The eel is too heavy for the boat, so they haul it up to Asuka's house. When they get there, they find that it's a mottled giant eel that's about 40cm long. They're not sure if they've caught two or three, but they're sure they'll be surprised. They decide to let the big one go first, and then let the smaller one go. They don't want to take any more than they need. They head back to the Asuka house, where they find a writhe of seaweed on the sweater of a woman who's been carrying the giant eel back to her house. The woman's name is homare, and she's carrying the big eel back home. The giant eel is still alive, and the little one is dead. The big one is going to be fine, but the small one needs to go first. So they just let the giant one go, and let's get it ready to eat. As soon as they get to the house, they realize that there's still a lot of eel guts in the water. They have to sweat and flail to get the guts out of the water, and when they finally get them out, they wonder if they should eat the liver instead of the eel. Um, no. They should marinate the whole thing in a stock made of the guts, liver, heart, and seaweed. Then they should grill it on the grill while they cook it. They can't wait to eat the eel, and they decide to give it to the woman. She's going to serve it as a kind of liver soup, which is great, but not as good as the real thing.
