At 00:10:04,267, Character said: This isn't my war!

74
At 00:10:05,533, Character said: - You are part Chinese!
- Ah!

75
At 00:10:08,000, Character said: I'm a little of everything
and a lot of nothing.

76
At 00:10:11,700, Character said: The Chinese say I'm this, the French
say I'm that, the Americans say I'm...

77
At 00:10:16,133, Character said: As far
as I'm concerned

78
At 00:10:19,067, Character said: you and the hammer and sickle boys can
go fight it out among yourselves.

79

there should be

80

through the whole area.

At 00:10:28,033, Character said: In the confusion,
we steal a plane.

you back here to Son Toy.

At 00:10:31,833, Character said: We will give you $5,000.

84
At 00:10:34,400, Character said: We'll open a new bar for
you in Saigon

85
At 00:10:37,400, Character said: and stock it with the finest
wines and liquor.

86
At 00:10:41,467, Character said: It's a deal?

87
At 00:10:48,933, Character said: No.

88
At 00:10:51,367, Character said: All right, then. Name your own price.
How much do you want?

89
At 00:10:57,700, Character said: I want to get
my son to America.

90
At 00:11:03,433, Character said: He has no criminal record,
no disease.

91
At 00:11:06,467, Character said: He's five years old and his eyes
are a cross he's g***t to carry.

92
At 00:11:11,533, Character said: But in America, I think that
cross would be lighter.

93
At 00:11:15,567, Character said: You know the right people.

94
At 00:11:18,867, Character said: You use your influence for my son
and I'll find that dump for you.

95
At 00:11:23,267, Character said: No. The laws are
strict in America.

96
At 00:11:27,900, Character said: All right.

97
At 00:11:30,600, Character said: Lucky! Wait a moment.

98
At 00:11:34,567, Character said: In this particular case,

99
At 00:11:37,867, Character said: I think we can
work it out.

100
At 00:11:41,567, Character said: - When do we start?
- Right away!

101
At 00:11:44,700, Character said: I have a pleasant
surprise for you.

102
At 00:11:46,500, Character said: What? A bottle?

103
At 00:11:49,700, Character said: Send him in.

104
At 00:11:51,200, Character said: You remember the American
dynamiter, Sergeant Brock?

105
At 00:11:54,867, Character said: He is with the
Foreign Legion now.

106
At 00:11:56,933, Character said: He will be in charge
of explosives.

107
At 00:11:59,333, Character said: The deal's off!
Find the dump yourself!

108
At 00:12:03,633, Character said: But I don't understand.

109
At 00:12:06,867, Character said: I thought it would be a wonderful
reunion for both of you on this job.

110
At 00:12:11,867, Character said: It would make
everything more pleasant.

111
At 00:12:15,267, Character said: I knew you lived together in
Saigon, but what happened?

112
At 00:12:20,133, Character said: We just didn't live
together, Colonel.

113
At 00:12:22,600, Character said: We were married,
in church.

114
At 00:12:25,667, Character said: Oh, you could have bought
her for $30 for two years

115
At 00:12:28,900, Character said: as a government-registered
wife.

116
At 00:12:31,233, Character said: That's right.

117
At 00:12:33,000, Character said: Well, then, did she find
you with another woman?

118
At 00:12:36,867, Character said: Is that why
she slapped you?

119
At 00:12:38,533, Character said: No. I walked.

120
At 00:12:41,567, Character said: Oh, that happens every day
in this part of the world.

121
At 00:12:44,867, Character said: Oh, yes, it could
have been worse.

122
At 00:12:47,100, Character said: It is. No.

123
At 00:12:48,533, Character said: What do you mean?

124
At 00:12:50,967, Character said: She...
