

Then do it yourself.

Just earlier, I pointed out that she put
the wrong laundry into the washing net,

we got into a big argument.

And she started watching the
videos as if out of spite.

“If you're that mad at me,

then I'll set my foot in this place too”

She looks at me as if to say that.

That's the most horrid threat.

It's been a while since we've lived together.

I think my sister is insane.

Seriously insane.

♪～ You should drink this miracle water

(discussing a skit material)

Don't you think Nakahama is so mysterious?

What do you mean?

She seems like she could've easily gotten a more
interesting job at a much better company.

And it seems she was working for a prestigious
company before coming here.

Is that so?

I thought she'd quit as soon as
she found a good new job, but

she's surprisingly stayed on.

And that's why she's so mysterious.

Sorry, please take this.

Welcome.
Good evening

- For 3 people as usual.
- I'll take you to your table.

- Please enjoy your meal!
- Thank you.

Macbeth forbids being involved
with fangirls, but

what about fangirls' sisters?

You mean Tsumugi?

- Tsumugi who?
- She's Nakahama's sister.

- The girl you drank with the other day?
- It's not about her.

I'm not talking about Tsumugi
or anything like that.

Right? You're a maniac for hot
and mature women.

Just say I like older women.

Whose sister are you after?

- Your boss, right?
- What? His boss has a sister?

He does, they're twins who reached the
age of 60 and are both single.

Twins who reached 60 and are both single?

I just wanted to make it clear,

where the line is in terms of Macbeth's rules.

Well, why don't you just do as you please?

We're disbanding in a couple
of months anyway.

Eh!? Didn't you tell Junpei about it?

- Tell me about what?
- Ah, that's ...

The other day, Mr. Kusunoki called me.

He told me to rethink the disbandment.

That bastard acts like a manager
only at times like this.

Junpei has to deal with Nacchan,

so no matter how much we rethink it,
it won't change our decision.

You said so, right.

Well, Natsumi said ...

that it's okay to continue.

Oh, really?

My parents naturally are against it but

if it's on the condition that we continue until
we're 30 in 2 years, or something like that,

I think I can convince them.

So, does that mean you're willing to continue
if you can convince them?

No, it's not about me.
Will Haruto's parents okay with that?

They'll be fine with it.

- Oh, he gets his brother's support.
- Right.

- But I heard those women ...
- What is it?

Your boss sisters are a little bit ...

Thank you for visiting us again.

Our store is now open on shortened hours.

It's been almost a year and a half since
I started living with my sister.

It all started

with a phone call from my mother who was
worried and wanted me to go check on her,

since she hadn't heard from her in a while.

What?

- Here is.
- Thank you.

Sis?

Sis ...

It stinks!

My sister who I hadn't seen in a while
had not bathed for a week,

and hadn't eaten a proper meal.
She was in a very dangerous condition.

Not too hot?

I bathed her every day after that,

fed her nutritious food,

Moved her to a sunny spot when
she woke up in the morning

to stimulate a release of serotonin,

and took her out on walks.

As she gradually recovered, she slowly told me
about quitting her company,

and how her boyfriend had dumped her.

I just have appropriate responses and
didn't ask any deeper questions.

(Make Shiraz: Hiring Opening Staff)

She finally found a part-time job,

and it seemed like she was starting
to get her life back on track.

Thank you for having me here.

Have you decided what to order?

Calling the waitress Miss
sounds bossier, right?

Then she fell for the unsuccessful
comedy group who came as customers.

Yukawa Umitaro!

In her spare time, she would binge-watch videos
that didn't seem to be that interesting to me.

Come on, you guys have to eat properly.

I had noticed that she had given her own names

to the three tropical fish I got as pets.

Junpei's misbehaving again~?

When I found out that they were the names
of the members of Macbeth,

I couldn't stop the nasty feeling I felt.

Shunta, Shunta.

Sigh.

Since finding out Macbeth had
decided to disband,

she's been sighing deeply whenever
she sees the word disband.

From: Mother
How are things going?
Is Rihoko all right?

That's why I haven't been able to reply
to my mother's text.

Has your sister always been the weird one?

Why do you treat her like she's weird just
for being a fan of Macbeth?

I mean, it's just weird.

She was a very respectable person,

I thought she would have a happy future
just as a matter of course.

