00:17Mama. They came for me, like you said. The bad men. It was my fault.
00:29I'm sorry I'm a monster, Mama. I'll avenge us, Mama. I swear it. If it takes all my life, if
00:45it takes my death, I swear it, Mama. I swear it.
00:55Master? Master!
01:02You'll be here soon, Fowler.
01:07You're sure you can find Akemi before they come?
01:10I have to. I promised you I would. Are you ready?
01:20Get to the north sewer. Make sure we can get through. Wait till I see Akemi and take her far
01:24from the castle. Do not die.
01:27If you get caught by swordsmen...
01:29The Falcons die.
01:30If you get caught by spearmen...
01:33Run.
01:37Master.
01:38Master. What about Fowler's army?
01:42Not my concern. Only his death matters.
01:46But what if they kill the Shogun?
01:50Shogun Ito allowed white men into Japan for his own gain, against his own laws. He deserves whatever comes.
02:00Ringo. After I kill Fowler, I'll find you here.
02:04Master. If I don't come back...
02:07Master. Of course you will.
02:08If I don't, I failed, or I'm dead.
02:15Don't be silly, Master. You can't die. You don't know how.
02:28Master.
02:44Of all the indignities Father dumps on us,
02:47this fat, white, overcooked dumpling is the worst.
02:56Unnecessary evil.
02:59Ah.
03:00The dumpling is served.
03:13I thought hard on the right gift for your father this pilgrimage.
03:18What do you get for the man who gets everything?
03:22Crass I know, but for once I thought I'd dispense with metaphor, and just bring the thing itself.
03:29Your father thinks of me, and thinks of the gold I bring, here it is, here I am.
03:38My father extends his gratitude for our continued alliance.
03:42Alliance?
03:43I made your father the second richest man in the world.
03:50The Shogun thanks you.
03:54Does he?
03:59Each year, I come to pay obeisance at his throne, only to be shunted to this lovely hill.
04:06Used to be his advisors who'd accept my gifts on behalf, now I get his strapping sons.
04:12I don't suppose this year I might be allowed to meet the man in person, face to face, after all
04:21these years.
04:24It would be difficult.
04:28You understand.
04:30There's a grand party ripening down there as we speak, the council of elders at the height of the spring
04:35matsuri, the high lords feasting, drinking, heady affairs of state.
04:41I, mustn't I rate a seat at that table, this time?
04:47As I said, it would be difficult.
04:53Of course, until next year then.
05:15Our finest Nishijin brocade, woven with gold for Shogun Ito.
05:26Enough gifts for now, we have currency value to discuss.
05:32One more gift, if you'll permit.
05:35Carved from rhinoceros horn, a male, a feared pack leader, known to have sired 50 young from 40 females.
05:45A worthy cup for the Shogun.
06:02An auspicious sign, blessings conferred over the council of elders.
06:25I'd sooner believe you a ghost than still alive.
06:29I take it you saw Fowler's castle and ran.
06:32Where's Akimi?
06:34I watched you watch soldiers drag her off screaming.
06:38She's Lady Akimi now.
06:41Lady Akimi gave me and my girls comfortable positions here.
06:45I see to her affairs, and she would not want you here.
06:49Nor would the castle guards want to find a man in the women's quarters.
06:53I've followed Fowler here.
06:55I believe he's planning to overthrow the Shogunate today.
06:58He'll kill everyone in the Edo clan.
07:00Anyone in their household.
07:03What if my girls heard rumors of an attack?
07:07Akimi took her to inform her father.
07:09I haven't seen either since.
07:11Go. Now.
07:13Take your girls and run.
07:17Be far away when the gunfire starts.
07:27All the lords are in the sun.
07:29Drinking.
07:31Games.
07:32Bowing to a Shogun who will soon be dead.
07:37You should eat.
07:40It's an important day.
07:47You used to look at me with admiration.
07:51You planned to have my husband killed.
07:53You mean the horrible brute you ran away from?
07:56You still don't see it.
07:58I'm giving you everything you want.
08:01Once the Shogun and his loyalists are dead, you're free.
08:04Right after you, the only surviving member of the Edo clan, declare support for your father as a new Shogun.
08:13I won't.
08:16I won't.
08:16You breathed your first breath because of me.
08:19And you breathe now because I allow it.
08:25A son is needed.
08:27For once in my life, I call on a daughter.
08:32That fat white pig thinks I'll be his compliant little puppet.
08:37Once I get rid of him, all of Japan will be mine too.
08:49Seki, what is this?
08:52Akemi is coming with me.
08:54If she wishes.
08:58You...
08:58You came back for me.
09:06I did what I thought was best for you, when it was never for me to decide.
09:13Can you forgive me, child?
