All language subtitles for Shogun-S01E08-English-Subtitles-STAGATV-COM

Previously on Shogun..

We've reached it.
Portugal's secret empire.

- The orders are still on.
- What part of this is still on?

- I must know if my crew is alive.
- Please!

One has been executed.

The rest are prisoners of Lord Yabushige.

The Lady Ochiba's sister,
my daughter-in-law, is in labor.

Or has Lady Ochiba been taken hostage

to guarantee your safety here?

Mother!

You are choosing the wrong ally.

We'll always be their hostages now.

I already received another offer.

Regent…?

Your formal answer, please.

I bow before you.

I will submit to Lord Ishido.

- He has surrendered.
- Behold, the great warlord,

who tricked his own loyal vassals
into a noiseless smothering.

You're all dead.

Cracking his head on stone.

Wasn't a death I'd thought of.

Be sure to record it in our book.

I'd rank it lower than boiling,

but higher than eaten by dogs.

Saeki-sama's army
will camp at Edo's boundary

where they will wait for Toranaga-sama
to mourn his son.

For how long?

The customary 49 days.

And after that?

They will deliver us to Osaka.

Lord…

I am sorry for your loss.

My lord instructed me to
give these to you upon entry to the city.

For the completion of your service.

When we submit to the Council,
you're not required to join us

since you no longer choose
to stand with us anyway.

Fuji-sama will manage
the land until your return.

Though I cannot say how
my lord's successors may deal with you.

Fine strategy he has.

At least Nagakado-sama died fighting.

Your men are here in this city.

The crew from your ship.

You must be eager to be reunited.

And my translator, what becomes of her?

Mariko-sama, don't go to Osaka.

My allegiance forbids me
from doing anything else.

He's surrendered.

Your ruse was a brilliant success.

A great Minowara, meeting his end
at a humble fishing village…

Who would have thought.

He still has his mourning period.

Until his head is pressed to the floor
in submission,

we are not free of his threat.

Perhaps, to strengthen our alliance,

we should make our intentions public.

Our pact is not in doubt.

In the days when I stood
in the Taikō's service,

I was captivated by you.

His favored consort.

Peerless in strength, grace, and courage.

If you saw those things,
it was merely a reflection of our lord.

I revered our lord,

but let us stop pretending he was kind.

We didn't just survive our time,
we made our place here.

I propose we strengthen
our bond through marriage.

What would you say?

The offer is yours to consider.

What's there to be said
about Lord Nagakado…

He was eager to please.

Full of long stories that went nowhere.

Once, he fell from a tree
and broke his arm.

Didn't tell anyone for days.

So they would think he was brave.

He was truly courageous.

At the same time,

he was reckless.

What an embarrassment.

If I may…

It's hard to believe
Lord Nagakado isn't here with us tonight.

He would have enjoyed us

honoring him.

But he's not.

Because our lord has chosen to surrender…

to slice his belly
before that snake, Ishido.

This is something
Lord Nagakado could not accept.

Reckless as he may have been,

his life…

was given to one thing…

the name of his lord.

Lord Toranaga.

Absent from his own son's funeral…

I'm told Lord Toranaga has fallen
very sick from his journey.

So you haven't seen him either?

My nephew's speech last night…

he's just a boy,
but he's right about many things.

Look how his Edo generals wear
their armor in protest.

There are those who haven't yet given up.

Why not march to Osaka
with guns and cannon?

You alone will head to Osaka.

As a condition of our surrender,

Ishido requested you return
the guns and cannons to Osaka.

Her grandfather must be very proud.

Yes, I hope he will be.

His new granddaughter…

Lord Toranaga hasn't come to see her yet?

I've heard he's been in bad health
since his return.

Have you heard from your sister in Osaka?

Only by formal letter.

Assuring me that
after Lord Toranaga bows to Lord Ishido

my family will be spared.

Beyond that, nothing.

You know how Lady Ochiba can be.

Each of us endures in her own way.

Staying hidden is hers.

Lord Buntaro.

Welcome back to Edo.

It's good to be home, Lady Rin.

Lord Toranaga sent word for you
to join him this afternoon.

