"Subtitles by Ankit Bhageria" "Wait, son!" "Let me go, father!" "This fight is for the biggest chance of my life!" "Crazy fool!" "You'll get killed!" "Who wants to be a gambler?" "Farmers should shut up and work the fields!" "Who wants a long life eating porridge?" "I want to eat good food, wear nice things." "A short, exciting life for me!" "I'd like a drink of water." "Why didn't you stop him?" "He wouldn't listen." "Kids these days have all gone mad." "Not only the young ones." "Everybody's after easy money." "Gambling, throwing dice." "Can't tell whose money is whose." "I hear the brewer's become a silk broker." "Says he'll pay more than the silk store." "But what's the difference when the town is the way it is?" "Who knows when the silk fair will open." "The smell of blood brings the hungry dogs." "They fight to collect the silk and soak it in their blood." "Then they can hold the fair!" "Samurai, want to be a bodyguard?" "I can fix it up for you." "Lots of opportunities." "I charge one ryô" "Which side do you want to go?" "Seibei runs a brothel." "Plenty of women." "But he's not doing well." "I'd bet on Ushitora." "Look." "The inn at the corner." "That's his place." "Say Hansuke sent you." "Wish I could take you, but I'm an officer." "Don't forget." "I get one ryô" "What's up?" "The road is public." "Even dogs can pass." "You have to put on a better show than that." "They only look tough." "Chop an arm off, and they'll shut up." "Then is your chance." "Give it up, scum!" "Come in." " Sake?" " Food." "No business these days, so there's not much." "Even the rice is cold." "I don't mind." "Old man." "I know." "No money." "I'll cause some trouble and pay you." "No!" "I've had enough of fighting!" "I won't charge you, but get the hell out of town." "Thanks." "There he goes again!" "The undertaker." "Business is booming." "Can't make coffins fast enough." "It's better not to have any gamblers." "One oyabun to a town we can tolerate but not two." "That's only good for the cooper." "Quiet!" "Gamblers are a bloodless, greedy bunch." "They shouldn't try to act human." "But Seibei he wanted his son to have all his territory." "No wonder Ushitora, his right-hand man, wouldn't agree to it." "A strange name." "His ma started her labor in the year of ushi (cow), but he bounced out in the new year of tora (tiger), the pest." "He broke with Seibei and became a boss." "Now only swords can settle things." "Both sides are out rounding up men." "Instead of silk fair, it's a corpse fair." "How's business, cooper?" "How many coffins did you sell last night?" "Two to your side." "Four to the other side." "Not so bad." "Inokichi, Ushitora's brother." "Like his name, he's a wild pig." "He's an idiot, but when he gets mad, he's impossible." "He's come back with three more killers." "A disgrace!" "That's our officer." "He's supposed to arrest crooks." "But he's not the only one." "Look." "Tazaemon from the silk store started this mess." "He was the town mayor but he screwed up." "He is surviving on Seibei's money." "Then Tokuemon, the sake brewer, sided with Ushitora." "He already acts as if he's the next head man." "He's even getting into silk." "Now Tazaemon is a helpless fool." "He bangs his prayer drum all day, hoping for Seibei to win." "See?" "He's started!" "The lot of them!" "Anyway, this town is finished." "Now do you see?" "If you stay, you'll get sucked in too." "Eat quickly, and then leave." "No more rice." "Some sake." "I like it here." "I'll stay." "What?" "You still don't understand?" "Yes, I do." "That's why I'm staying." "Listen to me." "In this town, I'll get paid for killing." "And this town is full of men who are better off dead." "Think about it." "Seibei, Ushitora, gamblers..." "This place would be better without them." "You couldn't do it if you had nine lives!" "Not alone." "How then?" "Sake." "I'll think while I drink." "Everybody in this town is crazy!" "But you're even crazier!" "I want to talk to Seibei." "Who are you?" "Do you want to buy me?" "As a yojimbo." "I'll show you what I'm worth." "You again?" "What do you want?" "You guys have such cute faces." "What?" "You can't even hurt a fly... yet you act so tough." "Very cute." "3Don't take us for fools." "See this tattoo?" "I wasn't in prison for nothing!" "The law's after me." "I'll hang if I'm ever caught!" "Me too." "They'll cut my head off someday." "I've broken every law." "So you won't mind if I kill all of you?" "What?" "Kill me if you can!" "It'll hurt." "You can't be a gambler if you're