"FEMALE PRISONER #701 SCORPION" " GRUDGE SONG" ""Flowers are beautiful" - "i"his words flatter you today" "But once you're in full bloom, he'll just toss you away" "Foolish, foolish, foolish woman's song..." "Her song of vengeance." ""Sorrow is my fate" - "i"so you've given up on men" "Show him your tears and he'll bring you grief again" "Tearful, tearful, tearful woman's song..." "Her song of vengeance." "A bright red rose has thorns that you might not see" "I don't want to pierce you, but how else will I get free?" "Burning, burning, burning woman's song..." "Her song of vengeance." "What's going on?" "What do you think you're doing?" "What's going on?" "Nami Matsushima!" "You're under arrest for first degree murder and breaking out of prison." "Don't let her get away!" "Don't let her get away!" "Scorpion... we've captured you at last." "Do you know how much time we spent looking for you how many cops we had to mobilize?" "But you're finished now, once and for all." "Now I can finally send you to the gallows." "I'm sure Detective Sugimi and the other cops you killed are waiting down there in hell." " What the hell are you doing?" " Goddamn you!" "Hey!" "Are you all right?" "Hey!" "Hang on!" "That bitch!" "Go after her!" "What happened?" "Are you all right?" "That's it!" "Keep going, now!" "Not enough power in your hips!" "Hey, mister..." "I hear you're a woman-hater." "I'm going to fix that for you." "Wait, your thing... it's all messed up..." "Thank you, thank you!" "Thank you very much, that's it for tonight!" "Get some sleep, now." "Hey, where've you been?" "We're ready to start the show." "Eat something." "You'll feel better." "Okay, I'll see you later." "Years ago... this used to be our hideout." "Why did I help you?" "I'm not sure myself." "These are "souvenirs" from the cops." "Whenever I'm in pain from these old wounds I come here and shoot at the cops." "No one will ever find this place." "You'd better stay here until you've recovered." "What the hell's going on?" "We're not doing anything illegal!" "Hold on a minute!" "Hold on!" "Kudo, right?" "Kudo... it's been a long time." "Don't worry." "We're not here to arrest you today." "Tell me." "Where are you hiding the woman?" "I see..." "So you're going to play dumb, are you?" "Chief!" "You're an exemplary woman." "I'll pull some strings, they'll look the other way when it comes to your shows." "Thank you, sir." "Nami Matsushima!" "That's the woman who broke free handcuffed and ran off." "We know she's injured." "She couldn't get very far in her state, so you've got to be hiding her!" "Tell us... where is she?" "I see... so you can't tell us, can you?" "In that case, I'm arresting you for harboring a criminal!" "Kudo, what a strange twist of fate..." "I was promoted from security, and you failed your student revolt..." "I never thought I'd run into you like this again." "What's learned in the cradle is carried to the grave, huh?" "Own up, you bastard." "If you want to protect that woman, it's your business..." "But you've sold out your comrades before." "You'll only end up in my clutches again." "Spit it out!" "Where's Nami Matsushima?" "Let me tell you what kind of woman she is." "Wanted for the murder of 8 detectives, 3 prison breaks, and 28 attempts." "In order to uphold the dignity of the state and to maintain law and order that woman must never be forgiven for her crimes... she's evil incarnate!" "Start talking!" "He's fallen once before." "He's sure to fall again." "If you don't start talking, I'll have to refresh your memory!" "We have no choice." "I didn't talk." "I won!" "I didn't let them break me!" "Let's tell the Chief." "Goddammit!" "I'm going to kill him the next time I see him." "Hold your fire!" "I want to take her alive!" "It's an underground passage!" "Goddammit!" "Tighten the search." "Matsushima and Kudo are on the run together now." "So if you can smoke out Kudo, you'll be sure to nab Matsushima as well." "I have a warrant, but I'm authorizing you to do whatever it takes." "Everyone from Kudo's relatives to his friends..." "leave no stone unturned!" "Hirose