I understand.

I will leave you.

Please stay.

I do not wish to interrupt.

These are hard times,
this business with Osaka.

I'd like to prepare tea for my wife.
What do you think?

I accept.

But we gave you
firewood yesterday.

Understand, but I don't need firewood.

Looking for, um…

My friend is asking for more firewood.

Please forgive this barbarian's
lack of manners.

Thank you for
your kind attempt at translation, Father.

Alas, you are wrong.

I ask for charcoal.
It gives off better heat.

I must say I am impressed.

You have made your own way out here.

Thank you, Father. Ah!

Lotus tonight. Please.

Except I seem to find Catholics

in every sordid corner of this country.

Like the cacka-rooch.

It was not you I came to Edo for.

I have urgent business with Toranaga-sama.

Strange that you are living out here.

Typically a hatamoto is given residence
within the confines of his lord's castle.

What are your plans
now he has cut you loose?

Well, to start,
I will reunite with my crew.

Get back aboard my vessel.

Then pay a visit to that Black Ship
I've heard so much about.

Tell me, will you wear those clothes
when you see your men?

Ah, yes.

Yes, I intend to.

Thank you, Father.

Lady Maria.

I am so glad to see you are safe.

I only wish it were a happier time.

How is your lord?

I've not seen him
since we returned to the city.

You've heard that Lord Ishido has bent
the Council to his will.

Of course we know this.

Our deal, which we made on the Black Ship…

Our church made its best effort,

but Lords Kiyama and Ohno

would not be swayed to your cause.

Things my spies have already reported…

Have you really come all this way
to tell me that?

Mariko.

From now on,
you will translate for this priest,

as the Church is not our ally

and cannot be trusted
to speak in our tongue.

Lord, if I may…

The Church did not send me
on this mission, Lord.

I have come on my own.

Tsuji says he is not here
on the orders of the Church…

I know these are dire times,
and many in Edo have lost hope.

But not me.

Ochiba no kata has manipulated
Ishido out of hatred for you

and I see no cause for her anger.

Though Ochiba has
no reason to be your enemy,

she controls Ishido.

I cannot change her hatred of me.

Unlike Ishido,
you love the Heir.

If you form an alliance with his mother,

the Heir would be free
to turn against Ishido.

He believes you can forge
an alliance with Ochiba.

And your thoughts?

You wish to hear my thoughts?

I do.

Tsuji has a point.

Why?

Osaka is not our enemy.

Ishido is.

If we align with Lady Ochiba,

Ishido's only path
to power will be removed,

as the Heir's army will become our ally.

You once knew her.

Do you believe, in a thousand years,

Ochiba would ever ally with me?

I don't think you are her enemy.

I think fear is her enemy.

She would sooner have
my head buried in the earth.

What?

Speak.

Your face… has the color of defeat.

Lord, it's not like you.

I…

This victory would come
at too high a cost,

so I choose a peaceful defeat.

Then you are giving up on those

who would never give up on you.

Quiet.

If I wanted your advice
I would have asked for it.

Call my vassals to assembly tomorrow.

I've heard these rumors
about their defiance of my will.

Wearing armor to my son's funeral.

Lord...

My son is dead.

I will have…

no further bloodshed.

I want their signed pledge

that they will march with me in surrender.

Tell the priest I am grateful
for his attempt to change my fate.

Since he kept his promise,

I will keep mine.

He may build a new church here in Edo.

The land has been set aside.

I only have one request.

That he return to Osaka
and tell them what he sees here.

All I want is a peaceful death.

He's going to fight.

How do you know?

Otherwise,
our lord would not send him to Osaka

with a message.

Beauty of Nature.

Winter is ending soon.

Yes.

The scent of plums

detaches from the blossoms and leaves

off into the distance.

My mind is drawn to the distant haze

where the wind carries the detached scent.

Perhaps you would take cha?

It would be my honor.

Your performance was wonderful.

It was only for you.

Despite what my father says

I think we're going to die in Osaka.

Perhaps that's what makes
this tea so meaningful.

I remember our first days together.

We were happy.

I struggle to remember clearly.

