Code Geass Season 1 DVD Magazine 2 : Best phrase award (Stage 14 ~25) Crack / Not Canon

The best phrase award videos are specials from the Code Geass dvd, with the best voted scene/lines of the show being commented by some of the cast; While it's obviously very crackish since the characters break the 4th wall, it's still very good fun and it even allowed us to learn what was the full line of Stage 14 infamous Lelouch dialogue to Shirley, while he was erasing her memories, since it's mentionned twice in there, as a fact, not as speculation. So some good Shirley/Lelouch food I guess, and some good crack for those who are fond of this kind of content. This post is about best scenes from Stage 14 to 25.

DVD Magazine II: Best Phrase Award (Stage 14 ~ 25)

Milly and Shirley introduce the corner; Shirley: "This is also where we bully Lelouch!". They then introduce themselves:

Omniscient Other-dimension Milly Ashford ("In other words, I am... God!") Omniscient Other-dimension Shirley Fenette ("If you're a God, then I'm an... Angel!")

Lelouch makes his dramatic appearance here: And I'm the protagoni--

Shirley: SHIRLEY PUNCH!!!

(Lelouch goes flying.)

Shirley: I get really annoyed when I'm not the one in the spotlight.

Milly: (to Lelouch) "We'll call for you later, so wait patiently, you."

******************

10. [Cornelia] With that you are now a Knight, in name and in fact. Go, Kururugi Suzaku!

Milly gushes over Cornelia (she's apparently a huge fan of Cornelia and her No-Nonsense personality); Shirley then says, a little too innocently:

"So I guess Nina goes for Euphie, and Kaichou's all for Cornelia."

Milly: (sweatdrop) No no no, it's just that I find it really MOERU, this scene of Cornelia finally acknowledging and entrusting her hopes to Suzaku, who she once considered an enemy. Oh, I meant the hot-blooded kind of Moe, by the way.

Shirley: Actually, I think Cornelia, for all her hostility, was one of the first characters to acknowledge Suzaku.

Milly: (surprised) Really?

Shirley: Apparently Cornelia ordered Suzaku to execute Toudou because she thought it would be an achievement no one would dare cast doubt on. She did it for his sake.

Milly: (sigh) I don't think any normal person would do that "for someone's sake".

*******************

9. [Chigusa] I... I don't mind being an Eleven..

Shirley and Milly both sigh wistfully at this little, quiet love blooming against a backdrop of war and death.

Milly: Though I'll admit I was surprised: does losing one's memory result in such a drastic change of personality?

Shirley: I think Villetta had this side to her all along, actually.

Milly: (grin) I see. And then we have a certain someone whose personality stays exactly the same even with her memory gone.

Shirley: (pout) Are you talking about me!?

Milly, without missing a beat, changes the subject--

8. [Shirley] The morning will come. [...] Well, there are a lot of sad things you can't just forget, but... But the morning will come, right?

Milly: The morning will come... what a lovely line! Shirley was trying to cheer Lelouch up here, you know, even though she was still grieving over the loss of her father and all.

Shirley: (a little lacking in humility) Yes, that's right. I've never seen anyone's daughter turn out so strong and fine! I can totally understand why Lelouch would say something like, "If there's a next life for the both of us, let us be lovers.".

[***note: This is the first official? confirmation of what Lelouch was trying to say there, AFAIK]

Milly: (grin) Well, talk is free, after all, as I'm sure Lelouch knows very well.

Shirley: (annoyed) Would you like a Shirley Punch too, Kaichou?

Milly quickly turns her "offer" down...

*********************

7. [Schneizel] It's true. Nary a flower nor butterfly flitting in a ball shine brighter than you do on the battlefield. Yes, you're just like The Flash.

Shirley: I'm surprised Schneizel managed to say something like that with a completely straight face.

Milly: He's a... "People-Killer". (*note: as opposed to "Lady-killer")

Shirley: (surprised) People-Killer?

Milly: He's the sort of person who knows what someone wants to be told, deep down, and he tells them exactly that. For example, Cornelia, who deeply admired Marianne the Flash, was told "You're just like the Flash herself."

