Grandpa and Grandma Turn Young Again (2024) s01e03 Episode Script
Grandpa Turns Old Again
1
School, eh
After I finished primary school,
all I did was working on the field
I don't remember studying anything.
Did you go to a high-class school in Tokyo?
Just for a while.
The female academy in Tokyo
was like a dream.
I could eat rice whenever I wanted to,
and the sink actually let out water.
Such was my daily life there.
But I was stranded on the roadside after war,
and went back to the countryside.
I thought getting covered
in mud alone was pure suffering.
However
Ever since I met you,
I have realised that getting dirty
wasn't so bad after all.
But you could have anything in Tokyo.
Yeah, I guess there's nothing
you couldn't have there.
Oh, but there's only one thing
I couldn't get there.
Oh?
What's that?
Nah, I'll keep it to myself.
It's not something
I should say out loud.
What the heck?!
Now I'm curious!
A STORY ABOUT A GRANDPA AND GRANDMA
WHO RETURNED BACK TO THEIR YOUTH
EPISODE 3: GRANDPA BECOMES OLD AGAIN
EPISODE 3: GRANDPA BECOMES OLD AGAIN
Grandpa Becomes Old Again.
What's this?
It's good for preventing dementia,
so Dad told me to bring it here.
The stuff that makes plip plop
sounds on a small screen?
The only games I know are
menko, beigoma, and tag.
Yeah, sure.
I'll just leave it here with you.
RESIDENT PADDY III
RESIDENT PADDY III
Whoa!
RESIDENT PADDY III
RESIDENT PADDY III
Grandma, the dead are walking in this game!
What poor souls.
Namu Amida Butsu,
Namu Amida Butsu.
IT'S DANGEROUS FROM HERE ON OU
It's dangerous from here on out.
IT'S DANGEROUS FROM HERE ON OU
Shiori, this guy keeps sayin' the same line.
IT'S DANGEROUS FROM HERE ON OU
That's just how he's programmed to.
OBTAINED RECOVERY HERB
OBTAINED RECOVERY HERB
Obtained Recovery Herb.
We'll be thieves if we open
the treasure box in the house!
We'll be punished!
Buddha will be angry!
That's just the system.
So the main character can
recover with just a herb?
What a super man.
I knew this would be hard
for old-timers.
Looks like they're not
cut out for games
They didn't wish to become like this.
Then, let's aim for the head,
and end their suffering painlessly.
That's the way.
Grandpa, he dropped a chainsaw.
I have a shotgun,
so you use it.
They're messin' the field, Grandpa!
What?!
Now that's cruel!
They're hard to cut,
just like hedges.
Now, stop moving
Or I'll miss my shots.
A FEW DAYS LATER
A FEW DAYS LATER
We got all the trophies,
A FEW DAYS LATER
so we're out of stuff to do.
A FEW DAYS LATER
You're kidding me!
A FEW DAYS LATER
Oh!
Long time no see!
Shiori!
Mino, enough clinging to me!
It's been a while since we last met,
but you're so cold!
We're in the same school, but we rarely meet
since we're in different buildings.
You're annoying.
We used to play a lot.
How can you be so harsh to me?
That was in the past.
But, Shiori
I see you always love
Grandpa and Grandma.
I mean, you're in their house now.
While your tongue is sharper now,
you don't change at all inside.
That was also in the past.
I don't really like them
or anything now
Well, Granpa, uh
I'm okay, Mino.
I'm pe-pe-pe-pe-perfectly fine
- See, Shiori?
- My grandkid hates me
- See, Shiori?
- My grandkid hates me
- You gotta take back what you said!
He's broken beyond repair now!
Even if you say so
D-D-Don't mind me
Granpa, that was just a figure of speech
Um
It was all a lie.
Actually
Anyway, please
Don't hate me
I'm glad I have a long life!
Yay! Grandpa's back to normal!
I beg you, shut up.
SPINNING TOP
SPINNING TOP
Spinning Top.
