Date de diffusion: Mai 20, 2012

In 1156, the former Emperor Sutoku and Yorinaga similarly oppressed, join together. Shinzei puts the two under suspicion of treason and commands the samurais to side to Emperor Go-Shirakawa. While Tameyoshi and Yoshitomo are divided over their decisions, Kiyomori, who had a talk with Emperor Go-Shirakawa alone, tells the members of the Taira family his intention of taking side with Emperor Go-Shirakawa. However, Yorimori, Kiyomori's half brother, hesitates to follow Kiyomori's decision.
