Tsuka... Tsuka!

Mr. Shima... I...

Are you all right?

How dare you hit a girl!

Stop! Are you all right?

I'm sorry...

I'm sorry.

Do as you please.

Tsuka...

What did he mean by...

do as I please?

Tokyo Elevator Girls Ep. 5 - To waver

Good morning.

Tsuka...

I was wrong for hitting Mr. Shima, but...

Tsuka!

Tsuka! Don't be angry.

- - It's my fault...

for drinking with a man other than him.

You won't last together if that's going to bother him.

That's the kind of man I fell in love with...

Umm...

I'm going to your department store today...

Since I'll be seeing Mr. Shima...

I'll apologize to him.

I don't want things to go bad because of me.

Is that how it is?

Can things go bad just because of that?

I guess we weren't much of a couple.

Don't say that, or it'll become true.

I don't understand anymore.

Thanks.

You protected me last night, too.

It's nothing.

Wait... wait.

You sure walk fast.

Don't...

What?

Don't walk by me. What if Mr. Shima sees us?

Mr. Yoshimoto.

It's Mizuki. Thank you for the last time.

I didn't do anything.

Are you here for work?

Yes, to get the ad copy.

It's cold in Tokyo, isn't it?

What?

A child used this as a toilet.

What's the matter with today's mothers?

Wipe it.

No!

Pretend it's chocolate.

I can't!

There you go.

Wipe it harder.

More towards the bottom.

It's clean!

Wash it.

No.

I wiped it!

What are you doing!

Be serious about your work.

I'm sorry...

How did Chief Maeno train you?

It's your fault!

You must've had it rough.

Are you still keeping in touch with Maeno?

Maybe I should ask you aout this time.

I'm joking.

What a guy.

Sir, you have lint.

Thanks.

See?

Ms. Noda, this is next week's list.

Tsukasa.

There's a mistake on the ad for the art gallery.

That was their mistake.

Got that?

Is something wrong?

No.

Let's change these, too.

Like this.

It may stick out, but you can do it.

Yes, we can.

- Coffee? - No, thank you.

I'm sorry about last night.

I need the ad in two days.

The usual, all right?

And...

I hope you don't hang around Tsukasa.

This car is going up.

That's strange...

Thank you for shopping at Sogo.

You fought with Mr. Shima, didn't you?

Are you tired of dating him?

A bit selfish and willful...

I'm talking about you!

You took him from me, so don't give up.

I'm not...

You knew he was like that.

That's true.

It's our shift. Let's go.

What a strange man.

Hey, let's have a one-pot party.

It's your treat...

since I have to cheer you up.

May I invite Ms. Mizuki?

Sure.

I have the late shift, so I'll be a little late.

Okay...

I made dinner reservations.

I'll get the car.

Ehm...

I...

I made plans for tonight.

With whom?

Friends... really.

I'm sorry.

There's no need to apologize.

No, but...

How about tomorrow?

I'm entertaining clients.

The day after?

Business trip...

It's not going well...

Ms. Sawaki.

I'll help you buy the ingredients.

I'll go on ahead...

See you.

This sure is expensive.

- Excuse me. - Yes?

Isn't this rotting?

No...

There's discoloration here.

There. Look!

Mark it down.

Then, I'll buy it.

I can't...

In business you have to take some losses.

What are you doing?

He told me he'd mark down the meat by half.

Let's buy some, too.

No...

What luck!

I'll buy fish tonight.

Isn't something wrong here?

The eyes are dead.

No, they're not.

My family runs a fish market. I can tell!

Mark it down.

Again?

The fish is marked down, too?

Hey...

You're acting funny.

Why?

You're ignoring me.

No, I'm not.

I hope not...

Why don't we invite him?

Okay.

Would you like to join us for dinner?

This evening...

Are you busy?

No, but my family's going to call me.

You live away from them?

Yes, so our phone calls are important.

I wonder if my daughter's doing all right.

Haruna's in kindergarten.

Really?

- I'll put this on the stove. - Yes, thanks.

I guess you adore your own children.

Maybe he didn't want to part with his child.

You mean Chief Maeno?

He carried around a picture...

Don't... you've come this far in forgetting him.

Chief Maeno didn't choose you.

You're right...

You're right.

Are you going to have the child?

Good evening.

Toru! When did you get here?

This afternoon.

Come in.

We're cooking right now.

Great! I'm starving.

Where are you staying for over two weeks?

A run-down hotel.

I'll come by.

Sure.

Good evening.

This is my co-worker, Ms. Mizuki.

Doomo.

He's my childhood friend...

Nishiyama Toru.

He's studying to get into a university.

That must be tough.

No, it's...

Cat's got your tongue?

No...

Where's Mr. Yoshimoto?

Probably at his place.

Why don't you invite him?

We did, but he turned us down.

Why?

I don't know.

- Ah, Toru! - Good evening.

Thank you for letting me sleep over the last time.

You didn't have to get me anything. I accept.

Karinto! I love these!

Join us at Tsukasa's place.

I made my dinner.

Have it tomorrow.

You have to eat fish the day you buy it.

What?

Something is wrong.

Something happened between you and Tsukasa.

Of course not.

What?

You can't face Tsukasa because of what you did.

You've got it wrong!

