Scenes with Lelouch Lamperouge 56
SFShirley Fenette
I know Kallen said I had it all wrong, but it seemed like she was getting upset in order to fool me.
[holding a telephone] Which is why, in this case, it's best to simply ask him directly. On your behalf, I can ask him how he feels about you.
What?! You'd really do that?!
Just relax. It'll be fine.
[charges towards Suzaku, takes the phone from him, and slams it on the receiver] Are you nuts?! No way!
[meanwhile, Lelouch is in the cockpit of a stolen Sutherland, conducting terrorist operations in the Saitama ghetto]
LLelouch
[looks at his cell phone] Hmm? Oh, whatever.
[back at Ashford Academy, Suzaku and Shirley are fighting over the phone]
Oh, come on, let me handle this for you! I'll be discreet!
I don't want your help, okay?!
[Suzaku and Shirley fumble and drop the phone, and Suzaku falls on top of Shirley; Arthur the cat is also knocked off his perch during the struggle]
[Shirley gasps; Suzaku then grimaces as Arthur bites his hand]
Uh-oh. Does that hurt much?
(Lelouch approaching his father, the Britannian Emperor)
LLelouch
Hail, Your Majesty! My mother the Empress is dead.
You sought an audience with the Emperor of Britannia to simply inform me of that. Send the next one in. I have no time for these childish games.
(Lelouch running to the emperor)
LVLelouch vi Britannia
Father!
(Guards run to stop Lelouch, but Charles raise his hand to halt them)
GGuards
Yes, Your Majesty!
LLelouch
Why didn't you keep Mother out of harm's way? You're the emperor, the greatest man in this nation, if not the world, you should've protected her and now you don't even visit Nunnally!
I've no use for that weakling.
That is what it means to be royalty.
LVLelouch vi Britannia
(angrily) Then I don't want to be your heir, I give up my claim to the throne! (Nobles gasp of what Lelouch is saying) I'm sick of the fighting and scheming over who will succeed you, Father. I've had enough!
CZCharles zi Britannia
You are dead. You were always been dead to me, dead from the moment you were born. Who gave you the fine clothes you wear and comfortable home? The food you eat and your very life? All of those, I have given to you. In short, you are not nothing to me because you have never existed. Yet you dare to speak such foolishness to me?! (Lelouch falls as his father rises from the throne) Lelouch, you are dead, therefore you are not entitled to any rights. I am sending you and Nunnally to Japan, as prince and princess. You will serve well as bargaining tools.
(Lelouch reveals the Black Knights to the world.)
LLelouch (as Zero)
People! Fear us, or rally behind us as you see fit! We are the Black Knights!
Ironic, isn't it? The terrorists referring to themselves as knights?
We of the Black Knights stand with all those who have no weapons to wield…regardless of whether they be Elevens or Britannians! The Japan Liberation Front cowardly took innocent Britannian civilians hostage, and they mercilessly executed them! It was a wanton and meaningless act; therefore, they have been punished…
You heard me right! I said let it run! Liable?! I'll be the one responsible for this!
…just as former Viceroy Clovis was punished for ordering the slaughter of countless unarmed Elevens. We cannot stand by and allow such cruelty to be carried out, and so we made him pay for his actions. I will not repudiate battle on a fair and level field, but neither will I tolerate a one-sided massacre of the weak by the strong. The only ones who should kill are those who are prepared to be killed! Wherever oppressors abuse their power by attacking those who are powerless, we shall appear again, no matter how mighty or formidable our foe may be!
(Thinking.) Knights…for justice?
Those of you with power, fear us! Those of you without it, rally behind us! We, the Black Knights, shall be the ones who stand in judgment of this world!
[Kallen is standing outside the Student Council room]
[yawns] Man, this double life sure is a killer.
[muffled] Come on, Suzaku, hold him down!
LLelouch
[muffled] Damn it, Suzaku, cut it out! [Kallen opens the door to the Student Council room] Stop it! I'm not kidding!
Sorry, Lelouch, but it's the President's orders.
