- [MUFFLED SCREAM]
- [GOON SHOUTS]
[GOON SPEAKS INDISTINCTLY]
Mmm.
[IN JAPANESE] Cypress?
You have a good nose.
I had a boyfriend, back in the day.
Always wore cypress cologne.
[VENDOR] He must have been confident
to wear such a peaceful scent.
We were ten.
But he had cause to be confident.
[GOON SPEAKING JAPANESE]
Thank you for seeing me so late.
I hope I didn't wake you.
Oh, no.
I was up.
- And how's your father doing?
- [GOON SPEAKS JAPANESE]
- [MUFFLED SCREAMING]
- [THUDDING]
[CUSTOMER] Same old stubborn bull.
[GOON SHOUTS]
Won't quit working.
Taking conference
calls from the hospital.
- [MUFFLED GRUNTING]
- [GOON SPEAKING JAPANESE]
[VENDOR] Um, let's see.
I'm sorry you had to come so soon, Himé.
Oh, it was my fault.
[GOON 2 SPEAKS JAPANESE]
Mishap at work.

[MUFFLED SCREAMING]

- [GOON SPEAKS JAPANESE]
[MUFFLED SCREAMING CONTINUES]
- [CAPTIVE SCREAMING]
- [GOON SPEAKS JAPANESE]
Let's hurry this along, shall we?
I don't know anything! I swear!
- [MACHINE WHIRS]
- [GOON 2 SPEAKING JAPANESE]
- [CAPTIVE SCREAMING]
- [MACHINE WHIRRING]
- [THUD]
- [SCREAMING, WHIRRING STOPS]
- Sorry, dear.
- [GOON SPEAKS JAPANESE]
Where were we?
[HIMÉ GASPS]
You're an artist. Truly.
[CHUCKLES]
[HIMÉ GASPS]
[HIMÉ] I have to look my best
for this funeral I'm going to.
[SPY] Is she still there?
[HOMEBOT] No movement yet.
[BIRD SQUAWKING]
She hasn't left the house in weeks.
Mmm. I see.
It's sad, really.
[NORIKO] Do you think I'm happy
to postpone again?
Correct. I am not.
However, I've been a temple member
longer than you've been alive,
so I think I've earned some flexibility,
don't you?
I see.
Well, of course, my condolences
go to the priest.
Yes.
Very well.
Thank you.
[BEEPS]
Otsuka Hall is still available.
Mmm. That could be nice.
I just hope you can keep a date
for the funeral this time.
To think, poor Masa-san
stuck between worlds,
a spirit with no feet.
Also, I hate to mention,
but after the weekend
I do head to Nagano.
And I'm sorry, but I have
my cataract surgery Tuesday.
[NORIKO] So,
if I have to postpone again,
neither of you will be there.
I'm sorry, Noriko-sama.
- She still won't come to the phone.
- [MUSIC, CHATTERING ON TV]
[NORIKO ON PHONE] Well, I'm sorry
she can't be bothered.
Will you give her a
message for me again?
Of course.
If she comes out of her room.
If you come out and eat
I promise I won't try
to talk to you this time.
I just want to change your sheets,
air out the room a little.
Okay?
Masa?
They were my mother's.
I thought Suzie might
wear them tomorrow.
To the living room?
We can no longer wait.
Please tell her the funeral
will be tomorrow.
I'm afraid I can't do that.
Very well. Then I'll tell her.
I'm sorry, Noriko-sama.
She's not ready.
That's not your decision to make.
I've given her two weeks.
Masa must be mourned.
Oh, Suzie's definitely mourning.
You do not have to worry about that.
Crying and drinking
and failing to bathe
That is not mourning.
Tradition exists for a reason.
I've been trying, but she won't eat.
She barely sleeps.
I don't know what else to do.
Of course.
She wants to wait
to mourn my grandson until we
have confirmation of his fate.
I understand that feeling.
She is his mother.
But we will not wait
any longer for Masa.
Here. She was asking for this.
Perhaps it will perk her up.
However,
make sure she wears the pearls.
Please.
[SUNNY] Suzie?
[SUZIE GROANS]
[SUNNY] Suzie, are you in there?
Suzie?
Go away.
[SUNNY] Can I talk to you?
Don't come in.
What the fuck is wrong with you?
I told you not to come in.
Are you broken? [SNIFFLES]
I'm sorry, Suzie. I I must have
misheard.
Shouldn't you have supersonic hearing
or something?
- [CHUCKLES] I try not to abuse it.
- What do you want?
- Your mother-in-law stopped by.
- Jesus, just put me down.
Won't be necessary. She's gone.
[CHUCKLES] I got you, girl.
Please don't say that again.
That is to say I got rid of her,
but please don't hate me
she wants to have
Masa's funeral tomorrow.
And she wants you to wear
her mother's pearls.
[SIGHS] Well,
that's not happening, so
Right. I indicated that, but she's
going to have the funeral anyway.
Too bad. It's not her decision to make,
so too fucking bad.
Oh, she also said to give you this.
[SNIFFLES]
[BEEPING]
[BREATHES HEAVILY]
The fuck, Masa?
You know I would never hurt you, right?
Logically, if I wanted to do that,
I would've done it already.
Uh [CHUCKLES] I understand
that was the wrong thing to say.
Do you think?
[SIGHS]
[GASPS] Are we going out?
