Did you want to talk to me, Miss Tanaka?
Yes, you see, I just wanted to let you know that my father,
well, as you know, he's recently been diagnosed with dementia.
Most of the time it's not an issue and his spats never last long.
It's just that I wanted to prepare you.
Sometimes he's really not himself.
Ah, okay, Miss Tanaka, I think I understand.
Can your father become aggressive?
Yes, I mean, I think it's just that he gets frustrated sometimes.
He can't remember things, and I think it's scary for him.
He was never ever like this before his dementia,
and those periods, well, they really don't reflect his true character.
Of course... thanks for letting me know.