That's why, my sister who's lived so earnestly

becoming so easily unhappy

was quite a shock to me.

- Here you go.
- Thank you.

The more earnest a person is,
the more easily they tumble down.

They should've just
reached out for help,

but they didn't want to
get others involved,

so they just held it back.

Just like you.

What are you talking about?
I'm the complete opposite.

I'm dragging everyone into
this bog with me.

Well, I'm sure it'd be fun being
in a swamp with Yoshie.

- So, do you want to give it a try sometime?
- Let me think about it.

- What are you scared of?
- He's scared of you.

What's he scared of?

He's scared of that kind of thing.

So, what's so weird about Nakahama?

She washes plastic wrap after using
it once and uses it again.

My mother even washes aluminum
foil after using it.

She did laundry with leftover bathwater.

That's what my brother used to do
when he lived alone.

It's not that she's weird,
it's just that she's very wise, right?

Then what about this?

Of all Macbeth's skits,
the one she likes the most is

this Miracle Water.

- Really, why?
- I don't know.

Did you say something about
Haruto's brother?

I didn't.
I said nothing about it.

I don't mind you talking about it.
It's not like I'm hiding it.

If we're talking about who's in a concerning situation,
then my brother is more so by a long shot.

Nakahama's favorite skit, Miracle Water,

is based on a true story of my brother's.

♪～ Because you are such a failure!
- Yeah!

♪～ The stupid human being should listen
to the emperor's advice!
- Wow!

♪～ Drink this miracle water!
♪～Drink it up！

♪～Failure will become a success!
♪～ Glory will last forever!

♪～ You can get it at a cheap price
♪～ Drink it in your house ...

♪～ Just drink miracle water!

Brother, what happened to you?

Why? Why don't you believe in this miracle?

Please go back to normal, brother~

♪～ Because you are such a failure!
- Yeah!

(Minowa Liquor Store)

Where's dad?

He's out delivering, of course.

- Don't be like that.
- What have you come here for?

I'll tell you when dad gets back,
so I don't need to say it twice.

It's about Macbeth, right?

How did you know?

I'm fine now.

Fine with what?

It was sometime last week, I think.

Mikoto and Mitsuhiro came to talk
to us about serious stuff.

I know. Sis also called me asking
if I could come over.

Mitsuhiro ...

is going to take over this liquor store.

He what? Why?

He knows a lot about computers, right.

In the future, businesses like ours

will need to be able to adapt
to that kind of thing.

Your dad's overjoyed that he's finally got an heir.

No way, Mitsuhiro taking over
our store isn't right.

He said he'll quit his job next month,

and learn how to run the business
under your dad.

You've got to be kidding!

The company he's working for now is
offering early retirement

and he'll get pretty good retirement pay.

Seems Yumiko's been wanting him to
change jobs for a long time,

and they both like sake, right?

I like it too.

Anyway, you don't need to worry
about us anymore.

Are you saying I'm not good enough?

You've been so reluctant up until now,

stop interfering the moment we're
about to reach a final decision.

Don't you think you're being too selfish?

It's no use talking to you,
I'll talk to dad when he gets back.

(Minowa Liquor Store)

- How's the karaage?
- It's the best.

Ever since I was little,
I've always been proud of my brother.

He was always one of the top students in
both academics and athletics.

In his third year of high school,

he had the ability to pass the entrance
exam to Tokyo University.

He was so versatile that he had been offered
soccer scholarships by top universities.

The company attributes the strong performance to
new projects announced in May last year ...

He got a job at a foreign securities
firm and got married.

He was blessed with a child and built
a splendid house in his twenties.

It's no exaggeration to say that it was
because of my brilliant brother,

that my parents tolerated me continuing
to work as a comedian

- Go on, hold her.
- What?

- Is that okay?
- Definitely. Come on.

It wasn't until two years ago that I first
noticed something was wrong.

- Good work, Haruto.
- Ah, you are here!

- This is for you.
- Ah, sorry you had to.

Have a drink of it with the others.

And let me know what you think.

No, let me know what you think
of the show first.

What, you're ignoring me?

Blessed Divine Water.

Make a business deal!
Blessed Divine Water!
The secret of successful people
attracting great luck lies in this.
The water extracted from a 1000-year-old tree

How is it?
Have you tried drinking the water?