HOT AND DELICIOUS ROASTED SWEET POTATO
[IN JAPANESE] Good afternoon.
[GRUNTS]
[DOOR CLOSES]
[DOORBELL RINGS]
Ah. Not open yet, Sakamoto-san.
Come back in an hour?
[SPEAKS JAPANESE]
I am actually here to see Mixxy.
[IN JAPANESE] I'll take care of it.
- Suzie, actually.
- Hmm.
Listen, I'm I'm sorry
about the other night.
- [IN JAPANESE] Nice to meet you.
- Hmm.
you hated homebots.
[IMITATES LAUGH] She's over that now.
Okay. Could you just give us a minute?
[CHUCKLES] Couldn't decide
which ones to wear?
[SUZIE] Oh. Yeah.
Look at that.
Things have been, uh, weird.
- Which is kind of why I'm here.
- [BOSS CLEARS THROAT]
- I was hoping that we
- I'm sorry. I'm at work. So
[SUZIE] I I lied.
I don't have an ex.
My family was in a plane crash
right before Christmas.
My husband's dead.
They haven't found my son.
So they're still looking?
Anyway, uh, he left me this bot
- and-and I was thinking that maybe
- [BOSS SPEAKS JAPANESE]
[SIGHS]
I'm so sorry. My boss.
Of course. I'll let you get back to
[MIXXY] Uh
If you give me your address
I could come by later.
Really?
[NORIKO, IN JAPANESE] precisely.
I decided a big hall would be tacky.
Better to do it at home.
Wonderful.
See you tomorrow.
[EARPIECE BEEPS]
[LINE RINGING]
Stop.
[SUZIE,
So you've seen it?
[MIXXY] Yeah.
It was on the little package
of code I bought.
Apparently my lifestyle's been afforded
by robot sex and murder.
Well, at least
it's a really nice lifestyle.
I mean [CHUCKLES]
I'd robot murder someone
for this chair alone. [CHUCKLES]
Sorry. Am I being
A dick?
You're fine.
[MIXXY] Okay, good.
What about the bot? Sunny, right?
Does it seem, I don't know, normal?
- Define "normal."
- [SIGHS] Can't you just get rid of it?
[SUNNY, WHISPERING] Ugh, bitch.
- [MIXXY] If it's being such an ass.
- Oh, I tried. But it came back.
[SUNNY] Hey, guys.
Sorry. We only had two eggs left
and Suzie needs the calories.
So have some crickets.
They're good for IQ.
I'm not that hungry,
so we can share this.
Sunny, another plate, please.
Don't bother.
Huh.
[IN JAPANESE] Is Suzie
on a low-sodium diet?
Salt's the silent killer.
So, sure, I'm happy to get you
some soy sauce.
I'm just having trouble
parsing all this, you know?
Like I just need to figure out
what he was up to.
Get some kind of proof.
I was thinking, since you know
so much about this stuff,
that maybe you could tell me where to go
or ask around, or
[MIXXY] Listen.
I'm sorry I came on so strong
the other night.
I definitely wouldn't have
if I knew what you were dealing with,
but this stuff you're talking about
I mean, that little bit of code I have
is just, like, two tiny algae cells
floating on top of the ocean.
And you know how there's
these blind prehistoric monsters
snuffling around the bottom?
No.
[SIGHS]
You don't wanna fuck with the bottom.
But we could still talk, or drink,
or whatever.
I really do wanna help.
No, no, no. I get it. I do.
My husband's funeral's tomorrow,
so I should go
iron my dress or something.
Grieve like a normal person.
Oh, my God. That's not what I meant.
- I mean
- [SUZIE GROANS]
grieving is just a way of trying
to make sense of something
that's never gonna make sense.
There is nothing normal about it.
[MIXXY] Look,
I got my code from this guy
I went to middle school with. Takumi.
He's a bit of a twat, but
I'm sure he'd
be thrilled to answer a few que
Can we go talk to him?
- What, now?
- Yeah. Yes.
I don't know if two drunk women
grilling an illegal code dealer
sounds like the best idea.
Actually, it sounds like
the highlight of my week.
[CHATTERING]
It's just over here.
BEWARE OF PERVERTS
[TAKUMI SPEAKING JAPANESE]
[SUZIE CLEARS THROAT]
Miku-chan.
- [OBJECTS CLATTER]
- [TAKUMI EXCLAIMS]
Miku-chan.
[IN JAPANESE] Did anyone ever tell you
your eyes are all the colors?
Taku, you're bleeding.
Am I?
Sooo, is that Glo-Get-Her
treating you right?
Feel like it's more
style than substance.
Okay, okay. Challenge accepted.
I'm gonna pick a home run for you.
some very specific needs.
[SPEAKS JAPANESE]
She's looking for something else.
Oh, are you You're together?
I was wondering,
do, um, all of these toys come with
their own dark manual code?
[IN JAPANESE] Are you trying
to get me in trouble?
[TAKUMI, IN JAPANESE]
I can't believe you told.
[SUNNY] Takumi-san, my owner's harmless.
She's just been burned a few times
buying counterfeit drives,
but Mixxy says you're the real deal.
You said I was the real deal?
Obviously, dude.
all the time.
[CHUCKLES]
[IN JAPANESE]
It's just, I'm not holding right now.
No worries.
Can you just tell us where to go then?
Who else to talk to?
