7

In Japan, Keaton and Yuriko meet up with Taihei Hiraga, Keaton's father who studies zoology. Taihei's friend Akemi drops him off at a cottage for summer vacation. At the cottage, Yuriko wants Keaton and Taihei to reconcile with their ex-wives and reunite the family. While Yuriko visits neighbors Mr. Shinjo and Mrs. Shinjo, Keaton and Taihei discuss about Patricia Hiraga, Taihei's ex-wife. Yuriko tells neighbor Mrs. Murata about how both Keaton and Taihei were both divorced by their ex-wives. Keaton and Taihei try to make buckwheat noodles and summer pudding. When Yuriko returns home, it is shown that Taihei realizes that the horseradishes have rotted in the garden while Keaton finds the recipe for summer pudding. When Keaton deduces that the summer pudding was made with pennyroyal mint, he borrows Taihei's dog Taisuke in order to find the field of pennyroyal mint previously planted by Patricia. At night, Keaton and Taihei work together to build a windpump in order to water the field, despite disturbing the neighbors. The next day, after Keaton believes that Patricia returned to Cornwall because of the pennyroyal mint grown there, Yuriko alerts Taihei that he received a phone call from Akemi. Keaton tells Yuriko that Patricia's hometown was filled with the scenic view of pennyroyal mint. Taihei writes a letter informing that he has departed back to Tokyo, taking a box of buckwheat and horseradishes with him. Keaton and Yuriko make summer pudding together, having hauled back a basket full of pennyroyal mint. (Source: Wikipedia)
