THE WOMEN’S APARTMENTS<br />
Leaving a trail of blood behind him, O<strong>is</strong>hi enters...and SPIES<br />
Kira hiding among the women and children.<br />
O<strong>is</strong>hi strides to him like a wraith of vengeance. Grabs the<br />
coward by the collar of h<strong>is</strong> robes and drags him across the<br />
room.<br />
Kira scrabbles at the floor as O<strong>is</strong>hi drags him away.<br />
LORD KIRA<br />
No! Please--! NOOOOOO!!<br />
O<strong>is</strong>hi dumps him in the center of the room.<br />
LORD KIRA (CONT’D)<br />
I beg of you! I beg of you--!<br />
O<strong>is</strong>hi’s response <strong>is</strong> a lump of metal dropped at h<strong>is</strong> feet. <strong>The</strong><br />
KNIFE Asano committed seppuku with.<br />
O<strong>is</strong>hi’s voice <strong>is</strong> a study in calm and control.<br />
OISHI<br />
You recognize it.<br />
It’s not a question.<br />
LORD KIRA<br />
..w-what could I have done? He<br />
violated the law!<br />
OISHI<br />
And you have violated the honor of<br />
your House.<br />
(slides the knife closer)<br />
Redeem it.<br />
Kira looks at the knife...and begins to cry. H<strong>is</strong> tears ruin<br />
h<strong>is</strong> perfect powder-whitened face. H<strong>is</strong> blackened teeth. H<strong>is</strong><br />
regal robes.<br />
It’s pathetic.<br />
LORD KIRA<br />
Have you no mercy?<br />
O<strong>is</strong>hi’s cold, hard stare says it all -- no.<br />
Eventually, with a trembling hand, Kira picks up the knife.<br />
Sniffs and wipes h<strong>is</strong> eyes with the sleeves of h<strong>is</strong> robe.<br />
LORD KIRA (CONT’D)<br />
You will tell them I died with<br />
honor?
