At times the life of a single man is worth more than that of a million, I thought that'd be common sense to a soldier.
TTohdoh
You dare say that here?
Oh, alright, then I'll tell you, he's very much alive.
TTohdoh
We have no time for your wishful thinking.
The information's true. I simply know it.
Oh, you're an oracle now? I told you to shut your trap and to get some training on a Knightmare, you dumbass!
Dumbass? Oh really? It's been ages since anyone's dared to refer to me in such a rude manner.
Like Zero's mistress has any right to get uppity with us.
I said you were wrong, you are a man who only has vulgar ideas.
[Tamaki, Chiba, Ohgi, and Tohdoh have been imprisoned for their involvement with the Black Knights; Tamaki has just been assaulted by two Britannian prison guards]
[growls as he gets back up] If Zero was here, you wouldn't be acting so tough!
CChiba
Do me a favor! Don't say that traitor's name again!
Hey, Zero didn't betray us!
BPBritannian prison guard
Shut up, you stinking Eleven! [hits Tamaki with the butt of his rifle]
There has to be a reason for what he did.
CChiba
What reason?! Why'd the commander vanish during the final decisive battle like that?!
TTohdoh
Stop it! It serves no purpose. Zero's dead, after all.
What?! A political marriage?!
Yes. I've received an invitation to the wedding from the Sumeragi conglomerate. The bride is to be the empress, icon of the Chinese Federation. I'm her good friend and she wants me to attend.
TTohdoh
And the groom is to be the First Prince of Britannia.
That one they call Odysseus.
[Lloyd is despairing over the theft of the Guren S.E.I.T.E.N.]
You thieves! That's mine, all mine!
Oh, not quite! I did some of the upgrades, remember?
Oh, right, it's actually a collaboration. Oh, what am I talking about?! With a capable devicer, even at 60% output, that unit can cut the other Knightmares to ribbons!
[Meanwhile, Rakshata is indignant over Lloyd and Cécile's tampering with the original Guren Mk-II.]
That's the Earl of Pudding's work and Cécile's energy wings! How dare they, altering my Guren without my permission!
Still, now that we've got Kallen back in the combat zone…
TTohdoh
…it will even up the battle!
[The Black Knights put Zero and Kallen at gunpoint]
CChiba
How dare you try to run a con game on us?
We know everything about your Geass power!
[Lelouch, under the mask, is horrified about what they know]
Zero, the renowned hero, died in battle before he could triumph, but his gallant life and daring deeds will continue to live on in myth and legend.
Is that the script you've written for me, Diethard?
Actually, I wanted to film your brilliant campaign and glorious victory over Britannia, but I'm afraid that show's been permanently cancelled.
[thinking] What do I do? Knightmares are beyond my reach, but Ohgi and the others are defenseless. If I can use my Geass secretly...
MMinami
Everybody trusted you, Zero.
SSugiyama
Inoue and Yoshida sacrifice their lives for you.
Wait a minute! This is all one-sided! Look at how far we've come because of Zero. At least let him answer!
You're in the way, Kallen!
SSugiyama
Do you want to die with Zero?
MMinami
Don't tell me he used his Geass on you, too?
I need an answer, Lelouch. What do I mean to you? I have to know. If I could stay with you, I would. Please.
(thinking) Schneizel! You made your move and now you're calling check. There's no way out of this for me. It's over!
Please answer me, Lelouch.
(laughing) Fools! You finally figured it out. That I've been using you all along. That's right. You're all just pawns in my game.
Zero, so you really are...
Kallen. You were my most useful piece. Much like a well-played knight. This whole world was the board for the game, and all for my entertainment.
I see. Goodbye then, Lelouch.
[whispering] Kallen, you have to live.
[in Zero's absence, the Britannian forces have managed to rally and push back the Black Knights]
CDClaudio Darlton
Hold your ground! Victory's within our reach! Be strong!
NCNagisa Chiba
Damn it, we can't hold out!
SAShōgo Asahina
Enemy reinforcements will be here soon!
KSKento Sugiyama
What should we do?!
[Sugiyama watches Inoue's Burai get shot and explode, killing her]
SSugiyama
Inoue? Ugh, where the hell is he?! [fires the machine gun of his Burai into the air in vain] Zero!
GGGilbert G.P. Guilford
All forces, charge! We'll smash these filthy rebels with one blow!
[Tohdoh's custom Gekka attempts to slice through the Britannian offensive]
TTohdoh
Fight to your last breath! Stop at nothing! Because if they break through here, our forces will collapse completely!
[meanwhile, Diethard's forces have been forced to retreat to Ashford Academy]
[thinking] It's not that Tohdoh isn't a brilliant military leader. He simply lacks the incredible charisma that Zero possesses. We need him! He can't run out on us, not now!
[Kaguya has been left to look after the G-1 on the outskirts of the Tokyo Settlement]
[thinking] Oh, Zero, have you really abandoned us? Have you abandoned Japan?!
