Blue Exorcist: Kyoto Saga (2017–…): Season 1, Episode 4 - Act of Treachery - full transcript
Who is betraying the Myoda sect? Without high priest Tatsuma in attendance, the general meeting falls into chaos and ends without a conclusion. As Suguro resolves to find and question his ...
I've had all I can take.
I've brought you all here for one reason.
To smoke out the traitor in our midst!
When it happened,
it appeared to me that Master Tatsuma
was controlling the flames.
Surely Master Tatsuma wasn't behind--
Besides,
isn't the fact that he hasn't come
to this inquiry all the proof we need?
First thing tomorrow,
I'm gonna climb Kongo-Shinzan
and get the truth out of Dad!
Juzo?
Good work today, sir.
Yeah.
We heard there was a meeting
of the Myodha leaders today.
Has something happened?
No, are there rumors going around?
Well…
Just that the director put out
an emergency summons
to all Deep Keep security
senior exorcists,
so we thought there might be a meeting.
-An emergency summons?
-Yes.
Why?
Well, I have no idea, but is it okay
to leave the Deep Keep's defenses so thin?
You have a point.
I'll ask the director about it.
Thank you.
The key to the field office?
Why would he suddenly need to go to there?
BASEMENT
BASEMENT
Hey! Are you okay?
What's going on here, Juzo?
If you forgive, you can move on
But bitterness will make you stop
Go ahead and blame me for this and that
Forgive everything that stops you
And everyone but me
and keep moving forward
Even if you name it
"a flower that will never wither forever"
That doesn’t mean it will become a flower
that will never wither
"If you keep living honestly,
you'll be rewarded someday"
But you know that’s not true
A certain percentage of what
would happen to you may be your fault
But the rest could
be unfairly no one’s fault
The worst thing you could do
is think you're useless
Go ahead and blame me for this and that
Forgive everyone but me and keep moving on
And please forgive yourself as well
Episode 4: Act of Treachery
Stay calm.
If I stay calm and think about it,
I've been too focused on
lighting the candle.
That's why I set the whole candle on fire!
What I really want to burn…
is this part here!
This part
Which means all I need is a small flame.
Just enough to give it a little flick…
I did it.
I did it!
You sure did!
I did it!
How do you like that, Shura?
I lit 'em! I lit 'em with style!
Yeah, you sure did.
I guess you're finally
at the starting line now.
You mean I haven't even started yet?
You have to have perfect command
over your flames.
If you flame up and lose control again,
you'll be put down as an exorcism target.
Let's get straight to the point.
Is that demon there the son of Satan?
That is correct.
It is far too late for excuses.
Then what was your purpose
for secretly having him raised
under Shiro Fujimoto's care?
In order to turn him into a weapon
for fighting Satan.
Everyone gathered here today!
May I propose a wager?
On whether this spawn of Satan
will become the demon king of Gehenna,
or if he will be the savior of the Order!
No, of all Assiah! Place your bets!
-Preposterous!
-You've lost your mind!
Arrest Mephisto at once!
We will now vote to decide
whether to accept the wager
put forth by Mephisto Pheles.
First, he must pass the Exorcist
Authorization Exam six months from now.
And, if he should be declared
a threat to Assiah,
you will remand him to be executed
immediately as an exorcism target.
Dammit.
Yeah, I've still got a long way to go.
But this is one small step for man,
one giant leap for mankind!
What are you yammering about?
Will you calm down first?
What are you doing there…
Mamushi?
Did he say Mamushi?
Just as I thought, you were the traitor.
You also rigged the invocation fire.
I thought you were acting suspiciously
at the inquiry meeting.
Still, even though
we never really got along,
I thought you loved Myodha
more than anyone else.
So why?
Say something!
I did it to open Myodha's eyes.
To show them that the real traitor is…
…Tatsuma Suguro!
Him, and Japan Branch Preceptor
Mephisto Pheles.
Mephisto?
Mephisto? What are you talking about?
It was eight years ago, shortly after
we began exorcism cram school.
Mr. Todo took me into his confidence.
-Ms. Hojo.
-Sir?
I ask that you keep this between us,
but do you know of something
called the Left Eye of the Impure King?
The Left Eye of the Impure King
is being held in the Deep Keep
as the personal property
of Preceptor Mephisto Pheles.
Apparently, a Right Eye also exists.
It's all rather mysterious, though.
Since you belong to the Myodha Sect,
which defeated the Impure King,
I was wondering if you knew anything.
Left Eye?
S-Such a thing exists?
Wh-What do you mean?
Nothing.
Well, the truth is…
Mr. Todo had long harbored suspicions
regarding Mephisto's behavior.
He said he wanted to
expose his corruption.
Corruption?
He figured out that
even Tatsuma Suguro was involved.
And so, I decided to assist Mr. Todo and
investigated all I could these past years.
I was unable to uncover
anything definitive, but a week ago,
I obtained fairly reliable information
regarding Mephisto's disciplinary
hearing at the Vatican.
It said that Mephisto had secretly
spared Satan's spawn and had him raised!
What did you say?
And that Myodha's holiest relic
has been used to keep him alive.
You understand what that means, I take it?
It means Tatsuma Suguro helped Mephisto
perpetrate this fraud!
Just as Mr. Todo suspected!
Prove it!
As if there'd be any proof here!
But everyone will know eventually!
Our superiors can no longer be trusted!
Mr. Todo will seal both
the Right and Left Eyes somewhere safe!
Stop this, Mamushi!
Don't act on your own!
At least make your accusations openly
in front of everyone!
Our superiors are fools to keep Tatsuma
as the head priest, the suspicious man
who sold Myodha out
to the Knights of the True Cross!
