[DOOR CHIMES]
[GASPING, EXHALES DEEPLY]
[SPEAKS JAPANESE]
I'd keep an eye on me if I were you.
[SIREN BLARES]
[DETECTIVE] So?
This was under your pillow?
Which told us not to come here.
WAIT FOR DIRECTIONS.
DON'T GO TO THE POLICE.
[IN JAPANESE] You did the right thing
coming to us.
It's just odd.
They don't usually target civilians.
Did you bring a picture of your friend?
[IN JAPANESE]
In that case, description is fine.
[GROANS]
Could I ask you to shift just so?
[SUZIE] Uh.
Oh.
- [THUD]
- Ow!
[DETECTIVE GRUNTS]
Tell me about Sunny-san.
Height, build, eye color.
Ah. [EXHALES SHARPLY]
Sunny is about a meter and a half tall.
- [SPEAKS JAPANESE]
- She is mostly white with big eyes.
- [IN JAPANESE] Good, okay.
- [CELL PHONE VIBRATES]
And how old is Sunny-san?
I am so sorry.
- [INHALES SHARPLY, SIGHS]
- What? Mixxy.
I'm so sorry.
[IN JAPANESE] Mixxy speaking.
- Are you kidding?
[SIGHS]
Wow. Can I report her missing too?
Hmm?
[IN JAPANESE] She is in the hall.
Thank you.
[IN JAPANESE] So.
You were telling me Sunny-san's age.
[IN JAPANESE] You don't know
how old your friend is?
I-I think she's the
latest ImaTech model.
I-I got her about a month ago.
- Sunny's a homebot?
- Yes. I told them when we came in here.
[DETECTIVE] Mmm.
[IN JAPANESE] I don't do homebot.
But this is not just about the homebot.
The yakuza broke into my house.
[STAMMERS] My son and husband
were on a flight to Hokkaido
that they probably crashed
to-to kill my husband.
[IN JAPANESE] Is your husband
in organized crime?
[IN JAPANESE] Then
why would they do that?
I mean, isn't that what happened
to your neck?
[IN JAPANESE] Eighty percent
of household accidents
happen in the bathroom.
just wait for my friend to come back,
because she can help me explain
[GROANS, SPEAKING JAPANESE]
It's very common, losing a homebot.
No need to feel embarrassed.
take a piss
without hurting himself.
[IN JAPANESE] Check the lost and found
at your local koban.
Homebots are the most common loss
after umbrellas.
[IN JAPANESE] You're welcome.
[MASCOT] Konnichiwa.
[MIXXY, TAKEMARO SPEAKING JAPANESE]
Please enjoy a manjū.
- [MIXXY CHUCKLES]
- [CHATTERING]
[TAKEMARO, IN JAPANESE]
Have a manjū, please. Very tasty.
- Jesus, Suzie.
[SUZIE] Everything okay?
Sounded pretty urgent.
Ichiro has diarrhea.
Who the fuck is Ichiro?
[TAKEMARO] Enjoy Kyoto.
The other bar assistant.
Uh, I guess he ate oysters at a mahjong
joint.
I mean, who does that, right?
But apparently it's pretty bad
and you know,
they're worried about dehydration and
Why are we talking about
your friend's bowels?
[TAKEMARO] So delicious!
Oh!
[STAMMERS] He's not really my friend.
- Mixxy!
- [TAKEMARO SPEAKS JAPANESE]
Ochiba is gonna be
in this "best bars of Japan" thingy
and it was supposed to be Ichiro helping
prep
the citrus for the photo shoot.
So you have to leave now?
[STAMMERS] It's a big opportunity.
Yeah. Wow. Mazel tov.
[TAKEMARO SPEAKS JAPANESE]
That I'm welcome to check
the lost and found.
[TAKEMARO, IN JAPANESE]
Please enjoy a manjū. So delicious!
Humpty Dumpty.
Jesus, what an arsehole.
Uh, so, what do you want to do then?
[SNIFFS]
You could hang at my place.
The bath is nice.
[TAKEMARO SPEAKS JAPANESE]
Go away!