Tell me!

You've got it wrong.

You've got it wrong!

You've got it wrong!

How did you make the broth?

Well...

You have to use kelp.

I forgot to buy it.

I guess instant will have to do.

You avoided Tsukasa's eyes.

Observant, aren't you?

Sorry I'm late.

You're just in time.

Sorry my place is so small.

You can sit here.

It looks delicious!

Hold it!

What?

The flavour hasn't soaked in yet.

Who's this old man?

Old man?

Mr. Yoshimoto lives across of me.

This is suspicious.

Isn't it?

I didn't think so...

That's because you have a pure mind.

Who's this nerd?

My childhood friend.

From Shodo-shima? No wonder.

Well, excuse me!

It's about ready to eat.

Let's celebrate.

I know Toru must've passed the exam.

Let's toast.

I didn't pass.

Wasn't it a sure thing?

Don't worry. There are other universities.

I don't like you.

I'm trying to cheer you up!

Let's eat.

Recently Naoko hasn't made any time for me.

You're lucky since Tsukasa's in love with you.

I don't know about that.

Sure... I thought you had a date with her tonight.

Did you reject her? Not again. Don't do that!

She turned me down. She said she had plans.

She's quite a woman.

Aren't things going well?

Sure...

they are.

I've never seen you drink over a woman.

You're serious about her.

Spin over a beer for me.

I'm spinning it.

That's a sad joke.

That's not done yet.

Radish has to cook for a while.

As long as it's edible...

Eat it when it's tasty.

How about this?

That's fine.

How about this?

Eat what you want!

You're only kind to women.

Don't be a baby.

I'm just pointing it out.

Could you be...?

Yoshimoto-san!

I'm teasing.

You're terrible.

You shouldn't be friends with her.

All right. Eat up.

You don't want to fail tomorrow.

Will I fail?

No, you won't. Didn't you study hard for a year?

Sure, but...

Don't worry.

Kaoru, you're so kind.

Her boyfriend is lucky.

What's the matter?

Are you all right?

Yes. Don't come in.

Was something bad in here?

We're all fine...

Morning sickness?

Don't be rude!

It's a joke.

Are you all right?

I'll make you something light.

Let me see what I have...

I have cucumber and kelp.

Hello?

Yes, this is the Sawaki residence.

Mr. Shima?

He's Mr. Shima.

Hello?

Can I see you now?

Everyone's over here...

I'm at the park...

But...

I'll wait until you come.

Hello?

What did he say?

I have to go out?.

Where?

I'll be right back.

Have some.

Is something wrong?

No...

What is it?

You came after all.

I don't like to be cut off like that.

Come over to my place.

Okay?

You're drunk.

Yes, I am.

I'm leaving.

Don't leave.

Everyone's waiting.

Yoshimoto, too?

What's so good about him? He's married.

I don't like or dislike him.

But you'll get so drunk with him that you can't walk home?

Mr. Shima, you don't believe in me.

If you did, you'd laugh it off.

So I'm wrong?

I'm at fault, right?

Do you... like me?

Stop it!

What did I see in you?

Why did I ever like you?

Close it. It's cold!

Something may have happened to her.

Don't worry. He's her boyfriend.

They may have gone to a hotel.

Hey!

I need to buy some cigarettes.

I had to get some cigarettes.

Cold?

Yes.

It's warm.

What's wrong?

I'm back!

Welcome back.

I bumped into her.

Hey, Toru!

What did Mr. Shima want?

He just happened to be in the neighborhood.

Let's drink up!

Let's heat up the food.

I'm leaving.

Stay.

I'll be going, too.

Let's drink until dawn.

It's obvious you want to be alone.

You can leave it.

But...

Really.

Sorry to leave it a mess.

Thanks for dinner.

I had a lot of fun.

Good night.

Be careful.

See you tomorrow.

I guess you're staying over my place.

Sorry about that.

Walk.

Put on your shoes.

Good night.

Tell me if there's anything I can do.

Thank you.

Why...

Why are you so kind to me?

I'll be going.

You won't pass tomorrow's exam.

Tsukasa!

You like her, too.

(Daddy's face)

Can't be...

Not me...

It's been a long time

since I ate with so many people.

It's nice.

It's just noisy.

True...

Aren't you pregnant?

Shall I introduce you to a doctor?

I know a good one that's inexpensive.

I want to give it more thought.

It'll be too late...

That's fine, too.

You're pretty irresponsible.

The child's not going to have a father.

You're not financially well off, either.

I can manage...

if I really want to.

You're odd.

You don't have to choose the hard path.

It doesn't concern me, though.

- You're home early. - Quiet.

What happened?

Some oil splashed on me.

Show me.

It's not much.

It's red. Did you put medicine on it?

- No, miso... - Miso?

It's the best for burns.

We have medicine here.

Thanks.

Don't give me the creeps.

Creeps?

I don't want to hear that from you.

Be careful.

Sis, how are you?

I've fallen in love.

His name is Ikemoto, and

he's the captain of the soccer team.

He doesn't notice me at all,

but I feel happy.

Isn't being in love amazing?

I feel as though I'm not myself.

Why do people fall in love?

Does the feeling last?

Is it true that you can be hurt easily

when you're too much in love?