Shirley: (sweatdrop) When you put it like that, his motives don't sound all that... pure.

Milly: And that's how both Cecile-san and General Bartley fell prey to his charms.

Shirley: General Bartley, too...?

Milly: To all the li'l kittens in front of the screen -- be careful of men like him!

Shirley: And now let's call on our first guest...

*********************

6. [Kallen] LIKE HELL I'D DO IT!!!! [...] Hmph! The only person capable of ordering me around is Zero, and him alone.

Kallen: LIKE HELL I'D DO IT!!!! (sigh) ...Hello. Kouzuki Kallen -- Japanese -- here.

Milly: (sweatdrop) Wow, that's some point she's making there. Not to mention she's in a real sulk right now...

Shirley: We've never seen this Sulky side of Kallen, have we?

Frail Kallen: Um, could you please refrain from using the word "Sulky"?

Milly: (grin) SO! How is it? How do you feel about Zero -- the only person allowed to order you around -- turning out to be Lelouch himself?

Frail Kallen: (sigh) I... really don't want to acknowledge this as fact.

Shirley: Was it totally unexpected for you?

Kallen: (explodes) WELL YEAH, OBVIOUSLY! Lelouch's just a bratty no-gooder, all talk and nothing else!

Milly: Completely different from the Zero you admired, huh.

Shirley: So... what are you going to do when Lelouch orders you around in the future?

Kallen: (sigh) ...That would be... a problem, yes...

Milly: (surprised) I thought you might like Lelouch better now.

Kallen: Oh, I wonder about that! Or rather, can we pretend all that never happened? Who should I ask? The Director!? The scriptwriters!?

Milly: (sweatdrop) Um... I think that's probably impossible now.

Kallen: (sigh) What'll become of us in the sequel...?

***********************

5. [Zero] Goodbye, Euphie. You were perhaps... my first love...

4. [C.C.] It's fine...! ...No, I suppose I am a little worried. Win, Lelouch. Win against your past, and the consequences of your actions.

Shirley calls on their second guest...

Lelouch: Lelouch Lamperouge.

Kallen: (softly, to herself; but with clear distaste) Ugh, he's here.

Lelouch begins to complain about the show: the long wait-time, the lack of hairstylists and make-up artists, getting Shirley Punch'd, etc. etc..

Shirley ignores him, and continues on: "Lelouch's Women Problems, No. 5 and No. 4, revealed." (annoyed, sulky look)

Milly and Kallen: (simultaneous evil grins)

Lelouch: That's an invasion of privacy.

Milly: Still, you can't possibly deny that you've been behaving like a total playboy, especially when compared to Suzaku and Rivalz.

Kallen: (obnoxious smirk) Hmm~m? So Lelouch liked the pink princess, eh?

Shirley: (annoyed) And he fed me that line about reincarnation and becoming lovers and stuff in Narita, too!

Milly: And after that he kissed C.C.-san!

Kallen: (obnoxious smirk) Just what is going on with you?

Lelouch: What is going on here, is what I'd like to know. What is this, some kind of class reunion!?

Frail Kallen: Please reflect on your actions, Lelouch-kun~

Lelouch: ...Is no one planning on asking relevant questions about my Best Phrase?

Milly: Hey hey -- so what was it about Euphemia-sama that you loved?

Lelouch: (>__<) Learn to be more subtle with your questions!

Milly: (whine) I want to know! This episode was really depressing, you know.

Lelouch: It can't be helped!

Shirley: (annoyed) "It can't be helped"? That's all you have to say about your actions!?

Lelouch: (>__<) No, I didn't mean it that way!

Kallen: (sigh) ...I ...think I've been seriously let down...

Lelouch: (SHOCK)

Frail Kallen: (in a sort of depressed, guess-it-can't-be-helped voice) Sorry, you'll have to excuse me... (leaves)

Milly: ...Wow, she really is depressed about this.

******************

3. [Orange] Good Morning'd.

Lelouch: (SHOCK)

Milly and Shirley start fangirling over "Orange-san".

