Gokusen (2002) s01e02 Episode Script

Don't abandon your friend!

1
(Episode Two)
I am Kumiko Yamaguchi.
My childhood dream came true,
and I became a teacher this spring.
I am a teacher, like my dad was.
My long-cherished dream came true
and I'm now a teacher,
but my students are all
hard to deal with.
Good lord They keep
causing trouble.
I stole it.
Don't make me laugh!
How can we believe
what a teacher says?
I will take care of you guys
till the end.
No matter what happens,
I will lead your class.
I will make you all
graduate together!
Compared to my students,
the men of my family are
all honest fellows.
Good morning.
I lost my parents when I was little,
and I was raised by
my grandfather
Good morning, Grandpa.
Ryuichiro Kuroda
is the third generation boss of
the yakuza group, the Oedo Family.
I'm supposed to be the
4th generation boss,
but I'm not going to succeed him.
Take care.
I will.
I cannot let my school know
that I am the granddaughter of
the 3rd generation boss
of the Oedo Family.
Take care, Missy
- Good morning.
- Good morning, Missy!
- Good morning, Missy!
- Good morning.
I wonder if I'll see him today.
Get on the bus.
Sorry.
This is fine as it is.
The man and I are Romeo and Juliet,
after all.
It's better that we don't know
get to know each other.
What?
Good morning, Miss Yamaguchi.
Romeo?
Good morning!
- Did you miss the bus?
- What?
Well
You're not taking the bus today
either?
No, I ride my bicycle sometimes
when I feel like it.
Yeah, same here.
I felt like jogging there today.
Oh, is that so? In that case,
let's go together for a while.
Sure!
Miss Yamaguchi, it feels good
to exercise in the morning.
Yes, it does!
My job is physically demanding too.
- As a copper?
- Copper?
Well, you're a detective, right?
I'm being transferred to the
Community Safety Section in April.
Community Safety Section?
It's mainly crime prevention
and local juvenile delinquents.
That means my students
could be in trouble?
Okay, I'm going this way.
Okay. See you.
Take care, bro.
Bro?
I mean, take care.
See you.
Sawada!
Good morning! Don't be late!
Oh, no!
Play fair!
You should hold your head high
as a bad guy!
I shouldn't have said that
I wanted to go jogging.
I'll get it for you.
- Thank you!
- You can count on me.
So Minami has a girlfriend?
See you.
It's romance.
(Shirokin Gakuin High School)
What?
Good morning!
Hey! At least say good morning
to me.
You should say that in the morning.
Kuma!
Hey.
Whatever.
What is it?
Hey
I can't see!
Good morning.
Good morning
This is great!
This is what primary school kids do,
isn't it?
But there isn't an "r" in the word
"bring" here.
(Bing it on, Vice Principal)
Who the heck did this?
You are provoking your teacher.
It has to be you guys from Class 3D.
What did you say?
Don't look at me like that!
Okay, calm down
Don't get angry over
some students' silly prank
Silly prank?
You should be more tolerant
as a teacher.
Are you sure, Miss Yamaguchi?
Pranks should be of good quality
(Bring it on, Yankumi!)
(It's amazing)
What the heck is this?
Who? Who the heck did this?
Putting my head on such
a voluptuous body
Are you trying to offend me?
Who did it?
Own up right now!
No
I just prefer
Norika Fujiwara's body.
Guys, what is this?
What is "Yankumi"?
Your nickname, of course!
Nickname?
Your name is Kumiko Yamaguchi,
so for short, it's
Yankumi
Yankumi?
I see. My nickname has always been
"Boss" until now
Boss
Boss
Boss
What?
Nothing.
I see. Yankumi, huh?
It's cute. I like it.
Hey She likes it.
No way
But don't make Mr Sawatari
too angry.
"If this happens again,"
"I'll find the culprit and punish
him straight away," he said.
He just hates the very sight of us.
Class, be quiet.
Let's start our lesson now.
Sawada, I told you not to be late.
Let's start our lesson now.
Stupid Sawatari really annoys me.
Exactly
Let's make him find it out
the hard way.
What
Okay, just a moment, please.
- Miss Yamaguchi, a call for you.
- Yes?
Thank you.