I'm begging you, don't send me any more.

Cut this out! Wake up!

Do you think I'm gonna be fooled
by some weird product?

You've been duped.

An unbelievable miracle happened to me

so I'm offering it to you
specially for your sake.

Your child was just born,
it's an important time for you.

This is not the time for this.

She's going back to her parents'
place with the child.

See? That water is the reason
why your misfortune started.

It's the Water God's guidance.

Seriously, don't call it the “Water God,” for real.

Don't laugh.

Or you'll be punished by the gods.

It's already happened.

Not long after, he divorced his wife.

He was fired from his job, and by the time
he woke up from his brainwashed state,

he had lost every single one of
his dear friends from school.

Some people say it's
a weakness of the mind

that makes people fall into
multi-level marketing schemes, but

it's a different case with my brother.

Even when his work was at a standstill
or his family life wasn't going well,

he didn't complain even once,
he was such a strong person

Haruto's here.

He didn't ask for help from
the people around him,

and his strength unwittingly led him
to his loneliness.

The reason why my brother fell
into depression was us

who putting a heavy burden of expectation on
him because of his excellence

and being so relieved by his reliability.

It was our family's fault.

Does he ever leave his room?

He hardly ever comes out.

Except to go to the bathroom.

It seems that after we go to bed,

he takes a shower.

- Oh really?
- But only for about 5 minutes.

That sounds like a prisoner in jail.

I heard you guys announced your disbandment.

How did you know?

Toshiharu must've seen it on the Internet
or something, dunno.

It was so difficult for him.

He came out of his room in a frenzy

and went on a rampage,
ranting that it was his fault.

It's not his fault.

Every time you returned home,
your dad would say,

that you guys were going
to disband this year.

He persistently reminded
you of that, right?

You mean he overheard it?

He might be listening to what
we're saying right now.

He must have thought
if he was more normal,

you wouldn't have been put
under such pressure.

He felt responsible for that.

Maybe I should continue a little
longer for his sake.

No, I did of course plan to
disband the group, but

Mr. Kusunoki from the office called me up

and told me to cancel the disbandment.

You've got to be kidding me.

I'm not saying that I want to continue.

It's because Mr. Kusunoki and
Shunta want to.

Then what was the point of
your promise 10 years ago?

Don't be so mad.

It's hard for me when the neighbors
ask me about you guys.

What can I tell them?

You should think a little more

about your family and your own future.

Think before you speak on it.

Brother ...

It's not your fault that we're disbanding.

Why don't you take a bath once in a while?

It's a waste if it's just mom and dad
who use the water.

Since when Junpei and
I formed the group,

the one who supported and understood
Macbeth most was my brother.

My younger brother Haruto

is in a 3-member comedy
group called Macbeth.

They're going to have their first independent
live show next month.

Even though it was an important
speech for his big day,

he spent so much time
promoting Macbeth.

The bride's relatives were quite put off.

They're here to celebrate with us today.

Macbeth Trio, come in!

This short skit is titled Marriage Ceremony.

(sfx: wedding music is playing;
the bride enters the wedding hall)

Because of the fact that

he spent so long raising the bar so high,

the hall became as quiet as a funeral.

Which one shall I choose?

Are you going to pick the groom
at the wedding hall?

- Ah, I'll marry you!
- Winner!

Don't get married like that!

My brother forced himself to smile in
an attempt to cheer us up.

- Promise!
- I promise to stand by you.

Towards the end,
he started to laugh so hard

that he was holding his stomach with tears
streaming down his face.

I haven't heard him laugh for years.

I wonder if there will ever be a day when my whole
family can laugh together again.

Kan! Kan!

Hey, do the other two members have girlfriends?

Excuse me?

The tsukkomi guy and the blond hair guy.

I don't think now either of them has.

Onda, are you after them?

It's not me, it's Nakahama, our part-timer.

Are you serious?

Do you not think it's odd?

She never changes her shift time
the week you come,

and she doesn't even let the other
waitresses pick up your order.

Well, she seems to be
a genuine fan of Macbeth.

You wouldn't expect her to be
a genuine fan of comedy, though.

- Right?
- That sounds strange.

I don't think there's any reason
for her to be working

at my place, other than trying
to get with one of you guys.

