Ossan's Love: In the Sky (おっさんずラブ二 / Ottoman love 2 / Otobaru Love 2 / Ossan's Love -in the sky- / おっさんずラブ : in the sky-)

I missed a button!

I am so screwed.

Sorry about that. Good morning!

That hurts!

All right! I can do this! l can make it!

I can do this! Yes, I can!

Almost there.

I can do this.

-Ma'am? Let me help you with that. -Yes?

I'll take the suitcase. Let's go.

-Thank you. -Don't mention it.

-I really appreciate it. -It's nothing.

I'm Soichi Haruta, 35 years old.

I'm a pilot...

Psych! No, I'm not.

Good morning.

Good morning.

Six months ago, after getting laid off at my previous workplace,

I interviewed for a mid-career position at an airline.

SOICHI HARUTA CABIN ATTENDANT

Good morning.

That hurts! I'm so sorry!

What?

Thanks.

-I'm sorry about that. -It's fine.

-Are you hurt? -No.

You don't have to do that. I'm so sorry.

That's my line.

MUSASHI KUROSAWA CAPTAIN

-See you around. -Yes, sir.

Man, captains are so cool.

After passing the interview, I spent two grueling months in training.

-Today -Congratulations.

-is my first day -Thank you.

as a full-fledged cabin attendant.

-Excuse me! Could you? Please? -Yes?

-Over there, please! -Yes?

-In there! -What? The toilet?

Yes, the toilet!

What do I do? I dropped it!

-What did you drop? -It slipped right out of my fingers!

But what did you--

It's an engagement ring.

What?

Wait here, I'll get someone.

There's no time!

I understand.

Good morning!

Good morning.

Good morning. I'm sorry I'm late.

I'm the new CA, Soichi Haruta. I look forward to working with you.

Oh, we meet again.

Do you have any idea what time it is?

The briefing was scheduled for 9:20 a.m.

Yes.

I am so sorry!

Have you forgotten how important the predeparture briefing is for CAs?

It was part of your training.

Yes, of course.

Crew declaration of health,

allocation of CA duties,

rundown of passengers requiring special assistance,

en route flight information, weather forecast for our destination,

and review of instruction manuals!

We covered all that before you got here.

I'm sorry.

You won't be flying with us.

If you're late for the briefing, you don't get to fly,

I can't leave the safety of our passengers in the hands of a CA who wasn't briefed.

Have you asked for a standby CA?

Yes, Mr. Naruse.

Let's do our best today.

-Yes, sir. -Yes, sir.

Wait...

Captain--

You were late on your very first day as a CA.

You don't deserve to be part of this team.

Haruta? What are you doing?

Isn't today your first flight?

-Mr. Shino! -What?

I messed up.

Seriously?

You overslept?

Well, yes, and then there was...

Come on, get it together.

There's more to a cabin crew's job than attending to passengers on a plane.

There's plenty of work you can do while on standby.

You're right.

Sorry to interrupt, but could you check this?

This is Haruta, a new CA.

We're dorm neighbors.

I'm Michibata, a technician working under Mr. Shino.

Pleased to meet you.

I'm Haruta. Pleased to meet you.

Mr. Michibata...

You can drop the "Mr."

Just call me Micchi.

-Nicknames already? -Micchi.

-Wait, really? -Micchi.

Excuse me, Mr. CA?

Mr. CA?

-You're a CA, right? -Yes.

So you messed up on your first day.

Does the whole office know already?

What? Were you distracted by all the pretty CAs around you?

No, that wasn't--

You thought you were going to be Mr. Popular?

No, not at all!

Dream on!

I'm Karasuma. I work as a dispatcher. Pleased to meet you.

I'm Soichi Haruta, a CA.

-Pleased to meet you. -Likewise.

Do you know what a dispatcher does?

We dispatch flight information to the pilot.

Dispatchers are also known as "pilots on the ground."

What do we dispatch, you ask?

Why, everything from the weather to the cargo capacity!

-Do you understand? -Excuse me, if I may...

Go ahead.

-I know all that already. -Yes, I thought so.

I have a favor to ask of you.

What is it?

-Yes? -Over here.

A replacement for this file cabinet will arrive this afternoon.

Management wants me to move all the documents out before that.

Okay?

So could you, like, do something about it?

Feel free to ask if you have any questions.

Thanks, I will.

I'm sorry.

I'll clean this up.

What a mess.

What?

Is that me?

Why?

Seriously?

What the heck?

What?

What's going on here?

What?

What?

A flip-book?

Ladies and gentlemen, may I have your attention please?

Is there anyone on this flight

who is good at drawing?

Wait, this means someone's been watching me, right?

What?

Who could it be?

Where are they watching me from?

Who's watching me?

And for what reason?

Senior Haru!

Oh, it's you, Hina.

What? You didn't get to fly?

How could you mess up this badly on your first day?

Yes, everyone's been grilling me about it.

Gosh, get it together!

I'll try.

I never thought you'd actually be a CA.

Hey, you recommended this job to me, remember?

I had to. You looked like an abandoned puppy.

What? Like a cute, little puppy?

More like a sad, little puppy.

Senior Haru?

Hina Tachibana?

You were laid off?

Yes.

It was a small but long-established sports footwear company.

They ran into some problems with cash flow.

I see.

We were like family. The sales team and the craftsmen

all played a part in the production of every shoe.

It felt wrong to lay-off the craftsmen. They're not exactly young anymore.

I was in the sales division, so I volunteered for an early retirement.

That reminds me of high school.

Our basketball team was really weak.

But all of us on the team were like family.

You used to let the reserves take your place in the matches.

I couldn't let their hard work go to waste.

Senior Haru.

Why don't you try for a position at my company?

What does your company do?

It's an airline. Tenku Peach Airlines.

Oh, I can't possibly be a pilot now. I mean, I'm too old--

We're looking for CAs.

CA?

It stands for cabin attendant.

Me? A CA?

It had never even crossed my mind.

I'm grateful to you for introducing me to this job.

Well...

You can thank me by taking me to this new oden restaurant.

Buy me dinner.

-That's all you want? Oden ? -Yes.

-And you can help me with this. -Okay.

I'll leave this to you, Senior Haru.

Wait, Hina.

Can you stop calling me "Senior Haru"?

What?

You're my senior in this company.