He said, "Tell Miss Yamaguchi
to answer the phone."
He talks in a strange way.
Where is he from?
Who knows?
Hello?
Missy, it's Tetsu here.
Idiot! Don't call me
when I'm in the school!
Oh, dear Tetsu?
I am very sorry.
I forgot
to put the chopsticks
in your lunch box.
That's why you called?
Don't worry,
I'll get a pair of disposable
chopsticks from the canteen.
Okay, bye.
Thank you, dear Tetsu.
Missy called me "dear Tetsu"
in such a gentle voice
Seems like you made Missy angry.
How scary!
Was that your boyfriend
on the phone?
No, he is our sworn brother
Sworn brother?
No, I mean he's my brother.
Oh, come on! He's your man, right?
No, he isn't.
Oh, you have a boyfriend?
Then you're not interested
in a matchmaking party, right?
Matchmaking party?
Yes, I am. Very much.
So both of you will come?
I've scheduled one for today, with
the detectives we met the other day.
Seriously? I'm in! I'm totally in!
When did she ask him to meet?
I'll call Mr Shinohara.
Oh, we'll see Mr Shinohara.
When did she even get
his cell number?
This is bad, Mr Sawatari!
Your car
Oh, no
Oh, my God!
It's awful!
This is serious!
Let's see
My car
He spelt the word "bring"
wrong again.
Darn
Who played a prank
and graffitied my car?
Hey! You shouldn't do
such a thing at school!
Miss Yamaguchi! You're their
class teacher, do something!
But have you got the goods
I mean, the proof that
the boys did it?
Exactly!
Yeah! Prove it!
The proof is
right there.
Paint?
Gosh, do it smarter!
Who did it?
We said, we don't know!
Even if we did,
we're not going to betray
a friend.
Exactly
So you guys know what
duty and sentiment are.
- Of course.
- Of course we do. They're friends.
Yeah, of course
There is something nice about you.
Miss Yamaguchi.
Why are you praising them?
Well Calm down
Yes, you guys are right.
You can't betray your friends.
But the person who did it
should confess like a man.
Okay, then.
We'll do this.
None of you will go home today!
Until the culprit makes
a confession.
It's collective responsibility.
Don't be ridiculous
What? I can't go home either?
Of course.
You're their class teacher, right?
Keep an eye on them, so that
they don't leave as they please.
Thanks, then.
Wait. Excuse me, I have to go to
a matchmaking party.
There is no other way.
You guys are friends, after all.
Don't say "friend" so casually.
Where are you going, Sawada?
Sawada!
Do they know how much my car costs?
This is too horrible.
I will never forgive
the idiots in 3D!
Yes, you're right.
I haven't paid off my loan.
How many more payments?
I don't know what my wife will say.
Ms Sachiko is a strict person.
Why are you so pleased?
No, I'm not
Well, you guys have some guts.
I'm impressed that none of you
has confessed after so long.
Okay!
I'm going to meet Ayumi now.
Wow
Where are you going?
It's collective responsibility!
Minami!
- Minami!
- The road is closed.
- Go
- Hey!
Don't get in his way.
- Let him go.
- Why?
He's going on a date.
- A date?
- Yeah.
He's always flirting with girls,
but he seems serious
this time.
A serious romance?
I see
You guys are nice.
Okay!
In consideration of how much
you care about your friend,
I'll let you off today.
Let us off?
We can go now?
You can go.
However! You will all clean
Mr Sawatari's car.
Change into your training suits
and assemble in the car park.
Okay?
I'm sorry.
So you ended up
having to do it alone?
Yeah.
But it's fine.
I mean, teachers are like
the enemy to them, right?
So I don't mind them
making a fool of me.
They care a lot about their friends.
The boys are promising.
But there is just one of them
that I don't understand.
Don't say "friend" so casually.
I think he'll be trouble.
Missy, his uniform
Is he a student from your school?
- I'm really bad at it.
- Oh, it's a Takoyaki stall.
- Lovely!
- I'm starving.
Excuse me. A pack of Takoyaki,
please.
Okay.
- Tetsu!
- Yes?
- Do something about that.
- What?
Don't ask me what!
His cigarettes!
- Do it now!
- Yes, Missy.
Hey Youngster!
