- You don't have one.
- I don't want one.
374
00:30:40,423 --> 00:30:42,967
Well, you need one. What if
someone wants to talk to you?
375
00:30:43,134 --> 00:30:45,011
Why the hell would I want to talk to anyone?
376

377

You did alright last night.

You want to know the secret of my success?
402
00:31:48,032 --> 00:31:49,826
The secret is charm.
403

00:44:01,724 --> 00:44:04,852
- Never again.
- They'll all be there.
540
00:44:05,019 --> 00:44:09,189
- Everyone except you.
- (LAUGHS)
541
00:44:09,356 --> 00:44:12,234
Each of them thinking they know what strong is.
542
00:44:12,401 --> 00:44:15,446
And if you're not there to show them otherwise...
543
00:44:15,612 --> 00:44:18,365
They respect you.
544
00:44:18,532 --> 00:44:21,577
- They know you.
- No, no, they don't know me.
545
00:44:21,744 --> 00:44:24,121
YOU know me.
546
00:44:24,288 --> 00:44:26,790
You know what these hands have done.
547
00:44:26,957 --> 00:44:29,376
You don't want me, you want my brother
548
00:44:29,543 --> 00:44:31,462
and he's not here.
549
00:44:31,628 --> 00:44:33,130
Then we'll die.
550
00:44:34,256 --> 00:44:37,259
It will be glorious, win or lose.
551
00:44:37,426 --> 00:44:39,970
I'm tired of glorious.
552
00:44:40,137 --> 00:44:41,722
WOMAN: Is something wrong?
553
00:44:41,889 --> 00:44:45,267
Nothing at all, my sister.
Go back to sleep.
554
00:44:45,434 --> 00:44:47,478
WEDNESDAY: I'm not successful.
555
00:44:49,730 --> 00:44:53,233
- We should go.
- You said you needed him.
556
00:44:53,400 --> 00:44:54,943
- There's always another way.
- No, no.
557
00:44:55,110 --> 00:44:56,779
No, no. Food is cooked.
558
00:44:56,945 --> 00:45:01,033
Zorya Vechernyaya invited you for dinner, right?
559
00:45:02,076 --> 00:45:04,370
So you stay and you eat.
560
00:45:04,536 --> 00:45:07,289
Otherwise, she will be insulted.
561
00:45:07,456 --> 00:45:09,416
You understand?
562
00:45:09,583 --> 00:45:11,293
And if you want to leave after,
563
00:45:11,460 --> 00:45:13,712
I will hold open the door.
564
00:45:14,838 --> 00:45:16,548
(THUNDER RUMBLES)
565
00:45:24,807 --> 00:45:27,017
WEDNESDAY: Mm! Mm...
566
00:45:28,268 --> 00:45:29,353
Mm.
567
00:45:30,479 --> 00:45:32,022
Mm.
568
00:45:33,732 --> 00:45:37,069
Mm. Mm! Delicious.
569
00:45:37,236 --> 00:45:40,948
To think I nearly missed this fabulous meal, hm?
570
00:45:41,115 --> 00:45:43,659
Thank you, ladies. Shadow.
571
00:45:43,826 --> 00:45:45,661
My old friend, hm?
572
00:45:47,538 --> 00:45:48,705
Ah!
573
00:45:48,872 --> 00:45:50,541
You're black.
574
00:45:50,707 --> 00:45:52,584
Right?
575
00:45:54,711 --> 00:45:56,255
That a problem?
576
00:45:56,422 --> 00:46:01,176
Ehh, we never much care about skin
like the Americans.
577
00:46:01,343 --> 00:46:04,304
Where we're from, everyone has the same colour,
578
00:46:04,471 --> 00:46:08,725
so we must fight over shades.
579
00:46:08,892 --> 00:46:10,394
Hm.
580
00:46:11,437 --> 00:46:14,940
You see, my brother had light hair and beard.
581
00:46:15,107 --> 00:46:16,567
Me dark, like you.
582
00:46:16,733 --> 00:46:19,445
I was like the black man over there.
583
00:46:20,487 --> 00:46:23,449
As against my brother, the white.
584
00:46:23,615 --> 00:46:24,992
(CZERNOBOG LAUGHS)
585
00:46:25,159 --> 00:46:28,620
Everybody thought he must be the good one.
586
00:46:28,787 --> 00:46:30,456
Yeah.
587
00:46:30,622 --> 00:46:33,459
