Description:
Oboshi dines with Moronao's spy, Kudayu, at the Ichiriki brothel, to fool him with his bad behavior: seven figures dominate the interior scene. Two men & a woman are crouched at the foot of wooden stairs. On the landing are three men in matching kimonos, holding swords. A man in a grey kimono holding a red fan stands at the head of the stairs.