Are you still under the Anjin's spell?

Let us go to death tonight.

I wish to finally give it to you.

In protest of our lord's surrender,
and your enemies,

let us welcome death together.

Let us enter oblivion as husband and wife.

Even now you fail to understand.

What you've denied me…

wasn't death.

It was a life beyond your reach.

And I would sooner live a thousand years

than die with you like this.

Your men live in the funayado.

They've been drinking all the saké
in the region for months.

We'll be glad for them to leave.

All of them.

Stinks like Billingsgate at low tide.

Come on. What's wrong?
Come on. Beautiful.

You're my good doxy, you are.

Come back.

Come back. You're beautiful!

Pilot?

John Blackthorne! Is that you?

Hello, Salamon.

How are you?

We'd given you up for dead.

How many of us left?

Six. Barely hanging on.

Right.

Well, I've been given clearance…

for us to return to Erasmus.

I have a few friends.
Good crew we could train.

I've been training some of them
on the cannon already.

To do what?

To help us…

home.

Nah.

Whe... Where does the pilot
want to take us this time?

Maybe Africa? Or back to the Americas?

Since you're here, Pilot,
tell me something.

When we left Santa Maria,

were there really Spanish ships
to the South, to the North of us?

Had to come here?

I just hate to think that we spent
these months wasting away

because our pilot had
ambitions of his own.

First Englishman through the Strait
ready to make his name.

We had orders.

We could have turned home,
and you know it!

Our orders ended when the Captain-General
sent a shot out the back of his head.

That you come to realize that we are here.

What is left of us is because of you.

I'll speak to the rest of the men.

First, take off those skirts.

And we'll, um... We'll careen her.
We'll scrape her.

And the extra men we need,

- you leave that to me.
- I said take them off!

You son of a bitch!

Let's go.

Here's your goddamn, filthy…

Tell him I understand we've had
our differences in the past, him and me.

But now is the time
when my choices are few.

While he regrets that
he has no choice in the matter,

he's come to you out of desperation.

What does he want?

I once offered to sail
for Toranaga-sama against his enemies.

Now he is determined to die.

Fine.

Fate.

I now wish to forge allegiances

benefiting this country
economically and strategically.

I still have my ship.

I can train a crew.

I just need a new banner to sail under.

You wish to sail
on Yabushige-sama's behalf?

I don't wish it. He is a shit face.

But he is a brave shit face.
And that is the truth.

So, I must ask.

He believes our lord will soon die,

and wishes to sail for you.

I think he calculates, unwisely,

that you wish not to join
Lord Toranaga in Osaka.

This is disgraceful.

My nephew is right.

I refuse.

Yabushige-sama
politely declines your request.

The Anjin is wrong to think
Lord Toranaga has given up.

I don't know what the old man is up to,

but it's not surrender.

Even Yabushige-sama stands
with Toranaga-sama.

- Only you waiver.
- Then let me explain again.

There is no explaining treachery,
especially against your sworn lord.

I am free of any obligations to him.
He has made that very clear.

If he were in my position,
he would do the same.

This weapon is not mine.

To tell you the truth, I feel embarrassed
wearing it most of the time.

Perhaps there existed
a... a moment in which

I had fooled myself into believing that
I could one day belong to this place,

but that moment is leagues behind me.

He says that he knows
he doesn't belong in Japan.

Having said that…

own people

seem

…strange.

I don't know where that leaves me,

but I do know that now I'm left to whittle
what fate I can for myself.

He believes he has
no choice but to make his own fate.

Since I first saw you near death

on that cliff many months ago,

I've known you were a man
who understood the importance

of taking fate into his own hands.

He recalls the time
you were close to death on a cliff.

He believes you also know what it means

to control your own fate.

Tell him that since he is a foreigner,
I will overlook his mistake.

I would never betray our lord.

We've been called to the castle
to sign our obeisance to him,

and that is what I intend to do.

He refuses your offer.

Says it is betrayal of our lord.

You see, once loyalty begins,
it does not have an end.

Otherwise, it would not be loyalty.

But loyal turns senseless very quickly
when the order is suicide.

