Girl Boss: Crazy Ball Game (女番長 玉突き遊び)

TOEI Presents

I was born and raised in Osaka.

Growing up on the waterfront, I've been bad as long as I can remember. Going to Catholic parochial school didn't help.

As you know, I'm the kingpin at the Orchid Girl's Academy.

My name is Orchid Mina.

I hereby challenge you to a duel.

I am honored by your respect for underworld etiquette.

I was born and raised in Kobe.

I am a wandering bird and know neither my mother, nor my father.

I am ready to bloom and wither on the streets of Namba.

I am Kyoko Maki, the ringleader of the...

Blood Cherry Blossom Gang, AKA 'Wildcat Okyo'.

I respectfully comply with your request for a formal duel.

Boss, get up! Boss!

Kyoko! Kyoko!

Kyoko Maki, you are hereby reprimanded to the maximum security juvenile detention facility.

If you wish to dispute this decision, you may petition...

the high court within a period of two weeks.

I don't care - juvey, the streets - it's all the same!

After two years, southern Osaka is still as smoggy and crowded as ever.

Still, I love it.

Mayumi!

- Aren't you Mayumi? - Kyoko!

I barely recognized you.

I said to myself, "Who's the young housewife?"

I just got out of juvey last month.

Darling!

I hope you weren't waiting long.

What's the big idea?

Hey, bitch!

You run into someone on the street, you say you're sorry.

You need to learn some manners!

Get out of the street!

- Yuki! - Kyoko!

What are you up to now?

Just running my own cab.

- Where shall I take you, ma'am? - I don't care, just drive.

That's fine, so long as you can cover the fare.

I didn't realize I was a customer.

I guess I can't really do that.

OK, it's quittin' time.

At night, I'm a full-service hostess, if you get my drift.

Yuki, can I stay for a while?

"For a while," how formal!

You gotta kick in for the rent.

What are you going to do for money?

I can't take being poor anymore.

Still, I can't stand men pawing me at a nightclub.

I'll have to think of something.

You're clever, you'll work something out.

But still, you have to work to live. Zip me up!

Money, money, money - nothing else matters.

Jeepers, I'm late!

Momoyo, your boobs are truly an irresistible force.

There's God, there's Buddha, and there's boobs.

Excuse me, do you think you could hold him...

while I go to the powder room?

- Sure, lady. - Thank you.

The bag, too. I'm sorry to impose.

She sure is taking her own sweet time...

Maybe she went to the toilet on the top floor. It's been nearly 30 minutes.

Oh, geez. Maybe she ditched the baby!

- What should we do? - What can we do?

Don't cry, you were destined to be an orphan.

You might not have been any happier if you had your mama and papa.

Stop crying and cheer up.

Don't talk so cruel to the little fella.

Boss!

I can see you're still thinking small.

This little guy is where the money's at; don't throw him away.

Honey!

Honey, why did you go so suddenly?

What's to become of us?

Miss, not here!

Honey, look at him...

his eyes, his mouth - he's your spitting image.

How could you leave him a bastard?

Why did you die? How could you leave us?

This isn't the time or place. Let's go to the next room.

Please have a seat.

We should discuss this matter at a later date.

Here, take this for now.

What do you want, blood?

That's all I got!

Merciful heavens! OK, OK, OK.

This is for rental of the mourning kimono.

Here's the little tyke.

This is to buy baby formula.

- Baby formula? - Don't worry about it.

The poor baby has been abandoned by his parents. Take good care of him.

Well done, Kyoko.

- Sister, you really know how to run a con. - Don't call me "sister". It's Kyoko.

I'm Momoyo. Pleased to make your acquaintance.

Kyoko, help!

Hey, you found Hiroko! Kaoru and Tonko have been roped into...

doing a filthy, disgusting lesbian sex show!

Part dream, part reality - I hope you enjoyed the lesbian sex show today.

Thank you. Thank you.

Bitches!

You're just puppets.

You better listen when I talk!

- Look, we can't take it anymore... - I don't wanna hear it!

This is how I make my money: Any woman can do what you do!

It's time for some special training!

I'll teach you with my arms and legs, and what's between my legs.

Wait right there! Pipe down!

Boss!

What are you doing?

What do you want?

These two are quitting as of today.

- I'll need your seal on this contract. - This is bullshit.

You're the manager; don't tell me you don't have a seal.

If you don't have one, we'll cut your dick off and stamp the contract with the stub!

You think you can... get away with this?

The Tachibana Corporation won't take this sitting down.

This is just like the old days with the Blood Cherry Blossom Gang.

Hiroko: Those were the days.

We need Kyoko to lead us again, so we can start up the old gang.

I'm ready to take orders.

There will be no boss and no followers; we'll just be a gang of equals.

Get your noodles!

- Momoyo, aren't you going to eat? - I'm late.

You always eat so much, what's the matter?

It's been two months since my last period. I think I'm pregnant.

Well, no wonder: You sleep with every crumb who smiles at you!

We'll go to the hospital tomorrow. Now forget about it and eat up.

What did they say?

The doc said it was a false alarm. Sorry to panic everyone.

You were the only one panicking. Anyhow, I'm glad that you're not pregnant.

Kyoko...

I'm sorry about the other day. I was in a rush.

Forget about it. Are you sick?

No, I'm pregnant.

Congrats. I heard from Yuki about your husband.

He's not such a good catch, but we're in love.

Kyoko, he's waiting; you'll have to excuse me.

- How did it go? - It's a yes.

So, I'm a father.

Don't worry about anything.

Darling, are you all right?

I'm OK.

Darling!

Let's go.

Are you Wildcat Okyo?

Who are you?

- Long time, no see. - Mina!

Out from juvey and you didn't even bother to stop by and see me.

Why the hell should I be stopping by to see you?

Do you remember this cut?

It healed before, but, seeing your mug,

it's started to sting again.

I served two years in the joint.

It was a formal duel and you have no cause for a grudge.

No cause for a grudge? Don't make me laugh.

You have no idea of the scorn of a woman with a scarred face.

But I'm a patient teacher.

Get up!

Don't even think for a moment that I'm done with you.

Little girls shouldn't play with matches.

Give it up. You girls should stick with sex... and give up the violence.

Why, you...

You bastard! I'll get you!

Hey...

Can you walk?

Butt out, mister.

Aren't you something...

Just like a wildcat.

Hey, Kyoko! Who did this?

Orchid Mina.

What?!

She's still in the gangs.

I suspected as much...

I heard that they're running an office lady prostitution ring.

For real?

I heard from Kazuko, a former member of Mina's gang.

Then it's settled: We'll do a little research on their operation and squeeze them like a ripe lemon.

I will not rest until I take my revenge.

This is too good to pass up!

The Blood Cherry Blossom Gang is back!

Yes, sir, that's right.

Hey, it's already 12:50.

If we're late, the general manager will find out.

Don't worry, I got him by the balls.

The balls?

Here's my card.

Here's my card.

What would happen if people found out...

that you're working another job on the side?

For example, if you were working a part-time job in the afternoon,

despite the fact you hold a real estate appraisal license.