Aren't you not allowed
to smoke?
Don't put it back!
Give it to us!
Sure
Yes. Good boy.
Thank you.
Wait!
You have to listen to
what your teacher says!
- I will.
- You can go now.
The two of them sharing a pack
of Takoyaki?
That's romance.
I wonder if Mr Shinohara
likes Takoyaki.
Mr Shinohara
No, I didn't say anything.
I have to go to a matchmaking party.
Matchmaking party?
No, I mean Bye!
Big Bro,
are you okay with letting an
honest man have Missy?
I'm sorry.
Missy
Big Bro
Do you know who the girl is?
I don't!
I told him to introduce us
next time.
- Get it
- Okay
- Okay
- Get it now
That girl
Are you used to your job
as a teacher now?
Yes.
It must be tough to deal with
high school boys nowadays.
Yeah, high school students
nowadays are so hard to deal with,
and they're quite a handful!
But what they do is
really not a big deal.
Mr Shinohara, do you have
a girlfriend?
- No, I don't.
- Really?
I'm single now.
Will you consider me?
Me too
- Oh, Miss Yamaguchi!
- The beer
It's a large puddle of beer.
Darn him! How dare he get
so familiar with Missy
- What kind of girls do you like?
- What?
Let's say, among the three of us.
What a bold question!
You don't have to hold back.
- Kumiko is my type!
- What?
Kumiko!
Hey
- Kashiwagi!
- Let me kiss you!
How dare you do that to Missy!
Missy
I meanMiss You are missing
the mark in pursuing the lady.
- Okay!
- You got it?
Yeah, exactly!
Mr Kashiwagi, you have to pursue
a lady in a better way! Right?
- Kashiwagi.
- Who are you?
- Sit down.
- Who are you?
- You're drunk.
- Who is he?
He's scary!
But he's a good man.
Hey, do you know that guy?
What? No, what nonsense.
Nonsense
Someone's fighting!
The police are coming!
What are you doing?
Let's go!
Wait! Wait for me!
Minami!
Are you okay?
You got beaten up so badly.
Are you okay?
Shut up!
Ouch!
I'm sorry, Mr Shinohara
Geez, Kashiwagi
Go, Minami.
Hey!
That boy who got beaten up is a
student at Shirokin Gakuin, right?
But I've never seen him before.
But the uniform he was wearing
What? I have never seen it.
Mob violence?
The student was one of ours?
We don't know the details yet,
but we think that the student who
got beaten was one of yours.
What? Oh, poor boy!
One of our students was the victim?
Oh, I feel sorry for him!
Could he be someone from 3D?
Oh, he could be.
This poor boy
He might be the victim,
but getting involved in a case of
assault is the problem here!
A high school student
with a sound mind
doesn't wander around
the shopping area at night,
and he wouldn't possible get dragged
into an assault case!
But it's normal for
high school students nowadays.
Yeah, they always flirt with girls.
Maybe he got robbed.
Right, Mr Ando?
Well
To prevent crimes like this
from happening again,
we'd like to find the teenagers
who assaulted him.
If the victim is one of
your students,
we'd like to ask you to do that.
Okay. We'll deal with it
as soon as possible.
Okay, everyone.
If any of your students
looks suspicious,
please tell me at once.
Okay, Miss Yamaguchi?
The guys in 3D are
the most suspicious.
The guys who assaulted the victim
could be from 3D too.
What do you mean?
This is embarrassing,
but one class in our school
is just impossible to deal with.
Including their class teacher.
There is this student, Shin Sawada,
in the class,
and he is an incredibly
evil student.
He used to go to Chuo Gakuen,
but he beat his class teacher up
during his first year
and was expelled from the school.
After that, he was transferred
to our school.
Well, he hasn't caused any
obvious problems so far,
but we all know that Sawada is
the leader in that class.
The leader in that class?
Well, I think Sawada told the other
students to assault the victim.
Mr Sawatari!
Why do you suspect him
without any proof?
If Sawada has nothing
to do with this,
how are you going to compensate him?
You won't pretend that
you didn't say it, will you?
You have to follow the street code!
Street
Code
Well, I just watched a movie
about the yakuza yesterday,
I was greatly influenced by it,
soyeah
Anyway, please call us
if anything further happens.