Squad!" "Tsuchida Squad!" "Ikawa Squad!" "Yamamoto Squad!" "Hiroshima Squad!" "What the hell!" " Where is Kudo?" " I don't know." "Do you know a man named Kudo?" " Police!" " What's going on?" "You said he's not coming home tonight, right?" "We have no choice, then." "We're just going to have to wait here, no matter how long it takes." "Kimiyo?" "It's me." "I'm not going to make it home tonight." "We'll have to postpone your birthday celebration." "How's the baby doing?" "Hey, what's the matter?" "Hello?" "Hello?" "You lied to us." "Kodama was really supposed to come home tonight!" "Shit!" " Hey, this place is off-limits!" " I'm Kodama!" "We're finished with our investigation." "We've got fingerprints." " We don't need them." " Sir?" "I already know who did this." "It's the Scorpion." "I've been virtually dead all these years." "That was the only way I could get through life." "But now I've met you and I feel as though I can go back to being who I was before." "I'm going to get those bastards." "I'm going to get my revenge on them for trying to destroy me." "I swear I'm going to rip their heads off." "That's right..." "We had a plan once... years ago." "I can get it done this time if you help me." "This base is what all their power depends on." "They send out a huge amount of money every month, on the 20th." "That's what we're going after." "It should be coming at 10 AM." "It won't be long now." "Here it comes." "Goddammit!" "We're surrounded." "Let's split up." "Meet me at the hideout!" "Just run!" "Drop your gun!" "Drop your gun!" "Shut the hell up!" "Just get him!" "Where's Nami Matsushima?" "Where's your hideout?" "You can beat me all you want..." " I'll never give in to you." " Goddamn you!" "Is that the best you can do?" "What the hell?" "Hey!" "Who said you could sleep?" "Stay awake, got that?" "Hey!" "We'll let you sleep all you want after you talk to us." "You're a lot more stubborn now than you ever were before." "But that's all right." "As a reward, I'll let you meet with a special visitor." "Hey." "Hey!" "What's the matter, Kudo?" "Aren't you happy to see her?" "You haven't seen your mother in a long time, have you?" "What a dirty trick." "Don't be ridiculous." "Your mother came all the way from Hirosaki to try to make you see the error of your ways!" "Hey!" "Now, stand up." "Yasuo, you mustn't carry such a grudge against these detectives." "Everything you've done... you have no one to blame but yourself." "They told me everything." "You know you haven't been home in so many years..." "I always believed you had your own life to live somehow..." "That's what I told myself, and I've always borne it!" "But not this time..." "Yasuo!" "You've been deceived by this terrifying woman!" "You've got to apologize to the detectives right away." "If you just tell them where she is, they'll let you go." "The detectives..." "They don't think you're the one who killed Mr. Kodama's wife." "You were never the type of person who could kill in cold blood!" "It was that woman who killed her." "All you have to do is tell them where she is, they'll let you go!" "I beg of you... please don't be such an inconsiderate son anymore!" "Please, stop causing your mother so much grief!" "I..." "Mother..." "Mother!" "Dammit..." "Yasuo?" "Nami..." "Nami..." "Tsuchida!" "What happened?" "Hang on!" "Hey!" "You've got to hang on!" "Nami Matsushima!" "You're under arrest!" "Just surrender, nice and easy..." "Goddamn you!" "Damn you..." "Goddamn you!" "You bitch..." "I'm going to kill you!" "Hold still!" "Out of my way!" "Hey!" "Scorpion... once you're arrested, our job will be over." "But I'm never going to forgive you." "In time, you're going to pay..." "I'll make sure you feel the pain!" "Nami..." "So you betrayed me!" "But I just didn't have any choice..." "I believed in you..." "I trusted you." "Nami..." "Nami..." "What do you think you're doing?" "No slacking!" "How dare you look at me like that!" "It does not concern the rest of you!" "What are you doing?" "Get back to work!" "Any speck of dust you overlook will only anger the Chief Warden