Shirley: (fangirl-mode) I love the way he says it... so sexy!

Lelouch: (annoyed) This... qualifies as a Famous Quote? It is clearly grammatically unsound.

Milly: But it's funny, isn't it?

Lelouch: (annoyed) So you only criterion for this is... how "funny" it is?

Shirley: Yep!

Lelouch: ...Are you saying I should be funny, too?

Milly: Nah, it's alright -- you're funny enough as is.

Lelouch: (SHOCK)

Shirley: Hey Lelou, why did Orange-san turn out that way, anyway?

Lelouch: He was experimented on by Bartley.

Shirley: What kind of experiment?

Lelouch: Bartley was the person who used C.C. as a guinea pig. Upon Orange's awakening, the data for "Code-R" can be seen on the monitor screen. ...In other words... that's how it is.

Shirley: Huh!? I don't get it at all!

Lelouch: That's alright. The viewers in front of the TV know what I'm talking about.

Shirley: Ooh, that just pisses me off!

******************

2. [Euphie] Suzaku! I um... you... um... uuummm... You are to fall in love with me! [...] In return, I will love you!

Shirley: (in total admiration) I can't believe she actually said that!

Milly: (grin) That's because you don't have the courage to say things like that.

Shirley: Oh, just leave it! (fangirl mode) I have this scene recorded, with the title: "The Scorching Fastball of Love"!

Milly: And Suzaku's really something, isn't he, to be able to catch this "Scorching Fastball". (grin) Lelouch, you're jealous, aren't you?

Lelouch: (quietly) ...no, not really...

Shirley: I wonder which one of the two he's jealous of?

Milly and Lelouch: >__<''

Milly: Um, that's not something you'd normally think about, is it?

Shirley: (innocently) I'm just speaking out on behalf of the female fanbase.

Milly: Come to think of it, I wonder how many people listened in on this confession.

Shirley: Oh right, this was done over a communications channel, wasn't it? I'm surprised you thought of it.

Milly: C'mon, this is a public confession we're talking about here! Everyone wants to know!

Lelouch: That was a private channel, for military use only. The only person who overheard was the operator -- Cecile Croomy.

Milly: Oh, I see. Must have been awkward for Cecile-san. Not like she can just plug her ears and not listen.

Lelouch: Well, after that, I suppose Schneizel might have checked the communications records and said, "Ahahahaha, that was truly a masterpiece, Euphie." </schneizel>

Shirley: (sweatdrop) I can actually imagine him doing that, yes.

Lelouch: By the way, Euphie's the sort of person who does the things she wants to do passionately and wholeheartedly -- while completely oblivious to what's going on around her. She's been like that ever since she was little.

Milly: So that's what you like about her, huh~

Lelouch: (>__<) Stop that! Is this some kind of grade schoolers' pajama party!?

Shirley changes the subject --

*********************

1. [Lelouch] I'll welcome you with open arms. After all, we're friends, aren't we? Fuhahaha... hahahahaha... hahahahaha!

Lelouch: In the end, every heart is shot down by my beautiful lines!

Milly: Has there ever been a protagonist capable of using the word "Friend" in such an evil sense? This unprecedented form of dark villainy has won critical praise!

Lelouch: ...You're interpreting things in an evil light again.

Shirley: But that's the straight-on interpretation of it, isn't it?

Milly: Yes... it just screams "BRING IT! YOU'LL BE THE ONE GOING DOWN! I'LL BEAT YOU TO A PULP AND SEND YOU OFF CRYING!".

Shirley: Are we mistaken?

Lelouch: (sweat) ...

Milly: Looking back on it now, I suppose this is what he had to say after Suzaku told him "I'm coming to kill you now."

Lelouch: Hmph, I don't care for your interpretations. We're good friends, Suzaku and me.

Shirley: "The person who's been tied down by rules and orders has finally come to kill Zero! That deserves a maniacal laugh!" ...by Lelouch's inner monologue, something like that?

Lelouch: CAN'T YOU LISTEN TO WHAT I'M SAYING FOR ONCE!?

