Episode 10 :
すべて お すてる じょせい！("The
Woman Who Threw It All Away!")
Tsukushi, Yuki, and Kazuya
have arrived at Shizuka's house for her birthday party. The place is HUGE!
Tsukushi is worried because she will have to face Doumyouji again after what he
did to her previously in the hallway at school. Kazuya and Yuki are awed by all
the famous people they see at the crowded party. Nishikado approaches them and
gives Tsukushi a backhanded compliment about her new, jazzed up look given to
her by Yuki's sister. He then starts to hit on Yuki, but Tsukushi manages to
warn her friend away from the infamous playboy.
Tsukushi consults her orange decision-maker, but the results
don't help her much. She resolves not to be afraid of Doumyouji. Kazuya and Yuki
run around point out all the famous people they see from TV. Tsukushi ignores
them until she finally points out Mochida Maki over to the right of them.
(Mochida Maki is Tsukushi's voice actress!
) Kazuya
runs up to Maki, gets her autograph, and then dances around happily. Afraid that
they are attracting too much attention, Tsukushi and Yuki move over to a food
table. There they see foods they have never eaten and don't really recognize.
Kazuya almost embarrasses them again. Rui arrives and helps Tsukushi at the
table with her foods and identifies one of them for her.
Tsukushi sees Doumyouji surrounded by beautiful models, each
of them gushing over him, telling him that he didn't call, or that it is long
time no see, etc. Tsukushi gets very annoyed to see Doumyouji get all of this
attention.
Tsukushi enjoys the party as much as she can when she then
sees this cute redheaded girl in a kimono being harassed by a man.
The guy is some TV producer, and he is drunk and annoying the girl. The girl
runs to Tsukushi and hides behind her, asking Tsukushi to help her. Tsukushi
looks at the drunken guy and sees in his drunken, rude behaviour Doumyouji's
face. This makes Tsukushi mad, and she snaps, hitting the man and basically
beating the crud out of him. The girl she helped is grateful, and the party
guests are impressed with Tsukushi's toughness. The other F4 guys remark on how
similar Tsukushi is to Doumyouji. They thought she was going to kill that guy.
Doumyouji and Tsukushi deny being like each other at all.
Just then Shizuka makes her appearance, looking beautiful in
a party dress. She walks to a podium and asks into a microphone if her guests
are enjoying themselves, etc. Then she says she has an announcement to make.
She, Toudou Shizuka, will be leaving Japan for France very soon, never to return
to Japan again. This stuns the crowd. Shizuka announces that she intends to live
in France and study law, becoming a lawyer in order to help people. Everyone is
absolutely shocked. Shizuka's father is upset, asking who will take over the
Toudou company if Shizuka is gone. Shizuka is leaving behind her career as a
model to become a lawyer, and will thus no longer need her model's hair. With
that, Shizuka pulls out a pair of scissors and cuts off all her hair. The crowd
is still speechless until the reporters rush forward to get answers from Shizuka.
Tsukushi is shocked too, and knows that Rui must be feeling
awful right now. Tsukushi finds Rui, who tells her to tell everyone else that he
left early. Then he leaves. Tsukushi is upset and worried, etc. She looks for
something to drink and starts to drink some alcohol. She wanders around the
party, not feeling very well because of the alcohol and the excitement of the
evening.
Tsukushi comes across Doumyouji and overhears a conversation
between him and a businessman. The businessman is trying to get Doumyouji to
tell his father about the businessman's ideas, or to get Doumyouji to let the
businessman speak to Doumyouji's father. Doumyouji looks irritated and tells the
businessman to come back and talk to him in 8 or 9 years time when he inherits
his father's company, that is, if the businessman's company is still in
existence by then. This upsets the businessman and the guy leaves.
Tsukushi wanders up to Doumyouji, and they stare at each
other. Tsukushi gets angry when Doumyouji refuses to apologize for his behavior
in the hallway. She makes fun of him and all those girls that hang all over him.
Doumyouji tells her he knows that they don't really like him, they just hang
around him because he is rich. He tells Tsukushi to watch what she is doing.
Tsukushi, meanwhile, is feeling really ill again. She
stumbles into Doumyouji and lands in his arms. Doumyouji looks very startled and
blushes a little, saying that he had just told her to watch what she was doing.
Tsukushi them proceeds to puke all over Doumyouji's Armani suit. (This was the
scene that Tsukushi was reading about in the manga in episode 6!)
The next morning Tsukushi wakes up in her own bed. Her mother
tells her that Doumyouji had sent her home in one of his cars. Tsukushi's mom is
reading in the newspaper about Shizuka's startling announcement.
Toys used in the episode: Tsukushi brings the orange
decision-maker thing to the party with her and consults it when she is nervous
about confronting Doumyouji.
