[Blackthorne]
My name is John Blackthorne!

I'm English,
pilot of the Erasmus,

a Dutch merchant vessel.

Lies! You're a pirate!

They don't know about us,
do they?

The great Lord Yoshii Toranaga
wants to meet you.

What does he want with me?

Play with your balls, maybe.
How should I know?

[Dell'Acqua]
This English pilot--
how do you mean

he is obscene?

You know the sort.
Uh, dirty. Diseased.

And he's got a filthy mouth.

He's like a back-passage whore
of the 15th rank.

Know what I mean,
Father-Visitor?

These journals are proof
of his depravity.

Look, Your Eminence.

Sacked, slaughtered and
pillaged his way through Manila.

He's a real piece of work,
that one. Brutal savage.

So we show these
to the Japanese.

And he will be hanged
for piracy.

I'm afraid it may not
be so simple.

Despite the discord in Osaka,

Toranaga is still
president of foreign relations.

He's a thorough man.

I fear he'll want a complete
translation of this journal.

Perhaps a bit too complete.

I'll thank you to leave now.

So you know, this, uh, pirate--

he's not a man to leave
his fate with God.

I suggest you don't, either.

So he knows everything
about Macao.

Christ as my witness...

with these bushos
on the verge of open war,

the last thing we need
is any discussion

of past entanglements.

Well, then let us
be grateful our visitor

- does not speak Japanese.
- Hm.

I'm going to the castle where
Toranaga has been sequestered.

I'm to translate for him
this afternoon.

Martin.

These are critical times
for the mission.

You will see to it
this man is not a problem.

[horse whinnying]

[door slides closed]

Shit.

Good morning.

My name is Martin Alvito
of the Society of Jesus.

You must be the Anjin.

- What does that mean?
- It means "pilot."

The way Tsuji means
"translator" for me.

You are in the court
of Lord Yoshii Toranaga,

and I am the interpreter
to the Council of Regents.

Oh, good, so you'll
be able to twist my words

in your Portuguese favor.

What did you just say?

[Alvito]
Exactly what you said.

I will translate
without prejudice.

Well, seeing as you're
so bloody honest,

perhaps you would
do me the courtesy

of telling him we are enemies.

[Alvito] Tell him yourself.

The Japanese word
for "enemy" is teki.

Gesture at me and say the word.

He will understand.

I may be your enemy,

John Blackthorne
of the Erasmus...

but I am not your assassin.

That you will do yourself.

Hm.

He wants to know
why we are enemies.

Because our countries
are at war.

[Alvito]
Tell him where you're from.

England.

It's an island kingdom,

1,000 miles north of Portugal.

[continues speaking Japanese]

[Alvito] Why are you at war
with my kingdom?

Because England refuses
to be intimidated by Catholics.

[Alvito translating]

[Alvito] You are not Catholic?

There are two
Christian religions.

Protestant and Catholic.

We English are Protestant.

[Blackthorne]
Yes.

Though I won't know for sure
till I'm dead.

I am not a pirate.

My ship contains
letters of marque

from the rulers
of a nation called Holland,

authorizing us to trade
in all seas.

And to defend ourselves against
anyone who dare stop us.

I cannot conceive of being
an enemy to you, Lord.

Then I would commend
my soul to God.

For surely I would die

by the hand of a teki

like you.

[guard calls out]

- [door slides open]
- [Alvito] Move.

This is Lord General Ishido.

Toranaga's chief rival.
If you value your life,

- do not say a word.
- [door slides closed]

Bow. Fast.

[chuckles]

You are to be detained.

- For how long?
- I do not know, Anjin.

But I will pray for your soul.

[Blackthorne]
What have you told him,
you bastard?

This is fucking great.

[mumbles indistinctly]

There's clearly been some sort
of misunderstanding.

Where are you taking me?

If I've committed
some sort of offense,

I apologize. Apolo...

Do any of you people understand
a damn word I'm saying?

You, up front--
where are you taking me?

[grunting]

No, I protest this treatment!

[grunting]

I'm a guest of your lord,
not a prisoner.

Oh, fuck.

This is a mistake!

[both laugh]

[footsteps approaching]

[door slides closed]

[footsteps approaching]

[soft laughter]

[speaking Portuguese]

Amen.

