Code Geass
Nina:
A single shot from the Mordred's Stark Hadron cannon would demolish the Mausoleum, wouldn't it?
Lloyd :
Well, yes. If you just want to crush them.
Kanon Maldini:
And the moment we did that they'd say we killed their empress. We have to let the High Eunuchs make that last mortal blow.
Zhao Hao:
So, you admit you're outmatched. Well, we won't accept your surrender. It's too late now.
Lelouch:
You insist on fighting? Even though your own empress will die in the attack?
Zhao Hao:
The empress is merely a system. There are plenty of others to replace her.
Cheng Zhong:
So you can't use her as a bargaining chip.
Lelouch:
But you use her to gain noble titles in the Britannian court.
Zhao Hao:
You have sharp ears, don't you? A cheap price to pay for power.
Lelouch:
Cheap? A phony treaty that gives China's land to a foreign nation?
Xia Wang:
Land is nothing but dirt, after all.
Zhao Hao:
Correct. We're Britannian noblemen now. That's what counts.
Lelouch:
And what about the common people you sworn to protect?
Zhao Hao:
Zero, when you walk down the street, do you worry about stepping on the ants?
Cheng Zhong:
You throw away paper that clings to your bottom, don't you? It's the same thing.
Lelouch:
You sell out your country, abandon your empress, betray your own people, and all for what?
Xia Wang:
An idealist. I never thought you were so naïve, Zero.
Zhao Hao:
Indeed! Masters and commoners will always breed.
Cheng Zhong:
Like insects!
Futaba Sumeragi:
Radiant shield generators 2 and 5 are offline!
Ohgi:
That leaves the deck exposed!
Tianzi:
Stop it!
Kaguya:
Your Majesty!
Lelouch:
Noblemen, you're bureaucrats, paper pushers who know nothing about noblesse oblige!
Tianzi:
Please stop it! You have to stop all this fighting!
