The Women (女たち)

I came back again.

You made me jump.

What is this thing?

-What? -This.

A storehouse.

-It's so dirty. -It's really dirty.

Don't say that.

Whose land is this?

Whose land?

Land? Building?

Building? Well, I'm using it now.

Does it belong to a relative?

I don't have any relatives.

Only my little sister.

Where does she live?

It's a secret.

A secret?

You were singing, weren't you?

I heard you.

-I wasn't singing. -You were! I heard you.

I can't say that I'm not sad

Your dad listened to that a lot.

Those days were the happiest time of my life.

Why do you keep bees?

Huh?

Who knows?

What about you?

Don't you have any dreams?

Dreams?

I gave them up ages ago.

Well...

Can you look after the bees when I can't get here?

Why did you say that?

Just felt like it.

THE WOMEN

Morning.

Once again today, the show will focus on news about COVID-19.

As the virus spreads like wildfire around the world,

a supplementary budget was approved on April 30th.

A handout of 100,000 yen per resident was confirmed.

Good morning!

Good morning!

How's it going?

Well...

Naoki, can you remake breakfast for me?

The cloth masks have been labeled ''Abenomasks''.

Sure.

Your mail.

Thank you.

These cloth masks can be washed and reused.

Finished?

Thank you very much.

No problem.

I'll get your towel.

Thank you.

There we go.

Yes?

How's my mom?

She ate it all after I took out the carrots.

Sorry.

What for?

Don't apologize.

Misaki...

Can I see you later?

We don't usually meet at night.

Well...

We didn't finish, did we?

See you later.

Have a nice day.

Are you finished?

No, not yet.

Let me help you.

What about the childcare center?

It's OK.

Thanks.

-Here. -Got it.

Kaori. Can I talk about something serious?

What is it?

Well, you know...

Since you left...

I've been lying the whole time.

When my dad overdosed and committed suicide,

I said some terrible things.

But...

I've been blaming my mom.

I'm lying to myself, and I'm lying to others too.

It's a mess.

Maybe I'm going crazy.

You're all right.

Really?

Well, you're all right too, then. Right?

You're all right.

Thanks.

We're all right.

Good morning.

Good morning.

Sorry, can you...

do the window?

All right.

That's done.

Hello.

Good morning.

Good morning.

Are you settling in OK?

Yes.

Jun has a bit of a fever, so he's not coming in today.

Oh, really?

Yes.

You two, please put masks on.

Already?

Some parents have complained.

We'll do it when they come.

Do it now.

-Goodbye. -Goodbye.

Throw that away.

Why? How come no one uses them?

Why would they?

You can wash and reuse it.

If you say so.

Here.

What's this?

Money for your new business.

I can't accept this.

Why not? Just take it.

No, it wouldn't be right.

I want to support your dream.

For real?

For real.

No way.

It's really all right. I want to be together!

Seriously?

Really?

We can do it.

I'm off.

Misaki.

Thanks.

See you.

Misaki!

Toilet.

Wait. Did you disinfect your hands properly?

Yes.

Some COVID-19 patients do not develop symptoms.

Today, we will explain about asymptomatic infections.

You're doing it on purpose, aren't you?

What?

Putting the salt where I can't reach it.

I didn't do it on purpose.

Good morning.

I'm Maryam Tanaka, a home helper from Happiness Care.

But our helper is always Naoki Kumagai.

Mr. Kumagai transferred.

Excuse me.

Good morning.

Who are you?

I'm Maryam Tanaka, your home helper.

Where's Naoki?

He transferred.

I understand that,

but no one told me anything.

Hey, Misaki!

Could you check that for me?

What's going on, Misaki?

''Pick up the phone.''

Could you tell me where Naoki transferred to?

What are they thinking sending that foreigner?

Where the hell is she even from?

Did you really not know about this?

I kept telling them, but they wouldn't accept it.

Yes. Thank you.

All right.

Thank you.

Please don't tell anyone I told you.

OK.

I've written my number. Please call me if you need to.

All right.

Take care.

Hello?

Hi, Misaki.

It's raining over here. Shall we drink inside today?

I'm not sure if I can meet today.

How about after you're done at home?

Actually, I'm not feeling too good.

I see.

Sorry. Let's meet some other time.

This is so messy.

How do they get so dirty?

Don't you normally get new ones?

I'd think so.

Not that I'm not grateful.

Right. They'd get dirty anyway.

They're so small, aren't they?

Is this for winter?

Maybe. It looks warm.

Oh, this is cute!

It looks good.

It's nice, isn't it?

Be careful.

-Look. -It's tiny.

All right.

Wait a minute.