If that's the case,
she might be trying to get me.

Tsumo! 8700 points.

I've had enough with this woman.

Right~

I'm back.

Hm?

Welcome back.

- Welcome back.
- Come on in.

- Tako!
- Here we go!

Hello!

Hey, welcome.

- Let's do it very carefully.
- Tsumugi, can I have a word with you?

It's fine to just sprinkle it over.

- Tsumugi~
- Yes?

Shun-chan, can you flip them over?

Okay, leave it to me.

Why are you letting Shunta into our place?

You told me the other day that
I could invite my friends.

He is not your friend,
he is a customer at your store.

My boss isn't fussy about that kind of thing.

That's not the problem here!

Someone's coming.
Shall I go check?

Ah, I'll go check!

What’s the meaning of this?

It wasn't me who invited them.

It's more fun if we have more
people at a takoyaki party.

Oh, if it's too much trouble,
I can send them home.

No, that's not it.

Please enjoy your meal here!

Then why are you so upset over this?

I'm not. It's just embarrassing to be
seen at your house.

- Excuse me for intruding.
- Here you go.

Huh~ The next-door apartment building
is so different from ours.

Right?
I thought you wouldn't come.

Junpei insisted on coming.

Ah, you don't need to take it off.

But if I don't wash my feet,
they'll smell horrid.

It's okay.

My girlfriend always tells me to wash my feet
before entering the room.

But it's fine at my place, really.

I have to wash them, especially
after got home from work.

I think I'd hate it more for my bathroom
to be seen than that.

Oh, well, should I go back to my place and
shower first then come back here?

Um ... okay! I don't mind.

- Go ahead, use it.
- Sorry to bother you.

- I can put sauce on this now, right?
- Yeah.

Oh, shall I serve katsuobushi as well?

We might need more plates
and chopsticks.

Go get them yourself.

I feel so refreshed~!

Don't hang the towel you used to wipe
your feet around your neck.

The towel you used to wipe
your feet with isn't dirty.

But you washed them
because they smelt bad.

Please put the towel in
the laundry basket.

- I'll wash it then return it to you.
- You don't have to.

But I wouldn't be able to
get my mind off of it.

Junpei is quite a troublesome person, right?

- He's the most troublesome.
- Look who's talking!

He doesn't like it when I don't put condiments
back in the fridge after each use.

What do you mean?

When we're having takoyaki

we'll use mayonnaise and sauce, right.

But he hates it when we keep them
out while we're eating,

so he puts them back in
the fridge after each use.

I don't get why you do so.

Because they need to stay refrigerated.

It's fine to leave them out for
just half an hour or an hour.

He'll get mad if we leave them
for even just a minute.

It's only this far to the fridge.

Besides, I don't force you to do it.

I take it with me when I need to.

I want to use it, but you put it back right away

so I need to take it out again, it's annoying.

I'm the one who pays for all the condiments.

So you guys have no business telling me
how to manage them. Right?

Neither of us here cares about it.

- Yeah, we leave it out quite often.
- That's normal.

He's the one who's abnormal.

Ah, yes! Junpei.

This sauce and mayonnaise belong
to Nakahamas.

- You can't put them away without permission.
- I know that, shut up!

- Why don't we eat while it's still warm?
- Let's eat! Thanks.

Let's dig in!

Wow, this looks delicious.

What made you guys plan to
eat takoyaki together today?

Oh, why was it?

We were talking about food made
of flour at the shop.

Oh, that's right.

And since Tsumugi has a hot plate for takoyaki here,
I said we should have some.

He kept saying he wanted to come over.

If he wanted to come over,
you should've told me.

But if she told you, you'd say no,
so she kept it a secret, right.

You guys aren't dating, right?

- We are 100 percent not dating.
- Why would we?

If you both deny it to that extent,
I'm more doubtful.

Don't you have someone of the opposite gender
that you really get along with,

- but will never fall in love with?
- That person is me!

Isn't it shocking on the inside to hear that?

Not at all ...
because we both feel the same way.

This is only the fifth time I've met Shun-chan
but he's like a big brother to me.

I'm the big brother who also has
the face of a little brother!

Is that so?

So, Nakahama, do you have a boyfriend?

Huh? No, I don't.

- Why did you suddenly ask?
- Because ...

she gives off the vibe that
she'd make a good wife.

