'Morning!
You're early, Sensei.
Keep pedaling for Tour de France.
(If the food's cold, zap it.)
You're up?
It's morning.
It sure is. Breakfast time.
My daughter cooked too much rice this morning.
I brought you tarako and salmon nigirimeshi.
What's all this?
Menchi-katsu and kinpira gobô?
You're eating better than I am.
I don't know what they're up to.
Anyway, they're leftovers.
Don't be silly.
This is parental love.
All of a sudden.
Then you eat these rice balls.
I'll eat this kinpira gobô.
Hey, don't eat that!
It's delicious.
They'll think I ate it.
I'll have a cup of tea.
Tadashi?
Does your black-eye hurt?
I can't go to school looking like this.
I'll mark you absent due to illness.
Here you go.
Try this tea.
Someone gave it to me.
Sakamoto-sensei,
were your children born in a hospital or at home?
Otome and Kôsaku were both born in a hospital.
Why?
Is anything wrong with your wife?
Eiko met a dependable midwife and wants to have the baby at home.
I agreed to it.
Is that safe?
It is! It's the in-thing.
What does having a baby have to do with trends?
A hospital is safer.
Some hospitals are like baby factories,
inducing labor to hasten the process.
More women prefer to have a midwife deliver their baby.
Yes, I'd like to be convinced too.
That's why, I intend to have the baby with her.
You'll pass out.
This may be difficult for a single man to understand,
but delivering a baby is a joint project.
Happy, aren't you?
We're off to work with students in a joint effort.
This is today's proverb. Please read it.
Amadare ishi o ugatsu.
The character for ugatsu is rather difficult,
but does anyone know what the proverb means?
Natsumi?
Even the tiniest of raindrops will create a hole in a boulder
if they fall in the same spot over a number of years.
That's very good.
My grandmother taught it to me.
She said if you like someone,
keep sending the message, "I like you," with your mind,
and that person will like you back for sure.
I wouldn't say "for sure."
The next one, I'll read it.
Mizu wa hôen no utsuwa ni shitagau.
Water assumes the shape of its container.
Water is very adaptable
and strong enough to make holes in a boulder.
Human beings should take after the good qualities of water.
We want to be flexible and strong-willed.
The year will end in three weeks.
Next spring you will face high school entrance exams.
Take to heart these two proverbs.
Perseverance will win. Let's read it together.
Amadare ishi o ugatsu.
Mizu wa hôen no utsuwa ni shitagau.

This is where I come to study. I'm nervous.
Kôsaku-san.
Welcome back. Finished rehabilitation?
Sensei, this is my tutor.
Kôsaku-kun?
Miyake-sensei?
You're all grown up!
Why are you here?
But I'm fine. I'm even eating regular food.
Tutor Masako without tiring yourself out.
What is this?
A present from me.
This isn't anthrax, is it?
Don't even kid about that!
I don't want to commit suicide with this class.
It's safe. Try it.
Yuck!
What came to mind?
It's oatmeal!
Not even close.
It tastes like baby food.
I ate something like this when I was on a diet.
That's pretty close.
Why did we have to taste baby food?
Quiet.
Let's take a look at the hunger map.
Sakamoto-sensei also told you
people are starving in the red countries.
Where is it most severe?
Afghanistan.
I can't bear the thought of people freezing to death.
You're okay.
I'll take care of you, Akane.
I'll nurse you on these breasts.
You don't have milk.
I have more than you do.
In countries like these, organizations such as NGO,
fearlessly offer aid to starving people.
The first thing refugees are fed is this baby food.
Adults too?
Stingy!
Starving people don't have the metabolism to digest
beef, butter and other solid nutritious foods.
So they revert to babies and practice how to eat.
So, what is this?
This an actual sample from the WFP.
It is flour and cornmeal mixed with hot water.
Sorry for saying it was anthrax.
I want you all to realize
how difficult it is to be compassionate to people.
Today, we're going to learn about
food digestion and absorption.
Thanks for keeping me company.
It's better than sitting bored in my room.
Liar! You can chat online.
It's more fun talking to someone in person.
I'm "in person"?
Did I offend you?
I have a prosthetic leg. See?
I've dreamt over and over
of running past that tree at full speed.
Of course, on two legs.
The rehabilitation therapist said
I can learn to run with a prosthetic leg.
So, I'm trying not to have such dreams.
I'm sorry, may I ask you what kind of illness you had?
Bone cancer.
I was told if they didn't amputate below my thigh,
I would die.
I see.
You were strong, weren't you?
No, I cried, wailed.
