Bordwell on Ozu's "Late Spring" query

On p. 311 of Bordwell's _Ozu and the Poetics of Cinema_, third  
paragraph from the bottom of the page, Bordwell writes "Ozu cuts away  
from Aya and Hattori to the empty tavern..." In the next paragraph he  
writes "Hattori comes home ... peels the apple..."

I haven't viewed the film in two years and am not sure, but even from  
the context of Bordwell's analysis, I assume we should read "Somiya"  
for "Hattori" in both of the above cases.

Could anyone who has Bordwell at hand help me with this? (I ask only  
because I want my students to read this analysis, but don't want them  
confused.)

I'd appreciate any help.
