Code Geass
[Lelouch is meeting Suzaku in the Kururugi Shrine asking for his help to protect Nunnally.]
Suzaku:
I need to know. Did you use your Geass power on Euphy? Be honest.
Lelouch:
Yes.
Suzaku:
You caused her to massacre the Japanese?
Lelouch:
I ordered her to do it.
Suzaku:
Why would you use your Geass power like that?! [He doesn't answer] Answer me!
Lelouch:
To motivate the Japanese people. If the Specially Administrated Zone of Japan had been established, the Black Knights would have collapsed.
Suzaku:
And Shirley's death?
Lelouch:
Also my fault.
Suzaku:
You aren't even human, you know that? Shirley and Euphy...Were both of them nothing more than pawns for your ambitions?
Lelouch:
Yes, that's right. So all the sin is mine to shoulder. My little sister had nothing to do with it!
Suzaku:
Why you coward! How could you use Nunnaly like that?! [Lelouch gets down on his legs.]
Lelouch:
Suzaku, I'm sorry. For the first time in my life, I'm bowing down to another person. Shame and honor mean nothing to me. All I want is this, and my Geass be damned! Just please, you have to save Nunnaly! I beg of-- [Suzaku's shoe steps on Lelouch's head, which causes him to fall to the ground with Suzaku keeping him down.]
Suzaku:
After everything you've done, you really think this is sufficient? You believe some bowing and begging is enough for me to forgive you?!
Lelouch:
No, of course I don't, but it's all I got! I have nothing else left to offer! You're the only person in the world who can save my sister now!
Suzaku:
So you believe...I'll just ignore the past and forgive you? That everyone is going to forgive you?! [He puts more pressure on Lelouch's head.] The people you've tricked...The people who've died thanks to you...And what about Euphy?! You wanna apologize?! Then bring Euphy back to life! Right now! I wanna see you save the world with all your malice! Right now! You're Zero, the miracle worker, aren't you?!
Lelouch:
I've preformed no miracles! It's all been calculation and stage production. The mass they call Zero is a symbol! Just a device that lets me tell lies!
Suzaku:
Device?! You don't really expect me to believe that excuse, do you?! [Suzaku takes his shoe off Lelouch and picks him up by his shoulders.] If you're going to tell a lie, then keep it up 'til the very end!
Lelouch:
I can't go back to the past! There's not a choice! You know I can't undo what's already been done!
Suzaku:
Lelouch! YOU WILL ANSWER ME! [He throws Lelouch to the ground.] Why did you use your Geass on me to make me wanna live?! WHY?! The Geass you used on me that drives me to live has corrupted my convictions! Why would you put such a curse on me?!
Lelouch:
I only did it because I wanted to survive.
Suzaku:
Then why did you save me when I was accused of Prince Clovis' murder?
Lelouch:
I wanted to make the Japanese trust me, that's all.
Suzaku:
Why did you save the student council members from the hotel jacking?
Lelouch:
Because I thought it presented an ideal for the Black Knights' debut.
Suzaku:
[Thinking] The look in his eyes...I know that look...The look of torment that comes from bottling up a lie. That's why I joined the Britannian Army: for redemption. So that the tragedy wouldn't repeat itself. [Aloud] You're lying, aren't you? Lelouch, there's only one way to redeem yourself for yourself. Turn your falsehoods into the truth.
Lelouch:
Huh?
Suzaku:
You told the world a lie when you proclaimed you were a knight for justice. Why don't you live up to that lie by trying to become a true knight for justice. Then you'll have the lie going, to the very end.
Lelouch:
But how? How can I do that?
Suzaku:
By putting an end to this war. You are Zero. This job, only Zero can do it. It's within your power. Bring peace and happiness to the world. If you do that, I'll save Nunnally.
Lelouch:
You will? You'll save her?
Suzaku:
But we'll work together. One more time for her sake.
Lelouch:
I'm grateful. The two of us together. We can accomplish anything. [Lelouch was about to grab Suzaku's hand, when a bullet stops them. After, several Knightmares surround them.]
Suzaku:
Wha-What the...?
Claudio:
Hold it right there, Zero!
Bart:
We've already uncovered your true identity! [A group of Britannian soldiers surround Lelouch and Suzaku.]
Britannian Soldier #1:
Are you all right, Sir Kururugi?
Britannian Soldier #2:
Please, stay back!
Lelouch:
Suzaku...[The Britannian soldiers point their guns at Lelouch while two others restrain him.] You set me up from the start?!
Suzaku:
No, wait--! [Kanon puts his hand on Suzaku's shoulder.]
Kanon:
You've done a great deed here, Sir Kururugi. Excellent work. You've managed to bring this war to an end.
Lelouch:
I see...You planned to sell me out again...You betrayed me, Suzaku...YOU BETRAYED ME!!!