Would you like me to translate that?

Or was it for me?

The main gates. Here.

My tea house will be here…

We'll make a room for Kiku
in a separate house.

I see nothing here.

It's an idea she chased all her life.

It must be beautiful to finally see it.

It was your hard work
that earned this for her.

Serving my mistress

is my greatest pride.

Do you think loyalty could ever be
a disservice?

Or even a harm?

No.

I don't know
what I'm fighting for anymore.

If you look and see nothing…

you must simply look harder.

Lord Toranaga was very generous
to grant you this plot.

It's among the best in the city.

Who is that over there?

Your neighbors.

I'm told they are courtesans.

Courtesans…

Good morning, Lady Daiyoin.

I have tea and your favorite sawara today…

Someone find a doctor!

It was a stroke
early this morning.

All we can do is make her comfortable.

I knew it would be
this face to send me off.

All of your strength. And sadness.

You must stop these games.

Promise to release the hostages.

Ishido comes from nothing,
and he is nothing.

How about some medicine to ease your pain,
Lady Daiyoin?

Tell our son to look for me
in the Pure Land…

Look what I made…

Tomorrow, Yabushige will leave for Osaka.

In addition to delivering my guns
to Ishido,

he will submit the names of those
who will join me in surrender.

I now require your signatures
on this list.

Lord…

we are unable to accept
what must be a ploy.

There is no such trickery.

Forgive us, Lord…

we cannot follow you
on this path to defeat.

You refuse your duty?

Our duty is to advise you.

If you stay in Edo,
Ishido will be forced to fight us here.

He will destroy this city.

Let him try.

Which is more important?

Survival of our clan, or Japan?

My fight is decided.

Lord…

if you will not change your mind

then I will

commit seppuku at once.

Do you all doubt your allegiance to me?

Traitors should confess at once!

If you surrender to Osaka

it is treason against your heritage...

Quiet!

This is between me and Lord Toranaga.

My one and only friend.

Lord…

I have

stood by your side
since you were a piss-dripping boy.

Then die by my side in Osaka.

You are throwing away
all that we have fought for.

I have made my decision.

Now you must make yours.

So you do believe in pointless death.

Lord!

Your vassal dies in vain!

Then die.

Lord!

Please stop this…

He has set his mind against me.

I will not yield.

Lord Toranaga…

Then this is farewell.

Buntaro, bring my sword and second me.

I'm following you into death.

No.

Father…

please…

You must live.

You will know what it is to be denied.

Do not give up on our lord.

Even when it appears
he has given up on himself.

Now second me.

Lord Toranaga!

This is madness!

Stop this!

Forgive me…

I beg your pardon.

Do you disagree
with what happened today?

Today we all suffered great loss.

I won't deepen the wound by disagreeing.

The sound of rain on the leaves

can be heard.

Still more fragile

is the dew of tears on my sleeves

even in springtime.

Waiting, the pine tree

never withers in winter.

If I could use words

like scattering flowers
and falling leaves,

what a bonfire my poems would make.

I concede victory, Mariko.

Your poetry was always superior.

Tell me…

has the Anjin gone to Yabushige yet?

Yes.

But Lord Yabushige refused.

He'll change his mind after today.

Hiromatsu made sure of it.

The Anjin and Yabushige are both goshawks.

Short-winged and predictable.

Then…

Lord Hiromatsu…

Hiromatsu…

my old friend…

knew his duty well.

Osaka has to believe my defeat is real.

Now are you ready to do your part?

I'm ready.

Hurry! Hurry!

Be quick.

What are you doing?

Hurry it up!

Yes…

If Lord Toranaga finds out
you've aligned with the Anjin…

I won't die on behalf of a crazy old man.

But the Anjin is dangerous.

Uncle!

What do you want?

Take care.

What you said the other day…

it meant a great deal to me.

Allies.

You…

…and me.

Allies.

Allies.

We're allies.

Someone's coming.

Lord Toranaga has requested
I accompany you to Osaka.

Thank you, my son.

You earned me some time.

I will not waste it…

Hiromatsu and you, both.

I will not waste it.
