The Secret Of Nami Sushi
Transcript
00:00:00My name is Grace. My mom and I have lived in a Japanese house on a remote island for
00:00:10as long as I can remember. Mrs. Morris, welcome. Well Mrs. Morris, you're one of our most loyal
00:00:23customers for our Halloween special. I have a fresh new catch seat just for you. Excited, raw, and powerful.
00:00:33I'll make sure that I savor everybody's.
00:00:37Mom?
00:00:39Mrs. Marker, if you see me.
00:00:47That's my mom, Simone, the most beautiful woman around.
00:00:52She runs a restaurant called Nami Sushi, but I'm not allowed inside.
00:00:58For as long as I can remember, I've only ever seen female customers. Rich women dressed to
00:01:04the nines, travel across the world for whatever my mom has to offer.
00:01:13Mom, what's inside? I want to take a look.
00:01:17I've told you many times, Nami Sushi is off limits to you. Leave. Now.
00:01:29I've never been inside, but everyone keeps whispering about how my mom's business is just a front
00:01:35person. I want to take a look for. You like our new offerings, Mrs. Morris? Use your tongue. I want you to taste
00:01:41everything.
00:01:43Who's there?
00:01:56Grace!
00:01:58How many times do you have to tell me? Stay out of the restaurant.
00:02:04Why is that so hard for you? Why can't you tell me what's inside? It's just a regular sushi
00:02:10restaurant and nothing more. Then why can't I go inside? Do you know what everyone says you're
00:02:16serving in there? No. And you believe them over your own mother?
00:02:25Simone, you told me this place was private. My apologies, Mrs. Morris. This is my daughter.
00:02:35I'll make sure this never happens again. I can waive your bill for today.
00:02:39Oh, please don't insult me. I can pay.
00:02:42Of course, Mrs. Morris. Your happiness is my priority.
00:02:46What about I serve you with a friend or a friend the next time you come in? You'll be purring from here to
00:02:57trouble. That's more like it.
00:03:11What cost Mrs. Morris that much? And in cash?
00:03:15You still won't admit there's something shady going on in there.
00:03:19Wealthy women like Mrs. Morris will pay a fortune for luxury ingredients and even more for privacy.
00:03:28Grace, you don't know how hard it is for a single mother to run a business.
00:03:35People talk. They see what they want to see.
00:03:40They don't think a beautiful woman could make an honest living.
00:03:49I don't want you anywhere near the restaurant again.
00:03:51I've still got questions. What did Mrs. Morris eat? Why did she leave so pleased or make all those noises?
00:04:03You heard us.
00:04:04Did you see anything?
00:04:06Yeah. I saw everything. Mrs. Morris, she was half naked. What kind of sushi restaurant has guests eating topless?
00:04:17Thank God. Grace hasn't seen the secret of Nami's sushi yet.
00:04:21Listen, Grace. No matter what you saw, you have to forget it. And don't speak of this to anyone.
00:04:30Why not? Mom, all my life you've been hiding things from me. All I want to know is the truth.
00:04:37I know there's more going on. I'm sorry, sweetie. It's just not the right time.
00:04:45You don't get it. You don't know what your sushi shop has put me through.
00:04:52Sweetie, how about this? When you're older and you bring a boyfriend to me, I'll let you
00:04:59eat some Nami's sushi, do you? But why do I have to have a boyfriend? You'll understand.
00:05:08I need to see it for myself. The truth of the sushi shop.
00:05:22Getting a boyfriend? No chance in hell.
00:05:25Huh. Bro, check it out. Slut's daughter's here for school. Oh, her? Rumor is her mom sees over a dozen
00:05:33Johns a night. It's crazy. Poor girl. She hasn't got a daddy because she doesn't know which one it'd be.
00:05:39I heard she lives right next to her mom's shop. You'd think they ever, you know, team up.
00:05:44Don't let them get to you, Grace. Reacting will only fuel their rumors.
00:05:49Do you see her face? It's hilarious. OMG, I totally should have recorded it. It's the perfect Halloween thing.
00:06:09Halloween thing. My mom's done nothing wrong. Stop this. Is this a joke to you?
00:06:15Are you shouting at me, loser? Girls? Let's get her. What? What are you doing? We're at school.
00:06:23Isn't it obvious? We are going to teach you a lesson.
00:06:34Looks like the freak's in real trouble. She's as good as dead.
00:06:38Should we do something? As in start prepping her eulogy?
00:06:41Oh, that's a good one.
00:06:45Let go? Yeah. No.
