The Ravine of Goodbye (Sayonara keikoku) (さよなら渓谷)

THE RAVINE OF GOODBYE

Let's do it.

Kanako!

Kanako!

Sorry, but could you sign for a package I've got coming?

It's C.O.D

Sure.

Thanks .

A comment , please!

Just a few words!

She's putting something up!

- Ms Tachibana! - Give us a comment, please!

What is it?

It's just for a courier.

“Leave the package with Mrs. Ozaki next door.“

It's been two weeks now!

Somethings coming!

It's crazy out there.

Come here

Do you miss Megumu?

You were fond of him.

I wasn't all that fond of him.

Yes, you were.

Don't touch me!

Shut up!

Don't touch me!

Shut up!

We're in Mizunosate in suburban Tokyo.

Satomi Tachibana has just been arrested

for the murder of her little son Megumu.

The mother of the victim in the Mizunosato child murder case

has just been arrested at her home

and probably taken to Mizunosato Police Station.

Two weeks after the boy's body was found in Katsuragawa Ravine,

the arrest of his mother

suggests this drama will come to a tragic and horrifying close.

Reporters noted

unusual actions by the suspect the day the body was found,

and several' weird statements she has made,

as this tragedy has run its course.

I told the police everything

I have nothing to say to you.

Were you really at work?

Stop filming me, I said!

Get out of here!

They're showing her face.

A few days ago,

she was wondering why her face was always pixelated.

She's a bit strange, isn't she?

But now,

they're not doing it anymore,

becuase Satomi-san can't watch

I'll ask around a bit more before I go back.

What about the article? Do I have to write it again?

Come on , Kobayashi .

It's hot. Leave him to it.

Just what the hell is going on here?

Bye-

Mr. Ozaki, aren't you?

Yes.

It's quieted down .

Don't open the fridge in the dark. It's weird.

You're hungry now?

I'll warm it myself.

And I wash up, right?

I've been out working my ass off in all this heat!

So I should be grateful?

Give me a break!

I told you not to quit.

Even if they sent you to a factory out in the sticks.

You should've known, that once you got hurt,

you're off the company's rugby team

I'd still be working if I hadn't married you.

Now you're too broke to divorce.

Look over there.

Excuse me.

Sorry to bother you. You're Shunsuke Ozaki, right?

Yes.

Well...

We're police.

'Morning.

Watanabe!

I hope you interviewed the neighbor, did you?

What?

They're questioning him now.

They are?

Would I lie to you?

The police think he was getting it on with Satomi Tachibana.

You were watching them. Did you realize anything?

Did you ask around?

There was nothing between them.

Like hell there wasn't. Do your damn job!

Mr. Watanabe

Is the neighbor that guy Ozaki?

Find out more about him, please.

You got this resume already?

I made friends with a lady in the factory office where both of them work.

I thought I give it a try.

You're sure lucky.

I spend my time on these things.

Mr. Kato!

About Tachibana's part-time job...

To put it bluntly, did you have a sexual relationship?

Why would we?

Answer the question .

Who said that?

You and Tachibana had a sexual relationship, right?

No.

Of course not.

You're a reporter?

Sorry to bother you.

Watanabe, Weekly Press.

What can I do for you?

Do you remember a player named Ozaki Shunsuke from 16 years ago?

No, I'm afraid I don't.

I'm told he was a pretty good pitcher.

All I ever really think about is the actual team.

I forget all the old stuff.

I see.

All right. Thanks.

Could I perhaps use your washroom?

Ah, excuse me, uh...

...would Shunsuke Ozaki be at work today?

I'm his wife.

What?

The police?

I see, all right.

Thank you very much.

I'm busy, so make it quick.

You played baseball with Shunsuke Ozaki?

Then I got him a job here. It's who you know, right?

Then he quit.

A while later he called me, but all he said was “I'm sorry“.

He had great potential as a pitcher, didn't he?

Well, may be.

But he dropped out of university six months before graduation.

Why?

Three junior-year players quit the team, too.

Akasaka, Fujimoto, Suda.

Why did Ozaki and three players of the first-team quit together?

Did something happen that forced them to quit?

Was it an assault?

I was an athlete, too. I played rugby.

Were women involved?

Why do you have to dig this up now?

Your name won't come into it, Mr. Osugi

You know,

guys like you make me sick.

What you did .

Gang-raping a girl.

Huh?

Back already?

I heard the police took you in.

Who told you?

I saw your abandoned bike by the road

Don't tell me you were worried about me.

Wouldn't I be?

It's nothing.

That woman's been telling crazy thing again

Like what?

I don't know.

Read this, will you?

I'm not working late tonight.

I finally got a reservation at a Chinese health food restaurant.

A child murderer and a rapist. What a couple!

But why is it?

It's always either stories about model-athletes or about gang-rapists.

It's always either/or.

Hey, Mr. Watanabe, didn't you play rugby in school?

Uh-oh!

I'm not like him.

He has a wife, doesn't he?

I think so.

Do you think she knows her husband raped someone?

They wouldn't be together if she did.

Have a nice evening.

You're off work today?

I learned that the police questioned you about Satomi Tachibana.

I had nothing to do with that woman.

You played baseball, didn't you. At Wato University.

I was a rugby player

I made it to a corporate team.

Then I got hurt.

When you live for a sport and then you have to quit,

it's like your life empties out.

Mr. Ozaki,

I know what you did in university.

Excuse me!