Milly: But you set a proper trap, didn't you?

Lelouch: But of course! I don't see any point in fighting an idiot with reflexes and nothing much else fair and square. My best character trait is my intelligence!

Milly: (sweatdrop) I think that sort of thinking is exactly what's been rubbing Suzaku the wrong way all this time.

Shirley then asks Lelouch about his thoughts on his role in the sequel; Lelouch pauses to think for a moment.

Milly: Moar liek... are you even in the sequel?

Lelouch: (SHOCK) Me, not in the sequel!?

Shirley: Come to think of it, there was that one gunshot in the final scene... BANG!

Milly: Alright, hypothetically speaking: If you were in the sequel, what would you do?

Lelouch: (annoyed) ... As mentioned before... I won't change! My goals, my methods, the things I want to protect... my wrath, too!

Milly: That's... kind of hard to understand, but I guess in a nutshell he's saying "I will still be shamelessly doing all sorts of dirty tricks unbecoming of a protagonist in the sequel! Be sure to tune in!" -- something like that.

Lelouch: (>__<) ...I get it... fine... ...whatever...

Shirley: (sweatdrop) He... acknowledged it.

Lelouch then Geasses the viewers into watching the sequel every week.

THE END

Why does Shirley have to die?

One of the most frequent comments I found while browsing when I entered this fandom and it bothered me greatly was that Shirley's death was useless, which reflected a lack of understanding of the series and the character of Shirley and her relationship with Lelouch and Suzaku. So today I'll explain what the effects of Shirley's murder were.

Broadly speaking, Shirley's murder serves as a catalyst between the first and second half of the second season. Likewise, Shirley's sad murder resonates with the main theme of the series and influences the narrative arcs of Lelouch and Suzaku.

1. Shirley's death was what pushed Lelouch to change his plans for the Geass Cult. Instead of controlling the orphans who had been turned into Geass users, Lelouch decided to destroy the Geass Cult by decimating the children and scientists who participated in the project by organizing a clandestine operation with the Black Knights.

1.1. This operation will later become one of the reasons why the Black Knights will betray Lelouch. It's information that is leaked to Asahina, a member of the Four Holy Swords, and reaches through him Tohdoh, who, together with Ohgi, were the ones who convinced the rest of the Black Knights that they were angry with Zero for abandoning them in the middle of the takeove of the Tokyo Settlement. So the massacre of the Geass Cult influenced the betrayal of Tohdoh, one of the pillars in the Order of the Black Knights and most loyal to their leader.

1.2. Additionally, the Black Knights' attack on the Geass Cult resulted in the death of V.V. and attracted the Emperor who took the code from V.V. and then attempted to initiate the Ragnarök Connection in episode 15, but C.C. prevented this by sealing her code and suppressing her memories. Something that will influence Lelouch's isolation. Also, in the massacre of the Geass Cult, Lelouch captured Cornelia, which will be important in the future.

2. Shirley's death was what pushed Suzaku over the edge and motivated him to coerce Kallen through refrain to get confirmation that Zero was behind her murder. About to do so, Suzaku realized that he was about to become completely corrupted and begins to rethink his beliefs and methods for the first time. It's because of this incident with Kallen that Suzaku is willing to reunite with Lelouch and team up with him, even if it means abandoning Britannia. But, well, Schneizel ambushes the two former friends and makes Lelouch believe that Suzaku betrayed him once again. Consequently, Lelouch is determined to kill Suzaku in revenge, but it turns out badly due to the cursed order he gave him long ago and which causes the total annihilation of the Tokyo Settlement, something that will mark a turning point in Suzaku's narrative arc and It will also affect Lelouch...

