1122: For a Happy Marriage (2024) s01e04 Episode Script
Episode 4

So,
both you and I,
let's start putting
our own families first.
Does it feel good?
What?
Does it feel good
making a pledge
to rebuild your marriage?
Ichiko.
I need to ask to avoid any future issues.
I can go all the way today, right?
Yes.
Please.
Okay.
Mitsuki?
Mitsuki, why?
I
I guess I'm the kind of person
who would do this.
Otoya, I
I really loved
and hated you so much.
Even after we break up,
I don't want you to have sex
with anyone else.
I'm so sorry, Otoya. It hurts, right?
Yeah. A lot.
It feels good, right?
Yeah.
It feels good.
The bleeding isn't stopping.
It will. It will stop. I think it will.
Why don't I get an ambulance?
You can't.
It will be bad for both of us
if this becomes a big deal.
Mitsuki.
Go home.
-But
-I'll be fine.
Mitsuki.
Take care of yourself.
Otoya.
Just go.
Go. I'll be okay.
Okay.
Fuck, it hurts.
I can't die.
I won't die, Ichiko.
Thanks for booking me.
No, thank you.
I'm really happy I did.
Thank you.
-Cheers.
-Cheers.
It's hard for me to come when I'm nervous,
but I orgasmed right away.
I knew it. You're really good.
It's not just sex.
I haven't touched anyone,
or shared loving kisses,
or hugged someone in a really long time.
I felt it, not just with my body,
but also deep in my soul.
It was phenomenal.
Ichiko.
Sorry.
Here. Tissue.
-Thanks.
-Sure.
Want some water?
Yeah.
Here.
Is your marriage,
what you'd call, sexless?
Yeah.
You can call it that.
It's been about two years, I guess.
I see.
It was originally
because I didn't want to do it.
So my husband found a lover,
and I accepted it.
Since I had absolutely no sex drive
and aside from sex,
our relationship was really good.
I thought that things would
be okay like this,
so I did nothing to change it.
And now here I am, doing this.
I didn't do this to get back at my husband
but I think a part of me wanted revenge.
But when I actually did it,
it was better than expected.
And made me realize sex really is amazing.
Our relationship is messy and weird,
right? Even though we're married.
I have never been married,
so it's not for me to say.
But listening to what you just said
I think you simply hate it, right?
That your husband has a lover.
Why don't you tell him?
But
it's too late now.
It's never too late.
He's your husband.
Here. Blow your nose.
Thank you.
But
I don't know what to do.
He turned me down
when I tried to sleep with him before.
He did?
Yeah.
I see.
But
sex isn't only about penetration.

Hello, I'm from the front desk.
Yeah.
I'm opening the door.
Okay.
Pardon me. I'm coming in.
I'm really sorry.
I wanted your help.
I see. Okay.
Please use this.
Sorry I made a mess.
Don't mind it.
Please lie down.
You'll be fine. You're in good hands.
Are you okay?
I have a taxi waiting at the back door.
Thank you.
I'm really sorry about this.
You don't need to apologize.
I've seen worse
at the previous hotel I worked for.
Worse than this?
Yes.
Besides,
sir, you are still alive.
Yeah.
URGENT CARE CENTER
Wow.
This has got to hurt.
Yes, it hurts.
How did this happen?
I tripped and
the kenzan happened to be right there.
Kenzan?
It's used in ikebana.
Then it will be bad if it gets infected
by the bacteria in the plants.
I think it will be okay.
-Really?
-It was a brand new kenzan.
Was it?
Then I'll give you antibiotics
and painkillers.
Okay.
Rest here
while the medicine takes its effect.
Okay.
Wow. This has really got to hurt.
Doctor.
Yes?
Can I
Will it still function properly?
Function?
Oh, erection?
Yeah.
Physically, there is no problem.
Physically
Well,
that type of thing is, you know
If you experience issues,
the cause will be psychological.
Weren't you scared?
OTOYA AIHARA - I GOT TREATED
AT THE HOSPITAL AND I'M OKAY
Then contact me if you need anything.