So I became me.
588
00:46:33,625 --> 00:46:37,880
But time passes. Now I'm grey.
589
00:46:38,046 --> 00:46:42,092
Yeah, he too, I...
I believe now is grey.
590
00:46:42,259 --> 00:46:43,760
So you wouldn't be able to tell
591
00:46:43,927 --> 00:46:47,431
who is light, who is dark.
592
00:46:47,598 --> 00:46:51,310
So much for fighting over colour.
593
00:46:53,103 --> 00:46:57,232
Yeah, you see, when we came to America,
594
00:46:57,399 --> 00:46:59,234
we first came to New York.
595
00:46:59,401 --> 00:47:01,695
Everyone first come to New York.
596
00:47:01,862 --> 00:47:04,364
New York was...
Yeah, it was alright.
597
00:47:04,531 --> 00:47:05,949
Sometimes even good, right? Eh?
598
00:47:06,116 --> 00:47:09,244
And then we came here, Chicago,
everything became bad.
599
00:47:09,411 --> 00:47:11,246
(LAUGHS)
600
00:47:11,413 --> 00:47:13,916
I think in old country, you know, I am forgotten.
601
00:47:14,082 --> 00:47:16,710
Here, I'm like a bad memory.
602
00:47:16,877 --> 00:47:20,672
So I had to find work
603
00:47:20,839 --> 00:47:24,760
and I found meat business.
604
00:47:24,927 --> 00:47:27,513
- You know it?
- I know the eating part.
605
00:47:27,679 --> 00:47:29,556
CZERNOBOG: I know the killing.
606
00:47:33,018 --> 00:47:34,311
(LAUGHS)
607
00:47:34,478 --> 00:47:38,106
So I got job on killing floor as a knocker.
608
00:47:38,273 --> 00:47:40,025
It was a good job.
609
00:47:40,192 --> 00:47:42,277
Yeah, skilled labour.
610
00:47:42,444 --> 00:47:46,281
A cow comes up the ramp.
Boom, boom, boom.
611
00:47:46,448 --> 00:47:48,158
And you take a sledgehammer and boop!
612
00:47:48,325 --> 00:47:52,871
You knock the cow dead.
It takes strength.
613
00:47:53,038 --> 00:47:55,415
No cow-killing stories
during dinner.
614
00:47:55,582 --> 00:47:59,294
How do you think
meat get on your plate? Huh?
615
00:47:59,461 --> 00:48:00,963
(LAUGHS)
616
00:48:01,129 --> 00:48:02,881
It takes strength,
617
00:48:03,048 --> 00:48:05,342
but not only strength.
618
00:48:05,509 --> 00:48:07,386
It takes talent, because it's a craft.
619
00:48:07,553 --> 00:48:09,054
You have to do it right
620
00:48:09,221 --> 00:48:11,181
or the cow gets angry.
621
00:48:11,348 --> 00:48:13,433
And angry meat taste bad.
622
00:48:14,643 --> 00:48:17,604
Yeah, you need arms to break the skull,
623
00:48:17,771 --> 00:48:19,398
but that's not the goal.
624
00:48:19,565 --> 00:48:22,609
The goal is to crush the brain inside the skull
625
00:48:22,776 --> 00:48:25,779
and quick, before the pain can travel
626
00:48:25,946 --> 00:48:27,948
from outside the brain to the inside,
627
00:48:28,115 --> 00:48:30,659
so the brain never knows the brain is crushing.
628
00:48:30,826 --> 00:48:34,621
To give a good death is art.
629
00:48:34,788 --> 00:48:37,124
But nowadays, they have this bolt gun.
630
00:48:37,291 --> 00:48:39,293
You know?
Put it on the forehead.

(IMITATES GUN FIRING)
632
00:48:40,877 --> 00:48:43,297
Yeah.
633
00:48:43,463 --> 00:48:46,133
Now every monkey with a thumb can kill.
634
00:48:46,300 --> 00:48:48,927

- Every man's an equal.
- Eh, exactly.
648
00:49:25,005 --> 00:49:26,840
After you finish eating,
649
00:49:27,007 --> 00:49:29,009
maybe you and I play checkers.

- Is good.
- CZERNOBOG: Yeah.

I like it. Confident.

they used to, huh?

...the secret to keeping it clean
is use.

no half-measures.