3. Shirley's death was a turning point in Lelouch and Rolo's relationship. It was a relationship in which love and hate were quite balanced, but, after this event, Lelouch leaned towards hate. I'll talk more about this point in my analysis of Rolo's motivations for killing Shirley, so that's all I'll say for now. I'll add that, if Mao made him realize that Geass can corrupt the user and Euphemia's death made Lelouch realize that Geass is an evil power, Shirley's death made Lelouch realize that Geass will condemn him to isolation (damn, Lelouch saw a lot of red flags and kept going; I don't know whether to call it idiocy or determination). At the same time, he realized how terrible the power of Geass is in the hands of a child and became terrified that all Geass users were like Rolo, which is why he thinks it is better to eradicate the Geass Cult and not control them.

4. Shirley's death is linked to the main theme of the series (will) and, in a certain way, influenced the epiphany that Lelouch will have in the final stretch of the series. Rolo didn't get into a vehicle, he drove to Shirley's house and got out to shoot her. No. Shirley was murdered, following her will. She abandoned the security force that was guarding her because she wanted to offer her help to Lelouch. To paraphrase Lelouch's words to Schneizel in the series' penultimate episode, people are actively seeking happiness, and for Shirley, her happiness was with Lelouch. Even though Lelouch erases her memory over and over again to protect her, Shirley will always do what her will dictates, and that includes falling in love with him again. Shirley's firm resolve, added to that of other characters, is what teaches Lelouch to value human beings' will and constant pursuit of happiness.

In short, Shirley's death is what leads to most of the events that occur in the second part of R2. Without that, the Zero Requiem doesn't even take place. For all this, it is ridiculous that the alternate universe continues with the same events as the canonical universe, but, well, nothing makes sense in the alternate universe (hence it is complete garbage and I'll maintain this statement until the last day of my existence.)

Having said that. If anyone still wants to be angry about Shirley's death, they have to change their focus on her. The point isn't that Shirley's murder adds nothing to the plot (we already saw that it isn't true); but this seems to show that Shirley is a "woman in refrigerator." This is a term coined by Gail Simone to refer to female characters who face disproportionate harm, which will serve as a plot device to motivate male characters. The term was used to talk about situations in Western comics, but can be extrapolated to other media. Is Shirley a "woman in refrigerator"? I would say yes, but I think that term should be applied when there are female characters who have great potential and the authors don't exploit it, but rather prefer to reduce them to a motivation for the current male hero. And Shirley is not Kallen (an action heroine and Knightmare pilot, whose talent and skill can change the flow of a battle), she is not C.C. (an Immortal Witch who knows all the secrets of Geass and is clandestinely working with our protagonist's worst enemy for her own interests), she is not Euphemia (a princess in the Holy Empire of Britannia who can challenge the status quo and change the system from the inside), she is not Nina (a prodigy in science, capable of creating a weapon of mass destruction). She's only Shirley. An innocent civilian trapped in a bloody war. She cannot contribute more than she can, so let's not ask for pears from the elm.

I really wanted to write this analysis! I just removed a thorn that was stuck. I feel better.

Code Geass picture drama are short scene which relates various events which happened in between episode or even before the beginning or after the end of the anime. All of them are canon to the anime, but some have been added within the flow due to the AU Release causing some confusion within the fandom.

I'll list in there, in the right order, all of those which are canon to the anime only; I also uploaded all of them (minus the 2nd picture drama of Season 1, because the content was too ecchi for the platform I used) so i'll link them so you can see those if you wish to.

In 2009 a.t.b., 10-year-old Lelouch vi Britannia carries his blind and paralyzed sister Nunnally on his back as he climbs the steps to a Shinto shrine in Japan. As Nunally asks him what a shrine is, Lelouch explains that it is the Japanese version of a church, and Nunnally asks if the Pope is the emperor of Japan. Lelouch says that Japan has an elected prime minister and that it's just a coincidence that Prime Minister, Genbu Kururugi's home is a Shinto shrine. As Nunnally asks Lelouch if he alright, carrying her along those stairs he reassures her, narrating about how at that time he didn't want for any japanese person to even touch Nunnally. After reaching the top of the stairs, Lelouch is shocked to find out that they'll be living in a shabby storeroom. As Nunnally asks what the room is like, Lelouch chooses to lie and says it has white walls and decorated windows. Lelouch spots somebody and demands that they come forward.

