Thank you.

Now we are real friends indeed.

Friend.

Don't move.

Don't fight back.

Freeze.

They have guns.

Hurry.

Faster.

Hurry.

Block the front.

Stop.

This is my room.

I am an American.

Get out of here.

Go inside.

Get the woman out of here.

Go away.

Shut up.

What do you want?

The Imperial Army wants to inspect this room.

Please open the door.

Is it a Chinese animal?

Yes.

I have seen it before.

Yours?

I study in church school.

Give me?

Thank you.

So many people.

Friend.

Friend.

Don't be afraid.

Don't be nervous.

The Imperial Army is actually here

to borrow a few women

to entertain them.

They will be returned in three days.

That's not right.

Women can't be borrowed.

Who are you?

Mr. Rabe's secretary.

He's Mr Rabe's secretary.

Get out of my way.

We are partners.

That's my wife and her sister.

You must keep your promise.

Mr. Tang.

Don't pull me.

Mommy.

Mr. Tang.

Sister.

He went to the Safety Zone.

He saw women with curly hair

and eyebrows lipsticks.

He knew they were prostitutes.

In Japan,

any women with curly hair and

lipstick are prostitutes?

She asked if any women in Japan with

curly hair and lipstick are prostitutes.

And if we refuse?

If you refuse

they will send troops to destroy

the Safety Zone.

It only took three days to conquer Nanking.

It won't take an hour to destroy here.

You know their power.

You have no choice.

China lost the war.

Nanking is no more the capital.

Your people told him that there

are soldiers with weapons.

That's a very big problem.

Today,

one hundred of you

will be leaving us.

I'm so sorry.

Today,

one hundred women will be leaving us.

The Japanese have threatened us that

if we don't hand over... -

hand over one hundred women,

they will destroy the refugee camp.

The women will be required to... -

they will be required to give

comfort to Japanese soldiers.

All Nanking women are here.

Great.

The Japanese said,

you would be returned in three weeks.

In return of your sacrifice,

they will supply the camp

with food, clothes and coal for the winter.

That means

our children will make it through the winter.

I am so sorry.

Mr. Rabe.

I'll go.

Please come to the front.

I'll go.

I'll go.

That's enough.

Senior soldiers shall have priority.

Pay first before getting a condom

to prevent VD infection.

Each person shall have 15 minutes.

Rice?

Give me a smile.

Smile.

Smile.

Yuriko, why are you here?

Sorry.

Kadokawa.

Kadokawa.

Are you finished?

Thank you.

You are too noisy.

But it feels good.

Sir, the food supply report.

Let's talk about it tomorrow.

Mr. Tomita, the pass... -

Not now.

You just need to sign it.

Is it Mr. Tomita?