Even Father is no different!
What would you have me say
to the likes of them?
And the Shima family is
the worst of the lot!
No matter what I say,
they'd just tell me
I'm overthinking things!
And there's no time for that!
It's begun sooner than I expected,
Master.
I've heard enough.
In that case,
I'll have the senior exorcists
standing by take her into custody.
Is that okay, Uwabami?
Mamushi is a grown woman.
It's fine.
Are you serious, Mamushi?
I don't need anyone to understand me.
All that I do, I do to save Myodha!
In that case,
out of the friendship we once shared,
I'll be the one to stop you!
Stop this, Mamushi! Juzo!
You two don't need to fight!
What's going on? Everything's shaking!
Over there!
Something must've happened
at the field office.
Rin, stay here.
Grr!
-Ow!
-Hey! No running off!
Don't forget what they decided
at the disciplinary hearing!
I get it!
You sure as hell don't!
Ow ow ow ow ow!
Still…
Oh, well. Come with me!
This shaking is no earthquake!
It's an intruder! Get to the Deep Keep!
Hey! What happened?
There's an emergency in the Deep Keep!
What the hell is that?
The ceiling, it's rotting away!
Mamushi!
Hello there, Mr. Shima.
So good to see you again.
Todo!
You weasel!
What's your reason for tricking Mamushi?
A weasel, eh?
I like it! This time, however,
I am merely assisting Ms. Hojo.
It's as he says!
Mr. Todo has nothing to do with this!
You're… being tricked!
Can't you see that you're being
completely deceived by Todo, Mamushi!
Don't! What are you doing?
Stop!
The ones being deceived… are all of you!
I can't believe it, the traitor…
…was Mamushi?
Where did they vanish to?
Quiet down! Everyone, calm yourselves!
We need to regroup!
Long time no see, Dad.
Ryuji! I-It's been a while!
That's quite a cockscomb you have there!
Where are you going?
I'd love to stay and chat,
but I have to get after Mamushi.
Would you mind letting go?
Go after Mamushi?
All in all, the reason she betrayed us,
the reason we're in this mess,
all of it is your fault!
What were you doing
instead of attending the meeting?
Suguro!
Who's that?
Suguro's dad.
Start talking, Dad.
Did you betray us like Mamushi said?
O-Of course not!
If that's true, say what's really going on
right here in front of everyone!
What's really going on…
It's a secret.
I can't tell this secret to anyone.
Not even my own son.
How can you say that
after what just happened?
Anyway, I must go after
Mamushi right away.
Ryuji, do as your mom and teachers say
and stay out of trouble.
Got it?
Don't pull the dad act on me!
Don't try to act like a dad
only when it suits you!
If you're gonna take off
without explaining yourself,
then you're not my father…
You're nobody to me!
Give me a break! You're not my father -
you're nobody to me!
Don't ever let me see you trying
to act like my father again!
That boy… is my son.
And I'm taking him back!
Dad!
Look, I have to go.
Forgive me, all right?
Wait.
Hey! When did he--
-O-Okumura!
-Why are you walking away?
-You're his dad, aren't you?
-Rin?
Is this okay with you? Well, is it?
And you, Suguro!
Don't be such an--
-Bon!
-Rin!
Bon! Are you all right?
Bon!
W-Was there a flash of light just now?
I don't know what went down
between you two,
but let me tell you that
you're both gonna regret this later!
Listen up! Apologize to your dad!
While you still can!
This is none of your business!
Stay out of this!
Don't write off your old man so easily!
You're one to talk!
Now, now. Rin, Ryuji.
Why not patch things up here, okay?
Go wherever you want,
but just go away!
And never come back!
-I used to think you were cool!
-Rin!
Man, was I wrong about you, Suguro!
What's that?
What's happening to him?
Blue flame?
It can't be!
Excuse me, coming through.
That's enough, Rin!
It ain't like…
Damn it, Rin! Down, boy!
It ain't like…
I want to be Satan's son!
But it's different with you!
Tell me I'm wrong!
Apologize to your dad!
It'll be too late when he's dead!
Don't make the same mistake I did!
Apologize to him right now!
Bon!
Juzo!
I'm sorry to cut in. But please get away.
Mephisto had secretly spared
Satan's spawn and had him raised.
This boy, he's…
Renzo's friend is…
Can it really be true?
Rin, calm down.
Have you forgotten the conditions
they laid out at the hearing?
If you flare up again,
you'll be designated
an exorcism target and put down.
Right now…
I'm having an important conversation!
Stay out of it! Hag!
"Hag?"
What in the world?
Rin? Rin!
Dumbass.
Hey. Can somebody gimme a hand
putting this idiot in isolation?
He's out cold, so it's okay now!
Commander Kirigakure.
Director! I'm ever so sorry
for making such a scene!
I assume I will receive
an explanation for this later?
Yes! Of course!
Rin!
Rin!
You’re wrong. You have to grab hold
of what you’re searching for
If nothing changes even if you cry
Then it doesn’t matter whether you cry
or laugh, so I thought
The reason I couldn’t protect
what’s precious to me
Was because I was weak, or so I thought
Why do I exist here and now?
I don’t care that no one knows,
as long as you're with me
The crowd point their fingers
at the fire burning indiscriminately
I will definitely become strong
and protect anyone
Thinking of the one I loved,
I'll sweep away this darkness
with my own hand

Episode 5: Mysterious Connections
Perhaps the strain was too much for you.
Look after Rin, you hear?
An even more potent miasma…
I don't believe it,
Todo's objective is to--
He flared up, and everybody saw it.
That idiot!
Watch over me, Fujimoto!
I've brought you all here for one reason.
To smoke out the traitor in our midst!
