2: Look, see?!
3: What, I don't see anything!
4: Mom!
5: He's acting just like I told you, right?!

7)
1: How would you know what Grandma looks like, Sou?!
2: She lives out in the country, and you've never even met her once!
3: It's just like the picture I saw.
4: She's smiling and looks happy.
5: And she's wearing a red flower-print kimono.
6: A red kimono!
7: See, he is lying. There's no way Grandma would be wearing a red flower-print kimono.
8: Ahh, mom!

8)
1: Mom!!
2: Wh-what's wrong?!
3: Get a hold of yourself!
4: B...
5: But...
6: Grandma loved that red flower-print singlet!!

9)
1: Despite how old she got, she always wore it underneath her kimono!
2: But that was a secret that only she and I knew!
3: Ehhh?!
4: Umm...
5: If you don't mind, I'll be leaving now.
6: Please try and keep your child from wandering too far, ma'am.
7: If you'll excuse me.

1: It's time for the morning news.
2: Yesterday, Oomori Setsuko-san passed away.
3: Ehh?!
4: There it is!!

11)
1: The cause of her death was heart failure due to infirmity.
2: Oomori-san was a great actress who represented Japan,
3: after stepping off the silver screen, she never once showed her face to her fans again.
4: Additionally, there is no one who knows anything about her personal life after retirement, burning the woman's mystique stronger and stronger into our minds.
5: Now that Oomori Setsuko-san has left us, one can now say that the age of the great Japanese actress has truly come to an end.
6: Here is some footage of Oomori-san from her films.

12)
1: Hoh!! How beautiful!!
2: This kind of beauty just doesn't exist anymore.
3: Just watching it makes...
4: the tears start to flow.
5: You're right...
6: We respectfully pray for Oomori-san's peace in the afterlife.

13)
1: Continuing on with the news...
2: we will hear about the current trends of the stock market from Kabutochou...
3: Ahh, so they really didn't show what she looked like when she died.
4: Of course not. There's no way they could show such a thing on TV.
5: Yeah, I guess you're right.
6: But don't you think it's cruel?
7: Eh, what is?

14)
1: That such a beautiful woman turned into such a run-down old woman!!
2: She was the same generation as Takane Miyako and Yae Kusaka, right?
3: That's too tragic a thing to happen to only her, then!
4: She looked just like a worn-out shell or something!
5: Huh?!
6: That person...
7: It's Miyoko-san!!

15)
1: Sister, Miyoko-san's on TV!!
2: What?!
3: Look!!
4: This person is Miyoko-san!!
5: Ehh?!
6: Which one?! I don't see her anywhere?!
7: Look! Right here!!
8: Right behind this flashy person!!

16)
1: Hmph!! There you go, shouting out weird stuff again! This is the "Good Morning Show" that always comes on after the news!
2: There's no way such a serious person as Miyoko-san would be on TV like this!
3: How can you even say it's her, anyway?! The person in front is covering up so much that you can't even see her face!!
4: But I know it's her!!
5: Look at her clothes!
6: She wore these clothes when she went to Harajuku yesterday! I followed her all the way there!
7: Ehh?!
8: What'd you say?!
9: Trust me, I know it's her!
10: That's Miyoko-san!!

17)
1: But it can't be!!
2: Whatever the case, there's no way for us to be sure just from watching this!
3: Besides, there's no point to her being on TV if she's just hiding behind someone!!
sfx(2): waaah
4: Ahh, that girl stood up! She really wants to stand out!
5: Not just in fashion, but in her behavior too!
6: She finally sat down. There's no way we'll be able to see the person behind her at this rate!
7: Huh?!