The señor is real?

Who are you?

You are safe here.

Children of my flock.

Persecuted for their faith.

You speak Portuguese yet?

Not Portuguese.

Speak the truth before God.

- I'm English.
- [short chuckle]

The Jesuits put you
here too, then?

Jesuits put you here?

- [man gasping, moaning]
- Oh.

[mumbles]

[man panting]

[speaking Portuguese]

You should let me
give you absolution.

- Are these men
all marked for death?
- [chuckles]

Death is the only
punishment here.

Father, there's been
a mistake, I...

I'm a guest of Lord Toranaga.
I'm not meant to be here.

Toranaga brought you to Osaka?

Yes.

And I must be allowed to leave.

Dear God, you're a child
in the wilderness.

You don't know their games.

Toranaga is a prisoner
in Osaka castle.

Isolated by his rivals
on the Council of Regents.

There's Sugiyama, descended from

the richest samurai family
in Japan.

Ohno, a feared warrior,
whose affliction

of leprosy led him
into the arms of the Church.

And Kiyama, a man
whose faith in Christ

is guided only
by his greed and ambition.

All of them are in
the palm of Ishido,

caretaker of the castle.

Any day now, these men

will vote on Toranaga's demise.

Hear me, my son.

I alone will tell you the truth.

If Toranaga
claimed you as an ally,

you'll never leave Japan alive.

[Ohno clears throat]

Ah.

[Domingo]
Toranaga was born Minowara.

A name that carries
great weight in Japan.

For centuries, his ancestors
dominated this country,

carrying with them
a divine mandate.

Mandate?

A title,
revered through the ages.

The ultimate rank
a mortal can achieve.

Shogun.

And Toranaga--
does he seek this title?

[chuckles] Who knows what lurks
in the heart of a Minowara.

[footsteps approaching]

[Domingo]
Another soul for every hour

- of the day.
- [gate closes]

It's nothing for you
to fear now.

You'll die a martyr.

On the cross, perhaps.

I'm sorry, Father,
I didn't come all this way

around the world
just to die on a cross.

Then why did you?

You came here to wage war.

[scoffs]

I would have stood by you.

I came here in '72,
clutching my rosary,

visions of the souls
I would save.

Then I learned the true
tenets of the cloth:

silk, gold and guns.

These Jesuits care nothing
for their souls.

They've made an idol
of that cursed Black Ship.

That's how they dominate trade.

The Chinese hate Japan.

So all trade goes
through the Portuguese.

It's usury.

The late Taiko even tried
to put a stop to it,

but the Church had
incited the rebellion,

smuggled guns from
that secret base in Macao.

Macao.

Mm.

I met a man who said
he'd been to that fortress,

said there were
Japanese soldiers--

hundreds of them--

all converted to Catholicism.

You're telling me
the lords here don't know?

It's too late for that now.

You don't understand.
I must tell them.

That's my way out.

You can't play their game.

Their rules are too opaque,

their hearts too guarded.

You don't know me.

I've known a thousand of you.

[grunts]

[indistinct chatter]

[Ferreira]
How many different ways I can
tell you I don't give a shit?

Hurry up, let's go!

Fuck!

Ugh.

Come on.

Let's go.

You and Carlos have to get
your stories straight.

He told me you had
the manifest. Fuck off.

On your way
to the castle, Father?

Good morning, Captain.

As you know...

I've had no word.

As soon as Toranaga calls on me

to permit the Black Ship
to depart,

you'll be the first to know.

That's what
I'm worried about, see.

Hearing the old monkey's
not long for this world.

The Church is doing all it can

to keep your business
running on time.

You mean our business.

[clicks tongue]

Cock-sucking prig.

[spits]

[speaking indistinctly]

And which is your
stronger tongue, now--

Portuguese or Latin?

I have more occasion
to practice Portuguese.

But it comes slowly.

To this day,
you remain my best pupil.

Though I must admit my surprise.

Seeing you yesterday,

Toranaga involving you
in his affairs.

[Mariko]
I do not wish
to translate anymore.

I do not like this man,
the way he speaks to you.

You have always
had good instincts

about those with bad intentions.