00:06:49Your mommy's nothing but a whore. We thought we'd get you something nice. Like this.
00:06:55No way. It's next level. Damn, girl. That's legendary.
00:07:02Please let me go. Did your mommy teach you how to use these?
00:07:06Say thank you for the thoughtful guests, sweetie.
00:07:09I bet you both threw a lot of these at home. Heard you and your mommy share everything.
00:07:20Get these. It's on us.
00:07:22Do this again.
00:07:37My mom's not a whore.
00:07:44You're dead.
00:07:50You asked for this.
00:08:02She's not a whore.
00:08:03Hey!
00:08:05That's enough.
00:08:06Seriously, Hunter? Why aren't you on my side?
00:08:18Come on, bro. Don't ruin our fun.
00:08:20I said that's enough.
00:08:34I'll get you to the chalice.
00:08:36Hunter? He's one of the bullies. Why is he helping me?
00:08:39Bro, check it out. Slut's daughter's here from school.
00:08:48Oh, her? Rumor is her mom sees over a dozen Johns a night.
00:08:51You'll like our new offerings, Mrs. Morris. Use your tongue. I want you to taste everything.
00:09:00Mom, do you have any idea what your stupid sushi shop is doing to me?
00:09:04Mom, do you have any idea?
00:09:16I've got an idea.
00:09:20Mom, do you have any idea?
00:09:36What? Where'd my clothes go?
00:09:38Let's go.
00:10:08Guess she takes after her poor mother, huh?
00:10:14Stop that!
00:10:15Don't take pictures!
00:10:16Stop!
00:10:17Oh my gosh, look.
00:10:19That's so embarrassing.
00:10:22Ew.
00:10:23Is she on her period?
00:10:24That's so gross.
00:10:25Where's her clothes?
00:10:27She's so shameless.
00:10:29I didn't want to.
00:10:31Someone took my clothes and pad.
00:10:34Stop recording!
00:10:38A whore!
00:10:39Just like your mommy.
00:10:40This is the price for trying to fight back, bitch!
00:10:43Stop!
00:10:44Oh!
00:10:45Seriously, bro?
00:10:46Punch her!

00:25:45Open up!
00:25:46Open the door!
00:25:47Grace!
00:25:49Mom?
00:25:52Who's in the sushi parlor?
00:25:53I thought we closed that night.
00:25:54Uh, I got a fresh shipment of fish.
00:25:58Mrs. Morris didn't want to wait till morning, so she stopped by.
00:26:01Where's Jack?
00:26:02How should I know?
00:26:02Is he not with you?
00:26:03No, I can't find him.
00:26:05Do you think he's in the restaurant?
00:26:06No, don't be ridiculous.
00:26:09He's probably just like the first boy you brought home.
00:26:11Got cold feet and bailed.
00:26:13No way.
00:26:14Jack wouldn't abandon me.
00:26:15I lied.
00:26:19Grace, I'm dumping you.
00:26:20I'm not into you.
00:26:21We're over.
00:26:22Lose my number.
00:26:23What?
00:26:24He's jumping me over text?
00:26:26Seriously?
00:26:27Listen, Grace.
00:26:28Boys like that, they're not worth your time.
00:26:31So be a good girl.
00:26:33Come back with mommy.
00:26:37That's Jack's ringtone.
00:26:38I know he's in there.
00:26:40No, he's not.
00:26:41Mom, why won't you let me in?
00:26:43What are you hiding in the sushi shop?
00:26:46You said I had to bring a boyfriend home, so I did.
00:26:50You need to keep your promise.
00:26:52Please.
00:26:53You've got to let me check if Jack's in there.
00:26:57And I need to know the secret of your sushi shop.
00:27:01Fine.
00:27:02You're an adult now.
00:27:04I can't keep everything from you anymore.
00:27:06You want the truth?
00:27:09Follow me.
00:27:13This is what I've been hiding inside Nami Sushi for the last 10 years.
00:27:21What is that?
00:27:42What is that?
00:27:45You said you wanted to see what was inside.
00:27:47Mom, how could you keep such a huge fish here?
00:27:52It stinks.
00:27:54Nami Sushi provides their patrons with only the precious selections.
00:28:00Seems one escaped.
00:28:01It happens from time to time.
00:28:03But it's huge.
00:28:05And alive.
00:28:07What kind of business are you even running?
00:28:10If you're that curious, go see for yourself.
00:28:13I guess you're not as brave as you thought.
00:28:19If you're not coming in, then get out of the way.
