:22:01
OK.
:22:18
Will Mother get better now?
:22:21
I hope she will.
:22:23
You boys shouldn't have
to worry about such things.

:22:26
I'll just have to work harder.
:22:28
I'd like to know
if we'll ever have enough food.

:22:31
Will we?
:22:32
Yes, son, when the war is over.
:22:36
When will it be over?
:22:37
It won't be long.
Japan has all but lost the war.

:22:41
Why do we keep on fighting
if we've lost the war?

:22:44
Why? Because our government
is run by madmen.

:22:47
They're just stupid, crazy.
All of them.

:22:50
Father, you shouldn't
say stuff like that.

:22:52
They might call you
a traitor or something.

:22:54
Traitor, coward...
those words mean nothing to me.

:22:56
Actually, come to think of it...
:22:58
I'm proud if they want
to call me those things.

:23:01
This war can't be right...
:23:03
but it's only the cowards
like me who dare say it.

:23:07
If there were
only a few more like us.

:23:09
You know, sometimes it takes
more courage...

:23:11
not to fight than to fight,
to not want to kill...

:23:14
when all around you
are calling out for blood.

:23:17
That's real courage in my book.
:23:19
If you boys remember nothing
else that I teach you...

:23:22
I hope you'll remember that,
all right?

:23:29
- Hey, Father?
- What is it?

:23:31
I just wanted to say
I love you, Father.

:23:33
Yeah, I want to say
I love you, too, Father.

:23:36
I know.
:23:39
Are you sure you don't mind?
:23:41
I should be sharing this
with all of you.

:23:44
Don't be silly, Mother.
:23:45
You're not well,
and you're eating for two now.

:23:48
You're right.
:23:49
Well, how is it?
:23:51
It's delicious.
:23:57
Why the big grin, son?
:23:59
A secret.