That sounds great,
but I'm really not in the mood
to be murdered in your tub right now.
[TAKEMARO]
Please, take Kyoto manjū. For you!
[SUZIE] Okay, fine! Jesus Christ!
[GASPS]
What the fuck?
Oh, my God.
[TAKEMARO] If you do not comply
with instructions from here on,
you will receive a piece of Sunny
every hour until there is no more Sunny.
[EXHALES SHARPLY] Jesus.
[TAKEMARO LAUGHS] Yes.
Please be at the Mizonofuchi
vegetable stand in 15 minutes.
How lucky! You get so much Sunny!
Wait! Hold up a second! [PANTING]
Didn't you hear the orb?
I have to be there in 15 minutes
and it's a 20-minute walk at least.
Okay, but Suzie, come on.
This is insane. It's just a homebot.
No! She's actually not just
a homebot, okay?
Sunny has memories of Masa
and it's the only way I'm gonna find out
what the fuck happened to my family.
She's pretty much all I have right now.
[MIXXY SIGHS]
Why are you trying to stop me anyway?
Because these people just tried
to feed you a piece of robot.
Well, which one is it, Mixxy?
Should I do what the yakuza
want me to do, or shouldn't I?
- What are you saying?
- I don't [SIGHS]
Maybe Maybe Sunny's right.
Maybe you are slippery.
[EXHALES SHARPLY]
I'm just trying to keep
something bad from happening to you.
But you see, I don't care
what happens to me. Okay?
This is my problem.
So you can stop following me
and just go get your picture taken.
[SCOFFS]
[PANTS] Oh, fuck!
Do you have Sunny?
No, wait! No! [SHOUTS]
- [SHOUTS, STRAINS]
- [CAPTOR SPEAKS JAPANESE]
Get off Your hands
[CAPTOR SHOUTS IN JAPANESE]
- [SHOUTS]
- [SUZIE GROANS]
What the fuck? [GROANS]
[GROANS] Ah!
[GRUNTING]
- [GROANS]
- [CAPTOR SHOUTS]
- [SUZIE] Who the fuck are you?
- [CAPTOR GRUNTS]
- What do you want?
- [CAPTOR SHOUTS]
[SUZIE GRUNTS] Please!
[PANTS] Please! [GASPING]
- [CAPTOR SHOUTS]
- Fuck's sake. [PANTING]
[CAPTOR SHOUTS IN JAPANESE]
[PANTING]
[DOOR OPENS]
[GASPS]
[GROANS]
[HIMÉ] Hello, Suzie-san.
[IN JAPANESE] Nice to meet you.
Are you okay?
[EARPIECE BUZZES]
[AUTOMATED TRANSLATOR]
That sounded painful.
Where the fuck is Sunny?
[IN JAPANESE] Sunny is fine.
I love that name, by the way.
Who chose it?
You?
Or your husband?
Who's the optimist?
[HIMÉ SLURPS] Mmm.
[IN JAPANESE] So your husband then.
But,
seems like you might have
an optimistic side too,
showing up here like this.
[SLURPS]
[SIGHS]
Head rush.
[EXHALES DEEPLY, SIGHS]
would open Masa's computer.
[HIMÉ, IN JAPANESE]
Well, it's opened doors before.
That is why I had them call you.
But a far more
interesting question is
why did you come?
You must really love bots.
[IN JAPANESE] Really? [GASPS]
And yet you married a roboticist?
I know about four-circle-five.
[IN JAPANESE] April 5th?
[GASPS] My grandmother's birthday.
My family was on flight 405.
I know what you did.
I know you killed them.
And I'm not doing anything
until you tell me why.
[IN JAPANESE] I'd love to help you,
Suzie,
but all I know about
your family's flight
is what I saw on the news.
That it was a terrible accident.
[IN JAPANESE] And who is "they"?
Not the detective
you went to see this morning.
Perhaps you mean
the life insurance agency?
Though we all know those people
will do anything
to avoid paying out a claim.
Won't they?
Or,
is "they" just the homebot you hate,
but who sleeps in your bed?
at Masa's funeral?
[IN JAPANESE] Unlike you,
I was an admirer of his work.