We will.
Thank you, then.
Thanks for coming.
Thank you. This way, please.
Why did I say that
in front of Mr Shinohara?
Gosh It was the last thing
I should say!
But
Well
Now
I can totally give up and
stop thinking about him, right?
I will be a teacher here
and offer the rest of my life
to my students.
Good morning!
It's hopeless here.
Guys, where are Sawada and Minami?
Who knows?
Yes!
Forget that girl.
What?
You got it?
It's none of your business!
Don't order me around again!
- Ouch!
- You got it? Huh?
Darn you!
Hey!
Why were you fighting?
Who started it?
Answer me.
Please wait a second.
Guys, you have a reason, right?
Okay. You'll do this.
Sawada, if you don't want
to be expelled from school,
you will write a written apology.
Sawada!
Why just Sawada?
It's obvious from
Minami's face.
He was beaten up so badly.
It proves that Sawada
punched him.
But it's
Nothing.
Come on, Minami.
- Go to the infirmary.
- Shut up.
Sawada!
You're not leaving, are you?
How can I write a written apology?
Are you okay with
getting expelled from school?
- Expelled from school?
- I don't care.
Maybe you don't care, but I do.
You guys don't want your friend
to be expelled from school, right?
Don't say "friend" so casually.
It's nothing easy or difficult.
Friends are friends.
What, you're telling me to
"be friends with the others"?
I'm not a kid. Don't make me laugh.
Sawada!
Shin!
Let him go. Forget him.
He can go to another school if he
gets expelled from here anyway.
He's got smarts.
Right? You don't have
to worry, right?
This one is good.
Don't say "friend" so casually.
Let him go. Forget him.
I'm home.
Welcome home, Missy.
Welcome home.
Tetsu, what happened to your head?
Sorry. It was my fault.
I said, it's fine.
A tile fell when Minoru was
working in the garden.
Before I knew it,
Big Bro was shielding me
Goodness You are so clumsy.
I am sorry!
Tetsu, Minoru.
Sugawara and I will go
to get the money tonight.
It's okay, I'll go now.
Are you disobeying me?
No, not at all.
I'm sorry.
Thank you, Young Boss.
Sure thing.
Minoru, take care of Tetsu.
Yes, Young Boss!
Boss, Missy, we'll go out now.
Take care.
- See you.
- See you.
Yeah, that's it.
What's the matter, Kumiko?
I just thought, that's what friends
should do.
Though they might say
harsh things to each other,
when something happens,
they move without thinking.
Yeah, that's true.
Young people nowadays can't do
what they obviously should.
Tetsu and Minoru were like that
as well when they first came here.
No wonder the world of
the yakuza is declining.
The most important thing
in our world
is how much you can sacrifice
yourself for other people.
Sacrifice for other people
Do it, so that you don't
get expelled.
Come on, go in.
Kuma.
You brought Sawada here?
Shin won't get expelled from school,
will he?
Kuma, are you worried about Sawada?
It's not worry
just that Shin isn't someone who
would fight without a good reason.
The reason that Shin got expelled
from his last school
was because of his friend.
Because of his friend?
His friend was suspected of smoking
a cigarette in the school,
then he was seriously beaten up
by his teacher.
But the teacher just got
the wrong idea.
But the teacher
- didn't apologize.
- Apologize.
He said the guy was suspected
because his conduct was bad.
That's why Sawada punched
his teacher
Shin always says that
friends are stupid,
but he cares about
his friends the most.
Kuma.
You are a nice boy too.
Shut up.
Come on,
you have to write the
written apology properly.
I told you, I can't write it.
Kuma worries about you.
You know that, right?
If you do, write it for him too.
Hey, what's the matter?
Well, Minami,
actually, I'm seeing someone else.
What?
I didn't want to deceive you!
I'm sorry!
Hey, wait, Ayumi!
Let's settle this if you're a man.
What did you say?
Hey! What are you guys doing?
Come to the stockyard
by the riverside later.
Don't run away.
Ara High's Watanabe told you
to fight him?
- You'll be in trouble!
- You'd better not go there.
Hey, Minami!
Hey
I saw Minami talking to
a student from Ara High,
but they looked like they were
ready to fight.
