you get out of here.

Who's he really?

An idiot. Don't mind him.

Fine, I'll leave now.

See,

I'm the only man for you.

You're such a fool!

If it wasn't for your foreign face...

I like it when you're angry.

I wouldn't even look at you!

Harder.

I'll never be into you.

Come here.

Get off me!

I love that!

I love seeing you walk away.

I love seeing that ass.

Mo!

Mo!

That night,

Major Li didn't go far.

He stayed at the paper

shop across the street.

I know,

he could have changed into

civilian clothing and fled.

I said you can't go in!

Little sister,

we won't sh*t or piss in there.

We just want to wash up.

We always wash before bed-time.

Bed-time?

Morning for you is night for us.

Little sister...

Don't call me sister!

You want to start a fight?

The bathroom is for people.

You mean we are not people?

You know what you are!

You've got some nerve!

We won't share the bathroom with you!

What a temper!

Sorry, go back to your rat hole.

What the hell?

She's humiliating us.

She thinks we are filthy.

Little b*tch!

You're the b*tch!

Watch your mouth!

Ling, want to see a good fight?

Really?

I thought you'd only fight for Mo.

Let's pull down your pants

and see what you are made of.

Don't touch me, you filthy whore!

Let's find out if you really

are cleaner than us.

Stop it! It's not fair!

I don't have to hit you,

I can just crush you with my butt!

I don't give a damn, I'm going in.

I won't let you go in!

Stop fighting!

What's going on?

Stop!

What are you doing?

Are you crazy?

We are just kids!

Hua, that's enough.

No, it's not over!

I won't let you go in!

Japanese!

Go to the cellar, I'll tell the others!

Search the yard!

Split up!

Hurry! Go to the cellar!

Come in, hurry!

Don't shut it, let the girls in.

Let the girls in!

Hurry!

Don't move!

Lieutenant Asakura!

Come over here!

Upstairs!

Hurry!

Let's move the shelves!

There are girls here!

Search everywhere!

Capture them alive!

Lieutenant Asakura!

Come up here!

We've got virgins!

Hurry!

Stop!

Girls! Girls!

Stop!

Stop!

Stop!

This is a house of the Lord!

These are children!

You are breaking the laws

of man and of God!

No soldiers here!

You have no business being here!

I am the priest!

And I command you,

in the name of the Father to leave now!

Girls, you come up here now!

Come up these stairs,

and stand behind me.

You're honorable men,

behave honorably!

I'll eat you up.

Stop! Stop this! Stop! Run!

Stop this! Don't...

Chinese soldiers!

Get them!

Let's go!

Assemble outside! Roll call!

Prepare for combat!

The sniper is across the street!

To your left!

It's a trap! Find the enemy!

Damn it!
