(Lelouch reveals the Black Knights to the world.)
Lelouch Lamperouge (as Zero): People! Fear us, or rally behind us as you see fit! We are the Black Knights!
Cécile Croomy: Black Knights?
Lloyd Asplund: Ironic, isn't it? The terrorists referring to themselves as knights?
Zero: We of the Black Knights stand with all those who have no weapons to wield…regardless of whether they be Elevens or Britannians! The Japan Liberation Front cowardly took innocent Britannian civilians hostage, and they mercilessly executed them! It was a wanton and meaningless act; therefore, they have been punished…
Diethard Ried: You heard me right! I said let it run! Liable?! I'll be the one responsible for this!
Zero: …just as former Viceroy Clovis was punished for ordering the slaughter of countless unarmed Elevens. We cannot stand by and allow such cruelty to be carried out, and so we made him pay for his actions. I will not repudiate battle on a fair and level field, but neither will I tolerate a one-sided massacre of the weak by the strong. The only ones who should kill are those who are prepared to be killed! Wherever oppressors abuse their power by attacking those who are powerless, we shall appear again, no matter how mighty or formidable our foe may be!
Kallen Kouzuki: (Thinking.) Knights…for justice?
Zero: Those of you with power, fear us! Those of you without it, rally behind us! We, the Black Knights, shall be the ones who stand in judgment of this world!

Mao: [is riding on the carousel] C.C., your mind is so quiet! It's the only one I can't read! You really are the best there is!
C.C.: As childish as ever, I see.
Mao: I'm a prince on a white stallion…and a prince has to rescue the princess! [gets off the carousel and laughs] Does that make you happy, C.C.?
C.C.: Mao, we talked about this before. I told you that you and I--

Recording of C.C.'s voice: Thank you, Mao. Mao! Mao.
C.C.: Stop it!
[flash back to Mao's younger days as an orphan]
Mao: BE QUIET!!!
C.C.: Don't listen to them. Just listen to the sound of my voice. That's it. Since my mind is the only one you can't read, and you can only be happy when you're with me, I will stay with you always. Yes…I'm right here, so you don't need to worry.
[flash forward to the present day]
Mao: C.C., you're the only one! The only one I want, forever! Lelouch doesn't matter at all! [walks towards C.C.] If you'll just come with me--

Mao: Aw, he deceived you. Never told you he's Zero.
Shirley: [gasps and drops her bag] Who are you?! What do you want?!
Mao: The same mouth that ordered your father's death stole a kiss from your tender lips. He's a very bad man, and you like it. [Shirley shudders as he walks towards her] Punishment must be measured out, to him…and to you.
Shirley: To me?
Mao: I know everything. All that happened that night.

[Shirley stands aside as Viletta approaches the unconscious Lelouch, kneels next to him, and grabs him by the hair]
Viletta: Well, well, what a shocker. The student is Zero himself. A Britannian? [laughs evilly before letting go of Lelouch's hair] When I bring him to Viceroy Cornelia, she'll make me a noble! Not just a knight of honor, real nobility! And he's still alive, too! What kind of grand execution will they have in store for him. [stands up to face Shirley] Of course, you'll be rewarded too--
[Viletta gasps, as Shirley is now pointing her gun at her]
Viletta: Stupid of me. He's your boyfriend, isn't he?! [charges towards Shirley]
Shirley: Lulu! [guns down Viletta]
[flash forward to the present day]
Mao: So you're a killer, too. Just like Zero.

[shoots C.C. once more] I understand! C.C., you must listen to me! I've built a big, brand-new house in Australia! A very quiet, white, immaculate, special house! But to get to Australia, you'll need to take an airplane, and there isn't very much room. [starts walking away from C.C.] The thing is, C.C., you're a little too big to bring on a plane. [picks up a chainsaw] So that's why… [starts up the chainsaw]…I'm going to make you compact! It'll take no time at all! [saws right through a metal signpost, seemingly as if to prove his point]
C.C.: Is this your revenge? You're punishing me?
Mao: Oh, no. I'm not. I'm not, I'm not, I'm not, I'm not at all! [turns towards C.C. and walks towards her] I'm showing you my gratitude!
Lelouch Lamperouge: [via prerecorded message played through Clovisland's television system] So this is the place that you picked.
[Mao turns off his chainsaw as he looks at the screen]
Lelouch: A place where there'd be no one else's thoughts to bother you. That narrowed it way down.
Mao: Lelouch.
Lelouch: Since your Geass has a total maximum range of 500 meters, it can't reach me here at Tokyo Tower.
Mao: [laughs and claps] That's true, that's very true! But what can you do from so far away, hmm? After taking all that trouble to hack into the system, what's you

Mao: Get your hands off of me, father-killer!
[Suzaku is paralyzed in shock]
Mao: You killed your father seven years ago. Heh. He called for do-or-die resistance, and you thought stopping him would end the war. What a childish idea. The fact is, you're a murderer!
Suzaku: That's not true! I just-- I--
Mao: How lucky for you that no one ever found out. All the adults lied to protect you.
Lelouch: But all the reports said his suicide was a protest against the military actions.
Mao: A big, fat lie, all of it!
Lelouch: A lie?
Suzaku: I didn't have any choice! If I didn't, Japan would have--
Mao: That's how you justify it in retrospect? Well, it explains your death wish![Suzaku gasps] You want to save people's lives? It's your own wretched soul you're trying to save! That's why you're always charging into danger, placing yourself on the edge of death!
[Suzaku falls to his knees and wails in anguish]
Mao: You're no hero! You're just trying to wash the blood off your hands! A little brat begging to be punished!
Lelouch: MAO!!![activates Geass]NEVER SPEAK AGAIN!!!
Mao: What-- No!
[Mao is overcome by Lelouch's command and is reduced to unintelligible babbling; Lelouch charges towards Mao and attempts to punch him, only to miss as Mao starts walking away]

C.C.: I did love you, Mao.

C.C.: [Narrating] In this world, evil can arise from the best intentions. And there is good that can come from evil intentions. How then should Lelouch's actions be taken? Every man has his day of judgement, does he not? Geass: He who uses this inhuman power will find his heart isolated; whether he wants it that way or not. Thus he plummets into the abyss that lies good and evil. But if a man can climb out of that abyss and into the light, then that man has the soul of a king.