Ready to fight?
What?
I understand now what you meant.
I'm sorry.
I just wanted to tell you that.
Minami.
Where is Minami?
None of you know?
Ara High's Watanabe told him to
fight him and he's now gone.
Told him to fight him?
His girlfriend was seeing
Watanabe too.
And Minami went to fight with him?
Rather, the guys got angry and
told him to go and get tortured.
Tortured?
- Where has Minami gone?
- We don't know.
You don't know?
This is really bad.
He is totally going to be killed.
But what can we do?
He said he would go by himself.
We couldn't do anything.
What the heck?
You couldn't do anything?
And you just let him go?
You can just leave it like that?
And you call yourselves his friends?
Why didn't any one of you
go with Minami?
Why did you let him go alone?
Do you know who Watanabe is?
He is Ara High's leader.
There is no way that we can
beat that guy!
The question isn't whether
you can beat him or not.
Are you okay with letting
Minami get beaten up?
I thought you were friends!
Uchiyama, Noda, Kumai!
You guys always act as a group.
Is it just because you don't
want to be on your own?
You can't do anything
if you're on your own!
And it's our fault?
It's not a fault!
Nobody can do anything on their own.
That's why we hang out with friends.
But in return,
no matter what happens,
you have to stand by your friends
till the end!
You don't abandon your friends!
Even if you get punched,
get into trouble or get beaten up,
what's wrong with it?
You guys are stupid,
you have no manners
and you are incorrigible idiots,
yet I believed that you guys
were honest at heart.
But look at you now.
I
I'm so angry at myself.
I'm just so ashamed of myself!
You guys
You're really horrible.
Where are you going, Yankumi?
Where else?
Where are you going?
Lessons start soon!
Mr Sawatari will keep nagging you!
It's pointless being a teacher
if I can't protect my students.
Minami!
Minami!
You made a move on my girl
and you'll pay for it.
Minami!
Minami!
Where is he?
Stupid Minami
Minami!
Don't you dare punch my friend!
Sawada
You are fighting with me!
Shut up!
Just pass out now!
You did it!
Punch him more!
What the heck are you doing?
Who the heck are you?
Me?
I am their class teacher.
Yankumi
She said she's a teacher.
Get lost!
Sawada. Minami.
Go.
Go now!
Stop talking now!
Shut up!
You know
I am really angry now!
Get lost, stupid teacher!
Stupid kid.
You'll only injure yourself
if you pick that up.
You want to fight?
I will do anything to protect
my students!
I hope you are prepared for it!
I know it now.
Minami's girlfriend cheated on
her boyfriend.
That's why you fought
with Minami, right?
Yeah, so what?
There's something nice about you.
- Yankumi
- Shin!
Yankumi!
Yankumi!
Guys
Shin!
Seriously, are you
an idiot, Yankumi?
Do you think you can beat them
on your own?
Guys
You're too late!
Shut up!
Shin
Won't you be in trouble?
You were ordered to
reflect on yourself.
It doesn't even matter.
You idiot!
What if you get expelled
from school?
Don't worry.
I won't let that happen.
No matter what happens,
I will protect you all.
I
I'm your teacher, after all.
What the heck is this?
Sawada went missing and didn't write
his written apology,
and you disappeared with him
and didn't teach your class!
Well
Actually, Sawada had
a sudden stomach ache.
Stomach ache?
Wait, Mr Sawatari!
I told them that he'd better
go to the hospital.
I told them to go.
Miss Yamaguchi.
So Sawada has written
his written apology, right?
- Well
- Well?
There he is.
If you can't answer the question,
I'll ask Sawada himself.
Okay?
Sawada, have you done
your written apology?
(Written Apology)
You've written a long one
Yes!
Good morning.
Good morning!
Hey.
Morning.
Good morning
Hiya.
Okay, let's start our lesson.
I've dressed in the way
that is now on-trend.
- I'll quit school.
- Thief!
We will catch the real thief!
Of course it's better
if you're gone!
Don't be such a baby!
Don't put on airs and say
you can live on your own!
Scum?
I did it again!
Minoru!
I'm sorry.
She is a mother?
Paradise's Satsuki?
Idiot
All of you!
Sit up properly!