Even if it's just to talk.
Sure.
This.
It's like my business card.
Okay.
Thanks.
So, may fortune favor you.
Good luck.
Bye.
Bye.
REI - TO ICHIKO,
THANKS FOR TODAY
BOOK ME AGAIN, OKAY?
What should I do with my sorrow?
Who will be the one to save me?
I'm Romeo and you're my Juliet
This is a freaking pain in my ass
I wanna hold you in my arms
I wanna watch you as you sleep
I wanna eat the meals you make
Whether I'm sent east or west
It's all a freaking pain in my ass
I'm home.
I'm back.
I'm home.
Welcome back.
Hey, Otoyan.
Can we talk right now?
Now might not be a good time.
Sorry. My back is hurting again.
Really? Are you okay?
Yeah. I took some medicine.
I'll just sleep it off.
Okay.
Otoyan, happy birthday.
Good night.
Thanks. Good night.
Is Hiro asleep?
Yeah.
He fell asleep on the way home
from my mom's.
He's sleeping soundly.
How was your day, Mitsuki?
Wasn't it your last flower class?
Yeah.
Today was the last class.
But the ikebana class
isn't what you're really asking about,
is it?
Shiro.
You knew I was having an affair. Right?
Why don't you sit here?
I knew.
That is why I asked if it was over.
I ended it.
But
I stabbed him.
What did you just say?
I stabbed him.
Oh, but it was with a kenzan flower base.
What are you saying?
I'm wondering that myself.
What is the point of making up such a lie?
No?
You really stabbed him?
Is he okay?
He told me he went to the hospital
and is okay.
-So you can relax.
-No.
That is not important.
Why did you do it?
I
I didn't think you were that stupid.
Really?
You've been taking me for an idiot
this entire time.
Are you saying it's my fault?
No.
I'm responsible for the stupid things
I've done.
And it won't create any problems for you.
Isn't that what you wanted?
Go ahead. You can hit me.
I won't hit you.
Because I love you.
Even if you're the type to stab
the man she loves
I will not hit the woman I love.
Ouch. Ouch.
Are the pain meds working?
Good morning.
Good morning.
You're up early today.
Yeah.
I had a rush job so I got up early.
Want some coffee?
Yeah, thanks.
Is your back okay?
Can you go to work?
Yeah.
Anyway, Otoyan.
Did you notice anything?
Like what?
This. It's your birthday present.
I left it on the table for you yesterday.
Sorry. I didn't see it.
Open it.
Mount Fuji sake cups.
So cute. Thank you.
I bought sake too.
See?
Want to drink it together tonight?
I'm only working until the afternoon
so I'll make something to go with it.
What would you like?
Sorry, Ichiko.
Since I'm still not feeling good,
I'll take a rain check.
What?
That sake looks like it will be good.
You can drink it yourself.
I'll go get ready for work.
That's not what I meant, Otoyan.
I bought it
because I wanted to drink it with you.
Oh, of course.
I'm sorry.
Thank you.
Let's drink it when I get better.
Okay.
This is Otoya. How are you?
I'm not feeling well,
so I won't attend the meeting.
I'm sorry for the inconvenience.
I'll look at the meeting notes tomorrow.
Yes. Yes. Thank you.
Bye.

10 SPOTS IN TOKYO

TO RECHARGE AND RELAX
FOR THE GAPS IN YOUR ITINERARY!
MAKE YOUR TRIP TO TOKYO MORE FUN
TOKYO SPACE & SCIENCE MUSEUM
VIEW THE STARRY SKY
IN A 18M DIAMETER PLANETARIUM
TOKYO SPACE & SCIENCE MUSEUM
Here, in a city like Tokyo,
the building and street lights are
so bright and strong
that it's become harder to see the stars.
But what if we turn off
all the city and factory lights
that brighten the skies?
What will the night sky look like?
A beautiful starry sky is constantly
shining above our heads like this.
Now if you look around the sky,
you can already see
the spring constellations
rising up in the eastern sky.