A dead person is laid in a coffin.
Just the thought of not having a leg was unbearable.
Besides, if I couldn't dance ballet again,
I'd rather die.
Ballet?
Since I was five.
But I'm glad I'm alive today.
The physically challenged in wheelchairs dance now.
Please don't laugh.
My goal is to be that dance company's prima ballerina.
I want to travel all over the world.
That's why I'm studying hard.
Laugh? Who's laughing?
I don't know when it'll happen,
but will you come and watch my recital?
Of course!
Oniichan!
Be careful, you'll fall.
I can't believe you're a big brother.
I want a cute younger sister.
Your older sister is ugly.
What's up, Erika?
Let's play.
I'm sorry.
Akane is Ken-chan's girlfriend.
Thank you for faxing your notes to me.
You make me very happy. Etô Naomi.
(Send/Recv)
You tasted food for refugees?
It was awful.
This will take care of the aftertaste.
Itadakimasu!
Did you wash your hands? I'll bring you hand towels.
Again?
I'm jealous!
What is it now?
Are you forced to attend cram school or take lessons?
I take piano lessons.
I don't think anyone else does in the 9th grade.
And I'm not very talented either.
But I'm composing now.
Notes, like tadpoles, dance on music sheet lines.
It's strange that these notes express how I feel.
That's all for today. Yesterday.
Mom?
Can I borrow that computer to exchange information.
Who is she?
If it's a girl, I'll use my cell phone.
I need my privacy, don't I?
I'd like to hear your compositions.
We have two computers at home.
One is off-limits, for my father's use only,
but here's the address for the old family computer.
Send your music notes on template.
I look forward to seeing the dancing tadpoles on paper.
Haseken.
All right!
Welcome home, you two.
Are you okay?
I have a cat's tongue.
Welcome home!
Come over here. Look at the food my mama cooked.
Isn't it something?
Erika, let's go home.
Bye!
We need to talk.
What do you think of Taeko-san?
Yamaguchi-san thinks if she lived here,
she would be good for the factory and for you.
We both have a child, but Erika adores you.
I don't like the idea.
I'm against remarriage.
Don't be silly.
She cooks for us.
One mother is enough for me.
She isn't acting like a mother, that's why I'm worried.
I'm not your puppet!
She isn't much, but she's all the mother I have!
Kôsaku-san.
Me? No thanks.
No thanks.
Kôsaku?
What were you dreaming about?
Nothing.
Why are you two here together?
We bumped into each other at the front.
Something good happened?
No...
Let's have home room as a family of four.
Who would like to share what happened today?
I went to hospital school today.
Kurata Masako-chan took me.
I felt like a tutor.
That's terrific.
Were you able to answer their questions?
Barely, but it touched me.
What did?
Watching those kids, I can't explain it well, but...
They weren't studying even though they're ill,
but studying because they're ill.
On top of it, they were enjoying themselves.
I was blown away.
My turn.
Kan-kan said something that blew me away today.
His wife is going to give birth at home.
No way!
Sorry!
Come closer.
Since it's the beginning of a new life,
they want to have the baby together.
Yes, Otome?
Do you think I can watch their baby's birth?
The three will put their energies together
to become one family.
I'd like to see that with my own eyes
and tell Kôsaku about it later.
His condition is stable now,
but this will strengthen his will to live.
You're sounding more and more like your mother.
Someday, I'll experience it.
I heard grandchildren are adorable.
Will they look like Endô-sensei?
Yes, Dad?
Please, not him!
Oniichan, have a nice day!
See you later!
What's the matter with him?
He's sulking.
Excuse me. Are you Imai Tadashi-kun?
Where is Imai Takeshi?
He isn't here.
We'll have to search your home.
Here's a warrant.
Kamata Eiji, arrested for trespassing and assault,
is Takeshi's friend?
Don't know.
Kamata Eiji claims it all started because
Takeshi stole the money they made selling drugs.
No way! Takeshi doesn't sell drugs!
Stand over there with Officer Ômori
while we search this place.
Stop!
Endô-sensei!
Endô-sensei? You were the one who cleaned up this place with him?
That's correct.
Why is that a reason to search this place?
Ômori-san said...
Is this how you handle things?
Do you realize how terrifying this is for Tadashi?
Sensei, did you come across syringes that day?
Of course not!
I'm telling you, there aren't such items here!
This place was filthy and we dumped cardboard boxes out,
leftover food was scattered all over the place and...
It's Detective Matsumoto's job to protect all citizens.
Why are you siding with them?
Oh yeah, you're birds of a feather.
