About This Chapter
This chapter's epigraph comes from the opening lines of Act IV, Scene 1 of the play. It's a quote from the play's opening lines: "You have already got lead / Nori ! Fight smart ! . . fight takashi !" . Nori says that's exactly what he's doing. He's already got the upper hand, and now he needs to pull himself up and cut him off. He gets up, but the back of his opponent's back is still taken, and he can't get out of the choke. Aww, what a waste of a chance. The fight is over.