That bright star is Vega,
a first magnitude star.
It looks so good!
Right?
This one is done.
-Here.
-Thanks.
Hot.
Food grilled on an open flame is so tasty.
But don't you think
we bought too much food?
It should be okay.
-It will be okay?
-Yeah.
Rain?
-Yeah.
-It's raining.
-It's raining hard. What's going on?
-Oh, no.
-Evacuate. Evacuate.
-Wait, what?
-Evacuate. Our stuff.
-Our things.
Hold on.
What should we do?
Crap.
Sorry.
Wow.
-Oh, my God.
-Oh, my
-A sudden heavy shower?
-It's really raining.
Hey, isn't it leaking?
Well, it's a mesh tent.
Are all tents like this?
No, there is a covering for it.
-Then let's use it.
-I left it at home.
Why?
I thought it would make it hot.
And it's bulky.
-You idiot.
-But I have a raincoat.
-A raincoat?
-Yeah, raincoat. Hold on.
-Raincoat, raincoat.
-Raincoat.
-Here. The raincoat.
-Thanks.
We should go take cover somewhere.
-Right, take cover.
-Let's go.
-Where to?
-This way.
-How about there?
-Okay.
-That way.
-The meat.
-Oh, the meat.
-Well
-But the meat.
-The poor meat.
You know.
Since we're beginners at this,
we should have gone somewhere easy,
like a place with a cottage.
I suggested some places like that,
but you said no since there will be
college students there partying.
What? I did?
You did. That's why I looked
for a quiet spot and came here.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
Otoyan.
-Come here. Come on.
-What?
What is it?
That. Look.
Beautiful.
Yeah, it's beautiful.
Is that the Milky Way?
This trip was a total mess,
but it was still fun.
I really loved Ichiko's candidness,
her strength, the way she lives
life at her own pace,
and how she finds fun in everything.
Even back then.
To the west, you can see a pale band
of light that looks like a cloud.
It is the Milky Way.
But thinking about it now,
when she said it was fun on that day,
it was her way of being kind
and telling me
it was okay that I screwed up.
The shape of the Milky Way we see
is from our perspective inside the
I can easily think of a few times
she acted as if she was enjoying herself
so I wouldn't be hurt.
Ichiko has always been really good to me.
I'm back, Ichiko.
I wasn't feeling good so I left early.
But somehow,
I started feeling better on my way home
and could do some shopping.
I got a couple of things.
Look.
Dried mullet roe.
And simmered whale with ginger.
So, Ichiko.
Let's drink that sake
you got me for my birthday.
What's wrong?
What about you, Otoyan? What's wrong?
What do you mean?
Did you get hurt?
Hurt?
I found a bloody gauze
in the bathroom trash can.
Oh, right.
Yesterday, I tripped and cut myself
coming home.
Where?
On my leg. Around here.
Show me.
You don't have to look at it.
It's not a big deal, really.
Otoyan.
You left this paper bag
on the balcony, didn't you?
It was filled with bloody clothes.
You didn't have a client dinner yesterday.
You went to see her, right?
Sorry. I looked at your phone.
What happened?
No more lies.
Otoyan.
I want you to tell me the truth.
Like you said
I saw her yesterday.
I'm sorry I lied.
You probably won't believe me,
but I was going to end things with her.
And then
yesterday,
I met her at the hotel.
And
She stabbed me with a kenzan.
Where?
My genitals.
Sorry, Otoyan.
I'm so sorry.
Why are you apologizing?
Don't do that.
You shouldn't be apologizing
like one of those wives
with a cheating husband in a drama.
I'm the one that's wrong.
No.
It's a problem between us,
but I'm the only one who ignored it
and made you deal with it alone.
So you ended up getting hurt.
I was the one
who told you to have an affair.
But I couldn't take back my words
because I thought
it was ugly to be jealous.
I couldn't accept my feelings
and was too proud and stubborn,
so I didn't say anything.
But that made me even more confused.