00:28:22You're scaring off my customers.
00:28:25Come on.
00:28:27No.
00:28:27Get off my customers.
00:28:30Wait, Mom.
00:28:31I think Jack's in there.
00:28:32I can hear his ringtone.
00:28:34Ringtone?
00:28:34I didn't hear anything.
00:28:38Wait, Mom.
00:28:42Oh, Mrs. Morris.
00:28:44You seem to be enjoying our newest hot ticket menu item.
00:28:47I told you, I always give you first bake.
00:28:50I want you to feel it in your bones.
00:28:54Jack, this is a woman's paradise.
00:28:58I can't just leave.
00:29:01I have to find out what's in that sushi shop.
00:29:23Not another step.
00:29:24If you want to come in, you have to follow house rules.
00:29:31Strip.
00:29:32What?
00:29:33Why do I have to strip for sushi?
00:29:37Silly girl.
00:29:39Clothes off.
00:29:40Now.
00:29:42I'm your daughter.
00:29:44Not one of your customers.
00:29:45Those are the rules, Grace.
00:29:47Even I'm not allowed to break them.
00:29:49Take your clothes off, or I won't let you in.
00:29:53Just take your clothes off.
00:29:55No, you can't stop me.
00:29:59Grace.
00:30:01Mom, what are you doing?
00:30:03Take your clothes off, or leave.
00:30:06It's your choice.
00:30:08Fine.
00:30:08Okay, just put the knife down.
00:30:11I'll take my clothes off.
00:30:12What's that noise?
00:30:28Shit.
00:30:29It's after mine.
00:30:30Grace.
00:30:31Are you bleeding?
00:30:32Am I what?
00:30:35Ow.
00:30:36I must have scratched myself earlier.
00:30:38You need to leave now.
00:30:41It's extremely sensitive to the smell of blood.
00:30:45Go.
00:30:47Ow.
00:30:47What?
00:30:48Mom, isn't it just a fish?
00:30:51It can't be that dangerous.
00:30:53I'm doing this for your own good.
00:30:55Leave.
00:30:57Now.
00:30:58Fine.
00:30:59I'll go.
00:31:00What the hell just happened?
00:31:09I have to find out what secrets are lying behind those doors.
00:31:17Jack vanished.
00:31:18He's been ignoring my calls.
00:31:20My first real relationship is over, and I still haven't stepped foot inside that sushi shop.
00:31:27I heard you landed in your head last night.
00:31:33I booked the first flight I could.
00:31:35It's exquisite.
00:31:37Tender and juicy.
00:31:40It'll leave you purring for more.
00:31:43Jack vanishes into thin air, and Mom suddenly got a new catch.
00:31:49Business is suddenly booming.
00:31:51Let's go, then.
00:31:52I need to try the newest on the menu.
00:31:54None of that boring old stuff.
00:31:56I only want the freshest.
00:31:58Don't worry.
00:31:59Today's catch is as fresh as it gets.
00:32:03Hooked just this morning.
00:32:05Saved just for you.
00:32:07Ooh.
00:32:17Wait.
00:32:19Don't tell me.
00:32:20The reason Jack disappeared was...
00:32:23Mom!
00:32:25Is it you?
00:32:26Are you the reason Jack left?
00:32:31No.
00:32:32Grace.
00:32:33Listen.
00:32:34It's not what you think.
00:32:35I knew it.
00:32:36You scared Jack away, didn't you?
00:32:39He's a good guy.
00:32:41Different.
00:32:42Or did you...
00:32:42Or did you just kick him out so I wouldn't be anywhere near your precious sushi shop?
00:32:50Grace.
00:32:51That's not it, okay?
00:32:52It's just not the right time.
00:32:54I just want my daughter to have a normal college life.
00:32:58But Mom...
00:32:58Mom!
00:33:01That whore.
00:33:03Mom, what is going on in there?
00:33:05Don't worry about it.
00:33:06I need to tend to our customer.
00:33:08Go to your room and stay there.
00:33:14So Jack hasn't responded to you either?
00:33:16Nope.
00:33:17Nobody's heard from him since you took him to meet your mom.
00:33:19Wait.
00:33:20Do you think he disappeared?
00:33:22You know, like...
00:33:22That first guy you brought to see your mom?
00:33:24I'm not sure.
00:33:25But I'm scared my mom might have done something to him.
00:33:28Whatever it is, I think it might have to do with the sushi place.
00:33:31Nami sushi?
00:33:32That restaurant your mom runs?