He was a visionary.
Did it bother you?
His profession?
but I can't help you there, Himé,
because I didn't even know what Masa
did for a living
before you killed him.
[SPEAKS JAPANESE]
You didn't know his profession?
You were married for almost a decade,
no?
How on earth does that happen?
Where did you think he was going
every day?
Or did you just not care?
Because when you got here,
you were looking for residency?
An exotic adventure?
Or, were you just so lonely,
that you could fall in love
with someone you didn't even know?
I knew him.
I knew him.
[IN JAPANESE] I hope so.
Because you only have two tries
to guess his passcode.
- [TETSU] Himé.
- [SUZIE SIGHS]
[SPEAKING JAPANESE]
[SPEAKS JAPANESE]
- [EARPIECE BUZZES]
- [BOTH SIGH]
[TETSU SPEAKS JAPANESE]
your father
[HIMÉ SPEAKS JAPANESE]
[TETSU SPEAKS JAPANESE]
[REIJI CRUNCHES]
I am sorry for your loss.
[SIGHS]
[EARPIECE BUZZES]
Now. Get me in.
I am sorry for your loss.
but I've heard that one a lot lately.
So, who's gonna take over
for your dad now that he's passed?
[IN JAPANESE] Tell me what to type.
'Cause when I was at the sento,
they were talking about a woman
who wanted to be the next boss.
They kept calling her a busu.
What is that?
A busu. Am I a busu?
[SIGHS]
Probably. [SNIFFS]
But anyway [BREATHING SHAKILY]
one of the guys was saying
not to worry about the busu,
that he would take care of it.
Make sure it didn't happen.
I don't know what all that means,
but, Himé-san,
it sounds like maybe you
should be careful.
- [SUZIE GRUNTS]
- [BREATHES HEAVILY]
It's okay, Himé.
Losing someone you love
can make you go a little crazy.
Trust me. I get it.
[BREATHES HEAVILY]
But I'm not gonna help you
break into my husband's computer.
[HIMÉ] Hmm.
[IN JAPANESE] Get Mixxy!
[CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKING]
[CELL PHONE VIBRATES]
[VIBRATING CONTINUES]
- [EARPIECE BUZZES]
- [WHISPERS] Moshi, moshi. Suzie?
[TETSU, IN JAPANESE]
No. This isn't Suzie. But she says hi.
Suzie. Suzie, are you Are you there?
[SHUTTER CLICKING CONTINUES]
[DOORBELL JINGLES]
[BOSS, IN JAPANESE] Sorry.
We're not open.
Mmm. Okay.
We'll wait outside.
- [DOOR CLOSES]
- [DOORBELL JINGLES]
I will help you get whatever the fuck
dark manual shit you think is on there.
I-I want to. I just
Wouldn't the password just be,
like, random letters?
[IN JAPANESE] Proud men
don't let their work die with them.
Your husband would
have chosen a passcode
someone he trusted could guess.
Like a secret.
Well, he left plenty of those.
Tsk.
[IN JAPANESE] I do
not have time for this.
- [IN JAPANESE] Do you?
I am, I [SNIFFLES]
I have a processing issue
[BREATHES SHAKILY]
dyslexia,
I-I can't spell words out loud.
So, maybe it would help if I
If I could touch the keys?
[BREATHING SHAKILY]
- [TETSU SPEAKS JAPANESE]
- [HIMÉ GROANS] Get her friend.
[STAMMERS] My-My birthday,
or Zen's middle name.
No, no! I-I [PANTING]
[IN JAPANESE] Get your shit together.
Now.
Did you try his dad's name?
[IN JAPANESE] Are
you really this stupid?
His real dad.
[PANTING] I swear, that's gotta be it.
[PANTING CONTINUES]
- Fuck! Please.
- [TETSU, IN JAPANESE] Damnit!
- I want eyes on Jin.
- [REIJI GRUNTS]
[HIMÉ] You take care of her.
I will alert the men at the bar.
- [DRILL WHIRRING]
[TETSU] Hmm?
Fuck you. [BREATHING SHAKILY]
Fuck you.