A boy dressed in a hakama comes out, claiming this place was his before they came in and asks them in a very condescending tone if Britannia plans to colonize Japan. Lelouch counters that Japan isn't much different as they are controlling other countris too, but underdevellopped ones and says that Suzaku should ask his father about that, as Suzaku calls him a liar. Suzaku insists that Lelouch is indeed a liar for he lies about the storehouse, asking im where the white walls and decorated windows are, pissing Lelouch off as he yells him to stop and charges forward. Suzaku easily knocks down Lelouch and begins to beat him up, when Nunnally cries out and asks Suzaku to stop. She says she'll do anything he asks, and he realizes that she's blind. Suzaku panics and quickly apologizes before running out of the room. Nunnally asks who that was, and Lelouch tells her it was Prime Minister Kururugi's son. Adult Lelouch then narrates that's how they first met and how Suzaku was his first friend, and the man who would become his worst rival.

The Drama begins as all the female members of Ashford Academy's Student Council are gathering while taking a bath. Milly apologizes to Kallen for not making her welcome party more exciting because of the announcement of Prince Clovis' s death which kinda killed the mood, even for her. Kallen replies that she doesn't mind it, but questions on why all of them are together in the bath especially her as well since she had already taken a shower earlier. However, Milly states that this is another way that they can all get to know each other better and implies that Shirley would be upset if Kallen actually went home wearing Lelouch's clothes. Shirley quickly shoots down Milly's statement and instead chooses to question as to why Lelouch was acting strangely after the announcement of Clovis' death ;Milly replies that Nunnally was also listening closely; Kallen then mentions that she noticed that Lelouch treated her differently than he does with Nunnally.

Milly jokingly states that it is because he loves his sister very much, which makes it complicated for some other people. Shirley follows up by asking Milly why she is staring at her and Milly ponders that it's a shame because she really has a killer body, and her beauty should be enough to knock Lelouch off. Shirley ask her to not peep at her and snap back that she has the best figure around; Milly ask her if that's the case and stands in her full glory, making an impression on everyone. As a soft voice says, Milly is intimidating everyone, Kallen quickly agrees before noticing Nina said that and that she looks utterly different without her glasses on. Milly agrees that she does and mentions that she has been trying to convince her all this time to wear contacts, taking her chance at teasing her; Kallen is confused as Milly stated "All this time" to which Nina replies that she and Milly grew up together because her grandfather worked in Milly's grandfather's company in developing knightmares. Kallen then makes the connexion with the Ashford name and excitingly ask if they are those who devellopped the Ganymede and the Io series; Milly is surprised to see that Kallen knows so much about what were only Knightmare prototype, leading Kallen to get back into her frail act while pretending she probably read about that in a book somewhere. Milly goes on talking about those never reached advanced stage because of the costs and how the compagny went bankrupt; Nina apologizes as she thinks it's because of her grand father but Milly denies it, putting the blame on her own grandfather, as he wasted money by throwing huge parties, all the time; Shirley notices Milly inheritated his taste for parties, to which Milly agrees but thinks you can only enjoy yourself like that when you are a student. Suddenly, Milly asks if Kallen is available the day after tomorrow to which she replies that she can't as she has to go to Tokyo Tower that day. Milly decides that it is fine and that she can just do it right now, by asking Kallen, what are her three sizes because they need it for costumes or events. Kallen ask her is that's cosplay and directly refuses when Milly agrees. With no choice left, Milly orders Shirley to hold Kallen back and proceeds to get her measurments. This leaves Kallen to become embarrassed and shout out loud.

