Aggretsuko (2018) s02e03 Episode Script
Zweifaches Moratorium
1 I've been doing a lot of thinking and I think I'm going to have to turn Shirota down.
What? But, why? I don't think we're very compatible.
You seemed to enjoy talking with him.
What is it about him you don't like? He's a Sagittarius.
We wouldn't get along.
His lock screen was dumb Retsuko, those aren't real problems.
You're just afraid of marriage.
That's not true! He wears white socks with suits and he has a Velcro wallet! He's oddly pleasant, his smile is too cute, he has a stable job and he'd probably treat me well! So you like him.
No, I don't! You're sure you want me to pass on that you're not interested? I can't guarantee that a better man will come along.
Are you sure? This is going to hurt Shirota's feelings.
Are you OK with that? Alright.
I've got nothing more to say.
I'm hanging up now.
What if we got him to wear black socks? It's not about the socks, Mooooooom! RAGE ACCOUNTING EXTERNAL NUMBER Hello, this is Anai! My mistake.
This is Anai from Chararyman Corp! I'm not used to answering calls, so kindly call again later! Hey Anai I think the way you answered was a little Oh, hold on a moment.
Please, go right ahead.
Never mind.
Is that any way to answer a call? Have you even been trying to train him? I'm sorry.
I told you to show him the ropes of the working world! If he stays as useless as he is now, you'll be the one answering for it! Retsuko, are you done yet? Oh, not quite.
So, we're going out for a drink with Anai.
Wanna come? Sorry, I've got plans, and work to finish.
Oh, alright See you! See you, Retsuko! Let's go, Anai! Yes, let's go! ANAI I've taken the liberty of setting a time limit for your reply.
What's Retsuko up to, anyway? Yoga, maybe? It's Thursday.
Oh, right.
Please reply by tomorrow morning.
Scary! I wish I was far away from here.
A night bus to Kyoto! A tour for warding off evil spirits! What's got into you? A night bus? Let's go now to someplace far away! But tomorrow is a workday.
But we just keep spinning our wheels in planning this trip! Let's just go somewhere! What happened at work? Please don't ask.
I don't even want to remember.
I'm not really feeling this anymore.
Feeling what? The bus tour.
It's too cheap for me anyway.
Should we call it off? What? Why are you changing your mind now? We're just not on the same page.
I want to go abroad.
How about a road trip? What do you think? We can go wherever we want! That's not a bad idea.
But I don't have a license.
Me neither.
But, Director Gori, you've got one, right? Yes, if you want to risk your life.
As a student, I crashed my parent's car into a rice field.
I haven't driven since then.
Forget it.
"Please reply by tomorrow morning.
" I don't think I said anything wrong.
I'm sorry if what I said was wrong.
I'm really sorry for the things I said.
I was wrong! NO BATTERY LET'S GET A LICENSE! You've come for a visit? Welcome home.
It's just another airbrushed photo.
Well, just a little bit.
Either way, I'm done with these marriage meetings.
Why? You're not busy.
-I'm very busy! -Doing what? I have work.
I'm training a new hire, and I have lots of other stuff going on! I don't have time! You're free on weekends.
-No, I'm not! -Why not? See? You've got time.
I'm still busy! Busy with what? My driver's license Huh? You're getting your license? You're going to driving school? You? Well, yeah I figured a license would be a good thing to have.
Well, good! Huh? Go get your license.
After all, your father has recently had arrhythmia and he's not very well.
It would be handy if you could drive should he be hospitalized.
It would be hard to get a license if you were married and had children.
So I'm all for you getting it now.
It would be a great help.
I'll cover half the cost.
You're getting your license? Are you buying a car? No way.
The cost of parking and maintenance in Tokyo is crazy.
My mom just told me to get my license.
But it's exciting to think about.
It's opened up a world of opportunity, huh? It's nice to start something new.
It helps me forget the bad stuff at work.
PLEASE REPLY BY TOMORROW MORNING.
Uh-oh! I totally forgot.
Hey, Retsuko! Oh no! This is really bad! Is Anai here yet? Beats me.
I haven't seen him.
Anai? I don't know him.
I haven't seen him today.
I see.
Is he sick or something? Don't tell me you've been bullying him! You always hear about women taking stuff out on juniors.
Well, I think he's doing fine.
Huh? How do you know? Because my phone has been ringing this whole time.
Progress update? ARCHIVE ROOM Sorry I couldn't get back to you.
Where are you now? It's too late.
Anai? Are you here? Where? I read your email, honestly! But you've got me all wrong I requested that you respond in writing, did I not? Yeah But it's better to talk directly-- Did I not? Yes.
You're out of time.
You personally attacked me, you abandoned your duties, and you violated the code of conduct.
I will be reporting everything to our superior.
You looked really nervous at the time, and I just wanted to help.
Huh? What do you mean? I gave you a chance to defend yourself.
But your email was scary-- I gave you a chance! Yeah I'll be recording all of our future interactions.
Why do you take everything in the worst possible way? To protect myself.
Why are you doing this? I'm exercising my rights.
What are you saying? Huh? You're just incompetent.
You're blaming others to cover up your own incompetence.
Go ahead.
Keep talking.
Make this even better for me.
You wanna record?! I dare you to do it, punk! You wanna fight?! You gonna catch these tiny hands! I know I shouldn't add any fuel to the fire But I'll say it to your face why you're never gonna go higher! Can't use a freakin' phone! Escalate that to Ton! If she told him that, it would be power harassment, for sure.
You understood what she said? I wonder if this type of employee is on the rise.
We had one, too.
He threw fits at the drop of a hat and kept calling us an abusive company.
What happened to him? He quit.
-Good for you.
-No, it isn't! I should have been better to him.
Better? How? By giving him some hope, maybe.
Those boys are weak.
That's why they're scared.
Of power harassment? No! They're probably afraid of becoming adults and joining society.
So they guard themselves.
An adult shouldn't act anxious in front of an anxious child.
We have to instill confidence in them.
Morning, Retsuko! You're early today.
I had things to do.
I'm as scared of becoming an adult as Anai is.
I'll apologize when he clocks in.
If we calmly talk it over, I'm sure he'll understand.
I wonder when he'll get here? Anai's absent today.
Something seems to have troubled him.
He sent me a fax about it.
Written Statement.
June 19, 2019.
Anai, Accounting.
Report concerning Retsuko's mistreatment of myself.
Congrats on your first power harassment complaint! We're not all that different.
I want to run far, far away.
DRIVING SCHOOL Are you enrolling? Getting a license now? As an adult? Changing jobs? Packing up to go back home? I want to go far away.
I see.
DRIVING SCHOOL Alright! Come on already, numbskull! How are you gonna graduate like this? Sorry.
He's getting really chewed out.
Now come and look at this! Argh! You dented the car! That's a load of paperwork for me to do! Give me a break! Not everyone here is younger than me.