remember that!" "What do you think you're doing?" "For the state to rule over its citizens, capital punishment is a necessary institution." "That is why the gallows must be kept exceptionally and absolutely clean." "So you'll be executing the Scorpion soon?" "Within the next 5 months." "It's up to the Minister of Justice, of course." "The later the better." "The thing is..." "I'd like her to suffer the agony of hell as much as possible." "Right here in this renowned prison." "To tame a wild beast, nothing is more effective than a whip." "The beast needs to learn who's boss." "If I had my way, I'd keep the inmates here for their whole lives." "After all, they have nothing to offer the outside world, because..." "They're useless human beings!" "By the way, how's the Scorpion doing?" "Whoa..." "Warden, take these gentlemen to Cell No. 4." "Cell No. 4..." "But it's not a good time..." "I'm ordering you." "I'm ordering you." "Even the most violent killer has a soul deep down inside allowing her to beg the spirits for mercy." "When she was sent here after being sentenced to death she caused so much trouble." "But she's completely repentant now." "I'm sure Nami Matsushima will follow her lead in time." "It pains me to have to show her to you in this state..." "But we had no choice but to punish her for being rebellious." "Miss Daimon, would it be all right if we unshackled her?" "I'd like to treat her as an equal human being." "I've asked the Chief Warden myself..." "If it's the Chief Warden you're worried about, I'll explain it to her." "If that's your intention then I'm sure Nami Matsushima will open her heart to you." "Matsushima!" "I'm not going to let you die on the gallows." "I'm going to beat you to death with my own hands!" "Nobody will give a damn if you die here." "I can explain your death away with a single document." "There's still plenty of time." "I'm not going to execute you until you've suffered at my hands." "This time, you'll sit in our car and dream about Kudo, the man who sold you out." "Goddamn you!" "Goddamn you!" "Please, stop!" "Warden!" "Matsu's no human being." "This torture is exactly what she deserves." "You must stop now!" "Get up, dammit." "She's no ordinary woman." "Show her sympathy and it'll make her cockier!" "It's futile to think she has any hope for rehabilitation." "And with a warden like that..." "she's only going to take advantage." "You're absolutely right." "It's that warden I'm concerned about, not the inmates." "She's far too soft for this job!" "No matter what happens, you mustn't be so perverse." "Perhaps you're not the only one at fault here." "You might have been shaped by those around you." "But that doesn't mean that you can ever erase your sins." "The one thing you can do right now is to repent your sins even if it's only for the short time you have left, find your true self." "That's what I believe." "That's the only way you can atone for your sins." "Open your heart." "Even if you've been condemned to death." "Some people are able to accept that fate peacefully." "Can you hear that?" "The sound of a voice in prayer..." "Throwing herself on Buddha's mercy she's able to wait for death in peace." "It's a prayer for atonement." "That woman's execution will be carried out 4 days from now." "I intend to notify her tomorrow." "I'm sure she'll accept the news calmly and peacefully." "Miss Inagaki, this is Nami Matsushima." "She's received the death penalty, just as you have." "So this is the woman who wanted to meet with me?" "She can give you the support you need." "Tell her what's on your mind." "She's in your hands, all right?" "Why don't you have a seat?" "Let us repent together." "You can repent all you want, but it won't erase the terror of execution." "I'm sure you already know that." "The truth is, you want to live." "You want to live, so to free yourself from fear, you put on a mask." "You're going to be executed in 4 days." "You're lying!" "I won't let you get away with such monstrous lies!" "If you really want to live, there's a way." "That warden trusts you." "You've got to use her to