+. Good one.
My imperfect kabuki memory tells me that this is a scene from 助六 Sukeroku, about which more here.
Whitebeard-san is an old samurai named Ikyu, who possesses a famous sword stolen from Sukeroku's father when the child was just a baby. To out Ikyu, Sukeroku shows up right after this picture, and taunts him to the point that Ikyu pulls out his sword to attack, thereby showing that it is indeed the stolen sword. (In the picture, the lady on his left is Agemaki his courtesan, which makes it a sworded affair, but I digress.)
In a sense, this is an 18th century Japanese version of Trump mean-tweeting the Deep State into outing itself, as he has done; Elon Musk is just the next step in that process.
