Part 243: the Dragon and Tiger Once More
Kenshin (thinking): Enishi...
(Heishin's unconscious body crashes into the sand.)
Enishi: Suffer there for a while. I'll feed you to the sharks later!
(He steps towards the group; all eyes turn towards him.)
Misao: So that's Yukishiro Enishi. He's better looking than I thought.
Megumi: Hey.

Kaoru: Guys! (catching sight of Kenshin) Ken--