Don't touch them!
They'll die if they're frightened!
Hello, this is Sakamoto.
Police? Yes, I understand.
I'll be right there. Excuse me.
What now? Where are you going?
Hanako-sensei, I'm sorry. May I have a glass of water?
Excuse me.
Where are you going?
To a student.
What's the student's name and what happened?
My student in 3-B.
He had a frightening experience, but is fine now.
You're not answering my questions.
I'm sorry if it sounds that way.
Thank you.
I'm sorry, but he needs some time.
I'll update you later, so please wait in your office.
Hanako-sensei! How you have matured.
I look forward to your Home Economics classes next year.
I'll do my best.
Thank you very much.
Please open the door.
Tadashi...
Come on, Tadashi.
Open the door! Tadashi!
Are you okay?
The police searched...
They were looking for his older brother.
They lied.
We shoplifted, but didn't touch drugs!
Niichan would never do drugs!
Of course, drugs screw up your head.
Let's talk. Please unlock the door.
Tadashi, are you all right?
What's this?
Until my son comes home, I'll sleep here.
I told you I'll be fine by myself.
What's the matter with you?
Can't you see your parents are worried about you?
He doesn't like to be pressured.
Look at their faces.
Look at your parents!
When a child is in pain,
the only other people who are also in pain,
are the child's parents. Remember that.
May I sit here?
It's a beautiful song!
It's hard here.
You have to press it with your finger.
From the beginning.
Okay.
Again!
Please split up into groups A and B.
Are you aware of Nao?
A long time ago. Isn't that so, Akane?
It's obvious she likes him.
Be careful that she doesn't steal him from you.
Knock it off!
Take your seats!
Hey!
No takoyaki today?
None!
I have nothing at all.
Go ahead and sulk! This isn't like you.
What do you want?
I'd like to ask you something.
What?
What is it that you don't like about Ken?
You glare at him
and it makes him wonder if he's hurt your feelings.
And?
He doesn't like being teased about you liking him.
As long as you trust Ken, ignore the teasing.
I'm not glaring at him.
If I was, he can ask me to stop doing it.
Ken wouldn't tell you that.
Want one?
We've been classmates since kindergarten.
We are not an item.
Since we are best friends.
we want to help when the other is troubled.
Besides...
Okay! I won't look at him from tomorrow.
Tsurumoto-san?
He asks for too much.
He has two best friend, you and Heihachirô.
We can be friends if you try to be friendlier.
Why do you look like you enjoy being alone?
I'm sorry, I...
That's just how I am.
Take the takoyaki with you to cram school.
You suddenly feel like eating tart fruits like tangerines?
It's all Kan-kan's wife buys these days.
Don't be silly.
It's on sale today.
They aren't rotten, are they?
Of course not!
Be careful.
Long time no see!
It has been a while.
It isn't much, but please enjoy them.
Thank you!
You're here until late.
I'm only supposed to be here until dinnertime,
but these children love to study, so I stick around.
Sensei.
Feel free to look around.
Sakamoto-sensei.
Good evening, Tomomi-chan.
Why are you here?
In case of an emergency.
I'm not worried about having the baby at home,
but the midwife said to make arrangements,
just in case I need a Caesarean section.
Slit your belly?
Stop it.
Why are men so fearful of things like that?
Because they're helpless.
Why are you here?
I brought a truant student to show her something.
Children have power.
They do what teachers can't, effortlessly.
Please take care.
Thank you.
I'm praying for your baby's safe delivery.
What did you learn?
Those children are ill, yet they seem to enjoy studying.
I...
You're not ill.
You can't attend hospital school.
Why don't you go and tutor those children sometimes?
You don't have to hurry back to 3-B.
Tsurumoto-san...
has been faxing her notes to me.
I see.
I shouldn't say this,
but I can't seem to reach Tsurumoto Nao.
She always seems to have her fists clenched.
That's why I look up to her.
She's strong.
Then stand up to your classmates.
I feel sorry for Tsurumoto-san.
She isn't a weakling.
And someday, you and Nao will become good friends.
Really?
It's up to you.
Your feelings were hurt,
but the children in the hospital school are really hurt.
Yet, they are studying hard.
They were smiling,
but I'd bet when they are alone, they want to cry.
What should you do?
There is an answer.
But I don't have it.
Neither is it on Nao's fax.
The answer is in there.
Study about yourself, by yourself.
We had something to do.
Naomi.
I'll wait for you at school.
Good luck on Tour de France!
Naomi, see you!
It says "Tour de France" on his heart.
All roads lead to Rome.