00:33:34Yeah, it always gave me the creeps.
00:33:36You know, if you really want to find out what's going on, I do have an idea.
00:33:41An idea?
00:33:42What if you sneak in?
00:33:45It's almost Halloween.
00:33:46Just dress in a costume and pretend to be one of her clients.
00:33:50Megan, you're a genius.
00:33:52I know exactly where I'm going to wear.
00:34:02Miss Swan, is it?
00:34:04You're the first client I've had dressing up like this.
00:34:07I couldn't resist.
00:34:09I always wear a costume on Halloween.
00:34:12But I do hope my outfit meets your dress code requirements, ma'am.
00:34:16Mrs. Morris spoke very highly of your establishment, and I would be crushed if I had come all this way for nothing.
00:34:24Oh, don't you worry.
00:34:26A referral from Mrs. Morris is quite an endorsement.
00:34:30You have my trust.
00:34:32I'm sure she's also told you about the rules here at my sushi parlor.
00:34:37You'll have to follow them to a tee if you want to come in.
00:34:40I wouldn't be here if I wasn't prepared.
00:34:42Oh, I'm famished.
00:34:45I haven't eaten anything today.
00:34:48Let's go.
00:34:50Famished?
00:34:51Of course.
00:34:53Miss Swan.
00:34:54Does Shed really think this is a regular sushi parlor?
00:35:06Well, Miss Swan.
00:35:08I appreciate you flying out to my island.
00:35:11Where are you coming from?
00:35:12Oh, from Boston.
00:35:16Wow, that's quite the trip.
00:35:18I've been to Boston a few times myself.
00:35:21There's a famous steakhouse near Logan Airport.
00:35:25The New England Grill, if I recall correctly.
00:35:28Is it still doing well?
00:35:30Oh, um, yes.
00:35:32I know the place.
00:35:34Business is booming.
00:35:36Lines down the sidewalk every day.
00:35:40That's funny.
00:35:41I thought I read somewhere that it went bankrupt and closed down a few years ago.
00:35:46Is that so?
00:35:49Yes.
00:35:50They must have reopened then.
00:35:51I actually spend most of my time in New York,
00:35:55so I'm not too up to date on what happens back home.
00:35:59I see.
00:36:07Here we are, Miss Swan.
00:36:09Great.
00:36:11Let's go in.
00:36:12Oh, uh, one moment.
00:36:13I need to go fetch the keys.
00:36:15Please make it quick.
00:36:16I'm stopping.
00:36:17I have to see what my mom's hiding in her restaurant.
00:36:23There is no New England Grill near Logan Airport.
00:36:27Miss Swan, who are you?
00:36:31Something tells me she's just wearing that Halloween costume as a convenient disguise.
00:36:39What could she be here for?
00:36:42Sorry to keep you waiting, Miss Swan.
00:36:47Wait.
00:36:47I recognize that face.
00:36:52I recognize that face.
00:36:53Come on, let's go inside.
00:36:57Right.
00:36:59Sorry.
00:37:00It's just for a moment there you look just like my daughter.
00:37:03Oh, really?
00:37:05Well, I'm sure she's beautiful.
00:37:07Just like you.
00:37:08My daughter's quite the handful, actually.
00:37:13A born troublemaker.
00:37:15All right, Miss Swan.
00:37:16I hope you're ready.
00:37:17Okay, Nami Sushi.
00:37:29Let's see what's on the menu tonight.
00:37:39Hmm.
00:37:40Same as last time.
00:37:42The secret must be heading somewhere further in.
00:37:44So, what has Mrs. Morris told you about my sushi establishment?
00:37:50Oh, she called it an absolute paradise.
00:37:55She said that once you try it, you're hooked for life.
00:37:58Well, she's not wrong.
00:38:00What I have here, it'll turn your legs into jelly.
00:38:06Mrs. Morris would know.
00:38:08I save all my best catches for her.
00:38:11Mrs. Morris leaves her screaming and begging for more every time.
00:38:16Speaking of which, Miss Swan, you're young.
00:38:20I'm worried that you may not have the necessary experience to handle what I have in store for you.
00:38:26Experience?
00:38:28For what, exactly?
00:38:30Oh.
00:38:30With pure euphoria, Miss Swan.
00:38:34Feeling like you're in heaven, floating on a cloud.
00:38:37If you're brand new to this, I'm afraid I won't be able to serve you.
00:38:42Brand new to what?
00:38:44What does she mean by all that?
00:38:46Is this why she was so insistent on me bringing a boyfriend?