Out on the Ashford Academy front lawn, Rivalz is working on his motorbike with Suzaku while they talk about how the latter first met Lelouch. Suzaku has just told him that Lelouch used to come over to visit during summer break when they were kids, but politely says that they had not spent much time together. Rivalz awkwardly asks him to stop being so formal as they are just classmates. Suzaku subsequently apologizes and speaks more casually. Since Lelouch is very secretive about his past, Rivalz says he is happy to have finally met someone who knew Lelouch when he was younger. When Rivalz asks Suzaku to hand him a ten-millimetre wrench, Suzaku corrects him with the proper size and expresses his familiarity with the bike. Suzaku fondly explains that a woman who owned the same bike used to help him a lot before joined the army and it was his job to maintain the bike. This person, however, has already passed away. After Suzaku says that he lives in the cramped military quarters at the university across the street, Rivalz asks if he wants to be his roommate at the dorms; a hint of loneliness in his voice. Suzaku declines as he has to attend to this duties there, but thanks Rivalz for the kind offer.

In the military quarters across the street, Cecile asks Lloyd to finish up the important paper work that will finalize their move into the university's space. Lloyd says he will leave it all up to her as he always does, noting how many years they have been working together. She tells him that it is wasteful to put off doing things for later and he replies that he sees "love" inside of her. Cecile is initially flustered. He then reasserts that it is love; love for research. Unamused by the joke, Cecile asks for authority over the general affairs of their engineering core and Lloyd grants it. Suzaku enters the building immediately after, stiffly reporting to duty according to military procedure. Cecile sternly tells Suzaku to simply say "I'm back" instead as social and military rank should not play part here. She insists that this military quarter should be treated like their home. After some hesitation, Suzaku assents and says "I'm back." Cecile and Lloyd then respond with a warm "Welcome home!".

However, Euphemia on the other hand states that out of all the swimsuits that Clovis designed, that one is the most appropriate for her. Euphemia tells her to put it on and helps her in doing so. Andreas Darlton and Guilford are seen standing outside guarding the dress room. Darlton can't wait to see Cornelia in a swimsuit and mentions on how his sons would be jealous right now if they were here. Guildford asks if he means the Glaston Knights and states that he respects Darlton for taking in orphans but thinks it's not appropriate to speak like that; Darlton then mentions how much of a stick up in his ass Guilford has, to which the knight can't disagree. After that, Guilford notes that even if both of them are bodyguards for the princesses and have to be in swimsuits he thinks Darlton might be going a tad bit overboard with hiding a gun in his swimming trunks to which Darlton replies that he might be right, as it's obviously visible (you can guess where the gun was put) We then jump to Suzaku who is sitting on the beach with Cecile asking her if it's really alright to be relaxing while they are supposed to be guards. Cecile states that it is alright since no one knows Cornelia is the surprised guest of the resort,and when Suzaku mentions Lloyd's absence she insists that she couldn't care less. Eventually, Suzaku compliments Cecile on her looking good in a swmisuit, making the lady all flustered by the compliment as he shouldn't tease a lady like that;

While Suzaku tries to explain he wasn't teasing, he is interrupted by a voice who has recgnized him ; It was Shirley, who has just arrived with the whole of the Ashford Student council; As Suzaku wonderd what they are doing her, Milly tells her that she was invited because her father is a local dignitary and she brought everyone with her ; Indeed Nunnally, Lelouch and Sayoko are also there. As Suzaku is surprised to see them, Nunnally explains that while she can't move her legs, she is still able to move within the water. She then shyly asks to Suzaku if he'd agree on swimming with her; Suzaku replied he'd love to, but he is kinda working;

Cornelia then appears on stage making an announcement to open Clovis' beach resort to the public. Lelouch instantly recognizes Cornelia with a sour face to Shirley's dismay who mentions it to Milly as it looks like Lelouch is going to attack her. Milly, quite unsure with her explanation, replies that it is normal for a male high school student to want to be physically close to someone as sexually attractive as Cornelia, before asking Suzaku for his thoughts on this, leading him to reluctantly agree. As Nunnally wonders if Cornelia really looks that great and wonders how she achieved such a figure, Milly guesses she must have trained herself with various men in different sort of ways, shocking even Shirley with the subtext. Nunnally then decides to ask Lelouch to train her to be as great as Cornelia. Lelouch also agrees that it would be important for Nunnally to learn and that he won't hold back with her, to which Nunnally says she'll do her best to satisfy him, leading Shirley to totally take it the wrong way.

For the next Season 1 picture drama it's right there