scared of the sword." "No cure for stupidity." "Cooper." "Two coffins." "No, maybe three." "Name me a price." "How much until the battle is over?" "Well, how about three ryô" "I'm going to Ushitora." "He might pay more." "Four ryô" "Five ryô" "Not even close." "Ten!" "I'll pay you ten!" "20 ryô" "25 ryô" "30 ryô" "All right!" "50 ryô" "Very well. 25 ryôoom and board." "My men want to pay their respects." "Have a drink." "Come." "She has no manners." "It's idiotic to pay 25 ryôoff." "He won't have time to." "I'm attacking right away." "He got three of Ushitora's men." "They're scared stiff." "We'll win with him leading us." "I see." "But then we'd have to pay him 25 ryô." "We'd save the whole 50 ryôin." " That's a dirty trick!" " Be quiet!" "If you can't even do that, forget being the heir." "There is no honor amongst gamblers." "That's right." "You can't succeed unless you're called a thief and a killer." "You kill the samurai." "Let him think he's one of us, then stab him in the back." "Easy." "You have to kill more to get the men to respect you." "But I killed one of Ushitora's men!" "One man!" "Don't flatter yourself!" "What are you afraid of?" "One or a hundred..." "you only hang once!" "Here you are. 25 ryô" "Let's drink and get acquainted." "My son, Yoichiro." "My wife, Orin." "My four strongest men..." "Magotaro, Yahachi, Matsukichi and Sukeju." "Where is Homma-sensei?" "By the way, what is your name?" "My name is Kuwabatake Sanjûrô." "[kuwabatake = mulberry field, sanjû" "Going on 40, though..." "You're joking!" "Kuwabatake Sanjûrô should be good enough." "I'm a nobody anyway." "Not there, sensei." "Over here." "Here will do." "He gets 50 ryô and I only get 1 ryôrent class." "Someday I'll show you what I can do." "Show me today!" "We raid at noon today!" "In plain daylight?" "We haven't won until we kill Ushitora and Inokichi." "They might get away!" "Don't be afraid." "We can't lose with Homma-sensei and him." "12 o'clock noon!" "12 o'clock noon!" "Hurry up!" "What are you doing?" "You can't sneak away!" "We paid a lot for you!" "Get in!" "Give us a hand!" "Hurry up, sensei!" "Ushitora's men have come out!" "Everyone follow him!" "If you're going to fight, do it yourself." "I refuse." "Sorry." "I don't want to get killed after you win." "Here's your 25 ryô" "He's chickening out in the last minute!" "Where's Homma-sensei?" " Get him!" "Hurry!" " He ran away." "In broad daylight." "Who of you is Ushitora?" "Me." "What do you want?" "I cut my ties with Seibei." "That's all." "Watch out!" "A fight!" "Get going!" "Don't back out now!" "An official inspection!" "You lucky dog!" "You're the lucky one!" "I won't kill you until he goes!" "All you fugitives better hide!" "The same for our side!" "Have all the doors opened!" "Everything's peaceful here!" "Not even a dog fight!" "Open up!" "Open shop!" "Act as if nothing's happened!" "A country official's not much, but he's got a fine carriage." "What's funny?" "His men are drinking tea." "What of it?" "Look." "Spiked tea." "Don't be so angry." "Good riddance if they had killed each other off." "Too bad they were interrupted." "Get out!" "You and your crazy ideas!" "Think so?" "Think you'll get away with what you did?" "They won't take it!" "No, they'll come to say something." "The question is, who'll bring a pile of money first?" "They're set on winning, so they both want me." "Just wait and see." "So that's Tazaemon, the drummer?" "Tokuemon?" "No wonder that official has such an expensive carriage." "By the way, I'd like a drink too." "You have no money!" "Do you want something?" "You're quite a character." "I like you." "You're not mad I killed three of your men?" "They're nothing." "I'm Ushitora's brother..." "Inokichi." "You know me?" "I hear you're strong." "Not that strong." "Why, sensei!" "We're friends." "Drink at our place." "Or are you still mad?" " Aren't you mad?" " You're mean." "I was only joking, you mean man." "Let's go." "No way!" "We're having a drink!" "Right?" "Bring the sake!" "The best." "My treat." "No!" "My brother would beat me up!" "I'd be kicked out of the house!" " Bitch!" " What?" "Hey, cooper." "Drowning you sorrows in sake?" "No business with the official here so long, right?" "You've stayed ten days already yourself." "Don't say that." "I've made your place popular." "Be quiet." "This isn't a brothel." "If you want to stay, go to Seibei's place." "That's bad policy when both sides want me." "I'll stay and get their hopes up." "Everybody else out." "Come to my place." "Now." "Why