[Kallen finds Nina wearing a hat and sitting at a computer and Suzaku, Shirley, Milly, and Rivalz all dressed in cat costumes and struggling to apply makeup to a visibly defiant Lelouch, who is tied to a chair and struggling to get out]
LLelouch
Yeah, like you're not enjoying this at all?!
[notices Kallen's presence and turns to her] Good "meow"-ning.
Good…morning, I guess. [Lelouch, Suzaku, Shirley, and Rivalz all look at her] What is all this?
RCRivalz Cardemonde
What do you mean? Didn't we tell you? It's our welcome party for Arthur.
[chuckles] Well, classes are postponed. We might as well have some fun, right?
We set some stuff aside for you over here. [points towards a rack of cat costumes and several boxes of accessories] To make up for all my getting upset at you before. Take your pick.
LLelouch
She doesn't need a costume.
LLelouch
[to Kallen] You're already wearing a mask, right?
[sarcastically, to Lelouch] You really are a riot, you know that? You ought to be on television.
[to Shirley] What do you think, Ms. TV Star?
Oh, I thought she meant Lelouch.
[sighs] Would you quit joking about that?! The whole thing's a huge pain in the butt! We've been hounded with questions day and night! Even in the bath!
We haven't been able to leave school grounds in a week!
Not that I don't feel for you, but I don't see why we can't leave either!
Hmm, that's the price of friendship. The Romance of the Three Kingdoms: "It matters not that we were born apart. Upon this day, we die as one."
Is that your idea of a love quote?
If I go down, then we all do.
That's a little dark. Right, Suzaku?
I'm glad… [tears start welling up in his eyes] That we could all be together again… You know, like this?
[jumps over Lelouch] Come on! Hey, we're supposed to be unwinding here! [takes Suzaku down to the ground with him]
[Lelouch, Shirley, and Milly all laugh]
That's what's so refreshing about Suzaku, though.
Yeah, but once in a while, you just want him to get a clue, you know?
[muffled as Rivalz starts pushing on his cheeks] Oh, sorry about that.
Aww, you wuv it, puddy tat!
[everyone starts laughing]
[thinking] It's so funny to think that I helped save their lives.
LLelouch
I am grateful, Lord Kirihara.
TKTaizō Kirihara
Are you embarking on the path of blood?
LLelouch
Indeed, if that is my destiny...
I see. You loved her, didn't you? You must feel terrible.
LLelouch
Right now, I don't know anymore.
Well, the morning always comes again.
I have to say it's funny, I know I came out here for some reason, but I can't remember exactly what it was now. Maybe it's because I already put the whole thing behind me, something I wanted to let go of. Maybe it was something I thought I couldn't forget. Maybe I was full of sadness. But, morning still comes right? That's why you shouldn't hold your thoughts back like that.
LLelouch
Yes, you're right. I feel the same way now, Thanks a lot, for everything
[C.C. falls to her knees after being shot in the arm by Mao]]
I knew it! I knew you couldn't pull the trigger! That's because you really love me, C.C.! [laughs hysterically and claps]
You're wrong! I was just using you right from the start!
What are you saying?! You shouldn't tell lies like that! You really shouldn't! [shoots C.C.] Lies are very, very wicked! Wicked lies! [shoots C.C. four more times] Don't worry! [shoots C.C. once more] I understand! C.C., you must listen to me! I've built a big, brand-new house in Australia! A very quiet, white, immaculate, special house! But to get to Australia, you'll need to take an airplane, and there isn't very much room. [starts walking away from C.C.] The thing is, C.C., you're a little too big to bring on a plane. [picks up a chainsaw] So that's why… [starts up the chainsaw] …I'm going to make you compact! It'll take no time at all! [saws right through a metal signpost, seemingly as if to prove his point]
Is this your revenge? You're punishing me?
Oh, no. I'm not. I'm not, I'm not, I'm not, I'm not at all! [turns towards C.C. and walks towards her] I'm showing you my gratitude!
LLelouch
[via prerecorded message played through Clovisland's television system] So this is the place that you picked.
[Mao turns off his chainsaw as he looks at the screen]
LLelouch
A place where there'd be no one else's thoughts to bother you. That narrowed it way down.
LLelouch
Since your Geass has a total maximum range of 500 meters, it can't reach me here at Tokyo Tower.
