Daddy!
Don't call me daddy.
I'm your boss.
Morning!
It's morning!
Get up!
She says she wants
to eat breakfast with you.
Come on and get up!
Get up!
That hit the spot!
Yay!
What's this?
That's what she wanted to eat.
Can't be helped!
You like it?
You guys
I think I'll go and see Kyu-chan today.
We have a job?
No, about searching for her mother.
What are you talking about?
Lift me up!
I'm still eating.
Look! I'll give you a banana!
Wah!
-Can you reach it?
-Banana.
-Yummy, yummy bananas!
-Banana!
-You're like a monkey.
-Give it to me!
-Take the banana.
-Give it to me.
You're going to return her
to her mom, right?
Ooh ooh.
-Yay!
-Of course.
-There's no way we can raise a kid.
-Banana
-At the end of the day
-Banana
we are social outcasts.
YADORIGI
COFFEE - SNACKS
Sorry about the other day.
What happened to that job
the other day?
You don't need to know.
Scary.
Forget that. This is what you requested.
Thank you.
Are you going to send it?
You said the target left
some kind of doll present.
Ah! Yeah that's right.
I'm going to send it using this. Thanks!
I found out where Miri's mom is.
I'm sure she is not mother of the year.
But that's better than none at all.
I have no idea
what my parents looked like.
I got this far making a lot of mistakes.
It's rare to hear you
talking about such things.
Really?
Here you go!
Dumplings.
Help yourself.
-Eat it.
-I'm not eating
Eat it, Daddy.
Oy!
I told you not to call me Daddy
when we are outside.
There's nobody here.
Bon appétit!
Let's go.
Baked potato
-It's the potato guy!
-Huh?
Delicious potato
It's no good.
That smile gets me every time.
I can't remember laughing much
when I was her age.
Me neither.
You had a bit
of a troubled upbringing too.
Not that I would know.
I'm not asking.
I'm not telling.
Hey! I want to eat a baked potato.
BAKED POTATO
Be careful. It's hot.
In the end
It wasn't my thing in the end.
Potato!
Did you get one for me?
-No, sorry.
-What?
Daddy, take half of mine.
You're such a good kid.
It stinks.
I'm just going to buy some drinks.
I'm going on the swings.
Come here.
Please.
Little girl
Are you on your own?
No.
Are you her dad?
No.
Then a family member?
No.
What's going on?
Are you her father?
Ah! Well yes.
Right, Miri?
Come on, call me Daddy.
Miri?
You told me not to call you Daddy outside.
I don't mean now.
You heard, right?
Her calling me Daddy.
Yes. I suppose so.
See. You shouldn't worry people, Miri.
Thanks. See you later.
You are allowed to call me Daddy
at times like that.
Yes, got it, Daddy.
You, as well.
At times like that,
you can pretend to be her daddy.
Why?
Because it complicates things
if you don't.
Is Rei my daddy too?
No.
Daddy Rei.
Give over.
Daddy Rei.
I said give over.
Right. Now, go to sleep.
If you don't,
a ghost will appear.
I want to see the ghost!
Ah! I lied.
There will be no ghosts.
Go to sleep.
I want to sleep with you, Daddy.
I'm turning off the light.
How about Rei?
No idea.
Here you are Rei.
Found you!
Why are you sleeping here?
I'm preparing against unexpected attacks.
Attacks?
Some scary people might come.
A ghost?
I'll sleep with you here.
No.
It's dangerous on your own.
If you have a bad dream
and pee in the bed,
Daddy Kazuki will get angry.
Go away, scary things!
What's that?
Mommy used to do it when I was a baby.
A smiley good luck charm.
Huh!
Smile.
I can't smile.
That's what I was told.
A good luck charm?
Really?
Smile.
Smile.
So she is her mother.
Are we going out?
Yes.
Do you want to eat
Mommy's hamburger steak?
Yes.
Then let's go and get some.
Yay!
Supermarket.
What does it say there?
It says "Business Supermarket".
Fishy Supermarket?
Bu-si-ness.
I like fishes.
She's not listening.
Well, it's the last day
we will be doing this.
It will be refreshing.
Are you sure it's okay?
What do you mean?
Nothing good will come
of us being together.
We just need to go back
to our original lives.