the rush?" "The official will leave tomorrow." "An officer was killed in a town 24 miles from here." "He's taking the news well, it seems." "He won't get a report until tonight." "You know already?" "You had the officer killed?" "Maybe." "His staying here costs a lot." "So do my hired men." "I see." "Here's 30 ryô 30 more if I win." "Come right away." "Not until I give Seibei a fair chance." "Taking advantage of people." "Too bad." "I'll decide my price after the official leaves." "Be happy." "The official's leaving." "Is that true?" "Am I glad!" "What did Ushitora come for?" "The killing is going to begin again?" "Looks like it." "They're late." "It's about time someone came to offer me a price." "Samurai and always harping about money." "It's dangerous and dirty work." "It's only worth it for a high price." "You'll only be a yojimbo." "With some yojimbo the employers have to watch their back." "What's he running up and down the street for?" " Gonji." "A bottle of sake." " Not for the cooper to celebrate." "I'm not!" "I'm desperate!" "They're making up." "And I have a lot of coffin material." "What will I do?" "Too bad for you, but the town will quiet down." "Idiot!" "Gamblers make peace to get ready for a bigger fight." "If there's fighting, there's no silk fair." "No silk fair, no gambling." "To keep their territory intact, they make up." "It only leads to a bigger fight." "Understand?" "There's nothing as dangerous as that." "But they should be focused on winning right now." "Why did they patch things up?" "I think Unosuke suggested it." "Ushitora's younger brother." "He got back last night." "He's a bad one." "Like his name, he looks as timid as a rabbit... but he's a wolf inside." "A year." "Even the winds welcome you!" "Do you want to see something interesting?" "Your place too?" "It's an insult!" "They made up, so they fired us with a measly sum!" "Damn it!" "They got no cause to complain." "He made us do dangerous work, only yesterday at that!" "Be quiet!" "But it's a little too much." "Let's report Ushitora." "Stand up." "Let's go!" "Ushitora's a hard one." "What do you mean?" "Did you get a ryôfficer?" "No!" "Only two silver pieces!" "A rough deal." "But I'm glad you told me." "You're a gold mine." "Now I can use you to blackmail Ushitora... or sell you to Seibei." "Get up." "It's a bargain." "If you take them and report it to officials, you'll be rid of Ushitora." "What about the alliance?" "The young boss and Unosuke are talking right now." "What of it?" "Not bad if he gets arrested during the talks." "Are you ready?" "Lonesome?" "Take your pick and have fun." "I have to be careful." "Wait!" "Take care of your purchase." "It would be a total loss if Ushitora gets them back." "Lock them up in the warehouse." "I want to see Ushitora." "Who is it?" "I want to see Ushitora!" "Oyabun!" "Oyabun!" "What is it?" "It's you, is it?" "I don't need a yojimbo." "Too bad you missed out getting 60 ryô." "Hachi talks too much." "If you skimp in pay, you end up having to pay more later." "You paid him a measly sum." "So, he got drunk with Kuma and talked too much." "The rascals!" "Where are they?" "One of Seibei's men overheard them and captured them." "I followed." "They are locked up." "Damn it!" "This information is too good for it to be free." "Take as much as you want." "You're my yojimbo from now on." "This is enough for now." "I'll think about being a yojimbo." "I guess you don't know." "He's awfully strong." "Ino!" "Uno!" "What are you doing?" "Come quick!" "Don't kill Yoichiro!" "Get his sword and take him to Brother!" "Seibei!" "We have Yoichiro!" "Did you hear me?" "If you did, keep still and listen!" "If you want to save him, bring Kuma and Hachi!" "We'll exchange!" "Bring three unarmed men at 3:00 a.m in front of the guard box!" "Got it?" " Pretty good." " It will only get better." "Watch." "Don't forget to clap at 3:00!" "Give me something to eat." "Eat what you want." "Nobody's coming to eat such things for a while." "The town is beginning to boil again, just like this pot." "Why did you come here?" "Is this scenario part of your plan?" "Half of it." "Unosuke changed the other half." "3 o'clock!" "Ready, Ushitora?" "We're coming, Seibei!" "I'll push them, so let go of your rope too." "Seibei, you played a dirty trick." "We're even now." "If you love him, shave your head and ask Brother to be boss." "I thought so!" "Uno, look!" "Say, Ushitora, do you see her?" "I'll keep her!" "Ask your old brewer how he likes that!" "Very interesting." "Mother!" "Where