HANJO<br />
Lord Asano requests your presence<br />
to receive him.<br />
Like a flipped switch, O<strong>is</strong>hi goes into command mode.<br />
OISHI<br />
Gather the men. Have them ready<br />
for presentation in an hour.<br />
Chikara looks up at h<strong>is</strong> father, hopefully.<br />
OISHI<br />
No. You stay with your mother.<br />
It’s kindly said, and stings all the more for it.<br />
And with that, O<strong>is</strong>hi mounts up. As he rides off, H<strong>is</strong>ae turns<br />
to her despondent son.<br />
HISAE<br />
He’s hard on you because he loves<br />
you.<br />
But Chikara shakes h<strong>is</strong> head.<br />
CHIKARA<br />
He loves me...but I’ll never be<br />
good enough in h<strong>is</strong> eyes.<br />
And Chikara walks off, leaving H<strong>is</strong>ae alone on the path,<br />
staring after the two men in her life departing in very<br />
separate directions...<br />
DISSOLVE TO:<br />
INT. AKO CASTLE - DAIMYO’S SHOIN - 7TH FLOOR - MOMENTS LATER<br />
<strong>The</strong> private room where the castle Lord receives audience...<br />
<strong>The</strong> paper walls and tatami mats are spotless. In fact, the<br />
only bits of color come from the black and gray kimonos of<br />
Lord Asano and O<strong>is</strong>hi, who kneel at the rear of the room.<br />
Just then, the shoji doors slide open and LORD KIRA enters --<br />
an explosion of pomposity and sumptuous silk. Rather than<br />
the plain formal robes that Asano and O<strong>is</strong>hi wear, Lord Kira<br />
floats along in the most GAUDILY ORNATE ROBE we’ve ever seen.<br />
A dozen ATTENDANTS follow behind, wrangling Kira’s arm and<br />
leg sleeves that trail twenty feet behind.<br />
After countless prec<strong>is</strong>e steps, Lord Kira and h<strong>is</strong> entourage<br />
stop and a COURTIER steps forward.