You're no good at pretending.
I'm just going to stake it out first.
Why?
Well you know.
Hamburger steak?
Be good and wait there.
STRIP CLUB
So this is it.
That song
Hey, I'm bored.
The swings.
I want to go on the swings.
Let's go.
-Let's go.
-Don't kick.
We don't open until tonight.
I need to ask you something.
Who are you?
Who the hell are you?
I told you not to pick up
customers on your own.
I didn't.
Stop making excuses.
Give over.
I'll get you.
Hey, give over.
Crap.
Are you all right?
What did you do to my man?
Sit down and I'll look at your cuts.
Push me, Rei.
I want to go on that next.
You get on too.
No.
On the other side.
We go up and down, up and down.
This is fun.
Look at me, Rei.
Are you watching?
-Is he the girl's father?
-Come on. Look at me!
-He could at least wave at her.
-Look at me.
Looks like she is being neglected.
Rei.
That was fun.
Let's play again tomorrow
with Daddy Kazuki.
Why do you call him Daddy Kazuki?
Daddy is Daddy.
He rescued me.
What about your real dad?
The person who rescues you
when you are in trouble
is your daddy.
Got it?
Father
Why can't you land the final blow?
It is kill
or be killed.
Don't disappoint me.
Daddy!
Don't call me daddy.
I'm your boss.
Come and get me.
Hey!
Where are you?
So, what do you want?
You have a daughter, right?
Do I?
She wants to meet her mom.
Do you work for him？
Where's the alimony?
You brought it, right?
That's not it.
I'm just looking after a lost child.
You're kidding.
Well, never mind.
She's got nothing to do with me anymore.
Of course, she does.
She wants to eat your hamburger steak.
That's a frozen meal from the supermarket.
It's 200 yen for a pack of three.
How nice to enjoy
such cheap things.
I don't know who she takes after.
Then you should make it for her.
You are her mother after all.
It's not like I wanted to have that kid.
I was tricked by an irresponsible man
who threw me out
without a penny to my name.
I don't want to look at her face.
How could you?
I want to punch her every time she laughs.
There's nothing funny about it at all.
When she smiles at me,
even though I tell her to stop
It just drives me crazy.
What crime has she committed?
You are irresponsible too.
Are you preaching to me?
When a child laughs,
it should make its parent
want to protect that child at all costs!
What do you know?
Day after day,
feeding and dressing her.
She has destroyed my dream,
and yet, she is still laughing.
That's what every parent has to do:
struggle for their child
and give up their life for their child.
Isn't that what happiness is?
People who love to preach to others
will lead their families into poverty.
You've probably never had
to raise a child.
What do you know about it?
Just get out of here.
Leave me alone.
So what's your name?
Miri Unasaka.
I'm four years old.
Where did you come from?
Over there.
Can you say your address?
I don't know.
She's lost.
I can go home on my own.
We will need to take her in.
Let's go to the police box.
No!
-No
-Come on. Behave!
I'm going home.
Stop making a fuss.
Come with us right away.
Help me, Daddy!
Daddy help me!
The person who rescues you
when you are in trouble
is your daddy.
No! Let me go!
Stay still!
Who are you?
Let her go.
What?
I promised to play with her tomorrow.
Are you her guardian?
No.
Is she the child of a friend of yours?
No.
I'm
her daddy.
Let's go home, Miri.
Daddy Rei!
Let's go, Miri.
Yes.
Daddy Kazuki.
Welcome back!
-Good job.
-I was playing with Daddy Rei.
She is calling you "Daddy Rei".
Daddy Rei.
You were grinning too.
As if
So what are we gonna do now?
Let me see
Shall we buy some dinner and go home?
For three people?
Yes, for three.
Understood.
What happened to your face?
I have no luck with women.
That figures.
This is Mommy's hamburger steak.
Right?
Eat as much as you like!
Yay!
It's nicer than Daddy Kazuki's.
It really is good.
You guys
Well I suppose it's all right.
Okay, you need to go to bed.
Daddy, let's sleep together.
Both of us with Daddy Rei too.
No way.
I couldn't relax.
Let me go!
No way!
We're all going
to sleep together.
Fishy Supermarket.
Rei, budge up that way, can't you?
Oy!
Are you asleep?
