Mission: Yozakura Family (2024) s01e10 Episode Script

1
HINAGIKU
You guys, good job on the mission.
And now
-let the Hinagiku Hot Pot begin!
-[gunshots firing]
Mission accomplished! Casualties, zero!
You did great, Taiyo!
Go on. Eat your fill!
Mmm. [chuckles]
Wh-What's this?
It's a Hinagiku Hot Pot.
[Sui] It's an event the chief throws
to thank her subordinates
with various foods that she's
gathered with her bare hands.
[Rin] What should we start with?
[Taiyo] Her bare hands?
Seems like someone I didn't even invite
weaseled his way in.
I won't let you take issue
with my chaperoning Mutsumi.
Get lost, sister-lover.
I'll be happy to leave,
but I'll be taking this specially brewed
Yozakura Blizzard sake with me.
[Rin] I'll make an exception
this one time.
I will slice them into bite-sized morsels.
Please step back.
Narcissus-style Sword Skill
[Sui] Peony.
Looks about ready.
Here, Mutsumi.
Thank you, Taiyo!
[gags]
-[thuds]
-Taiyo?
Who gave you the right to portion out food
for Mutsumi? Try again in 1,000 years!
All right, Mutsumi,
here's Big Bro's ultimate selection
Stop being a meddlesome in-law!
[Mutsumi sighs]
Are you that eager to become part
of that stew, Rin Fudo?
[upbeat music playing]
[Mutsumi and Taiyo groaning]
There you go again! Just stop it, already!
I think the meat's just about ready.
Don't jump the gun, Oga!
[groans]
-[thuds]
-They got him with a fishcake?
[grunting]
The battle's so intense,
we can't get near the hot pot.
At this rate, we'll never get to eat!
If the attacks aren't meant for us,
dodging them is child's play.
[Sui] Picking Flowers.
A variation on Walking on Flowers.
Wow! Thank you, Sui!
Hey, thanks.
Walking on Flowers
will warp an amateur's bones.
[Sui] Carelessly imitating it
will wreck your body.
Build up your energy,
and keep plugging away at it.
Sui
[Taiyo shouts] God, that's hot!
Never let your guard down.
The pot is a battlefield.
[Taiyo screaming, groaning]
[opening theme song playing]
MISSION: YOZAKURA FAMILY
[snoring]
PLAN 10
THE YOZAKURA FAMILY MAID / AFFAIR
I'm going to use the facilities.
It's in the back on the left.
[Mutsumi] Rin and Oga, you wake up, too!
[Oga] I can't eat any more.
[Kurogao] I'll tell you all
that I know about your family.
[gulps]
This contains
information about my family.
Young man in the throes of anxiety
[Taiyo] Whoa!
Ohh! Ahh!
Are you okay?
You're looking really pale.
[Taiyo] Mostly due to
what you just did, I think.
Is that the thing containing
some kind of information on your family?
Aren't you going to open it?
-[sentimental music playing]
-I'm afraid.
I feel like if I open it,
everything's going to change.
When I stopped Kurogao,
my body sprang into action right away.
But for a split second,
another thought crossed my mind.
If the person who took my family from me
was right before my eyes,
I might have done the same thing.
A split second?
No, I'm just trying to downplay it.
After all that talk
about not letting anyone die,
in that moment, I was relating to someone
who wanted to kill someone else.
[Taiyo] If
when I open this box,
I find out something about my family,
I might
I might end up being just like him.
Oh
[chuckles sheepishly]
Oh, my! How embarrassing!
M-M-M-M-Mutsumi?
What's gotten into you?
Oh, I just thought
we were having that kind of moment.
What's that supposed to mean?
But now you get it, don't you?
Uh
No matter what kind of surprises
come your way,
you'll always be the same you, Taiyo.
And even if you do change,
I'll always be right here by your side.
Thanks, Mutsumi.
-[Mutsumi] Hey.
-Huh?
What's wrong?
Look what your reaction did to the box.
A marble?
[Kyoichiro] It uses a method
of recording optic data
by arranging air bubbles with a laser.
Though there are few options,
it's possible to extract the data.
Why don't we record your last words, too?
[screaming] I'm a dead man!
Don't lose your head
over a little peck, sister-lover.
Both of you, run.
[screaming] I'll kill you all!
That sure was tasty, huh?
Yeah.
But I'm so wiped.
My whole body feels heavy.
Wait.
What are you doing, Ayaka?
[Taiyo] Please get off me.
[Ayaka] I can't.
I'm recharging you, Master Taiyo.
[Taiyo] Recharging?
Hang on, what are you doing here
in the first place?
I'm here to protect you and Lady Mutsumi
from assassins, of course!
[Taiyo] What are you talking about?
We've asked her to come
work for us on a live-in basis.
What? Live-in?
The traditional Yozakura maid costume
looks so good on you!
Now, let me teach you
how to brew delicious tea.
