Episode 01: A Man and A Woman's Choices
Eda Wakare: Life is a continuous series of turning points. People encounter all kinds of turning points from day to day, and they have to make choices...
...
Eda Wakare: Some choices don't affect a person's life all that much. And some choices are critical, a matter of life and death.
Eda Wakare: If you make the wrong choice in life, there's no turning back.
Eda Wakare: If there is a turning point to which you could return, which would it be?
Urasawa Kaori: The decent thing to do is call when you're running late.
Urasawa Kaori: Why haven't you apologized? You haven't apologized yet, have you?
Urasawa Kaori: If you're late, you're supposed to apologize first, then ask if I waited long, right?
Eda Wakare: They say "the fish that got away is always the biggest".
Eda Wakare: You have a general idea that life has many turning points, right? What kind of job will you get? What kind of house will you live in? What will you have for dinner? What will you say to your girlfriend when she's angry with you? At those turning points, the choices you make are the choices that will shape your life.
Eda Wakare: However, just because you go back doesn't guarantee that things will go well, because what happens next is contingent on the choice that you will make.
Eda Wakare: Well, women complaining to others about their boyfriends or husbands happens all the time.
Eda Wakare: When people are put in certain situations, they find it hard to fight the tide.
Eda Wakare: Why did things happen the way they did? Put yourself in other people's shoes, and use your imagination.
Kanezaki ?: What kind of drama is it?
?: Well, how do I explain... In short, the protagonist is a detective who is a criminal; or is he a criminal who is a detective?
Shirube Michio: Indecisiveness just shows how careful you are about everything.
Eda Wakare: You never know what can happen in life.
Episode 02: Present and Past Choices
Eda Wakare: I lied. I'm a coward.
Eda Wakare: Is this how I'm going to go on living my life -- acting as a fraud, only concerned about what others think of me?
Eda Wakare: But what I did in that circumstance was inevitable. No man wants a woman to think of him as creepy. Conversations about such matters should only take place between those who share the same values. There is no point in taking a risk to appeal to a woman who doesn't share your interests.
Eda Wakare: Life has many turning points. What kind of job will you get? What kind of house will you live in? What action will you take when you're a witness? It's the choices you make that will determine your future.
Episode 03: Choices of Love
Eda Wakare: You have a general idea that life has many turning points, right? What kind of job will you get? What kind of house will you live in? What will you have for dinner? When should you ask your illicit partner to marry you? At so many turning points, what choices are you going to make? Because they're the choices that will shape your life.
Eda Wakare: It's possible to make a different choice...
Eda Wakare: However, just because you go back doesn't guarantee that things will go well, because the rest is contingent on the choice that you will make.
Episode 04: Choices of Money and Desire
Eda Wakare: You have a general idea that life has many turning points, right? What kind of job will you get? What kind of house will you live in? What will you have for dinner? How will you spend your time? At so many turning points, what choices are you going to make? Because they're the choices that will shape your life.
Eda Wakare: You can never predict what happens in life.
Episode 05: Choices of Woman vs. Woman
Kudo Kazufumi: That's a sign of a good cook, maintaining their work station as they go.
Eda Wakare: You have a general idea that life has many turning points, right? What kind of job will you get? What kind of house will you live in? What will you have for dinner? How will you behave at a 'marriage hunting' party? At so many turning points, what choices are you going to make? Because they're the choices that will shape your life.
Maeda ?: That's a sign of a good cook, maintaining their work station as they go.
Episode 06: Gullible Choices
Eda Wakare: Recommending things to people take courage. That's because it's a kind of audition, which pits your personal taste to the test.

Episode 07: Choices of Lies or Truth
Eda Wakare: I suppose there are upstanding people who are reformed delinquents.
Naito Akira: That's true.
Eda Wakare: But isn't there a trend nowadays favoring former delinquents?
Naito Akira: There is.
Eda Wakare: Something about that doesn't sit right with me. You hear about a former delinquent who became a teacher, a former delinquent who became a CEO, and so on. It's as if former delinquents get more admiration than a normal person.
Naito Akira: True, true.
Eda Wakare: If that's the case, I mean, shouldn't people who have always been upstanding receive more admiration?
Naito Akira: I agree.
Eda Wakare: Right? But for some reason, former delinquents are held in higher esteem. There's something definitely wrong with that picture. They were rotten, and then they became normal. There's nothing great about that, because no they're just normal.
Eda Wakare: Well, I think your current situation is a result of a conflation of many different circumstances, of both the good and the bad. Everything, you know?

Episode 10: Choices for Me and You
Seki Kanna: I think she wanted you to hear her out.
...
Usami Natsuki: She didn't want your opinion as someone more experienced in business.
Seki Kanna: She wanted you, as her boyfriend, to push her into it.
...
Usami Natsuki: Though she wanted your opinion, she'd already made up her mind. But of course she has her doubts, so she wanted you to support her decision.
