Tom realizes this maybe a chance of salvation, and his spirits raise when she accepts his invitation for a date. Dinner and sake breaks the barriers between them, the passion flows as time passes. However Tom can’t escape his past and his redemption is threatened by the visions of what he saw and did. As past and present collide he realizes he can’t run from the past or his future.
