A Couple of Cuckoos (2022) s01e22 Episode Script
I'll be with you when you meet him.
1
What kind of sister is
Sachi-san to you, Umino-kun?
What kind?
A sister's a sister.
She's part of my family.
Oh.
She's a bit odd, though, isn't she?
Yeah, sort of.
She's not stupid, but she's hard to teach.
She's stubborn.
I guess you wouldn't want to tutor her, huh?
I'll turn her down for you.
That's not it.
It's just that she seems
to be in love with you.
What do you mean, I have feelings for Onii?!
Why would you say something like that to him?
It just kinda came up, you know?
Do you not?
I-I don't.
This isn't what we promised, is it?
Didn't you say
I don't think that's good.
Hm?
Did I give you the wrong idea?
Sorry.
I told you I'm engaged, too, remember?
So I only see Umino-kun as a rival.
That's why I trusted you, Hiro-san.
But that's not true anymore, is it?
There's no such thing as a relationship
that stays the same forever.
That goes for you, too, doesn't it?
Might you be prepared to marry Nagi-kun?
See me, Pacific Ocean!
I'm conversing with the great outdoors.
This is awesome!
I'm more united with nature than ever before!
Outdoor baths are the best.
Oh, I didn't realize you were here, Nagi-kun.
I thought there was no one else around.
Amano-san?!
Why
Didn't you take a bath earlier?
Not yet.
It took longer than I thought
to tidy up my stuff.
Why are you getting in?!
I'm in here right now!
I don't see why that's a problem.
No, no, it's a very big problem!
It's way too unwholesome for a high school
guy and girl to take a bath together!
What are you freaking out about?
She got in!
It's just a bath. What's the big deal?
We're engaged, anyway.
She's out of her mind.
Well, if you say so, Amano-san
Fine, I guess.
I love outdoor baths.
You can see the lighthouse from here.
Come over here, Nagi-kun.
What are you—
Is Amano-san coming on to me?
Huh?
Since when has that been our relationship?
Although, I guess it's okay
if I get close to her, right?
Wait, no, it's not!
If Segawa-san sees us, it's over!
You're bathing together?
You scum.
Right, it's already over.
You know, though
I like these moments.
I've always wanted to do this.
I've always been by myself,
and I never had any friends.
I never thought I'd have a day like today.
I wish it could always be like this.
Has she been wanting to take
a bath with me that badly?
Shoot, I got water in my ear.
But I'm too
I can't!
I'm overheating!
Why are you naked?!
You're crazy!
You say that now?
You're the one who walked in on me.
You're naked, too, aren't you?
Why are you wearing a swimsuit?!
Of course I am!
It's an outdoor jacuzzi!
Is that what you're supposed to do?!
There are only two beds?
Yeah.
I should have noticed.
There are two bedrooms, but only double beds.
I really wish you would
have checked on that first.
Which means someone has to
sleep next to Umino-kun?
Let's do this, then.
Onii sleeps in the living room.
I refuse.
Why?
I saw it.
Saw what?
A spider!
An organism with six-centimeter-long
legs and a gray body
and an unpredictable direction of travel!
What if that thing crawls into
my ear while I'm sleeping?
I'd rather die than spend a night
with that hideous creature!
This again?
So die, then.
I could take on a spider.
Okay, fine.
I'll stay in the living room, awake.
I have a good idea.
Let's draw straws.
Straws?
Here.
Pick one.
So this is the hot spring
that's connected to the room?
Ground-up rock salt?
Oh, this is what they call bath salts!
What kind of shower is this?!
It's like rain is gently falling on me!
Hey, come check this out.
It's awesome.
This sucks.
Why do I have to sleep
next to you on a vacation?
That's my line.
Here I am, sharing a roof
with Segawa-san, and
Shut up! Creep!
You're the one who drew
the same number I did!
It's your fault for drawing that number!
You're banned from coming
on my side of this towel.
Is that really necessary?
We slept with just a curtain between us for—
I said you're banned!
My territory's way too small!
Okay, what's next?
I don't think I can hold this
Right Hand
Right hand red.
I can't!
I lose.
You have such a strong core, Hiro-chan.
Not really.
You do. Like, structurally.
Why is this game at my
vacation house, though?
Wait, did Dad
I can't do it , sir!
That was some good exercise before bed.
Okay, next
We aren't sleeping?
Wow, bubbles everywhere.
I could never do this at home.
I wouldn't do it by myself, either.
Bubbly Bathtime
Why is there bubble bath mix here, though?
Did Dad do this, too?!
Sir
Erika-chan.
What do you think?
Hiro-chan?!
Don't you think that's too much?
I'm the bubble monster.
Aren't I scary?
You should be a bubble
monster, too, Erika-chan.