[laughs and claps] That's true, that's very true! But what can you do from so far away, hmm? After taking all that trouble to hack into the system, what's your grand plan? A remote-control attack with some battery-operated toys? Or a tongue-lashing to lecture me into submission? [no response from Lelouch] Ah, cat got your tongue now. If you want C.C., then you're gonna have to come--
LLelouch
Mao, think! You don't believe "C.C." is her real name, do you? She never even whispers it to anyone.
[a shocked Mao looks at the screen, then at C.C.]
LLelouch
But I know it, though. She told me her true name.
Is that right, C.C.? You never told me, ever, ever! But you told it to him?!
LLelouch
You know why? Because C.C. is mine. C.C. belongs to me in every possible way.
No! She doesn't! She doesn't, she doesn't, she doesn't! She was mine long before she met you!
LLelouch
I have gained every single thing from her, including all of the parts that you have never seen. All of them.
Lelouch! [starts up his chainsaw again] Face me! [charges towards the screen and starts slashing at it] Lelouch! Come here! Come here so I can look into your mind! I'll see the truth! I'll see what a liar you are! Liar!
LLelouch
Mao. You've lost.
What are you talking about?! [turns off his chainsaw] I don't care! I'm going to be with C.C.!
I have a very special announcement. I am Euphemia, Sub-Viceroy of Area 11 of the Holy Britannian Empire. There is something of great consequence that I wish to tell you all today. I, Euphemia li Britannia, hereby declare the formation of the Specially Administrated Zone of Japan in the area surrounding Mt. Fuji.
LLelouch
What?! Britannia has-?!
They're recognizing... Japan?!
DAMN IT! I never thought of this game! Even though it's only in a limited area!
Within the Specially Administrated Zone of Japan, Elevens will be allowed to call themselves Japanese. Restrictions against Elevens and special rights for Britannians will no longer exist within this zone. It will be a place where Elevens and Britannians live side-by-side as equals.
LLelouch
(thinking) Stop this, Euphie! I already thought through every detail of that scenario, it's nothing but an empty dream!
Do you hear me, Zero? I don't care about your past nor who you are underneath that mask. I beg you, join us in creating the special zone of freedom.
S2Student 2
No way, just think about Prince Clovis!
(enraged) WHAT IS SHE DOING?!!
Zero, help me build a new future within Britannia. A place for everyone!
[after Lelouch agreed with the Admninistrative Zone of Japan] Do you seriously think I'm going to shoot you even if you threaten me?
LLelouch
No, I don't. But no one escapes my commands. I have the power to command anyone as they forcefully obey.
[giggles] Stop it, Lelouch, you're being silly.
LLelouch
I'm serious. If I order you to kill me, shoot Suzaku, or even if I tell you to kill all the Japanese, you will follow me with no hesitation.
[with Lelouch's geass on her] No... N-no, I can't... I d-don't want to kill... W-why...? I-it can't be, I can't... kill... [kneeled down]
LLelouch
[just realized he has activated his geass unknowingly to Euphemia] It can't be! I'm like Mao--I can't control my geass anymore!
LLelouch
No, Euphy! Forget that order!
[Lelouch's geass completely devoured her] That's right, I must kill all Japanese.
ADAndreas Darlton
Princess! Where's Zero?
[to all] To all those who call themselves Japanese, I have a favor to ask! Do you all mind dying?
E1Eleven 1
Is she insane?
E2Eleven 2
She must be out of her mind!
I want you all to just simply fall off the cliff but it's impossible, right? So I order all my fellow Britannians--kill all the Japanese!
DDarlton
What are you saying princess? Please stop this nonsense and-- [Euphemia shoots him]
I'm sorry, but I must do this. I must kill all Japanese. Go ahead, Britannian Soldiers! Hurry and kill every Japanese here!
Euphy! Stop this! [Britannian guards blocked Zero] No, get out of my way... [activated his geass] GET OUT!
See? We need to kill all Japanese. So what are you waiting for? Kill them and don't let a single one alive!
[Kallen has found a Britannian Gloucester, which is now shooting panicking Japanese.]
[inside the Guren Mk-II] Damn Britannian! Stop what you're doing!
