Dark Feathers: Dance of the Geisha

What do you want, Jerry?

Oh my god, Kate.

I need to see you.

I need to be with you again.

Go home to your wife.

She left, Kate.

She found out about us.

You work for her father, right?

Well, I'm sorry.

There's nothing I can do.

- I just need to be with you, baby, just one more time.

No.

Come on, Kate.

I know you enjoyed it.

Come on, I'll do anything.

Anything?

Anything.

Really?

Yeah.

Then go away.

If you don't say yes, I'll jump.

Do what you want.

You'll be sorry.

You'll be sorry!

On the house.

Oh, thank you, Dimitri.

Appreciate it.

You'll love this one.

This guy jumps off a roof.

The financial type, just lost his job, deep in debt.

Big surprise, huh?

What's weird?

- Well, he jumps off this apartment building.

It's not his building, not even in his neighborhood.

Girlfriend?

Could be.

We have surveillance images from the roof.

Name was Jerry Adams.

We also have images of the woman right there.

Oh, not bad at all.

Her back is straight, her head is high.

Wow, she looks like a ballroom dancer to me.

I think I may have seen her before.

- I thought you might, at your wife's dance studio.

I was hoping you might be able to find out for sure.

I mean, I can.

She doesn't look really happy in this picture.

Was she there when he jumped out of the roof?

No, she was gone when we showed up.

Okay.

- But witnesses say a woman matching her description

was outside when Jerry hit the ground.

Interesting.

What are you gonna do?

Nothing, case closed.

I was hoping you can help us wrap it up

if you can find anything out about this woman.

I also thought it might appeal to you

as a fellow detective.

- I'm not a detective anymore, but thanks, James.

I used to love those cases when I was a cop.

Alright, I'll let you know what I can find out.

Thank you.

Amelia!

You are doing amazing, Kate.

I can barely lead you.

You are doing fine.

I think you can do better, Kevin.

- Maggie, do you wanna practice?

Yes.

Hey Maggie, do you know who that is?

- Her? - Mm-hm.

That's Kate.

The partner doesn't seem up to speed.

- Oh, Kevin, he's just some random student.

Kate doesn't have a partner.

I have a hard time believing

that she cannot find a partner.

Well, she's bad luck to men.

Really?

Her last partner killed himself.

I can believe she's already back in the class, actually.

And he's not the only one.

Oh!

Oh, I'm so sorry.

Why don't you watch where you're going?

I am so sorry.

Oh, Remy, it's you.

I'm sorry.

You need to learn how to dance.

That is why I'm here.

Amelia.

Mm-hm.

What's the deal with your student Kate?

Deal?

Why, you have a crush on her?

Get in line.

- You know her partner committed suicide, right?

Jerry?

That's horrible.

Did Kate say anything?

No.

No, why would she?

All her partners are dead.

Are you sure?

I can't believe it.

Deadly sure.

Hmm.

So my best student is a serial killer.

No, she didn't kill anyone,

but all her partners are dead.

Okay, okay.

Out with it, tell me.

Out with it, huh?

Mm-hm.

- I am requesting permission to dance with Kate.

You wanna die?

Because I can kill you right now.

- Well, if this is the way I go, that'd be it.

Okay, dead man.

Just don't let me see any closeups.

One, there we go.

Continue to make bigger movement, and slower.

Very good.

You guys look greet.

Yeah, make sure you use those.

Good job, you guys look great.

Kate, your body moves are excellent.

Soften your knees

and stretch up.

You stretch your neck all the way up.

Keep your eyes open.

Thank you.

Thank you.

You dance well.

Thank you.

- Will your partner be joining us for the rest of the task?

My partner won't be here today.

What happened?

I mean, if you don't mind me asking.

I heard he was hit by a bus.

Oh, I'm sorry to hear that.

It's a shame, though,

for a dancer like you not to have a partner.

You want to be my partner?

Well, I happen to have no partner.

You seem to know Amelia.

Quite well.

She taught me a lot, but I'm not good enough to lead her.

You are married.

That's right.

To Amelia.

Right again.

- My dance partners tends to have bad luck.

Have you heard about that?

- Yeah, but I think I'm a pretty lucky guy.

Shall we see if it's a match?

Shall we?

It is a blessing to study under you.

- Do you think you can take that test again?

I'm ready.

- Princess Edo, I'm honored to see you again.

It's black's move.

Well done.

Yamamoto has told me of your progress.

Your highness, I'd like to see her.

Not today.

You see her when the time comes.

- Master Kensei is expecting Kate now.

My deepest respects, Master Kensei.

Masako is not only your daughter,

but the future of the Edo heritage.

I understand.

- What happened to Masako's father was not your fault.

Have you forgiven yourself?

I have.

The past cannot be changed

and the future cannot be predicted.

Only the present is tangible.

That is correct.

You can go now and don't worry about Masako.

Princess Masako prepare this for you.

Lady Ichi, Masako has been

in isolated meditation for weeks.

How did she know Kate was coming today?

- She prepared before entering the meditation.

And how is her meditation going?

Her skill level?

Masako is a genius.

Even her father could not measure her at this age.

Hmm.

I hope so.

Take care, Mr. Yamamoto.

Hi, Kate.

Hi, Kevin.

How are you? - Good.

You getting ready for practice?

That's right.

- I know I'm not up to your level or speed,

but I was wondering
