Iori Izaka: [to Sanjuro, who had just been woken by the youths' loud entry]
Let's follow them for now. Circumstances will decide whether we attack or not. What do you say?
Sanjûrô Tsubaki: [yawning]

Sanjuro - Superintendent's Cooperative Response to Iori's Story
Iori Izaka: [recounting his story about his falling out with his ugly-yet-noble uncle]
I met the Superintendent.
Samurai:
What did he say?
Iori Izaka:
He was cooperative. At first he looked embarrassed, but the story of my uncle shocked him. He pondered. "All right", he said, "I'll help you. I'll talk with your group. Gather them quickly. That's what he said.
Samurai:
He's great!
Samurai:
Right!
Samurai:
A powerful support for us. Not a good-natured scarecrow.
Sanjûrô Tsubaki:
Wait.
Sanjûrô Tsubaki:
An interesting story.
Iori Izaka:
Don't let him go!
Sanjûrô Tsubaki:
Fool! If I wanted to run, why would I speak?
Iori Izaka:
Why are you here?
Sanjûrô Tsubaki: [Rubs his chin]
Free room overnight. By the way, overhearing has a merit. They say outsiders can be good judges. Listen. I say the Chamberlain is alright, but the Superintendent is no good.
Samurai:
Don't insult him!
Sanjûrô Tsubaki: [He sits down on one of the straw mats]
Take it easy. I haven't seen them. So I'm not cheated by their looks. The Chamberlain is ugly, isn't he? Right? But from your story I judge he's a great man. He doesn't mind being called a fool. Great! But the Superintendent... you mentioned his name with admiration. That means he looks attractive, right? But people aren't what they seem. Be careful.
