LELOUCH (flashback)
The Guren Mk II...
...will be yours, Kallen.
You're our ace pilot.

LELOUCH
Your heart is your own, Kallen.
Your loyalty to and admiration for Zero — all of it.
KALLEN
Lelouch!
What am I to you?

KALLEN
Why did you tell me I had to live on the Ikaruga?

SFX
<boom, clang>
<crackling electricity—>
KALLEN
Those with no reason to fight should just butt out!

C.C.
Oh, but I do have a reason.
Something I was promised.
KALLEN
Promised...?

KALLEN
I'll be the one to stop you!
Farewell, Lelouch...!

KALLEN
!
KALLEN
?!

KALLEN
You again!3
LELOUCH
C.C.!
C.C.
Oh, I like that...
Knowing you care.
C.C.
Now get going — but be sure to come back.
You're supposed to make me smile, remember?

KALLEN
Tch—...
LELOUCH
Right.
It's a promise!
KALLEN
Don't tell me you've actually been having an affair?!4

KALLEN
Is that really it? Just because you have feelings for him?!
<freezes>
<zap>
<roar>
C.C.
!
<bam, bam, bam>
C.C.
Who knows?

C.C.
But...
I used to think I was ready to stop 'accumulating experiences'.5
LELOUCH (flashback)
Don't die looking like that!
When the end comes, you should be smiling!
LELOUCH (flashback)
I'll make sure you're smiling!
So...!

KALLEN
That's almost human, for you!
1 Lit. 'to inherit my big brother's will'. This is a phrase Ougi also used back in the first series, when he told Kallen that he thought Zero was someone who could do that. ↩
2 Kallen's line is literally accusing C.C. of not even having a fragment of aspiration. ↩
3 Lit. 'persistent', tenacious, obstinate. Kallen is commenting that C.C. keeps getting in her way, hence my translation. ↩
4 乳繰り合う = to have a secret affair, to meet secretly and flirt with each other. Undoubtedly referring to the common perception of C.C. as Lelouch's mistress by characters like Tamaki, which perhaps Kallen didn't put much stock in before this moment. ↩
5 Refers to a conversation Lelouch and C.C. had earlier in the TV show, where they agreed that life should be more than just an accumulation of experiences. ↩

And yeah, we only get some flashbacks here... I think because the focus is more on Kallen and her perspective, so we don't get to see the entirety of the scene that was C.C. and Lelouch alone.
