00:15:31 You're Mariko Webber, aren't you? Ah!
00:18:42 There was no one to go to, no one to turn to.
00:22:54 Ah, so.
00:26:09 - [Japanese] - Huh?
00:30:27 Don't take any chances. You'd better double-check those figures yourself.

00:41:24 Oh, I... I did not know what to say, Eddie.
00:45:56 [Chuckles] You... You better go back to your eggs.