escape from this prison." "You'd better think it over." "Is anything the matter?" "No." "I don't want to die!" "Help me!" "Miss Inagaki!" "Pull yourself together!" "Miss Inagaki!" "Help me!" "Damn her, making us come running!" "What did you say to her?" "What did you do to Miss Inagaki?" "Answer me!" "This is Detective Kodama of the Metropolitan Police who has specifically requested to be present at today's execution." "Well?" "How's Inagaki doing?" "She seems to have regained her composure." "The execution will be carried out as scheduled, at 2 PM." "What do you think about having Matsushima witness the execution?" "Matsushima?" "We should let her see first-hand what it's like for a person to die with a noose around her neck." " Inagaki..." " What's the matter?" "No!" "No!" "I don't want to die!" " Inagaki!" " Help me!" "Please help me!" "Chief Warden!" "Save me!" "What's the meaning of this?" "Get her under control!" "No!" "No!" "Murderers!" "Help me!" "Inagaki!" "Help me!" "That's how you're going to end up... soon." "You call that scrubbing?" "What a bitch!" "Taking it out on us just because the Chief Warden gave her hell!" "She's such an ass-kisser." "Come on, no dawdling!" "Hey!" "I want to see some vigorous scrubbing!" "What you did was unforgivable." "Inagaki wanted to die in peace." "You turned her last moments into hell!" "Demon!" "You're a demon!" "I'll be sure to let you know when your execution date is set." "Until then, you can have nightmares about your hanging... every night!" "I hope you're driven insane by the fear of death... just like Inagaki!" "Warden!" "Miss Daimon, we have something we need to discuss with you." "Will you come with us?" "Please." "What's this?" "You're not scrubbing hard enough!" "Let's see some serious scrubbing!" "Do you hear me?" "Hey!" "Are you listening to me or not?" "Excuse me, the Chief Warden needs to see you." "Yes, sir." "What is it?" "What do you want..." "What in the world are you doing?" "Please don't do this to me!" "Keep quiet, or all the inmates will hear you." "No!" "How could the police do a thing like this?" "We have a favor to ask of you." "If you don't want anyone to find out about this, you'll do as we say." "Please." "By the way, how is she doing?" "Chief Warden, we can't have another scene like the other day." "Another mishap and you won't escape culpability." "Rest assured." "Nami Matsushima seems to have resigned herself at last." "The car is parked where I told you." "Hurry!" " Isn't she ready yet?" " Yes, ma'am." "Warden!" "Warden!" "Warden!" "Warden!" "Please, pull yourself together!" "What's taking so long?" "Yes, Chief, I'll go check on them." "Chief Warden!" "What's going on?" "She's escaped!" "Escaped?" "Nami Matsushima has escaped!" "Chief Warden, do you know what will happen if that woman escapes?" "We're so sorry." "We apologize!" "It's your responsibility to maintain control!" "Chief Warden, I'm holding you accountable for this!" "My, how terrifying..." "She did it!" "She did it!" "Scorpion busted out!" "She did it!" "She did it!" "Scorpion busted out!" "Get out, Nami Matsushima." "This is the gallows I had built just for you." "Get up there." "Honey!" "Honey..." "You'd better hurry, or the bath-house will close." "I'm almost finished." "You go on ahead." "All right, but don't be too long!" "Nami..." "I've been expecting you." "Nami..." "Please forgive me." "I always knew we'd end up like this someday." "I'm not the one who stabbed you." "You were stabbed by the Nami Matsushima who fell for you." ""Flowers are beautiful" - "i"his words flatter you today" "But once you're in full bloom, he'll just toss you away" "Foolish, foolish, foolish woman's song..." "Her song of vengeance." ""You cling to your dreams" - "i"they scorn your world of lies" "So you try to wake up, but you can't open your eyes" "A woman, a woman, a woman's heart is her song..." "Her song of vengeance." "I cannot die before I fulfill my fate" "So I live on, driven only by my hate" "A woman, a woman, a woman's life is her song..." "Her song of vengeance." "SCORPION" " GRUDGE SONG THE END"
