(General Duval) Now, Captain Luke

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Your splendid service as an interpreter[br]is appreciated

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
but when you try to tell me stories of

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
mesmerism, occultism, men without souls

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
or of supermen, capable of annihilating [br]armies of trained men

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
you make me wonder if you are sane.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
General...

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I dare say

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I failed in my presentation of the facts-

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
No, not facts.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
The ravings of a mad Cambodian priest.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
No, Luke. Too fantastic.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Read that back.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
? [Unclear]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I wish I could believe in your "robots".

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I could use several regiments of [br]them right now.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
That's all.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
You don't have to tell me to play along

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I can read your emotions in your face[br]as easily as ? [unclear]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Try and find a language in which [br]to convince General Duval

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
No, the chances are, you apologized,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
stammered, [br]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
he barked, you retreated [br]without firing a shot.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I wish I had your assurance.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
That faculty of knowing your objective [br]and driving straight at it. [?]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
It's simple.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Just impress the other person ? [unclear]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Something called ? [unclear]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Oh yes. I like the American [br]phrase better -

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
"intestinal fortitude".

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Don't rub it in.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Well, someone should!

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
You know, I admire your knowledge, [br]and you envy my ego.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I'll take half your knowledge,[br]and you take half my ego,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and we'll have two smart men!

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
How much of this high priest [br]story do you believe?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Oh I think there is something [br]to black magic, [?]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
call it superstition if [br]you want, I don't know,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
but I don't believe that you can turn[br]human beings into automatons,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
or as you call them, "zombies".[br]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
You believe in mental telepathy?[br]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
There might be something to it.[br]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
The science does! It's an [br]established fact, Cliff,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
that in the Orient, the last of [br]an ancient race

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
labour for the laws of telepathy [?]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
so their knowledge, their rituals, [br]they're guarded

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
by just such priests as this man here.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
All right, I'll buy your ? [unclear]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
but I'll not buy you a robot [?]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Now look, Cliff,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Tsiang here comes from the Han court

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
where according to their legends,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Angkor was built for these robots

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
thousands of tireless, feelingless human [br]machine [?]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
-yes, yes, I know, and they [br]call them "zombies"-

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
-controlled and directed mentally [br]by their Priest-King-

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
-yet Tsiang here is the last descendant [br]of that Priest-King,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and the only man alive who knows[br]the secret of the zombies.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Tsiang, ? [unclear - Spoken in khmer?]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
? [unclear - Spoken in khmer?]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I don't believe a word of it![br]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
He says that- he says that

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
the General keeps his ear to the ground

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
like- like- like- the ears of a corpse,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
but he will not listen to[br]the words of wisdom.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
What do you wanna do, get the General a [br]?[unclear] phone?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
? [unclear - Spoken in khmer?][br]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
? [unclear - Spoken in khmer?][br]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Tsiang still insists that God says [br]he must create zombie soldiers. [?]

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
He says he'll show us how a [br]handful of zombies

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
can take an entire enemy trench.
