Kagura: What? Didn't you say you wanted to be free? Well let me help you be free!
Soyohime: Sure, I want to be free, but... I'd just be causing you trouble if we kept this up...
Kagura: That ain't no trouble at all! After all, we promised each other to be friends for a day! You don't need to have a reason to help a friend out, that's what we Edo girls do! I still have so many cool things to show you!
Soyohime: ...Yes. We are friends. But...
Kagura: Huh?
Soyohime: ...That's exactly why I can't cause you any more trouble. Thank you very much, Ms. Queen. It was just for half a day, but you made me feel like an average girl. It was wonderful. [bows] Well, I'll be going.

Shinpachi: [watching TV with Gintoki] So the princess likes to eat sukonbu, eh.
Gintoki: What are you, stupid? That's a big fat lie! She's just acting like ordinary people to make us think royals can be lovable! I bet when she gets back to the palace, she chows down on tons of sushi! Now, take a look at a real sukonbu girl. [turns towards Kagura, who is sleeping] You can see how poor she is just by looking at the way she sleeps! That's reality for you.

Gintoki: [wearing a pink apron] Afternoon…it’s Cooking Today…
Otae: Today’s menu is omu rice! It’s popular with the oldest grandmothers and the youngest children! Right, sensei?

Kagura: I definitely sliced it into small pieces.
Gintoki: You’re supposed to cut vegetables this way. Oi! [throws an onion in the air and dices it with his bokuto] Yep, that’s how it’s done.