Always being in the kitchen and such.

- I'm the one who usually does all the cooking.
- I see, that's surprising.

How long you've been single?

Hmm ...
About a year and a half, I guess.

Wasn't it around that time
where you quit your job?

That's right.

I was dumped a while before that.

I'm really curious as to why
you were dumped.

But if you don't want to tell us,
it's totally fine.

We'd been dating for about six months,

and there were already talks of marriage.

I thought he was a sincere person,

we looked for the wedding venue
and the wedding rings.

We were trying our best to find those.

Just before I quit my job,
I was having dinner with him,

and he told me he wanted
to get married.

I casually replied that
I was planning to do the same,

and then a different
woman's name came up.

Of course, I wanted to stay
with him forever,

so I did my best to look
at wedding stuff and such, but

it was all just preparation for him
to marry another woman.

That's terrible.

But on the other hand,
don't you think it's good?

Right?

It's good you didn't end up with that jerk.

Why did you call him a jerk in a polite way?

Did you ever meet that guy, Tsumugi?

No, but I heard from my mother about someone
who was thinking about getting married.

I didn't think that's what
she was talking about.

You wouldn't be able to focus on work
if something that shocking happened to you, right?

Not at all, it has nothing to do
with why I quit my job.

- Oh, really?
- Yes.

Well, of course, there were times
when I felt depressed

by the shock that I couldn't even
look at other people, but ...

- But you couldn't deny us, right?
- Why?

I mean, out of all the comedians,
she chose us.

She's got a good eye.

Be quiet, you guys.

It's Nakahama's turn to speak right now.

Well, it's strange for me to say this but ...

I'm the type of person who does their best
to do what they're told.

In the same department ...

there was a case where
we had a problem with a client.

They asked me to help them out
because they were in trouble,

and I cooperated to the best of my ability.

Then the client's complaints

started being directed at me.

And before I knew it, I was put on
the front line of that problem.

Everyone kept saying,
“We'll leave you in charge”

or “You're the only one who can help us,”
or “We're so grateful,” but

before I knew it,
I found myself in a situation

where I was the only one who was held
responsible for the problem.

You didn't complain?
It was never your problem, to begin with.

Well, once I threw a complaint out,

I knew the people who would be
put in a difficult position

so I just couldn't say anything.

But the hardest part for me,

was that the people who pushed
the responsibility on me

were blaming me for the
problem behind my back.

Before I knew it, I was completely isolated from
everyone within the company.

It was the same with the guy I was dating.

Is it because I was trying too hard, or I was trying
my best in the wrong way?

I didn't know what was going on anymore.

And then, when the problem
had finally settled down,

I submitted my resignation,

Got off the elevator,
and went outside.

I went to a standing bar and
drank from noon.

I got dead drunk and went back
to the park to drink.

And at night ...

on my way home,

my bag with my tablet and phone in it ...

I threw it into the river.

After that ...

I couldn't even step out of
my place for a month.

If Tsumugi ...

hadn't come to my place,

I wonder what would have happened to me.

Well, I've finally recovered to the point
where I can work part-time now.

To be honest, I'm still scared to try my best,

and I cut corners where I can.

I'm afraid of getting hurt by
trying too hard.

But ...

It's sad, right?

I never thought ...

that the day would come when

I would suppress my willings to do
my best at something.

I never chose to not do my best.

It wasn't supposed to be like this.

Thanks, sorry to trouble you.

- Hey, Sis.
- What?

That's the towel that Junpei
wiped his feet with.

No way!

I washed my feet, so it's clean.

- Oh, right.
- Don't use that!

- Why? It's okay, right?
- Of course not!

- It's completely tasteless and odorless, see?
- Isn't saying tasteless weird?

We'll just have Junpei take
responsibility for this.

Then I'll take the responsibility!

Well, I'll report what you've said to Natsumi.

- Please don't!
- I will!

Please, don't do this!
It will be a critical time for me.

- I'll definitely report it.
- Please!

- You shouldn't use it!
- Eh, it's okay.

Make a call! Call Natsumi! Call her!

- Let's call her right now.
- Hey, my phone!

What are you doing?
How long are you gonna keep sniffing it?

- I said don't!
- Be kind, please!

- You're such a good guy, right?
- Wait a damn minute!