Yes, ma'am!
[Ayaka] As a spy,
of course I have assassination skills.
But thanks to my undercover missions,
I'm also well-versed in housekeeping!
Hold up. Is it really okay
to let an outside spy live here?
[Mutsumi] Hmm
I thought it would be okay,
-since it's Ayaka.
-[Taiyo] You've got to be kidding me!
Needless to say, you infiltrating
Kuroyuri's, that is, Kurogao's office,
and, after a fierce battle,
rescuing the deputy prime minister
and obtaining an optical drive
I'm aware of it all!
And this optical drive
that you retrieved
Oh [grunts]
Huh?
Not only is it old,
it's also a little damaged.
It's going to take some time
to analyze it.
When did you tell her about it?
I'm a spy, after all.
I contacted her in advance.
Needless to say, I also know
that your bounty has shot up!
Congratulations!
[Taiyo] Not feeling it!
All kinds of violence and hostile intent
are heading your way, Master Taiyo!
-To burn, gouge, crush, and twist you.
-[screaming]
It's only a matter of time before
you're reduced to a hunk of flesh!
[Taiyo] Don't get aroused
by my manner of death!
If you hope to preserve your wedded bliss,
you need to protect yourself.
And so
in order to boost
your anti-assassin skills,
I'm going to assassinate you
on a regular basis.
[Ayaka] After all, I am a spy!
A-Are you really sure about this, Mutsumi,
having Ayaka in the house?
Well, since it's for your own good, Taiyo.
[Taiyo whining] What?
MISSION: YOZAKURA FAMILY
I'm wiped out again today.
Thank you for your hard work.
Big Bro Kyoichiro's out of tea leaves?
Too bad. They're the best pick-me-up.
I'll go with Nanao's blend of tea.
[Taiyo yawns, sighs]
I'm going to take a bath and hit the sack.
You don't want your tea?
Thanks.
I'll have it later.
[sighs]
I see.
Tea, huh?
Don't ever let your guard down, especially
when you're vulnerable in the bath!
[screaming] There she is! [thuds]
Stop that snapping!
Now, then, protect yourself,
Master Taiyo!
[gasps] Whoa! That was close!
[steaming]
[grunts]
-[beeping]
-[crackling]
Uh? [groans]
The electric bath trap's been activated!
[Taiyo] I'll save you now!
You mustn't. If you get electrocuted,
you won't be able to move.
I don't want to drag you
into this, Master Taiyo.
Please make a run for it!
I could never do that
[Taiyo] Wait, the main power source
is in the wall, right?
No way! Master Taiyo!
[straining]
[breathing heavily]
[exhales]
Nothing wrong with training, but that's
as reckless as you should get, okay?
[Ayaka] Master Taiyo
[Kyoichiro] Despite having Mutsumi
as your wife,
you would invite another woman into
the house and frolic with her while naked?
Huh? Big Bro Kyo
-ichiro [gasps]
-[Ayaka exclaims]
[Taiyo] I-It's not what you
[Kyoichiro] By the way,
this is a torture device made
by the Yozakuras during the Edo period,
Stomach Splitter.
Wouldn't you like to experience
how it's used,
Taiyo Asano?
[Taiyo screaming]
You don't have to run!
-[laughing]
-Master Taiyo!
-At least let me put on my underwear.
-[Kyoichiro laughs]
Master Taiyo! Master Taiyo!
Looks like Ayaka's
part of the Yozakura family already.
[Taiyo screams]
Let's see.
Today's missions are to make contact
and then go to the location
Taiyo!
-You forgot your phone! Oh.
-[cell phone vibrating]
KAORU
SLIDE TO ANSWER
-Someone named Kaoru
-[Taiyo grunts]
You don't need to get that?
Oh, it's fine, just fine.
I'll be going now!
-[footsteps receding]
-[door opens]
Signs of cheating
[gasps loudly]
Don't startle me like that!
Despite having someone like you,
Lady Mutsumi
[crying] Master Taiyo, why?
What are you talking about?
I'm sure he's busy with his missions.
But
he showers before
coming home in the morning.
He turns off his phone,
concealing his location.
He goes off on his own
for unknown reasons.
Then escapes!
Signs of cheating!
Oh, Ayaka
[birds chirping]
[sighs contentedly]
Such a great day for a walk, isn't it?
[yawns]
Taiyo, you know how you've
been running around like crazy lately?
I heard about it from Ayaka, too.
I-It's nothing.
So I'm glad I get to spend
some quality time with you!
Goliath sure looks happy, too.
So you're in charge of walking him, huh?
Because Goliath refuses to go on walks
with anyone but the head.
Refuses?
[Mutsumi] Goliath's a wolf-dog,
a special breed that was produced
through repeated modifications
since the mid-Edo period.
[Taiyo] Huh?
[growls softly]
What?
Did he get bigger?
