AMERICA'S FIRST COUNCIL GENERAL WENT TO JAPAN.

AH, THAT WAS THE HONORABLE TOWNSEND HARRIS, MANY YEARS AGO.

UH, 1856. UH, HE SAID YOUR PEOPLE SURE SEEM STRANGE TO HIM.

I COULD SAY SAME THING. WAYS OF WESTERN PEOPLE VERY

DIFFERENT.

YEAH, I GUESS THEY ARE. BUT YOU KNOW-- WELL, THE WAY YOU AND

SOTO ARE-- I MEAN, HE'S YOUR SERVANT BUT...BY SEEING THE 2 OF

YOU TOGETHER YOU--YOU JUST THINK THAT YOU WERE GOOD

FRIENDS.

HONORABLE SERVANT SOTO, DEAREST FRIEND TO HEART. WOULD

LAY DOWN LIFE FOR ONE SUCH AS SOTO. WHEN HIKARU VERY SMALL,

SOTO COME AS SERVANT, ALSO AS TEACHER. SOTO, MOST ABLE

INSTRUCTOR, VERY PRECISE. WHEN HIKARU BUT BOY OF 10 YEARS,

ALREADY KNOW HOW TO JUJITSU. ONE DAY, THROW SOTO OVERHEAD, SOTO

VERY SURPRISED.

JUJITSU, I'VE HEARD OF THAT.

ISN'T THAT SOME FORM OF WRESTLING?

IS MEANS OF SELF-DEFENSE, VERY PRECISE, MOST EFFECTIVE.

BUT WRESTLIN' IS WRESTLIN', ISN'T IT?

NOT QUITE. BEFORE DEPARTURE, PERHAPS SOTO CAN HAVE

OPPORTUNITY TO TEACH YOUNG ONE SIGNS OF JUJITSU.

OH, THAT'D BE GREAT!

MARK, UH, DON'T YOU THINK IT'S BEEN A...LONG DAY?

I KNOW, PA, AND...I'VE GOT CHORES TO DO IN THE MORNIN'.

NIGHT, MR. HIKARU.

WHAT YOU'VE GOT THERE, BOY?

LEMME HAVE A TASTE OF THAT, THAT LOOKS REALLY FANCY.

OH, NO, NO. THAT'LL FIX THAT.

DO THAT TIE, FRIEND, YOU CAN'T SERVE NOTHING LOOKING LIKE THAT.

WHOOP! HEY, VIC, TRY THIS.

NO, PLEASE, IS WRONG. NO, NO, PLEASE, I'M A SERVANT.

NOW, BOY, THERE AIN'T NOTHING WRONG IN HAVING A LITTLE FUN.

THE FUN'S OVER, TORPIN.

GET OUT OF HERE. TORPIN, I-- WAIT. MR. MCCAIN, WITH YOUR

PERMISSION-- I REGRET SHAMEFUL DISTURBANCE

OF HONORABLE ONE.

YOU'RE MOST FORTUNATE MY SERVANT RESPECT PRESENCE OF

MASTER, MYSELF, AND NOT STRIKE BACK. WOULD BE MOST EMBARRASSING

FOR YOU.

HIM FIGHT US?! OH, YOU MUST BE KIDDING.

HIKARU YAMANAKA NOT MAKE JOKE. YOU HAVE CAUSED SERVANT TO

LOSE FACE. TO DO SO IS TO CAUSE MASTER TO LOSE FACE AND

HONOR AS WELL. MUST RESTORE HONOR.

OH, WHAT'S HE TALKING ABOUT?

DEMAND SATISFACTION.

HEY, YOU KNOW THAT SOUNDS MAYBE LIKE YOU'RE TRYING TO CALL

US OUT.

CHOICE OF WORDS, NOT CLEAR.

I MEAN YOU WANNA TAKE US ON.

[SHOUTS] YOU WANNA FIGHT!

AH, MOST PRECISELY.

WELL, NOW, HOW? WITH GUNS OR WITH OUR HANDS TIED BEHIND OUR

BACK?