[COMPUTER BEEPING]
- [HIMÉ, IN JAPANESE] It worked.
- [TETSU CHUCKLES]
- [REIJI SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY]
- [DOOR OPENS]
[DOOR CLOSES]
[CAPTOR] Get out. Move it.
You get your bot back.
- [SUZIE PANTS]
- [MIXXY] Suzie? Is that
[TIRES SQUEAL]
Oh, my God!
Are you okay? Did they hurt you?
- [SUZIE] Where's Sunny?
- I don't know.
[SUZIE] They said she'd be here.
Sunny?
Sunny.
Wake.
[PANTING]
[MIXXY PANTING] Hey, what happened?
I was terrified.
What was that call?
They pulled me into
a sweet potato truck.
What?
Tied me up. Blindfolded me.
[MIXXY GASPS]
They wanted me to help them
get into Masa's computer.
Did you do it?
They were gonna kill you.
Oh.
Wow.
That's, um
Thank you.
Do you think
they're gonna bring Sunny back?
[SIGHS] I I don't know.
- What's that supposed to mean?
- It means, "I don't know."
Are Are you saying this is my fault?
Will you stop?
That's not what I'm saying.
But no. I don't think
they're gonna bring Sunny back.
- [CELL PHONE VIBRATING]
- Oh, my God. It's the police.
Hai.
What?
[MIXXY WHISPERS] Sunny?
Okay.
I'll come. Right away.
What?
[SIGHS]
I know you don't give
a single shit about Sunny,
but just in case they bring her back,
can you just wait here for a while?
What? Why?
Where are you going?
I have to go to jail.
To bail out my mother-in-law.
[DISTANT LAUGHTER]
[GATE BUZZES]
[GUARD SHOUTS]
- I heard you stole an onigiri?
- Did you bring the shogi board?
Why would I bring a shogi board?
The ladies here have
a secret tournament.
They have invited me to play,
but to play my best,
I need my shogi board.
Noriko, you're in jail.
Ah. [CHUCKLES]
I was wondering where I was.
Thank you, Suzie-san.
Also, for finally answering my call.
They say they tried many times,
but I let them know how busy you are.
I didn't see your calls.
[DISTANT LAUGHTER]
The son of my friend, Yoko-san.
Can you believe we were
in primary school together?
Although I'm not surprised
to find her here.
She practically lived
in the principal's office.
Apparently, hasn't changed a bit.
Only now, she has terminal lung cancer.
Oh. Jesus, I'm sorry.
Don't be. Her son visits her every day.
[SIGHS]
That's nice that they're so close.
So, how does this work?
Do you have a
a lawyer I should call, or
Just the shogi board, please.
Do you not want me to help you
get out of here?
You never cared before where I was.
Why begin now?
[INHALES SHARPLY]
Did you get yourself
locked up on purpose?
[CHUCKLES] Of course not.
Why would I do that?
Fine. Suit yourself.
[SIGHS]
It's probably safer in here anyway.
What do you mean, "safer"?
[SIGHS]
- Never mind. Enjoy your new friends.
- [GATE BUZZES]
[ROMANTIC MUSIC PLAYING]
[KNOCKING]
- Stop music.
- [SONG ENDS]
Suzie?
[SHUFFLING]
Oh, no. [BREATHING HEAVILY]
[IN JAPANESE] Call Suzie.
Suzie Sakamoto
[SIGHS]
OTAGI NENBUTSU-JI TEMPLE. NOW.
[BREATHING HEAVILY]
[PANTING]
- [BUSH RUSTLES]
- [IN JAPANESE] I'll cut you!
[CROWS CAWING]
Hello? Mixxy?
Sunny?
[SIGHS]
Cool.
[SIGHS]
Does anyone wanna play shogi?
[MIXXY] Suzie! Suzie, are you there?
- [SUZIE] Yeah.
- I found her.
[SUZIE] Oh, my God.
[BREATHING HEAVILY] Sunny. Sunny, wake.
- What's wrong with her?
- I don't know.
What's going on?
No! No! [GASPING]
Sunny. Sunny, wake! Sunny.
