O<strong>is</strong>hi begins to tie h<strong>is</strong> son’s left hand down to h<strong>is</strong> side.<br />
CHIKARA<br />
I don’t understand. Why all th<strong>is</strong>?<br />
OISHI<br />
Because every time you’re hit with<br />
strength, you switch to your left<br />
hand, and when you do that, you<br />
leave your flank exposed to right<br />
handed samurai --<br />
O<strong>is</strong>hi cinches the knot down hard to emphasize the point.<br />
OISHI<br />
-- which <strong>is</strong> everyone.<br />
(ruffles h<strong>is</strong> son’s hair)<br />
It’s for your own good.<br />
<strong>The</strong> two go back to practicing until H<strong>is</strong>ae comes outside.<br />
HISAE<br />
Enough practice, O<strong>is</strong>hi. You’ve<br />
been out here for hours. He’s a<br />
growing boy. He needs to eat as<br />
much as he needs to practice.<br />
O<strong>is</strong>hi relents with a smile.<br />
OISHI<br />
All right. Practice <strong>is</strong> over.<br />
He unties Chikara’s left hand.<br />
OISHI<br />
(grins)<br />
...but you will be eating with your<br />
right.<br />
As they move to walk inside, a RIDER comes galloping down the<br />
footpath at full-speed. Stops only inches from O<strong>is</strong>hi.<br />
O<strong>is</strong>hi’s second-in-command -- and best friend -- HANJO (late<br />
50’s) d<strong>is</strong>mounts the panting beast.<br />
O<strong>is</strong>hi stops dead.<br />
OISHI<br />
You’re going to kill that horse,<br />
Hanjo.<br />
HANJO<br />
An envoy from the Shogun has<br />
arrived at the castle.<br />
So early?<br />
OISHI
