- Moritoo Endô: Brother, please don't be a traitor. This isn't you.
- Moritada: I know what I'm doing. What good will it do for you to serve Kyomori?
- Moritoo Endô: I don't know. Once you serve him though, he's your master forever. How can you betray him in his absence?
- Moritada: It's not cowardice. It's shrewd stratagy. I'm sorry to tell you Kiyomori won't be coming back.
- Moritoo Endô: How can a pack of mutts defeat the Taira Clan?
- Kesa: [after Moritoo grabs her in a strong embrace] What are you doing?
- Moritoo Endô: You refuse no matter what?
- Kesa: Yes.
- Moritoo Endô: Then I'm ready. You're mine now!
- Kesa: No matter what you say, female virtue won't allow it.
- Moritoo Endô: Drop your husband. Leave Wataru.
- Kesa: I can't do that.
- Moritoo Endô: Why can't you? I, Moritoo, will slay Wataru. I won't stop with Wataru. If needed, your aunt too. I might have to kill you too!
- Kesa: [the camera moves in for an intense close-up of Kesa] Are you ready to do all that? Do you want me that much?
- Moritoo Endô: I want you. I can't live without you. What do you say? Can't you grant my wish? Eh? Why don't you answer? Do you want Wataru, yourself, and your aunt all dead? Kesa! It all depends on your answer now.
- Kesa: Maybe my behavior was improper. Maybe that way why he was so unreasonable. It lies heavy on my heart.
- Wataru Watanabe: It appears that wild warrior can appreciate your beauty. You're my precious wife. I won't let Morito even point a finger at you.
- Wataru Watanabe: I shall have a drink. It's been a while. You drink, too.
- Kesa: Yes and when I'm drunk, I'll pester you for many things.
- Kogenta: I remember you had a wish.
- Gen Kiyomori: Yes, sir. I'd like an Eight Battle sword and your favorite doll.
- Kogenta: Good. An unusual wish, but you shall have them.
- Wataru Watanabe: It may well be over for you if your head is lopped off. But, I'll be left alive. What am I to do?
- Kesa: Let me hear what you want.
- Moritoo Endô: Tonight is the night I want you to hear what's in my heart.
- Kesa: It's fruitless for me to listen.
- Moritoo Endô: Lady Kesa, I'll throw away everything. You'll be the only one for me. Respond to what's in my heart.
- Kesa: You're disgracing yourself.
- Wataru Watanabe: Do you know how a wife can please her husband? It's when she trusts him with everything. Why didn't you trust me?
- Kakisuke: Sanjo Palace is now at peace. The enemies have taken both His and Her Majesty somewhere.
- Moritoo Endô: What?
- Kakisuke: Counselor Shinzei's head is on display at the Gate of Hell.
- Wataru Watanabe: Retain your composure, no matter who says what. Drop your guard and people will pounce.