is she?" "I'll show you." "What about you?" " I can't see her!" " Pretty soon now.." "Mother!" "Son!" "Hansuke!" "Hurry up!" "Mother!" "Coward, why didn't you bite your tongue off and die?" "You caused so much trouble!" "Seibei, I'll settle things with you later!" "Sure!" "I'll even things up with you." "Come closer." "He cried himself to sleep." "He's an unlucky fellow." "His wife was too beautiful." "He gambled and lost to Ushitora." "If she were ugly, he'd have lost only his house." "But old Tokuemon had his eye on her." "So Ushitora used her to win him over." "Took the wife and the house to dangle before Tokuemon." "So he built a hut near his old place." "He watches helplessly as Tokuemon calls on his wife every day." "I don't want her anymore!" "I gave her to him!" "Your sad face betrays you." "Going home?" "Won't you get beaten up?" "Weren't you told not to see her?" "I'm used to it." "I don't mind." "Ushitora's men guard his place." "She can't even see her son." "I hate his kind!" "Makes me sick!" " I've decided to be your yojimbo." " That's great!" "An advance. 30 ryô" "A stiff price." "I'd refuse." "He's awfully strong!" "Beat this?" "Don't say that." "If I refuse, he'll go to Seibei." "That would be bad!" "Buy him then!" "Here, 30 ryô" " 30 more when we win." " You have my word." "If it's settled, let's drink to it." "Fine, but is the woman safe?" "Woman?" "Tokuemon's woman." "If they get her again, you'll lose for sure." "Don't worry." "Six strong men are on watch." "Not enough." "If there was someone as strong as him..." "Shall I go?" " I'll go too, and see how they're doing." " Thanks." "Not a pleasant job." "You have to stay out in the cold when Tokuemon is here." "He doesn't seem to be here now." " The fool who lost his wife lives there?" " Yes!" "I've got to beat him up." "Hey, you!" "What were you doing around her?" "You had orders to keep away!" "Say, Ino, everybody's dead!" "All six men have been killed!" "Report it!" "Hurry!" "Who is it?" "You're free!" "Get dressed!" "Idiot!" "Mother!" "Hurry!" "Get out!" "30 ryôt from Ushitora!" "Take it!" "You idiots!" "Hurry up!" "Stop it!" "I hate pathetic people!" "I'll kill you if you cry!" "It's Ushitora!" " Go!" " We'll thank you later." " Stupid!" "Don't come back!" " Thank you!" "Thank you!" " What's up?" " Look." "A mess." "I told you six men weren't enough." "Looks like 15 or 16 men did it." " Where's the woman?" " Gone." "Seibei's pretty clever." "Brother!" "It'll burn up!" "My silk will burn!" "Put the fire out!" "I'll reward you!" "Don't move!" "Return the woman!" "What?" "What woman?" "Don't pretend!" "Return her or else!" "Return her?" "But..." "Quiet!" "The sake's all leaking out!" "It's the end!" "Stop up the holes!" "I'll give you anything!" "It's that Seibei!" "Come on, men!" "Why are you looking so gloomy?" "Business should be booming." "No, when a fight gets too big, they don't bother with coffins." " One more." " Sure." "You're so nice today." "What's up?" "It's weird." "You're not angry that I'm Ushitora's yojimbo?" "No." "You're all right." "You just act like you're bad." " He came last night." " Who?" "The man who makes you sick." "He told me." "He said to give you this." "You're not going to read it?" "Jus a thank you note, I know." "But read it." "He took a risk bringing it." "Shut up!" "I'm busy drinking!" "A word with you." "What?" "Ino went to hire men and just got back." " Get any?" " No." "No wonder." "No man who worked for you would be singing your praises." "But Ino heard an interesting story from one man." "Tokuemon's woman was seen with her husband and their kid." "This was the morning after the six men were killed." "That means Seibei didn't kidnap her." "Seems so." "Then who killed the men?" "Ino, did you really see the men dead before you came to tell Brother?" "No." "He told me..." "Only a strong swordsman could have killed them like that." "You're the only man around here who's that strong." "So?" "I just thought maybe it was you who killed them." "But he's our yojimbo." "Why would he..." "That's what I don't understand either." "Wait!" "What's this?" ""To the samurai?" "From Kohei and Nui." "Shouldn't we tie him up?" "No, as long as he doesn't have a sword.." " Where am I?" " The brewery." "The gate to hell." "Be careful!" "A pat from you hurts as much as a blow." "Do you want to get busted again?" "Where are you going?" "That's a shortcut to hell!" "Don't kill him!" "Don't worry." "He's groaning." "Do you know who I am?" "Then listen." "He wants