09:17All these years at my side, to throw your life away today.
09:23For a daughter.
09:30You breathe now.
09:32Because I allow it.
09:55Who released Lady Akemi?
09:58Stand aside, fool.
09:59You know I speak for Lord Daichi.
10:01Not this time.
10:03Turn around.
10:04Back to your cell.
10:26Who is your friend?
10:28He is not my friend.
10:30Do you still want your freedom?
10:36Then follow me.
10:38Ringo is waiting for you at the sewer.
10:42Ringo?
10:44Your ski plan is Ringo?
11:09It worked!
11:11Sorry.
11:16Falcon's dive.
11:18Not bad.
11:20You've been training.
11:22Taigen!
11:23You're here!
11:25The Shogun is in danger.
11:27I am still a loyal samurai.
11:29I came to warn him of Fowler's insurgents.
11:33Do you know the Shogun?
11:35Do you know the Shogun?
11:35I can't get anywhere near him.
11:38I told the head of the castle guard I saw the white man's army and camped outside Edo.
11:42He just said, there are no white men in Japan.
11:46Where's the Shogun now?
11:48In the castle gardens surrounded by guards.
11:51If I tried to reach him alone, I'd be dead in seven steps.
11:56Maybe, together, we can get near enough to warn him before we die.
12:02Come with me and we can-
12:03Master said,
12:04Mizu doesn't care about anyone but himself and his revenge.
12:09Ringo, didn't you say you wanted to be great?
12:13The gods are giving you that chance.
12:16Now, what do you do when you get exactly what you prayed for?
12:24There, by the water.
12:28Eight guards, archers.
12:30How do we get around them all?
12:32A puzzle.
12:34Hmm.
12:35What would Master do?
12:38Mizu?
12:39Mizu is the least careful, least tactical, most infuriating man I've ever met.
12:45Yes.
12:47But what would he do?
12:49He's so stupid, he'd go straight to the front door.
13:03The End
13:16Don't attack!
13:17Listen!
13:18We come with the-
13:19Warning!
13:20Listen to me!
13:21It went fine. He's an odious creature, even for a white man.
13:30Taigen!
13:35Why do you do business with him?
13:37Please. A pleasant day wants pleasant subjects.
13:42Takayoshi, where is your beautiful new wife? Have you tired her out so soon?
13:51Kill me if you want! But let me warn the Shogun first! His life is in danger!
14:05The Shogun?
14:07Who dares point a weapon in the Shogun's direction?
14:10I am not an assassin. I am a loyal samurai from Kyoto, serving Lord Daichi Tokunobu.
14:15Come with a warning to save the Shogun's life.
14:20Abijah Fowler is coming. With an army. Armed with guns.
14:26Please. Only look. Then kill me.
14:35The Shogun's house, bitch.
14:36The Shogun's house died.
14:38The Shogun's house died.
14:55The Shogun's house is in danger.
14:55That shogun's house, and the Shogun's house died.
15:24We don't have long.
15:28Wait.
15:33Why are we stopping?
15:37Freedom.
15:38I reclaimed a portion of your
15:40dowry.
15:42With this, you can go anywhere.
15:44Live any life you want.
15:46With Taigen, without,
15:48your direction will never again
15:50be anyone's choice
15:51but yours.
15:55The farm you grew up on
15:57in Kokura.
15:58On the hill.
15:59Away from everything.
16:04Do you think it's still there?
16:13He's here.
16:16He's here.
16:25Take them to the keep.
16:27Hurry.
16:29Every archer,
16:30every man
16:32do not make me meet
16:34my enemy.
16:35They won't reach the first gate.
16:39You are a loyal samurai.
16:42Give this man a sword.
16:44He stays at my side.
16:51And he stays at mine.
16:56Shogun!
17:05Hurry, hurry.
17:07You'll be safe in here.
17:16You're the second son.
17:20You're recently married.
17:25Where is your wife?
17:29I don't...
17:31know.
17:40Fowler.
17:41He's here.
17:44Go to the north sewer.
17:45Ringo will be there
17:46waiting to take you
17:47out of the city.
17:48Stop for nothing.
17:50Akemi.
17:51We are not friends.
17:53Taigen is searching for you.
17:57Stubborn enough,
17:57he'll find you.
17:59He believes he loves you
18:00very much.
18:03He's not a good man.
18:06He could be a great one.
18:09Tom?
18:15Come on.
18:16Come on.
18:18Come on.
18:20Come on.
18:25Come on.
18:28Come on.
18:31Come on.
18:39Let them come.
18:41No one's breached these walls in 400 years.
18:53Here's as good as anywhere.
19:00Fire, please.
19:13Fire, please.