I tried to tell myself
that everything was okay, but
I finally realized
I hated the idea
of you having a relationship
with someone else.
So I thought I had to tell you how I felt.
Really. It's so hard to be honest
and tell you about my feelings.
Don't cry, Ichiko.
When you're in pain, I'm in pain.
Ichiko.
Thank you for telling me the truth.
I'm really happy right now.
I
I had given up.
Actually, I stopped thinking about
ever sleeping with you again.
I apologize for what I did in the past.
No, I didn't mean to bring that up again.
But now,
I
really want to
make love to you.
What?
That makes me so incredibly happy.
Right now
I'm injured, but
Ichiko.
Let's start doing it again
when I get better.
Yeah.
Welcome back.
Didn't I tell you to go to bed first
since I'll be late?
Yeah.
But I couldn't sleep anyway.
Shiro.
I want to talk.
About?
Yesterday's conversation.
Didn't you break up?
I'll forget about it.
Don't bring it up again.
I broke up with him,
but not with you.
I'm tired. Let's talk next time.
Thirty minutes is fine, so please.
If we run away
instead of talking about it now,
we'll never fix our marriage,
even if I ended my affair.
Mitsuki,
what do you want from me?
You said you still love me, right?
Even after what I did?
But you're only seeing
the part of me that you want to see.
Then did he see the whole you,
love you, and accept you?
Is that why you lied to your family
and snuck around with him?
Had sex with him?
I admit I was weak,
and what I did was wrong.
But I want to talk about our future.
Stop it.
Stop.
No. Stop.
I said stop!
Shut up.
Ouch.
You've gotten pretty violent.
What about your violence?
Even if we're married,
forcing sex is rape.
Now you're acting like a feminist?
Did you learn about human rights
during your affair?
I really hate how you protect your
own feelings by always looking down
on other people.
I'm going to bed.
Shiro.
I want you
to see me as a human being.
We have to change,
both you and I.
If we don't,
then I can't be with you.
Ouch.
Watching Otoyan as he slept peacefully,
I kept thinking
about what I did yesterday.
When Otoyan was stabbed in the genitals,
I was having crazy hot sex
with a gigolo from the brothel.
THIS IS A WORK OF FICTION.
So,
both you and I,
let's start putting
our own families first.
Does it feel good?
What?
Does it feel good
making a pledge
to rebuild your marriage?
Ichiko.
I need to ask to avoid any future issues.
I can go all the way today, right?
Yes.
Please.
Okay.
Mitsuki?
Mitsuki, why?
I
I guess I'm the kind of person
who would do this.
Otoya, I
I really loved
and hated you so much.
Even after we break up,
I don't want you to have sex
with anyone else.
I'm so sorry, Otoya. It hurts, right?
Yeah. A lot.
It feels good, right?
Yeah.
It feels good.
The bleeding isn't stopping.
It will. It will stop. I think it will.
Why don't I get an ambulance?
You can't.
It will be bad for both of us
if this becomes a big deal.
Mitsuki.
Go home.
-But
-I'll be fine.
Mitsuki.
Take care of yourself.
Otoya.
Just go.
Go. I'll be okay.
Okay.
Fuck, it hurts.
I can't die.
I won't die, Ichiko.
Thanks for booking me.
No, thank you.
I'm really happy I did.
Thank you.
-Cheers.
-Cheers.
It's hard for me to come when I'm nervous,

You did. That's why I looked
for a quiet spot and came here.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
Otoyan.
-Come here. Come on.
-What?
What is it?
That. Look.
Beautiful.
Yeah, it's beautiful.
Is that the Milky Way?
This trip was a total mess,
but it was still fun.
I really loved Ichiko's candidness,
her strength, the way she lives
life at her own pace,
and how she finds fun in everything.
Even back then.
To the west, you can see a pale band
of light that looks like a cloud.
It is the Milky Way.
But thinking about it now,
when she said it was fun on that day,
it was her way of being kind
and telling me
it was okay that I screwed up.