Lady Maria.

The dark thoughts you have
confessed to me in the past.

Are they still with you?

I trust you know I pray for you.

On this matter and others.

Especially with the heretic.

I've read his journals.

Whatever your heart
tells you about him...

...he is guilty of worse.

♪ ♪

[guard responds]

- [grunts]
- Ah...

[chuckling]

Oh... [chuckles]

[Domingo]
Your confession, say it quickly.

No, this can't be.

I'm not supposed to die here.

The Blessed Virgin
is watching over you now.

Confess before me,
all sins past and present.

You go with your God, Father.

[Blackthorne]
[quietly] Dear Lord,

forgive me my pride.

Let this not be my end.

I beg you.

[arrows whistling]

[shouting]

[arrows whistling]

[screaming]

[grunting]

[screaming]

Oh?

[chortles]

Ah.

Toranaga.

Good morning, señor.

I am to be your interpreter
for today.

You speak Portuguese?

It is my honor
to learn the language

of my Christian teachers.

Catholic teachers.

I serve Yoshii Toranaga-sama.

My name is Toda Mariko.

John Blackthorne.

And you should know
I'm not Catholic.

My lord would like to say
that he is sorry

for the time
you spent in prison.

I'm grateful to be alive.

He asks about your country.

Your rulers and customs.

Just this morning, I was...

set for death and...

and now, um...

I know I am considered...

an enemy, in your country.

But assure you

my queen is wise.

And thoughtful.

And would want to be your ally.

My master asks for you
to draw a map of the world.

Oh.

Thank you.

Um...

This is the limit...

of what I know.

- The earth is round.
- [Mariko translating]

Like a fruit.

Uh, Japan is here.

My country, England...

is on the other side
of the world.

We came by way
of Magellan's Pass.

We are the first outsiders
to use it

because the Spanish
and the Portuguese

kept it secret.

And for us, it was safer
to sail this way.

Because we had to avoid
a Portuguese base

in Macao.

[soft gasps]

It employs Japanese mercenaries.

I'm told you call them ronin.

A secret Catholic fortress,
used for gunrunning.

Employed during an uprising
some years ago.

My master asks that, later,
you write this map

and mark the Portuguese bases.

If I may, I will explain now.

This is the way Portugal and
Spain carved up the New World.

70 years ago,
they signed a treaty

that split undiscovered land
between them.

Your country falls...

...into the Portuguese half.

So it belongs to them.

I'm sorry, sir, but...

I assure you their arrogance
is unbelievable.

Please tell him it's written
into legal documents.

Each Spanish and Portuguese king
has the right to lay claim

to any non-Catholic land
they discover

and to replace its government
with Catholic rule.

This is a lie.

No.

Do you swear by your God?

Yes, I do.

He asks what you seek here.

To vanquish our common enemies.

My master says
you should not war against

the Portuguese in Japan.

You are outnumbered.
It is hopeless.

Unless I win.

his personal quarters.

This is a great honor

I hope you will enjoy.

Is that his?

That battle armor
was ordered specially

by Toranaga-sama
after he saw it in a dream.

Its style goes back
many generations.

All the way
to the Minowara Shogunate.

Shogun.

I wanted to thank you

for translating so honestly
on my behalf today.

No thanks are necessary.

My efforts are in service
of my lord.

How long have you
spoken Portuguese?

14 years.

As long as I've been
a Christian.

Well, you speak very well.

Hm.

These women can assist you
in preparation for your bath.

Uh, thank you, but...

I've already bathed.

Oh. In the prison?

No, in the village.

But that was some time ago.

What, two...

two baths in a week?

What, do you want me
to catch the flux?

Wait, Mariko.

[door slides closed]

I know you hold these priests
in high regard,

but I beg you to consider
their motives.

Your lord is in danger.

And I have a ship.

I would advise against
speaking out of turn.

Yes.

Oh, and...

you will please address me
as Mariko-sama.

[door slides closed]

[sniffs]

[Dell'Acqua]
Martin Alvito has just
received word

from Toranaga.

He's denied our departure papers
for the Black Ship.

This God-cursed heretic
doesn't even have the decency

to ruin us slowly.

Let this be my burden, Father.
