Folktales from Japan

Midon the fisherman is wounded and can't go fishing, so he borrows money from a samurai - but can't pay it back; a wife gets mad at her drunkard husband and returns to her parents - but she misses her husband now that she's left him (repeat from episode 24), and a young servant named Sutekichi loves katanas. He wants his own, so he pays a blacksmith with a thousand logs to make one for him.
