Concubine Secrets: Lustful Dance, Zoku irogoyomi oku hiwa: in no mai (1972) dir. Isao Hayashi
The twelfth shogun, Ieyoshi, embraces Oruri day and night under the care of Fujioka, a guest attendant at the Ooku. However, Fujiokas senior, Kumoi, who recommends Oseki to him, is not amused at all. The scene between Fujioka and Kumoi was symbolic of the battle between women in the Ooku. Fujioka hears from Orui that she is pregnant and rejoices that she has nothing to fear if she bears the Shoguns child. Meanwhile, Kumoi comforts Bure, who is a lesbian, and asks Oseki to help her get a call from the shogun.