[Kallen releases a few missiles, which leaves the Gloucester unarmed.]
[who is the pilot in the unarmed Knightmare] How rude of you! I'm Euphemia li Britannia, the 3rd Princess of the Imperial Palace!
Ah, so this is where you're hiding, Puppet Princess.
Oh, you're the one from Kamine Island!
Why the heck did you fool us?! You just killed a hundred Elevens! Don't you feel any awe or conscience?!
I must kill all the Japanese...
So, that really is it. Fine, I'll finish you now. Any last words?
[As the Guren Mk-II closely aims at Euphemia, Zero and C.C. arrive in the Gawain.]
LLelouch
No, Kallen! I shall be handling the princess on my own.
LLelouch
I believe that would be unnecessary anymore.
[The Gawain swiftly destroys Euphemia's Gloucester, reducing it to a pile of scrap.]
[gets out of the Gloucester and looks around for a gun] Kill the Japanese! I must kill... Hurry, hurry! [She finds a gun and shoots the Gawain in defiant panic. The gun runs out of bullets, so Euphemia looks for extra rounds. As she finds some, Zero gets down from his Knightmare.]
Oh, I thought you were Japanese! Say, Zero, would you like to join me build the Special Administrative Zone of Japan... [realized she's talking different] Um... Japan...?
LLelouch
I would have liked to, Euphemia... together. [He pulls out his gun and aims it at Euphemia.]
[At that moment, Suzaku in the Lancelot catches sight of Euphemia.]
[breathes a sigh of relief] Euphie...
[Zero suddenly shoots Euphemia, the bullet piercing her stomach. Suzaku gasps in horror.]
[dumbstruck as she starts to fall down in slow-motion] Lelouch... Why...?
LLelouch
Farewell, Euphie... you may have been the first girl I ever loved.
[Euphemia hits the ground and lays still. A moment of silence persists before...]
[enraged and anguished] NOOOOOOOOOO!!!
LLelouch
[surprised] Suzaku?!
[Lelouch has turned over command of the G-1 Base to Diethard and is leaving to pilot the Gawain with C.C. when he runs into Kaguya Sumeragi]
LLLelouch Lamperouge
You're Sumeragi's--
KSKaguya Sumeragi
Thank goodness I made it in time! That was so mean of you, the way headed off to battle without me! I've been a huge fan of yours ever since your big debut! I was hoping I'd finally get to talk to you. Wow, you're really tall, aren't you?! Don't worry, though! I'll catch up with you pretty soon!
Lady Kaguya, I thought the heads of the six houses remained in Fuji.
I followed after you so I could watch my future husband fight.
[Lelouch, C.C., and Diethard are puzzled by Kaguya's statement]
LLelouch
Don't joke around.
Well, once you win this battle, you'll eventually need a wife, won't you? I mean, I know your identity is a big secret and all, but you're gonna need somebody as your public face, right?
LLelouch
Really? You believe we're going to win this battle?
Of course! I am the goddess of victory, after all.
LLelouch
I'd be lucky to have you, then. Unfortunately, I've already made a contract with the devil.
LLelouch
I have no room in my life for deities right now.
[Lelouch and C.C. leave for the Gawain as Kaguya looks on]
[Suzaku has just blundered into a trap laid for him by Lelouch, C.C., Sayoko, and Rakshata]
Zero! You deceive the people who trust you to the very end! You betrayer!
LLelouch
Hmph. I've no time to argue which of us is the bigger hypocrite. Farewell, Suzaku Kururugi.
[Two Black Knights searching for Viletta in the Ganymede hangar at Ashford Academy are startled when the Ganymede, rigged with a primitive nuclear bomb, activates]
[cut to the Britannian Government Bureau, where Cornelia is fighting Lelouch and C.C.]
[the Gawain misses an attack on Cornelia's Gloucester, which counters by charging with its lance]
[Cornelia's Gloucester strafes the Gawain with its machine gun as Lelouch desperately types away at the Gawains controls]
LLLelouch Lamperouge
The specs on this thing are far superior to hers!
[the Gawain attempts to take off, only to get snagged by the Gloucesters Slash Harkens; the Gloucester now attempts to latch onto the larger Knightmare]
You're just a weakling! I have you! I have you right where I want you! Your life is now in my hands!
