俳句仲間のエモリさんとシンディが東京の荻窪に来ています。
Mr. Emori, I want to take you on a tour of Ogikubo today.
It’s my first time here. What a nice little town!
Yes, it’s a quiet place. First, I want to show you a historical landmark to the left here.
Is this it? It’s a very old Japanese gate.
That’s right. This is the place where the Meiji Emperor rested while traveling.
Wow! To my surprise, you know more about Japanese history than I do.
恋人と別れたばかりのヒロキが、 手相占い師のところに来ています。
Oh, it’s you again. You must really believe in palm reading.
Hi, it has been a while. A lot has happened.
Please, sit down. Do you want another reading?
Yes, I’m having problems again.
Just between you and me, I knew that already.
How?
I know. I can read between the lines. You and your girlfriend broke up, right?
Yes, we did! Anything else?
There is another woman.
No, you’re wrong. That’s over.
I don’t know about that.
火星探査チームのアキラとメーガンが、異星人が何かを基地の中に送り込んできたことで話しています。
Akira, you said some computers were severely damaged by the alien ship. Is there any other damage?
I went into the other rooms to check. There was no other damage, but I found this strange round object.
What is it? Some kind of green crystal egg? Where did it come from?
It must have come from the aliens. It’s not part of our equipment.
Why would they leave us an egg?
I can’t say for sure yet, but I think it’s a message to us.
ウィルがリコの息子レンジと偶然会ったことを、リコと話しています。
Hi, Will. Good morning.
Good morning, Riko. Did you have a nice weekend?
It was OK. I heard you bumped into my son Renji on Sunday.
Yes, I did. I saw him at the shopping mall. He’s grown into a fine young man.
I’m not sure about that, but thank you.
He’s very handsome. He must be popular with the girls.
Too popular. He spends too much time on his phone. He needs to get into his studies more.

Let me see. Mmm…can’t you read between the lines?
Though she isn’t saying she’s not interested, she has dropped so many hints!

Oh, a present for me? Candles on the dinner table? What’s gotten into you?