00:38:49Oh, that.
00:38:51Oh, you can rest assured.
00:38:53I have plenty of experience.
00:38:56Good.
00:38:57Just making sure.
00:38:58What I offer my customers here is intense.
00:39:01A beginner wouldn't last very long.
00:39:05Don't worry.
00:39:06I'll be fine.
00:39:11Miss Swan, it's just the two of us.
00:39:15We both know very well what it is I do here, so...
00:39:19Why don't you lose the veil?
00:39:21Miss Morris told me I would be received with warmth and discretion.
00:39:32This is no way to treat a guest now, is it?
00:39:37My apologies, Miss Swan.
00:39:39I was just concerned that your veil would get in the way of your...
00:39:44enjoyment.
00:39:45Cross that bridge when I come to it.
00:39:46Besides, don't see any sushi for me to enjoy around here.
00:39:52Huh.
00:39:53Well, this is just the front parlour,
00:39:55where guests relax and rest their feet.
00:39:58The main event takes place in the courtyard.
00:40:03And quit the foreplay and take me there.
00:40:06Oh.
00:40:08What's the rush, Miss Swan?
00:40:10You said that Mrs. Morris was the one who referred you here, right?
00:40:13I presume you two are very close.
00:40:16S-s-s-s-s-sure, I guess.
00:40:19Perfect.
00:40:20In that case,
00:40:22I'm sure you wouldn't mind if she joined our little rendezvous.
00:40:28You imposter.
00:40:30I'm going to call your bluff.
00:40:32I think it's best we don't.
00:40:35Come on.
00:40:37What I've prepared is much too large
00:40:39for a young woman like you.
00:40:42There is no way you can take all of it.
00:40:45You rat.
00:40:47If you're going to sneak into my restaurant,
00:40:49at least play nice.
00:40:51Let me handle this.
00:40:52Okay?
00:40:53I know what's best.
00:40:54Oh, God.
00:40:59This is going to be bad.
00:41:01Hello.
00:41:02Mrs. Morris.
00:41:04It's Simone.
00:41:05Your good friend, Miss Swan,
00:41:07just stopped by Nami Sushi.
00:41:09Would you like to come join us today?
00:41:11No.
00:41:12My mom's going to find out I'm a fraud.
00:41:14What do I do?
00:41:15No.
00:41:15Shame.
00:41:21Mrs. Morris is hosting a masquerade for Halloween tonight.
00:41:25She won't be able to make it.
00:41:26What?
00:41:27Did Mrs. Morris not even question who Miss Swan was?
00:41:32Who cares?
00:41:33As long as it means I can finally uncover the secret of Nami Sushi.
00:41:37A shame indeed.
00:41:39What?
00:41:40Let's head to the courtyard.
00:41:41It's where the real excitement awaits, isn't it?
00:41:44Of course, Miss Swan.
00:41:46I've prepared a house special just for you.
00:41:49A house special?
00:41:50You'll see for yourself soon enough.
00:42:00What are you doing?
00:42:02Did Mrs. Morris not tell you?
00:42:04All patrons are required to strip.
00:42:07Wait.
00:42:08We have a cut on your arm.
00:42:09Are you bleeding?
00:42:12Ow.
00:42:13I must have scratched myself earlier.
00:42:16Grace?
00:42:20Grace?
00:42:21Who's Grace?
00:42:23I'm sorry.
00:42:24It's just that you really do have an uncanny resemblance to my daughter.
00:42:28Miss Swan, are you hurt?
00:42:31No.
00:42:32Not at all.
00:42:34This is part of the costume.
00:42:37Odd costume.
00:42:37I'll admit, I don't know much about the latest Halloween trends, but be aware, Miss Swan.
00:42:44You are not allowed to enter if you have any open wounds on your person.
00:42:48Our delicacies.
00:42:50They're drawn to the scent of blood.
00:42:53It riles them up.
00:42:55Don't worry.
00:42:56It's nothing.
00:42:59See?
00:43:00I'm fine.
00:43:01Come on.
00:43:02Let's head to the courtyard.
00:43:04I'm excited to see specials you have.
00:43:09Of course.
00:43:10Right this way.
00:43:11The hot spring is a place for you to rest your weary bones while partaking in a feast for the senses.
00:43:26The real secret to our sushi shop is further in.
00:43:28That's what keeps our customers coming back again and again.
00:43:32Damn!
00:43:33This place is like a maze.
00:43:34Mom really wanted that secret buried deep.