A MORTAR-SHAPED SPINNING TOP PLAYED ON ICE
A mortar-shaped spinning top played on ice.
This again?
The same hourglass dream I keep
having since I returned young
What a mysterious space, this
Grandma said she's also been
having the same dream.
We're enjoying being
young again too much
We still have a lot we haven't done
There's a lot I want to do for her.
LET'S GO TO ATAMI!
LET'S GO TO ATAMI!
There's also the honeymoon trip
Yoshiake and the others prepared.
Grandma now should be able to go.
No one knows what life
has in store
Grandma Grandma
Grandma!
What's wrong, Grandpa?
I'm turning old again
Huh?!
Whaat?!
I don't feel sick
or anything for now.
So this is a relief
I guess
You prefer the young me, eh.
If you're with an old man like me,
it'll be like chalk and cheese.
Grandpa.
Yer misunderstandin' me.
I don't fall in love
with the young you,
or the old you.
I fall in love with the only
Shozo Saito in the world.
Stop blamin' yer age.
Nothin's changin' between us.
Right
I thought my getting
older again was bad.
But that would be a desecration of
the life I walked with her.
I'd be using my age
as a convenient reason to give up
I was indulged with young age
I forgot the most important thing.
Grandma.
If we're still going to the Atami trip
We're going just like this.
If I give up my life because of old age,
then I'm still too young for this world!
Those eyes are what made me
love you
Grandpa
I GOT BALD
I got bald
SAITO CLINIC
SAITO CLINIC
What's going on with your bodies?
I'm asking the same question.
Maybe it's the traces
from my young age.
Your kidney and liver are
showing signs of aging.
Don't overwork yourself.
What's the reality?
For now, he should be fine.
In fact, his body functions seem to be
recovering a bit than before he turned young.
His body will surely
turn old again bit by bit.
Rather, it's you I'm worried about.
Me?
Right now, your body is as healthy
as someone in her 20's
If you grow old even just
for a bit like that
I don't know how long you'll live
I don't fear my death
But at this rate, Grandpa
Will he live for another 70 years?
By then, Takahiro and the others
will be gone.
Even worse, Mino and Shiori too
I don't like this
Dying alone
I don't want that
They seem to be closer today
It's just like a grandfather
and his granddaughter.
You're the only one returning old again!
Well, stuff happened
I still have some strength left.
Really?
Why don't we see for ourselves?
Don't force yourself, Pops.
Oh, don't worry about me.
You too, Dear.
I know.
If you win, I'll give you something nice.
Something nice?
The Atami trip
I'll change it into a room
with an open bath.
With an open bath?
Get ready, Dad, Grandpa.
His grip is stronger than I thought.
He'll be mad if I let him win on purpose,
so I guess I'll put in some effort.
Ready
Start!
Grandpa wins!
Dear!

HOME CENTRE
Ever since I turned old,
whenever I go shopping
with Grandma
BUZZ BUZZ
People keep staring at us.
They don't see us as a couple
Grandpa, what colour do you like?
Huh? Oh
I guess it's red
Grandpa, why're ya keepin' yer distance?
Well, uh
People have been starin'
What about them?
It's fine if we're inside
But to be outside like this
Um
Maybe we should pretend
we're not a couple
Um, is there a problem, Sir?
Err
Are you looking for a present
for your granddaughter?
Uh, well
That's, uh
I guess I should go along with him.
Yes, I'm shopping with my granddaughter
No.
He's my husband.
It's only natural
if people see us that way,
but I hope you understand, Mister.
I know why you wanted to lie,
but I hate being anything
other than your wife.
Grandpa.
Sorry, Grandma
SNOW SHOVEL
Without the snow shovel,
SNOW SHOVEL
one can't live in the snow.
Grandma's favourite mame daifuku.
Ever since we turned young again,
we used to eat it every day
But now, she doesn't eat it
in front of me again.
