Ando Masahashi quotes from Heroes

Ando

You've always wanted to become a Kendo master.

I studied in Tohoku. So, technically, I'm a Battojutsu master.

Ando

[in Japanese] Why do you always have to correct me?

[in Japanese] Because, there's a difference.

Ando

What difference? You're still a hero. You became everything you wanted to be. And I- - I became dead.

Peter told you?

Ando

[examining Hiro's sword] Looks like you've seen a lot of battles.

More than I like to remember.

Ando

How was it?

Not nearly as fun...without you.

You.

Hiro

Me?

What are you doing here? You're not supposed to be here. None of this is supposed to be here.

Hiro

It was an accident. We time traveled.

Ando

What happened to the city?

The bomb. The bomb still happened. It was all supposed to change. Five years ago a man named Sylar exploded, changing the world forever.

Hiro

I look upset.

Ando

Go. Talk to yourself.

Hiro

No way... I scare me. You do it.

Ando

Is everything alright?

No, let's go fix it.

Hiro

Now the hard part...

Ando

Why are you smiling?

Hiro

It's exciting! This is our chance to change the future.

Ando

But how? How will we know what to do?

Hiro

I have Mr. Isaac's comic book. It's not finished. It only has the pictures, not the words.

Ando

We could be talking about anything.

Hiro

Let's go ask Mr. Isaac. He'll know what we say. (yelled, in English) Don't worry New York! We will save you!

Hiro

He's so sad.

Ando

He's distracted. Go on, do it!

Hiro

I can't kill a man who is asking for forgiveness. It's not in the Bushido code. Everyone deserves a second chance.

Sylar

Hmm, looks like you dropped something. [Sylar picks up a Ninth Wonder cartoon.] A comic book that predicts the future. What will they think of next? [Sylar turns to page showing Hiro stabbing him.] You're kidding. This is how Isaac thought I'd die? Stabbed by a silly little man?

Ando

Hiro is not silly!

Sylar

You should've seen the look on his face when he tried to kill me.

Ando

You cannot take my brain.

Sylar

Please. What would I want with your brain?

Ando

You look bad ass.

Hiro

[smiling] Really?

Ando

(In Japanese) Hiro? Where have you been?

Hiro

(In Japanese) I went to face my father's killer.

Ando

(In Japanese) Well, did you find him? (Hiro nods) Did you kill him?

Hiro

(In Japanese) He can never hurt anyone ever again.

Hiro

What are you doing?

Ando

I'm being awesome!

Hiro

We are searching for a formula that...

Adam

A formula? I knew it'd come back to bite them in the ass one day. Even I told them to destroy it.

Ando

So you know who would steal it?

Adam

Maybe... If I tell you, what's in it for me?

Hiro

When we have finished our mission, I promise to put you in a most spacious cell.

Ando

With a window!

Hiro

And a vent.

Adam

Forget it.

Hiro

Okay, back you go (Squeezes eyes to bend time)

Adam

Wait! (frustrated) You little Japanese Nazi! Let me think! Let's see, off the top of my head, I'd say your villain is Angela Petrelli.

Hiro

She's the one who asked us to find the formula.

Adam

I see. Well then, I'm fresh out of ideas.

Hiro

We are badasses now.

Ando

Yes, we are very badass.

Hiro

Now you know what it's like to be killed by your best friend.

Ando

Okay, now we're even.

Ando

Hiro, I am... at your service. I guess I am the sidekick.

Hiro

The bravest one I know.

Ando

The defense calls Hiro Nakamura to the stand.

Hiro

[aghast] Have you seen "Law & Order"? That always backfires.