to talk to you personally." "Do you really know where the woman is?" "You can't count on it." "He's trying to save his own skin." "He's talking." "You keep quiet." "I hate long drawn-out talks." "The sooner things are settled, the better." "Tell me where the woman is." "I'll let you live." "What's the matter?" "You're lucky." "You're not going to refuse, are you?" "I won't talk!" " Say!" "Don't kill him!" " Don't worry." "Do your stuff." " How about it?" "Are you going to talk?" " No, you fathead!" "Don't kill him!" "Don't get blood on the chest!" "Thanks to him, we have to sleep here now." "I need to bust him some more!" "I'm sure I shut this door." "Say, he's gone!" "What?" "Don't scare me!" "Brother, this isn't a joke!" "Idiots!" "No point in looking where it's light!" "Search where it's dark!" "Old man, open up!" "It's me." "I know I'm quite a spectacle, but do your looking later." "I told you so, didn't I?" "You're so reckless." "Save your lecture!" "The'll be coming soon!" "Tell them I went to Seibei's place." "Did he come?" "Lie and you'll be sorry!" "He came, but he went to Seibei's place." "Don't believe him." "They're two of a kind." "If he asked, Seibei would help." "He's something else." "He wouldn't stay put with his head cut off!" "We'll massacre Seibei's bunch!" "I held back because of the woman!" "Gather straw and smoke them out!" "Smoke them out like raccoons, then kill them?" "That's great!" "Pull yourself together." "What will you do now?" "Go and buy a coffin." "Don't give up." "Idiot!" "I'm not dying yet." "I have to kill quite a few men first." "Is it safe?" "If Ushitora checks..." "They're too busy." "Take a look." "Ushitora?" "Smoking out Seibei's place." "Sounds interesting." "Let me down." "I'll watch." "But..." "Let me down!" "I can't see." "Over there." "It's me!" "Don't shoot!" " Idiot, stay where you are!" " The wrestler's there." "Brother?" " What?" "I killed the two men who killed three of ours." " Is that all?" " Yes!" " Go!" "You can't get away!" "You greedy bitch!" " Where are Seibei and Yoichiro?" " I don't know!" "I'll kill you!" "Mother!" "Seibei, come out!" "Yoichiro has asked for mercy!" "What's wrong, Seibei?" "You win!" "I'm coming out!" "Don't kill my son and me!" "All right!" "All my territory is yours!" "You can take over!" "A dirty trick!" "Now it's just the samurai." " There's nobody in there." " That can't be!" "He isn't there." "He can't just vanish." "He's a mess." "He can't go far." "Old man, let's get going." "The cooper's run away!" "That's a problem." "Anybody around?" "It's worse." "Inokichi's coming this way!" "Humor him." "Make him help." " But..." " Try it!" " Just in case." " Thanks." "What's up?" "We were carrying this body but the cooper got scared and ran away." "Will you help me?" "No way." "Are you kidding me?" " Afraid of dead men?" " What?" "You're scared." "Your face shows it." " I'm not afraid!" " Then help me." "No big deal." "We're going to the cemetery." "Are you afraid of ghosts?" "No, they make me feel just great!" "Good." "Let's go then." "Here?" "No ghosts!" "They appear when people are afraid like me." "You're strong." "You'll be alone if I go." "I'll help you bury him." "Weren't you looking for someone?" "That's right!" "I'll get a beating!" "Are you all right?" "Very interesting." "Can you walk?" "There's a small temple near here." "Yes." "You don't look alive." "I'll be all right if I sleep for a few days." "It's worse when you smile." "You're late." "I'm hungry." "It's me!" "Gonji's in trouble!" "What?" "He was caught!" "The medicine and rice he had for you gave him away!" "Where is he?" "Seibei's place." "Ushitora has moved in there." "Are you fighting with that?" " I will!" " Wait." "Use this." "A coffin maker gets these." "Sorry it's a dead man's sword." "Get away while he's fighting Ushitora and his men." "You told him?" "You stupid meddler!" "Hurry!" "Don't come too close!" "Mother!" "Go home." "A long life eating porridge is best!" "You're kind, aren't you?" "Do me a favor too." "What?" "If I don't have my pistol..." "I feel sort of naked." "I can't die without it." "Let me hold it." "Don't worry." "It went off twice." "No more bullets." "Thanks!" "I can't!" "It's becoming dark." "Who's praying?" "I don't need any prayers..." "Say, samurai trash..." "are you there?" "I'm here." "The entrance to hell..." "I'll be waiting there for you." "He died as recklessly as he lived." "Hansuke!" "What is it?" "Go hang yourself." "Now it'll be quiet in this town." "Old man." "So long."