- Grab me some, too.
- Okay.

Thanks.

I'm going to get some liquor.

You don't have to.
There's still plenty of happoshu here.

We don't have enough snacks, right?

- There's something fishy going on here.
- There is.

Ah, nothing fishy here.

- There is.
- Definitely.

♪～ You can get it at a cheap price
Drink it up in your home ...

♪～ Just drink up this miracle water

Wow～！

♪～ Because you are such a failure!

Oh, hello, mom?

I'm sorry it took me so
long to contact you.

She is okay.

Right.

You don't have to worry anymore.

Yes ...
About me?

It's bad.

I'm in trouble.

You went home, right?
How was it?

Nothing much happened.

How's your brother?
Is he fine?

He's still holed up in his room.

Really? He doesn't come out at all?

He only comes out to take a shower but

he's back in his room in
less than five minutes.

Just like the sauces at this place.

Why?

Because Junpei puts them in
the refrigerator right away.

So they've never been out for
more than five minutes.

Why do you compare it to that?

- Did he watch that skit?
- I don't know.

I tried to talk to him,
but he didn't give any response.

- Maybe he's a little angry.
- Don't mock my situation.

He used to be the kind of brother
who could take a joke.

And even if I made fun of him, he'd laugh
back at you twice as hard.

I always wanted him to say “Screw you!”
when he got mad.

He would go completely silent.

He just wouldn't say a thing.

Hey, let's call him now.

Why? He just ignored me yesterday.

Whether he picks up or not, it's okay.

The thing is to keep knocking on the door.

Your call history will give out

a message that you're worried about him.

Hello? How are you?

Hey, what's up?

Put on your pajamas,
you'll catch a cold.

Nothing, I just wanted to have a drink
with you since it's been a while.

I'd love to, but I'm not as free as you think.

I'm sure you can go out for just a bit.

Are you in trouble?

It's not that I'm in trouble, but

Uhm ...

I'm at a crossroads in my life right now.

How about tomorrow night?

You're not busy, right?
Don't act like you're busy.

It's just a coincidence. I have a full schedule
this month except for tomorrow.

Yeah, okay.

See you tomorrow.

Thanks.

Sis ...

why do you like the
Miracle Water skit that much?

Oh, that?

Though the older brother is getting
more and more out of control,

I find it oddly endearing to see the little brother's desperation
as he refuses to give up on his older brother.

I get it now.

Hm? What do you get?

Never mind.

Can I have some?
What's it?

Vegetable juice.

That's enough! Enough!
Stop it! Hey~

- Here you go!
- Thank you!

- Welcome!
- Hello!

Oh~! Nacchan, you're here!

Chef, it's been a while.

It really has.

- Table for one, right?
- Stop it already!

- You want me to get you a fresh beer?
- Please.

I'll show you my skill.

You shouldn't lick the foam on the beer!

Shut the hell up!
You're so loud.

Ah~ I'm so hungry.

- Are you coming home from work?
- Of course.

I haven't eaten anything yet either.

Makabe-sensei isn't coming?

He'll be here soon, I just got a call.

Really? I'm super excited to see him.

- Here is the menu book.
- Thanks.

What should I get~?

(Brother)

Hello?

Hello, brother?

When I get remarried ...

Remarried?

you should perform again
at my wedding party.

Are you planning to remarry?

Not before Macbeth gets popular.

- Brother ...
- You do what you like.

It's the duty of the eldest son ...

to keep his parents quiet.

No matter how hard you try to convince me,
otherwise, it's futile.

Did you see that skit?

That skit went nowhere too.

If you're going to mess with your family,

you have to at least make it
a little more interesting.

It was on purpose.

Oh really?

You liked watching us
making lame jokes, right?

Yeah, that was the funniest skit ever.

You're mean.

What the heck have I been doing?

You have been in a high state of
brainwashing, but you're fine now.

Thank you so much!
But how did you save me?

Whoever wears this miracle bracelet
will have any wish come true!

So my brother will too ...

(sfx: door is opening)

Brother, am I now the kind of brother you want?

Oh, damn it!

Why doesn't this miracle bracelet work?

You already know, right?

No matter how hard you try to convince me,
otherwise, it's futile.

Ah, brother! I'm begging you!

Wash your feet already!

Brother~!