I, having turned old again,
am afraid of diabetes,
so I don't eat it anymore
Yer not eatin' the mame daifuku?
I'm not hungry now.
I'll eat it later, so don't worry.
Really?
Even though there are still
traces of his young body,
his chronic diseases are
starting to show up again.
Grandpa also loves mame daifuku.
I also love sweet things.
But
Since Grandpa can't eat
this due to his health,
I can't be the only one eatin'.
I know I'm bein' too considerate.
But I can't just bring myself
to eatin' this in front of him.
Grandma.
Grandpa?!
Err I wasn't eatin' this in secret
so you wouldn't find out
Yer bein' considerate to me
You don't have to
You see, Grandma
For me, the look on yer face
when eatin'
is the best medicine.

IT OFTEN SELLS OUT, IT'S HARD TO COME BY
It often sells out, it's hard to come by.
IT OFTEN SELLS OUT, IT'S HARD TO COME BY
After losing my parents,
I lost my house and had to go live and work
for a relative on my mother's side.
My father was a rich man,
but because he was so arrogant
toward my mother's relatives,
I was shunned by them.
She ain't speakin' a word.
Gotta be not used to the place yet.
She ain't so selfish, though
I didn't even know what they were
saying due to their thick accent.
A phrase could mean an order, or a volition.
Hard to believe I was
with fellow Japanese.
The climate, which had
endured cold and hunger,
did not favour people from other regions.
I, who spoke like a Tokyo dweller,
was an oddball.
There were some
who ridiculed me for that.
My mother's relatives' house
was also hard to stay in,
so whenever I was done on the field,
I would spend my time at the shrine.
Until one day
Um
If I recall, yer
I'm Sasaki, I moved here
from Tokyo a while ago.
Oh, ya didn't have to come down.
Who are you?
My name's Saito.
I'm growin' apples in a nearby field.
A lonely girl sittin' on 'er own
made me curious
Please forget it.
Ya must be hungry.
I'm not used to the salty
and sweet food around here.
What's wrong?
You'd better stop this.
You should've heard
the rumours about me.
Or maybe you're plotting something
Just eat.
I don't know who you are,
where yer from.
But that's no reason
to let someone get hungry.
I don't want anyone
to tell me that this village
can't even support a lonely girl
with nothing to rely on.
See ya!
So there are people like him
In such an enduring climate
there is a sliver of kindness
So salty
A FEW DAYS LATER
You're so persistent, aren't you?
How could you talk to me every day?
I mean, I go through this shrine
to go home, and I'm curious
The bus stop at the back of the mountain
is closer to home, and has less people.
I prefer this place to there.
How inconsiderate
Inconsiderate
It's nothing.
If you can't figure out that much,
you still have a long way to go.
Why are you sitting next to me
like it's only natural?
Huh? Ah, sorry.
If you sit next to me,
people will get the wrong idea.
You better be careful.
Got it.
He seems so restless, nor does he seem
to have any real education.
How far will he be able
to melt my heart?
A sight to behold.
PRESENT TIME
He melted it all.
RED RICE AND INARI ARE SUPER SWEE
RED RICE AND INARI ARE SUPER SWEE
Red rice and Inari are super sweet.
There it is! The hourglass dream
I haven't had in a while.
I've been waiting for this
So, I turned old again
after flipping this
Maybe I can turn younger again
if I flip it again?
Now's the time to investigate!
This is sand?
I can see Grandma's surprised look now
Now, get surprised, Grandma!
Grandpa, fix yer bedhair.
Ain't that a shallow reaction!
Grandpa
I've been curious 'bout somethin'
Are we
immortal?
I don't think that's the case.
The sand is made to leak outside.
One day, it'll become empty.
When it runs out,
we don't know what will happen.
I think the miracle of us
gettin' young again will end.
Don't worry.
We're not immortal.
We won't outlive our descendants.
Lookin' at the sand,
I guess we have a few years ahead.
I won't be leavin' you alone, so fret not.
Thank you
Grandpa