-He's an elite breed of guard dog
-[growls]
boasting a durable body and longevity.
According to the records,
he's been serving us since
my great-great-grandmother's generation.
[Mutsumi] He's unbelievably strong,
you see.
Want to hop on, too, Taiyo?
He can easily handle the two of us.
[Taiyo] Uh
Pardon me [gasps]
Oh.
[Goliath growling]
You sure are strict, Goliath!
Not even my husband can ride you.
Sorry, Taiyo!
[Taiyo] He's loyal to his mistress,
so that's a good thing.
[Mutsumi] Hmm
Okay, then, Taiyo,
take his leash, and follow along.
[Taiyo] Follow along? What do you mean?
[Mutsumi] Why
Goliath's walk, of course!
-What? [screams]
-[upbeat music playing]
[screaming continues]
Taiyo, are you all right?
[Taiyo] I-It's no biggie.
-[Goliath growling]
-Wow!
So huge!
He won't bite?!
-[kid 1] Wow!
-[kid 2 laughing]
Hi!
Mutsumi.
So cool!
[growls]
[gasps]
[kids whimpering, crying]
Th-Thank you, miss.
No, no. It's Goliath
you should thank [gasps]
[exhales] Is everyone okay?
[coughs]
How dare someone do that to my Taiyo!
-[growls]
-[Taiyo] Whoa, what
[Mutsumi] Goliath!
[sniffs]
Wh-Where's he going?
[Mutsumi] If we analyze the logs from
the detonator attached to the balloon
using Big Sis Shion's machine,
we can reverse-access the transmitter.
Ha! Well, well,
head of the Yozakura family!
Who knew that I'd see you alive?
[Mutsumi] A crude gas bomb.
A slipshod plan
affecting bystanders as well.
You're a third-rate assassin, I see.
Says the leader in name only!
My, how arrogant!
[Mutsumi] True, I'm just a figurehead
with no powers of my own.
HAPPY'S SEWER HIDEOU
But I won't let anyone
get away with hurting my family.
Always keep this in mind
the terror of antagonizing
the Yozakura family.
[shrieks]
[Mutsumi] Are you all right?
I'm telling you, it's no big deal.
Thanks.
[cell phone vibrates]
Crap! I've got to get back to the house!
What's wrong?
What?
Well, it's just
[hesitates]
I get it.
[Mutsumi] Goliath.
Take us back to the house, will you?
[growls]
-Whoa!
-[Mutsumi chuckles]
A-Are you sure about taking me, too?
[sighs] Thank goodness! I made it in time.
[Ayaka] Signs of cheating!
Ayaka! It's not what you think! [whimpers]
[Taiyo gasps]
Still making excuses?
That's
[Kyoichiro] Cheating?
Can't let that one go.
Evil must be subjected
to swift punishment.
Run, Taiyo!
[weapon whirring]
[woman] Please excuse us.
[Mutsumi] Who are you?
I am Momiji Akikaze, a member of Hinagiku.
I have come to deliver a package
to Master Taiyo.
Hinagiku?
Hey, we agreed on a secret handover
so no one would know.
No, I thought it would be better
for everyone to know.
I was advised not to let
any unfortunate misunderstandings occur.
Glad to see that we got here in time.
[Momiji] It's just like you said,
Grandfather Kaoru.
[gasps]
KAORU
SLIDE TO ANSWER
Grandfather Kaoru?
I am her grandfather, Kaoru Akikaze.
After several exchanges with Master Taiyo
for the last few days,
I was finally able to obtain this item.
[Kaoru] The rare tea leaves, Dark Sweet.
It's Mr. Kyoichiro's favorite tea.
-[Kyoichiro gulps]
-[gasp]
Big Bro Kyoichiro's out of tea leaves?
[Mutsumi] Too bad.
They're the best pick-me-up.
[Kaoru] Dark Sweet.
Because it's made of tea leaves that are
also the raw ingredients for a narcotic,
it's extremely hard to come by.
Even so, Master Taiyo told me
that he wished to procure it secretly
for Mr. Kyoichiro,
who always looks out for him,
to replenish his supply.
So that's what he was hiding
from Lady Mutsumi.
Because if Lady Mutsumi found out, then it
wouldn't escape Master Kyoichiro's notice.
Oh
Sorry, Mutsumi.
I guess I made you worry for nothing.
No
I'm sorry for making you
go to so much trouble.
This guy
did all that just for me?
Despite how much I loathe and despise you?
[strained] For my sake?
[laughs]
[thuds]
Please forgive me for doubting your love!
I will atone with my life!
It's okay! No need for that!
You'd better apologize, too, Big Bro.
I adamantly refuse.
I would rather die
than apologize to that guy!
Goliath, sit on Big Bro!
[Goliath growls]
[Kyoichiro, in muffled voice]
Not apologizing, even if it kills me!
-Delicious!
-Ah
[screams] Like hell, I'll apologize!
