Dear Brother...
A golden bowl on the right hand.
A silver bowl on the left.
Never equal without the other
Those two bowls in each of us.
Those two invisible bowls.
The golden bowl, filled with happiness,
shines with a warm radiance.
The overflowing love I've felt since I met you
Couldn't possibly be held in the golden bowl.
A golden rapture,
a silver sadness
Let us lay down everything that has passed
So that only you may be held, so that only love may be held,
Let us empty those twin bowls.
Oh, she's here... Ms. Misonoo!
What are you doing here?
Hurry, hurry up!
How...
How could this be!
Episode 4 Organ
You are very late.
I thought I told you that the party starts at noon?
Yes, no, um...
Very well. Please have a seat, Ms. Misonoo.
Yes.
But... Lady Miya called yesterday... Then why...
We shall start with a few questions.
Yes.
Any hobbies? Are you in any kind of clubs?
Yes, my hobby is baking cakes.
...And about extracurricular activities...
I still haven't decided on that.
I'm in the flower arrangement club and horse riding club.
Flower arrangement club?
Then I'll go for the flower arrangement club too!
She smiled. Just now, the Lady Miya gave a faint smile.
Favourite writers?
What a relief... She doesn't look so offended now...
Yes! Saint-Exupery, famous for his "Le Petit Prince"
and Montgomery, famous for her "Anne of the Green Gables".
Le Petit Prince?
Anne of the Green Gables... How elementary.
What should I do... She thinks I'm childish! And uh... uh...
Sade! Sade is also my favourite!
Oh, Marquis de Sade?
Sade, of masochism and sadism?
How lovely. Which of his works do you find interesting?
Uh... well...
- Didn't she said Sade? - How embarrassing!
Is everything okay? We're waiting for your answer.
...I guess that's it then, Ms.Misonoo.
We'll notify the results next morning.
Thank you for your trouble.
I failed...
I'm disqualified...
No, you don't know yet.
No, there's no hope. I didn't even give a proper answer...
That's not true. That's just not true!
It's just... just being late to the party. Yes, that's the only problem.
What's wrong with you?
You definitely heard that punctuality is important to the Sorority...
But Lady Miya called yesterday...
She said the party's been postponed from 12 pm to 3 pm...
What?
I don't understand. She said that, so why...
Are you sure? Was it really Lady Miya who called?
Mom answered it.
Could it be that someone else...?
There's no mistake. She's the only person to do this kind of thing...
Misaki... Aya.
How I got home after that,
I don't remember very well.
That day should have been
a cake-baking day, together with Tomoko...
A very ordinary, and a little merry Sunday.
Dear Brother, is this really possible?
To think that there's really a person who would make prank call just to deceive someone else...
If this is true, it's a really scary thing...
Suppose... suppose I'm in her place,
There's no guarantee that I won't act like her...
Nanako, it's Tomoko. She's in front of the house.
I thought you would be home by now.
Hmm...a prank call?
She's too much, Misaki...
Nothing's so sure yet.
But Shinobu seems to be very sure.
I understand you feel this is unfair.
To be chosen as a Sorority member, it's a great thing.
The dream of every girl on earth. Even me...
Tomoko.
But I've given up from the very beginning.
I thought it was strange for me to be chosen.
Right?
Yeah. Right. I thought so.
Now, you don't need to suffer anymore.
Somehow I feel so free!
We've always enjoyed swinging since we were kids.
Yup!
- From now on, we'll always be together. - Yeah!
By the way, Tomoko, which club did you join?
Of course, the Cooking Club.
Cool! I'm going for that, too!
Flower arrangement... That's just not in me.
Then I'll get the application form from the club room tomorrow.
Great! I'll leave it to you!
Good morning, Ms. Shinobu.
What happened?
I'm in, I passed!
I got chosen as a Member!
Oh, congratulations!
Oh please, you're in it too!
What, don't tell me you haven't seen the announcement yet?
Hurry, hurry.
How strange.
There were 19 candidates,
and no matter how you look at it, those who failed,
they were definitely better than Ms. Misonoo.
Oh my, how pitiful, you dregs...
What?
One more time? "Dregs!"
Get lost, you're not in this.
You're the ones who should get lost!
I will never accept this.
I'm going to file a direct complaint to the princess!
What kind of dirty tricks did you play? You weren't even there at the party!
Now, how do you know that?
Should I tell you?
You were the fraud who impersonated Lady Miya with that phone call!
I don't know anything of the sort.
You are the dirty plotter!
That explains much about your unsuitability for the Sorority.
Whatever. This isn't over.
- Let's go, Ms. Misonoo. - Yes...
What a problematic sight.
For one single proud, vain person called "The Princess".
Freshman classmen's feelings are sacrificed each year.
How disagreeable.
Don't you think so?
Well, I don't think telling you this would make any difference.
Come on, cheer up.
Who's the tearful girl who was crying all over yesterday?
The truth is you wanted to get into the Sorority!
But it's still strange... This...
Why me...
Who cares about that.
It's decided. You're a member now.
I'm happy for you. We're together now, aren't we?
Yeah...
Tomoko!
Tomoko, wait...