00:43:35But today's the day the truth comes out.
00:43:36Simone!
00:43:37You've found a secret.
00:43:38You've found a secret of the art.
00:43:39The hot spring is a place for you to rest your weary bones while partaking in a feast for the senses.
00:43:44The real secret to our sushi shop is further in.
00:43:47That's what keeps our customers coming back again and again.
00:43:51Damn!
00:43:52This place is like a maze.
00:43:54Mom really wanted that secret buried deep.
00:43:56But today's the day the truth comes out.
00:43:59Simone, you've done your due diligence by hiding your products all the way back there.
00:44:06Well, this is necessary for businesses like ours to stay under the radar.
00:44:12Yeah! More!
00:44:14Wait...
00:44:15Is she...?
00:44:17Oh, don't be shy, Miss Swan.
00:44:20We're all women here. We all know what it feels like.
00:44:24Yeah. Once you get a taste of something this good, you can never get it out of your head.
00:44:30Follow me.
00:44:33Shit, shit! I forgot to turn off my phone!
00:44:40Grace?
00:44:42Grace! You're getting a call!
00:44:46Shit! Does my mom know? Am I busted?
00:44:50There's something wrong, Simone?
00:44:54What's that look on your face?
00:44:56That reminds me.
00:44:58My unruly daughter has that same examiner too.
00:45:03Supposedly she's out shopping.
00:45:05If you don't mind, I think I'll give her a quick call and see when she'll be home.
00:45:10The number you have dialed is temporarily unavailable.
00:45:31Kids these days.
00:45:33Always on their phones, but can't even pick up a call.
00:45:35Yeah, kids.
00:45:37Maybe she's having too much fun to pick up.
00:45:40You said we were going in, right?
00:45:43Well, let's go. The anticipation is killing me.
00:45:47Did Mrs. Morris really refer you here?
00:45:51Of course. I told you. I'm her friend.
00:45:55I thought you checked with her already.
00:45:58Alright. Enough with all this stalling. My precious babies are finally ready.
00:46:03What was I telling you?
00:46:10Tell me who you are.
00:46:15I... I... Miss Morris' friend. She... she referred me here.
00:46:20Stop lying! Mrs. Morris doesn't even know you.
00:46:24Hello, Mrs. Morris. It's Simone.
00:46:27Your good friend, Miss Swan, just stopped by Nami Sushi. Would you like to come join us today?
00:46:33What? I don't know Miss Swan.
00:46:37You be careful, Simone. Last thing you want is the police on your tail.
00:46:42Who are you and what are you doing in my restaurant?
00:46:45Drop the act, Miss Swan. Your story has one too many holes in it.
00:46:54What... what do you mean?
00:46:56I'm simply a friend of a friend here to enjoy your one-of-a-kind service.
00:47:02Stop!
00:47:03You said you're from Boston?
00:47:06There's not even a New England Grill near Logan Airport.
00:47:10I made it all up.
00:47:12And you were so gullible you just went along with it.
00:47:15Answer me.
00:47:17Who are you and what do you seek to gain by sneaking into my restaurant?
00:47:23I don't know what you're talking about.
00:47:25Fine. If you won't fess up, we'll do this the hard way.
00:47:33Get her, boys!
00:47:44What's in there? What are you doing?
00:47:47My house, my rooms, my babies are hungry, and you're looking like the perfect cat.
00:47:53Boys! Dinner's ready!
00:47:56No!
00:48:00Stop! Stop!
00:48:02Let's see what's behind that mask.
00:48:11Grace!
00:48:13Help!
00:48:14Stay down!
00:48:20You fool!
00:48:21This is all just a game to you?
00:48:23This is dangerous, Grace!
00:48:24You could have died!
00:48:25What was I supposed to do?
00:48:27It's been ten years and you still won't let me see what's back there.
00:48:32This was my last resort.
00:48:34What are you hiding, Mom?
00:48:35What's behind that screen?
00:48:36Why won't you tell me?
00:48:39Grace, listen.
00:48:40Just leave.
00:48:41It's for your own good.
00:48:42I'm not going anywhere.
00:48:44If you really wanted what's best for me, you'd tell me your secret.
00:48:47I can't.
00:48:48Grace, you're not ready, please.
00:48:49Just trust me.
00:48:50I'll tell you everything when the time is right.
00:48:51Shut up!
00:48:52I don't believe you.
00:48:53You're just saying that to keep me from finding out the truth.
00:48:54I'll uncover the secret behind this sushi restaurant no matter what it takes.