USE GUN OR HAND, I AM SAMURAI WARRIOR. USE SAMURAI SWORD.

WHAT?

USE SWORD. MUST PREPARE.

PLEASE EXTEND APOLOGIES TO MISS.

MALLORY. CANNOT HAVE DINNER.

DO YOU KNOW WHAT KIND OF SWORD HE SAY?

SAMURAI.

[KNOCKING ON DOOR] [KNOCKING ON DOOR]

Lucas: HIKARU? HIKARU?

YES, MR. MCCAIN?

I'D LIKE TO SPEAK TO MR. YAMANAKA.

HONORABLE MASTER IN MEDITATION. OFFER PRAYER TO

ANCESTOR, PRAYER THAT HE BE HONORABLE AND FEARLESS IN

BATTLE.

WELL, THAT'S WHAT I WANNA TALK ABOUT, SOTO. THERE'S NOT

GONNA BE ANY BATTLE.

PLEASE, MR. MCCAIN.

DO NOT DISTURB.

HIKARU, LET ME TALK TO YOU.

HIKARU?

LOOK, YOU TELL HIM THOSE 2 MEN ARE WAITING DOWNSTAIRS. THEY'VE

GOT GUNS THEY KNOW HOW TO USE.

IF HE GOES OUT THERE WITH A SWORD, HE WON'T HAVE A CHANCE,

IT'LL BE SUICIDE.

DIE IN DEFENSE OF HONOR IS TO DIE OF HIGH HONOR.

MOST ACCEPTABLE.

MAYBE IN JAPAN, BUT NOT IN NORTH FORK--

PLEASE...MR. MCCAIN, DO NOT INTERFERE. PRAYER MUST NOT BE...

INTERRUPT. PLEASE.

ALRIGHT, SOTO.

AH!

YES, SIR. "DEMAND SATISFACTION."

THAT'S WHAT THE MAN SAID. BUT THEN HE GOES RUNNING UP THEM

STAIRS WITH HIS LITTLE FLUNKY TRAILING ALONG BEHIND HIM.

I THINK WE SCARED 'EM.

OH, HO-HO.

I'LL BET THEY'RE SITTING UP THERE IN THEIR ROOM SHAKING IN

THEIR BOOTS. IF THEY WEAR BOOTS.

WELL, IF THEY WEAR BOOTS, I'LL WAGER THEY'VE TAKEN THEM

OFF, RIGHT NOW, SO AS THEY CAN SNEAK OUT OF TOWN WITHOUT BEING

HEARD.

TORPIN.

NOBODY'S LEAVING TOWN, 'CEPT YOU.

HOW'S THAT, MARSHAL?

ALRIGHT, OUTSIDE.

NOW, WAIT A MINUTE, WE AIN'T BOTHERING NOBODY.

YOU'RE BOTHERING ME, AND I WANT YOU OUT OF TOWN RIGHT NOW.

I DON'T WANT YOU BACK UNTIL I SAY SO.

WHEN WILL THAT BE? WHEN THE FELLOWS AT THE HOTEL DONE

AND GONE AWAY?

THAT'S ABOUT IT.

WELL, BOYS, WHAT DID I TELL YOU? THEM FELLAS ARE SO SCARED,

THEY HAD TO GET MCCAIN AND THE MARSHAL HERE TO RUN AS OFF SO

THEY WOULDN'T GET HURT.

ALRIGHT, THEN...LET'S GO.

ALRIGHT, MCCAIN, IN JUST A MINUTE.

ALRIGHT, MCCAIN, IN JUST A MINUTE.

RIGHT, KEEP GOING.

WHAT IS THAT?

HONORABLE MASTER, WARRIOR OF THE SAMURAI, IS NOW READY!

HYAH!

HYAH!

[GROWLS] AAH!

AAH!

YAH! WAH! NOW YOU DIE!

WHY YOU-- LET THE GUN ALONE, TORPIN.

WHAT'RE YOU TALKING ABOUT!

HE'S TRYING TO KILL US!

ONE OF US MUST DIE.

WHY? BECAUSE THEY ROUGHED UP SOTO? I DON'T THINK HE'D WANT

YOU TO LOSE YOUR LIFE BECAUSE OF THAT.

