Question: What did Hayato, Umenosuke, and Hikokuro bring home? Movie title: Harakiri Movie plot: Edo, 1630. Tsugumo Hanshiro arrives at the estate of the Ii clan and says that he wishes to commit seppuku within the courtyard of the palace. To deter him Saito Kageyu (Rentaro Mikuni), the Daimyo's senior counselor, tells Hanshiro the story of another ronin, Chijiiwa Motome formerly of the same clan as Hanshiro. Motome arrived at the palace a few months earlier and made the same request as Hanshiro. Infuriated by the rising number of "suicide bluffs", the three most senior samurai of the clanYazaki Hayato, Kawabe Umenosuke, and Omodaka Hikokuropersuaded Saito to force Motome to follow through and kill himself. Upon examining Motome's swords, their blades were found to be made of bamboo. Enraged that any samurai would "pawn his soul", the House of Ii forced Motome to disembowel himself with his own bamboo blade, making his death slow, agonizingly painful, and deeply humiliating. Despite this warning, Hanshiro insists that he has never heard of Motome and says that he has no intention of leaving the Ii palace alive.

Henry's wife Laura and son Peter return from their vacation in England. Sajani is distraught but Henry assures Sajani that she is the one he loves. Sajani's violent husband finds out about her infidelity and brutally beats her. Sajani flees to Henry's house; Henry instructs T.K. to take her away into hiding.