I'll pass.
Don't say that.
Come on!
Do it like this!
And posted.
I'm your first upvote.
Don't. You're embarrassing me.
You know
I still can't believe it.
I'm hanging out with the famous Erika-chan.
Don't start that now.
I'm really not.
You ought to know.
You're the most famous
high schooler right now.
I can't believe it, either.
I'm having fun and chatting with
my friends so late at night.
I thought I was going to grow
up never getting to do that.
So it's because you met Umino-kun, huh?
Nagi-kun has nothing to do with it.
We're just engaged because
our parents said so.
We haven't accepted it.
Yeah?
What about you, Hiro-chan?
What's the person you're engaged to like?
I don't know.
I've never even met him.
Really?!
Yeah.
I'm not interested in my engagement, either.
So we're the same, then.
Hey, Erika-chan
Just to make sure
Since you say you're not interested
Can I have Umino-kun?
You like Nagi-kun?!
She's out cold!
Hot springs are awesome.
I stayed in too long.
I hope Sachi isn't angry.
You took too long!
The bath's free.
Wait, why am I so self-conscious?
I've always been in my underwear
after baths back at home.
Hey, Sachi.
She's sleeping!
I shouldn't have bothered
trying to be courteous.
There's no space.
Damn it.
Why can't I sleep?
I ended up getting no sleep.
Amano-san?
You're up early for once.
I remember now.
That's definitely it.
The game and the bubble bath mix
We're taking it? Where?
To our vacation home.
I was here with Onii-chan.
I knew it.
Look at this pillar.
Sosuke 10 yrs
"Sosuke"?
I remember now.
When I was little, my family and I used
to go to our vacation homes every summer.
How did I forget that?
Sosuke 10 yrs
But I was definitely here with him.
Erika 7 yrs
The box is new.
The bath mix is recent, too.
There might be more hints
to finding Sosuke here.
I'll go wake up Sachi.
Let's get Segawa-san to help, too.
Right away.
O-Okay.
I never knew you had an
older brother, Erika-chan.
Oh, I guess that makes him
Umino-kun's older brother, too.
Not that it bothers me much.
I see.
You know, though
I bet you'd be an adorable younger brother.
Me?
Segawa-san's younger brother?
Onee-chan, I got 100% again.
Good for you, Nagi!
Onee-chan's going to give
you a good pampering.
Holy crap!
Wait, I can't.
I can't go out with her!
What is he fantasizing about?
What do I do?!
Gross.
You're lucky you get to talk
about siblings, though.
I'm an only child, so I get
envious about that stuff.
It's really not that great.
You don't get anything to yourself.
Exactly.
And you get bullied.
You two get to say that?
It worked!
This takes me back.
We have this at home, too.
The four of us played together.
Sachi would take all the items.
Shut. Up.
Onii-chan would stomp on
me and make me fall, too.
Sachi did that to me, too.
Be quiet!
I beat the whole game.
All by myself.
Segawa-san!
I shall accompany you from now on!
Hang on.
This save data
It's from three days ago.
What does that mean?
We got here yesterday, didn't we?
That means someone was
here before us, right?
That can't be, though.
This is my family's vacation home,
and Mom and Dad don't play games at all.
So, then
Onii-chan?
Onii, where are you going?
Three days ago, right?
He might still be in town.
If he's still here, he'd be in an area where
there are tourist spots or restaurants.
Wait, Nagi-kun!
Don't look for him!
Amano-san?
Erika-chan went to stop him.
Yeah.
I wonder why.
I thought she wanted to see him.
You don't get it, huh?
You're still a child, after all.
What's that supposed to mean?
I think you'd know better than anyone
how Erika-chan feels right now.
I fell.
Don't look for him?
Why not?
Even if he isn't nearby, there might
be someone who's seen him.
He was definitely at the
vacation home, wasn't he?
You might finally get to meet him.
There must be a lot you want to ask him.
Isn't that why you've been working
so hard on your social media?
Yeah. That's right.
But
But now I'm scared.
Now that I'm about to meet the
person I've always wanted to meet,
I can't decide how I should feel.
I'm pathetic, aren't I?
Anyway, that's where I'm at.
Let's go back.
Why are you afraid?
I'll be with you when you meet him.
Let's go.
In the end, we didn't find anyone who's seen him.
I guess it was never going to be easy.
Why are you so invested in this?
Why?
He's my brother, too.
And I promised.
I see.
You're right.
Maybe I won't be scared if you're with me.
You can come with me, if you must.
What? Why are you being so condescending?
I'm not at all.
You totally are!
Nah.
I was the one trying so hard
this whole time, though!
What kind of sister is
Sachi-san to you, Umino-kun?
What kind?
A sister's a sister.
She's part of my family.