MUST REGAIN HONOR.

I APPRECIATE HOW YOU FEEL, HIKARU, BUT I--

WHY DON'T YOU REGAIN IT THE WAY YOU LOST IT?

WHAT'D YOU MEAN?

WELL, HIKARU HERE DOESN'T HAVE A GUN AND IT'S OBVIOUS YOU

DON'T HAVE A SWORD. WHY DON'T YOU PUT YOUR WEAPONS DOWN AND...

JUST FIGHT IT OUT?

YOU MEAN, THE TWO OF US AGAINST HIM?

YOU ARE AFRAID?

AFRAID? YES, I'M AFRAID OF WHAT WE MIGHT DO TO YOU.

THEN PERHAPS MIND BE AT EASE IF I'M JOINED BY SERVANT.

I SAID, WOULD WELCOME OPPORTUNITY TO TEACH LESSON.

WELL, 2 AGAINST 2, THAT'S A LITTLE OF MORE EQUAL.

YOU ACCEPT?

ANYTHING YOU SAY.

PLEASE, TO HOLD, MR. MCCAIN?

TAKE THE GUN BELTS OFF.

WE ARE READY.

WELL, I SURE AM GONNA HATE DIRTYING UP ALL THAT PRETTY

WHITE LAUNDRY.

HOLD IT!

QUITE ALRIGHT, MR. MCCAIN.

FEEL BETTER NOW. HONOR RESTORED. IS NOT SO, SOTO?

IS SO, HONORABLE ONE.

BE WATCHFUL NOW.

SORRY. OH, BUT YOU PLAY EXCELLENT GAME. OH, I DON'T

THINK I CAN WIN AGAIN.

GEE, MR. SOTO, YOU'RE PROBABLY ABOUT THE BEST CHECKER

PLAYER THAT EVER WAS SEEN IN NORTH FORK.

SOTO TOO MODEST TO TELL YOU.

AT THE IMPERIAL PALACE, HE WAS CHAMPION.

GOSH!

[SPEAKS JAPANESE] [REPLIES IN JAPANESE]

CIGAR? MR. SOTO?

MR. MCCAIN, YOU AND YOUR SON HAVE BEEN VERY KIND TO US. WE

ARE 2 STRANGERS FROM A FOREIGN LAND, AND YET YOU HAVE BEEN OUR

FRIENDS. YOU HAVE INVITED US INTO YOUR HOME.

SOTO?

WHEN HONORABLE HIKARU WAS LITTLE BOY, HIS ILLUSTRIOUS

FATHER GAVE HIM THIS. IT IS TO REMIND THEM THAT EVEN WHEN

FAMILY IS NOT TOGETHER, THEY CARRY EACH OTHER, IN THEIR

HEART. IT'S FOR YOU, FROM IMPERIAL ONE.

WELL...THANK YOU, MR. HIKARU, MR. SOTO. I SURE WON'T EVER

FORGET YOU. SAY, PA, IS IT ALRIGHT IF MR. SOTO GIVES ME MY

JUJITSU LESSONS NOW?

WELL, IF HE DOESN'T MIND.

OH, HERE, COULD YOU HOLD THIS FOR ME, PA?

YOUR SON HAS GREAT LOVE AND RESPECT FOR YOU, MR. MCCAIN.

SOMETHING HIKARU MISS AS A BOY.

HIKARU'S FATHER VERY WONDERFUL MAN, BUT VERY BUSY AT THE

IMPERIAL PALACE. HOME NOT WARM, SIMPLE LIKE THIS.

YOU'LL BE GOING HOME SOON?

FROM HERE, HIKARU PLAN TO GO TO SOUTH AMERICA. WILL

RETURN HOME INSTEAD. THIS TIME OF YEAR, RESPECTED FATHER TRAVEL

TO SUMMER HOME FOR TIME OF MEDITATION. WILL JOIN HIM THERE.

IT WILL HIM GREAT PLEASURE.

IT WILL GIVE ME GREAT PLEASURE, TOO.