[Cornelia readies the final blow]
[out of nowhere, Cornelia's Gloucester gets impaled by a Knightmare's EM lance]
DDarlton
[via radio] Princess, it's me, Darlton.
[gasps, dumbstruck by Darlton's treachery] Why? Darlton, why?
DDarlton
Don't be afraid. I haven't come to kill you, milady.
LLelouch
Well, he made it.
DDarlton
I've come to deliver you to Zero, Your Highness.
[Darlton suddenly relents as the Geass command placed on him wears off and he sees Cornelia's Gloucester plummeting to the ground]
DDarlton
What have I done?! Why, Princess?!
[Cornelia's Gloucester smashes on the ground]
LLelouch
Thank you, Darlton.
[Lelouch repays Darlton for his service by firing on his Gloucester with the Gawains hadron cannons]
DDarlton
[as his Gloucester is exploding] PRINCESS!!!
[Darlton is consumed in the explosion of his Gloucester.]
[Lelouch has regained his memories and the use of his Geass and is confronting the black-ops forces sent to kill him and C.C.]
LLelouch
Before you dispose of me, I'd like you to answer a question.
[both Lelouch and C.C. stand to face the black-ops soldiers]
BBBritannian black-ops soldier #1
That girl's still alive!
BBBritannian black-ops soldier #2
Impossible! She was shot through the heart!
LLelouch
[starts walking towards the Britannian black-ops soldiers] If being powerless is so terribly wrong, then does having power make you right? Do you find vengeance evil? What's your value of friendship? Is it justice?
BIBritannian intelligence officer
There's no justice or evil. The only truth that's left for you, bait, is the simple reality of death.
LLelouch
I see. Then that reality is all that remains for you as well. I, Lelouch vi Britannia, command you. All of you: Die!
BIBritannian intelligence officer
It--! It can't be!
[the entire Britannian black-ops force is overcome by Lelouch's Geass]
BBBritannian black-ops soldiers
[in unison] Yes, Your Highness!
[the black-ops soldiers all point their rifles and pistols at each other, while the intelligence officer puts his pistol to his neck as he laughs madly; Lelouch looks on as the soldiers all commit suicide]
LLelouch
[thinking] Ever since that day, my heart simply couldn't accept it. This fake life I was never able to fit into, all the time that was lost, these false memories planted in me, giving me a life as one of the herd, and yet…the truth continues to guide me toward itself. That's right! It wasn't me who was wrong! It was the world!
[the Guren Mk-II and Urabe's Gekka smash through the room and land before Lelouch, facing him]
LLelouch
[aloud] The world has to change, so I will change it.
UUrabe
[via his Gekkas loudspeakers] We've been waiting for you, Master Zero. Please, give us your orders.
LLelouch
Very well! Because, after all, I am Zero, the one who will crush the world…and the one who will recreate the world anew!
[a lone Sutherland encounters Lelouch at the massacre site of the Britannian black-ops soldiers]
BPBritannian pilot
What are you doing there? That's a student uniform, isn't it?
LLelouch
Oh! You're a soldier! Thank goodness! We need to help this man at once!
[the Sutherland pilot sees Lelouch kneeling next to the dead Britannian intelligence officer]
BPBritannian pilot
Office of Secret Intelligence? What are the emperor's personal agents doing here?
[the Sutherland pilot deactivates his Knightmare and disembarks]
LLelouch
[thinking] Good. These reports are accurate. Calares's forces don't know about me, so I can use the data in this journal.
BPBritannian pilot
There's only one survivor?
LLelouch
[aloud] Yes. Just you.
LLelouch
[gets up] That's right. [uncovers his left eye, revealing his permanently active Geass] Now: Give me your Knightmare.
BPBritannian pilot
[is overcome by Geass] I understand. The ID code is QR5YK1D6. [gives his key to Lelouch]
LLelouch
[takes the key] Thank you.
[C.C. emerges from her hiding spot behind a nonfunctional Sutherland]
Even though you need direct eye contact, are those theatrics necessary?
LLelouch
I don't need comments from an immortal witch.