19:14Fire, please.
19:19Fire, please.
19:21Fire, please.
19:25Fire, please.
19:33This is the moment we're all going through.
19:39I don't know.
20:03An army of guns. The Shogun has no idea what's coming.
20:08All defenses get in line. They got over the bridge, now they're pinned at the gate. Get ready to slaughter
20:14them all.
20:16Archers, aim!
20:36Archers, aim!
20:37Archers, aim!
20:38Archers, aim!
20:41Archers, aim!
21:16They tore through the first gate like paper.
21:32They tore through the first gate.
21:53They tore through the first gate.
21:56Ready the oil!
21:58Go!
22:01Captain, is the final gate secure?
22:06Locked from within.
22:07Even if they get close, they'll never push through.
22:11Good.
22:26Good.
22:27Good.
22:30Good.
22:39Good.
22:42Good.

29:49I don't know.
30:20I don't know.
31:09I don't know.
31:12Nothing comes from being a samurai, but death.
31:20We're not done yet.
31:23I know.
31:54You just keep happening.
31:58You don't know what I've done to reach you.
32:02This doesn't end until you die.
32:11I don't know what I've done to die.
32:45He's crazy.
32:50I don't know what I've done to die.
33:15I don't know what I've done to die.
33:49I don't know what I've done to die.
33:53I don't know what I've done to die.
34:01I don't know what I've done to die.
34:24I don't know what I've done to die.
34:28I don't know what I've done to die.
34:31I don't know what I've done to die.
34:57Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, Ziggy, Ziggy, no!
35:04They'll count us both among the dead. Go if you want. Always, only as you want. You're free.
35:26My favorite dream for Japan is the one rule by you. I raised you to the...
35:44I raised you.
35:50Ziggy.
35:50Ziggy.
36:00Ziggy.
36:21Oh, oh.
36:22Mm-hmm.
36:47Lock the gate.
36:49The lords are coming.
36:50They'll be trapped.
36:51They saw your father die.
36:54They saw his shame.
36:55They should have opened their stomachs when they had the chance.
36:59You are Shogun now.
37:01This is what it means to rule.
37:06Oh, my God.
37:11Oh, my God.
37:14Freeze!
37:15No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
37:57No, no, no, no, no, no.
38:26No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
38:45No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
38:57I want to be great.
39:20Come on, Master.
39:42Your bones break like a woman's.
39:55Oh, you just keep getting better.
39:58Little miss.
40:01So you're the one?
40:04Yes.
40:25Oh, you're the one.
40:26Oh, you're the one.
40:28Oh, you're the one.
40:33The biggest city in the world is burning to the ground as a blood sacrifice to your revenge.
40:46Oh, my dear. That's your white half showing. Maybe you are mine.
40:54There were four of you. Come to Japan trading guns, opium, flesh. Where are the other two?
41:03Oh, so you can kill all four of your maybe fathers?
41:07Tell me.
41:11Kill me? You'll never find them. They're hidden. Past even your pretty eyes.
41:18I found Violet. I found you.
41:22We lived loud. You'll never find Skeffington alone. You're tall, like him. Or rightly with his pretty eyes.
41:40They were the worst of us. Wealth-drawn selling Japan's unwanted daughters, like you.
41:50Don't you want to know who they are?
41:52Don't you want to know which one tried to burn you alive as a baby? Which one killed your mother?
41:59I saw my mother die.
42:01Did you?
42:04That wasn't your mother. That was your maid. Paid to keep you hidden. Which I hear she did till the
42:14money ran out.
42:18There's so much you don't know.
42:20There's so much you don't know.
42:24Scaffington.
42:27Rightly.
42:29You want to find them, you need me.
42:34Alive.
42:36Why?
42:38Because I know another word you don't know.
42:41A magic word.
42:46London.
43:06Two thousand guns recovered.
43:10Destroy everyone.
43:13My son will not make the same mistakes as father did.
43:18We will not indulge any influence of the West.
43:27So much lost.
43:29Cities can be rebuilt.
43:32Your prayers should be in thanks. Your brother survived.
43:37And your wife.
43:45I thank Heaven for her safety.
43:52How grateful we are your father lived.
43:56Are his wounds severe?
43:59My father is strong.
44:01He only needs time for quiet recovery.
44:06Under my care.
44:28I waited.
44:33Master didn't come back.
44:38Hmm.
44:45We can wait forever.
44:50Or...
44:51We can work.
45:10We can't wait.
45:11The man who's seeing...
45:11...and I'm...
45:32...to be like...
45:32I can wait forever.
45:32We could see him...
45:33You should look at him...
45:33A man...
45:33A man...
45:35A man...
45:37A man...
45:38... is even a man halfway.
