Master Sergeant Bingham

Sergeant May

Everyone here is suspected of owning concealed weapons and

conspiring to plan a rebellion against Occupation Forces.

Rebellion?

We're just a normal, wholesome company!

President...

What is it, Takagi-san?

What is it, Sakai!

What?

Hand grenades...

20, or more.

I'm sorry for not telling you.

You're all under arrest.

Go, go, go! Go!

Hey, you too

Wait a minute! He just joined the company. He doesn't know anything.

Hey, Fukuko. Tell them in English.

Uh, uh~ Uh~...

He... he, he...

All the men, hurry!

I'll go with them.

Why! What were hand grenades doing there!

- I don't know either. - Fukuko!

- Bottle up Daneihon and ship them out. - Manpei-san!

Now? At a time like this!

And salt! Have the salt delivered to the Monopoly Bureau! Got that? Fukuko!

- Salt too! - Manpei-san!

Fukuko!

Fukuko!

They were all taken away?

There were hand grenades in the warehouse. They think we were planning a rebellion.

- Rebellion? - Why were such things there!

Mom, be quiet!

So you and Mom are all alone there?

- Yes. - Fukuko should have

explained to them in English.

I don't know when they'd be able to come home.

Weren't you speaking English when you were working at the hotel?

- It's been 4 years already. - What does that matter now!

Are you going over to Auntie Fukuko's?

I may not be able to come home for a while.

- About how long? - I don't know.

Something terrible happened at Uncle Manpei's company.

Was Kanbe-san taken by Occupation Forces too?

- All the men were. - Taka, take care of the 3 kids, okay?

- Make meals and do the laundry too. - Okay.

Yoshino, you help her too.

Listen to your sisters, okay?

- Yeah. - Okay.

I'm counting on you then. I'll see you.

Morimoto Gen.

Your name?

It's Sakuma Haruo.

What's your name?

K-Komatsubara Kanji.

- Your name? - It's Kuranaga Hiroshi.

Nagakubo Yosuke.

- Minegishi Masatoshi. - Akatsu Yujiro.

Speak Japanese, idiot.

- I'm Masuda Seiichi. - Hori Kazunori.

What's your name?

It's Kanbe Shigeru.

- We haven't done anything wrong... - You just answer our question.

I'm Nomura Taizo.

You knew that the hand grenades were there, didn't you?

- Yes. - By whose order were you collecting the hand grenades?

Th-they were there to begin with.

What were you planning to do with those hand grenades?

We were catching fish.

Fish?

- Fish? - Yes.

- You were catching fish with hand grenades? - How?

- How do I explain how... - We just throw them at the ocean.

Then it explodes in the water and fishes come floating up.

Why did you do that?

That's because Takagi-san...

Because we can catch a lot of fish at once. Why else would we do it?

I can't believe it.

Thanks to us, you guys were able to eat fish for dinner everyday!

- Why didn't you use fishing rods? - You should've fished the normal way.

Told that seaweed was needed for Daneihon,

everyone on the Saltmaking Team were roped into that task!

How can you expect the three of us

to catch fish for every one to eat day in and day out!

- But still! - Of all things...

How can you throw hand grenades?

-What should we have done then! - Why didn't you tell us?

You felt guilty about it, didn't you?

- What! - Are you stupid?

What did you just say?

Stop it! Stop it!

Stop it! Stop, stop, stop it!

You were catching fish with hand grenades?

Who's gonna believe that!

Trying to put on a lousy act. Shut up and sit down.

- Is he really American? - Why's he speaking Osaka dialect?

Charlie Tanaka.

CHARLIE TANAKA

A bona fide American born in California.

I'm guarding you guys carefully so that you don't collaborate on your story.

I'm Onozuka Shinichi.

Only you're in a suit, huh?

I was working for a securities firm until recently.

From a securities firm to Tachibana Salt Company?

Yes.

What's your real role?

I'm just an employee.

Don't tell me this crap!

What is your name?

Name? Ah...

Manpei Tachibana.

How old are you?

How old? Oh...I'm 37 years old.

Thirty-seven.

That's around the time I mastered Japanese.

It took me 10 years to learn Japanese.

Why did you learn Japanese?

I was interested in Japanese culture.

Samurai, geisha, Kyoto, Asakusa.

Ah, really? Is that all.

Just kidding.

The United States knew from earlier on that Japan would eventually become our enemy.

When I found that out, I learned Japanese from Japanese-Americans in Los Angeles.

I bet you're exasperated about losing the war.

It's only natural to harbor ill feelings when your country's getting occupied.

However, rebellion cannot be allowed.

I've never even thought of anything like rebellion.

What kind of company is Tachibana Engyo?

We make salt and nutritious food.

What did you do before that?

Before that... I made seals.

- Seals? - Oh...

Stamp. Name seal.

- Before that? - Before that...

It was a root crop food cutter...

Food...mixer.

Before that?

Magic lantern.

Camera...photograph.

What is it that you want to do?

I want to know about your company in detail.

Tell me what's in these pictures.

Fukuko...

Is this Nakamura Law Firm?

There's a case I'd like you to take.

Consulting with a lawyer is just a waste of time.

The thing is, our employees were taken away by Occupation Forces.

- Yes. Occupation Forces. - There's no way they'd take the case.

Mom, please be quiet!

Huh?

There won't be any lawyer who'd be willing to fight the Occupation Forces!

How can you say that like it's someone else's problem?

I am the daughter of a samurai.

We cannot lose our presence of mind at a time like this. We must calm down.

What should we do after we calm down?

What are we going to do after you put the bowls away?

How in the world am I supposed to know!

Who are these guys?

That's why I told you, they're our employees.

Hello? Is this Hayashi Law Firm?

There's a case I'd like you to take. Yes.
