Hisashi Igawa: Masuo Masuda

Quotes 

• Tatsu Masuda : Don't get drunk again. Come straight home tonight.

  Masuo Masuda : Shut up. You're the one driving me to drink.

• Masuo Masuda : All women are the same. They nag you so much you end up in a bad mood. After work, let's have a drink.

• Masuo Masuda : I can't stand my damn wife anymore. I feel like I'm some kind of dog all tied up.

  Hatsutaro Kawaguchi : I don't really understand, but that can't feel good, can it?

  Masuo Masuda : Of course not. It's just like having a bucketful of sand poured over your head while you're eating.

• Hatsutaro Kawaguchi : Husbands have to work hard enough outside. It's only natural they want their wives to be nice to them.

  Masuo Masuda : But my wife isn't like that. She's like a nail digging into a cavity in my tooth.

• Hatsutaro Kawaguchi : Women are really impossible.

  Masuo Masuda : Yeah.

  Hatsutaro Kawaguchi : They have too much free time. They enjoy turning a little thing into something huge.

• Yoshie Kawaguchi : I'll have some. Pour me some.

  Masuo Masuda : You want some sake?

  [pours some missing the cup] 

  Masuo Masuda : My hands must be drunk, too.

  Yoshie Kawaguchi : You're spilling it all over.

• Masuo Masuda : You're Hatsu's Yoshie, aren't you? This is a big surprise. I feel sort of funny. Strange. My heart isn't beating at all.

  Yoshie Kawaguchi : Let me see. It's thumping all right. It's moving my hand.

  Masuo Masuda : Oh, is it? How is your heart?

  Yoshie Kawaguchi : Feel for yourself.

  Masuo Masuda : May I? It takes too long this way. The hell with your heart.

  Yoshie Kawaguchi : Hold on a minute. Not so rough. Wait.

  Masuo Masuda : Am I rough?

  Yoshie Kawaguchi : What's the matter? Don't go to sleep there.

• Tatsu Masuda : You had the devil killer, didn't you?

  Masuo Masuda : So what? What's wrong with that? Give me some water.

  Tatsu Masuda : Don't ask too much.

  Masuo Masuda : Why don't you mind your husband for once? Water!