The shape of the Milky Way we see
is from our perspective inside the
I can easily think of a few times
she acted as if she was enjoying herself
so I wouldn't be hurt.
Ichiko has always been really good to me.
I'm back, Ichiko.
I wasn't feeling good so I left early.
But somehow,
I started feeling better on my way home
and could do some shopping.
I got a couple of things.
Look.
Dried mullet roe.
And simmered whale with ginger.
So, Ichiko.
Let's drink that sake
you got me for my birthday.
What's wrong?
What about you, Otoyan? What's wrong?
What do you mean?
Did you get hurt?
Hurt?
I found a bloody gauze
in the bathroom trash can.
Oh, right.
Yesterday, I tripped and cut myself
coming home.
Where?
On my leg. Around here.
Show me.
You don't have to look at it.
It's not a big deal, really.
Otoyan.
You left this paper bag
on the balcony, didn't you?
It was filled with bloody clothes.
You didn't have a client dinner yesterday.
You went to see her, right?
Sorry. I looked at your phone.
What happened?
No more lies.
Otoyan.
I want you to tell me the truth.
Like you said
I saw her yesterday.
I'm sorry I lied.
You probably won't believe me,
but I was going to end things with her.
And then
yesterday,
I met her at the hotel.
And
She stabbed me with a kenzan.
Where?
My genitals.
Sorry, Otoyan.
I'm so sorry.
Why are you apologizing?
Don't do that.
You shouldn't be apologizing
like one of those wives
with a cheating husband in a drama.
I'm the one that's wrong.
No.
It's a problem between us,
but I'm the only one who ignored it
and made you deal with it alone.
So you ended up getting hurt.
I was the one
who told you to have an affair.
But I couldn't take back my words
because I thought
it was ugly to be jealous.
I couldn't accept my feelings
and was too proud and stubborn,
so I didn't say anything.
But that made me even more confused.
I tried to tell myself
that everything was okay, but
I finally realized
I hated the idea
of you having a relationship
with someone else.
So I thought I had to tell you how I felt.
Really. It's so hard to be honest
and tell you about my feelings.
Don't cry, Ichiko.
When you're in pain, I'm in pain.
Ichiko.
Thank you for telling me the truth.
I'm really happy right now.
I
I had given up.
Actually, I stopped thinking about
ever sleeping with you again.
I apologize for what I did in the past.
No, I didn't mean to bring that up again.
But now,
I
really want to
make love to you.
What?
That makes me so incredibly happy.
Right now
I'm injured, but
Ichiko.
Let's start doing it again
when I get better.
Yeah.
Welcome back.
Didn't I tell you to go to bed first
since I'll be late?
Yeah.
But I couldn't sleep anyway.
Shiro.
I want to talk.
About?
Yesterday's conversation.
Didn't you break up?
I'll forget about it.
Don't bring it up again.
I broke up with him,
but not with you.
I'm tired. Let's talk next time.
Thirty minutes is fine, so please.
If we run away
instead of talking about it now,
we'll never fix our marriage,
even if I ended my affair.
Mitsuki,
what do you want from me?
You said you still love me, right?
Even after what I did?
But you're only seeing
the part of me that you want to see.
Then did he see the whole you,
love you, and accept you?
Is that why you lied to your family
and snuck around with him?
Had sex with him?
I admit I was weak,
and what I did was wrong.
But I want to talk about our future.
Stop it.
Stop.
No. Stop.
I said stop!
Shut up.
Ouch.
You've gotten pretty violent.
What about your violence?
Even if we're married,
forcing sex is rape.
Now you're acting like a feminist?
Did you learn about human rights
during your affair?
I really hate how you protect your
own feelings by always looking down
on other people.
I'm going to bed.
Shiro.
I want you
to see me as a human being.
We have to change,
both you and I.
If we don't,
then I can't be with you.
Ouch.
Watching Otoyan as he slept peacefully,
I kept thinking
about what I did yesterday.
When Otoyan was stabbed in the genitals,
I was having crazy hot sex
with a gigolo from the brothel.
THIS IS A WORK OF FICTION.
