Dai, Nobu: It's very awful, scary, Taka.(laughing), please don't use it for us!!
Nobu: Ai Ai Parasol.(This is a parasol that makes the couple who are under it for five min. loving each other.)
Dai: That's nice, nobu.
Dai: Honyaku Konnyaku. (This is a food that makes understanding every kinds of languages once you eat.)
How about Taka?
Taka: Doraemon's 4-dimensional pocket.
Nobu: You want all tools from the pocket!!
