Mao quotes from Code Geass

Shirley

Lulu, how could you do this?

Mao

Yes, how could he?

Mao

[claps] A very fine memorial. Isn't that right, Ms. Shirley Fenette?

Mao

He's a cruel man, isn't he? Lelouch.

Shirley

How do you know about Lulu?

Mao

Aw, he deceived you. Never told you he's Zero.

Shirley

[gasps and drops her bag] Who are you?! What do you want?!

Mao

The same mouth that ordered your father's death stole a kiss from your tender lips. He's a very bad man, and you like it. [Shirley shudders as he walks towards her] Punishment must be measured out, to him…and to you.

Shirley

To me?

Mao

I know everything. All that happened that night.

Viletta

Is that Zero?

Viletta

Well, well, what a shocker. The student is Zero himself. A Britannian? [laughs evilly before letting go of Lelouch's hair] When I bring him to Viceroy Cornelia, she'll make me a noble! Not just a knight of honor, real nobility! And he's still alive, too! What kind of grand execution will they have in store for him. [stands up to face Shirley] Of course, you'll be rewarded too--

Viletta

Stupid of me. He's your boyfriend, isn't he?! [charges towards Shirley]

Shirley

Lulu! [guns down Viletta]

Mao

So you're a killer, too. Just like Zero.

Shirley

[gasps] No! That's not true! I just--

Mao

And you actually used your father's death for your own gain.

Shirley

[gasps again] No! I just-- I just--

Mao

Cunning little woman. You knew he'd feel sorry for you, didn't you, so you played it for all it was worth.

Shirley

No! You're wrong!

Mao

Did his sympathy make you all tingly?

Shirley

Stop it!

Mao

Playing the tragic heroine again?

Shirley

No, I'm not doing that!

Mao

A girl who kills and then goes fishing for attention? Only evil witches do that.

Shirley

I didn't-- I never meant--

Mao

[walks even closer to Shirley] You knew there was another girl who liked Lelouch, and you wanted to get him away from her. [Shirley gasps once more] Now you have to pay the price, Shirley.

Mao

Do you want to carry these feelings around for the rest of your life? All by yourself? [starts clapping] Unless you atone and completely free your heart, you and Lelouch will both be lost in your sins, forever.

Mao

[is riding on the carousel] C.C., your mind is so quiet! It's the only one I can't read! You really are the best there is!

C.C.

As childish as ever, I see.

Mao

I'm a prince on a white stallion…and a prince has to rescue the princess! [gets off the carousel and laughs] Does that make you happy, C.C.?

C.C.

Mao, we talked about this before. I told you that you and I--

Mao

Those were all lies! Lies! C.C., you love me, and this is how I know. [takes off his headphones]

Thank you, Mao. Mao! Mao.

C.C.

Stop it!

Mao

BE QUIET!!!

C.C.

Don't listen to them. Just listen to the sound of my voice. That's it. Since my mind is the only one you can't read, and you can only be happy when you're with me, I will stay with you always. Yes…I'm right here, so you don't need to worry.

Mao

C.C., you're the only one! The only one I want, forever! Lelouch doesn't matter at all! [walks towards C.C.] If you'll just come with me--

C.C.

Stop it! [knocks Mao's headphones away and pulls a gun on him] I should have done this a long, long time ago.

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]

C.C.

You're wrong! I was just using you right from the start!

Mao

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]

C.C.

Is this your revenge? You're punishing me?

Mao

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!

[via prerecorded message played through Clovisland's television system] So this is the place that you picked.

A place where there'd be no one else's thoughts to bother you. That narrowed it way down.

Mao

Lelouch?

Since your Geass has a total maximum range of 500 meters, it can't reach me here at Tokyo Tower.

Mao

[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--

Mao, think! You don't believe "C.C." is her real name, do you? She never even whispers it to anyone.

But I know it, though. She told me her true name.

Mao

Is that right, C.C.? You never told me, ever, ever! But you told it to him?!

You know why? Because C.C. is mine. C.C. belongs to me in every possible way.

Mao

No! She doesn't! She doesn't, she doesn't, she doesn't! She was mine long before she met you!

I have gained every single thing from her, including all of the parts that you have never seen. All of them.

Mao

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!

Mao. You've lost.

Mao

What are you talking about?! [turns off his chainsaw] I don't care! I'm going to be with C.C.!

Hmph.

Mao

You think you've beat me, huh?!

Suzaku

[grabs Mao] Stop it!

Mao

Get your hands off of me, father-killer!

Mao

You killed your father seven years ago. Heh. He called for do-or-die resistance, and you thought stopping him would end the war. What a childish idea. The fact is, you're a murderer!

Suzaku

That's not true! I just-- I--

Mao

How lucky for you that no one ever found out. All the adults lied to protect you.

But all the reports said his suicide was a protest against the military actions.

Mao

A big, fat lie, all of it!

A lie?

Suzaku

I didn't have any choice! If I didn't, Japan would have--

Mao

That's how you justify it in retrospect? Well, it explains your death wish! [Suzaku gasps] You want to save people's lives? It's your own wretched soul you're trying to save! That's why you're always charging into danger, placing yourself on the edge of death!

Mao

You're no hero! You're just trying to wash the blood off your hands! A little brat begging to be punished!

MAO!!! [activates Geass] NEVER SPEAK AGAIN!!!

Mao

What-- No!

Mao!

C.C.

I did love you, Mao.

C.C.

Mao, I want you to go and wait for me…in C's World. [puts a silenced pistol to Mao's neck and fires, killing him]

Suzaku

I just… I just…