Tomoko...
So you got in. Congrats. I didn't read the notice board so I didn't know.
Tomoko...
You look happy.
I don't know, whether I'm happy or not...
This, it's the application form for the Cooking Club.
You'll apply, won't you?
So you're going to join the Flower Arrangement Club after all.
Sorority Members are all there.
Tomoko!
Sorority or not, I'm still your friend.
Tomoko!
I'll wait for you after school, at the usual place.
Tomoko!
Tomoko...
Okay, very good.
The next is... Ms. Misonoo, please.
Nanako.
Yes!
Page 28, from the sixth line please.
Yes!
I can't hear you!
I can't hear you!
Speak louder, please!
Those jerks...
Please continue, Ms. Misonoo.
Ah, sure!
I can't hear you!
I still can't hear you!
I can't hear you!
I can't hear you!
We can't hear you!
We can't hear you! We can't hear you!
Hey, girls...!
We can't hear you! We can't hear you!
Shut up!
If you can't hear it, come here!
You'll hear her perfectly next to me!
Come, come, what are you waiting for?
You, violence is forbidden...!
Prince Kaoru...You're so wonderful.
You shouldn't mix sugar and yolk at the same time.
Do you understand? That's the secret.
Well then, let's separate the yolk from the white...
Please start.
Oh dear, oh dear...
Excuse me, don't you think this is too much of a feat?
Girls normally are good at these things.
So you're saying I'm not a girl?
Oh, you say that as if you were a girl!
Dang it...
Right, I'm not gonna give up...
Uh... I think I should do the eggs.
You have to group the common factors first for factorization.
Take for example x-4, think about it, first...
Ah, I smell cookies...
It's definitely Nanako's class.
Tomoko, Sorority or not, I'm still your friend!
Tomoko, Tomoko!
What was I thinking?
I knew it wasn't Nanako's fault but...
I should apologize after school. She'll forgive me for sure.
When you knead, do it from the outside to the inside, drawing circle.
For the second time, you have to let the steel cool off first.
My, how skillful... Very good, Ms.Misonoo.
Hmm, a woman by nature, Ms.Misonoo?
And I thought you gave up being a woman?
Whatever you say.
At least she makes some pretense to being feminine, I'll give her that.
It's not surprising Misonoo's good at cooking.
- Huh? Why? - Because she's female?
Oh my, didn't you know?
A long time ago her mother used to work at a bar near Joto University
as a hostess.
- What? Hostess? - At a bar?
And by chance there was a man who went there to drink,
a certain Professor Misonoo, who already had a wife and a son!
Wife and son?
Put it simply, her mother actually forced the first wife out.
- Wow! - Unbelievable...
You meet those kinds of girls everywhere.
What do you think you are doing? You daughter of a pornographer!
Shut up, daughter of a third-rate inquiry!
My father is a lawyer!
- Corrupt lawyer! - What did you say?
It's a lie!
Dad doesn't have a child It's a lie!
And dad and mom met
after dad was divorced.
Mom said so.
Mom... Mom isn't someone who would lie.
Sometimes, you have to endure the lies people spread about you.
You don't understand!
No one truly understands the other...
No one can understand other people really hold in their hearts.
But still, someone who cares can try to, anyway.
- Thank you for your troubles. - Please sign here.
My, it's for Nanako.
I wonder who sent it.
Henmi!
Henmi Takehiko...
How... Why? For what?
Will Tomoko wait for me?
Ms. Misonoo, let's go home together.
I'm Sorry. Tomoko's waiting for me.
I see...
Sorry...
I saw Tomoko just now. She was heading to the music room.
Really? Thanks.
Pass!
Run!
This way!
Ah, too late...
Come, right over here.
There's no use waiting for Nanako.
She said she can't go home with you.
A Sorority Member is involved with a lot of other societies.
Don't you understand? She's not a normal student anymore.
She said, she can't associate with you anymore.
From now on?
I'm just delivering her message for you.
I want to hear this from Nanako herself. Where is she now?
You're one stubborn girl... If you're her friend, try to understand.
What?
Nanako didn't want to hurt you,
That's why she asked me to talk to you instead.
Who's hurt? Don't take me for a fool!
You can tell Nanako, this is good-bye.
In the end, I couldn't go home with Tomoko that day.
I wonder if Tomoko still has not forgiven me.
But I don't want to think about it.
What can't be done today, can be done tomorrow...
If not tomorrow, then the day after...
I'm going to wait at the usual place for her.
Because, Tomoko and I have always been friends.
More than that,
More than that, dear Brother,
About mom,
About mom, dad, and me
and about how dad has another child other than me
I need to hear it from mom.
What does Henmi Takehiko have to do with Nanako?
Since when...?
I'm home!
Welcome back.
Uh... Mom?
Yes?
I got selected into the Sorority.
My, congratulations. How nice.
Here, a package for you.
Brother!
I dreamt an amazing dream last Sunday
But when it saw you,
Surprised, the dream just flew away
I would never lose
So just for you
I have rushed and tried so hard
This feeling of love, staying in my heart
bewildered by the mischievous fairies' game
dances to and fro, always capricious
