WE NEED, UM,

CONTINENTAL FLAVOR.

[ Speaker At Party ]

HEY, WHITE BOY !

READY FOR THE NEXT LESSON ?

LOOK. IT'S VERY SIMPLE.

FOR MUCH OF THE WORLD,

A BOWL OF RICE MEANS MORE

THAN THE BILL OF RIGHTS.

AND IF YOU CAN'T FEED THEM,

DON'T PREACH DEMOCRACY

TO THEM.

YOU THINK THAT'S FUNNY ?

OH, NO, NO, IT'LL MAKE

GOOD COPY, BUT YOU'RE JUST

TALKING IN SLOGANS.

ARE WE GOING TO DISCUSS

THE WAY I SPEAK...

OR WHETHER MILLIONS

LIVE OR DIE ?

ALL RIGHT.

THE POINT IS WE'RE DOING

BOTH IN VIETNAM--

WE'RE FEEDING THE PEOPLE

AND WE'RE HELPING THEM ESTABLISH

A DEMOCRATIC GOVERNMENT.

NOW YOU SOUND LIKE THE

STATE DEPARTMENT TRYING

TO JUSTIFY A RACIST WAR.

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT ?

THIS WAR IS WAGED

AGAINST ASIANS, REMEMBER ?

YOU DON'T SEE US FIGHTING

IN POLAND OR CZECHOSLOVAKIA,

DO YOU ?

I WISH WE DID. AMERICA

IS THE ONLY COUNTRY THAT

CAN STAND UP TO THE RUSSIANS.

THAT'S WHY MY FOLKS

CAME HERE.

SO YOU'RE IMMIGRANTS.

WELL, SO ARE WE.

BUT WE DIDN'T SWALLOW

ALL THAT BULLSHIT...

ABOUT THE LAND OF OPPORTUNITY

WHEN WE GOT HERE.

EXCUSE ME, SIR.

COME ON IN.

I HAVE IT RIGHT HERE.

YOU KNOW, THAT PAPER

REALLY GRABBED MY ATTENTION

OFFERS A GENUINE ALTERNATIVE."

WHY, MY EYES JUST GALLOPED

THROUGH THE PAGES

IN EAGER ANTICIPATION...

OF THAT CRITICAL ANALYSIS...

WHICH IS THE FUNDAMENTAL TOOL

OF OUR DISCIPLINE.

I FOUND SLOGANS INSTEAD.

NO EVALUATION,

JUST SLOGANS.

OH, I'D ALREADY FLUNKED YOU

FOR FAILING TO ABSORB THE BASIC

PRINCIPLES OF THIS CLASS.

THEN...

I FOUND THESE

AT SATHER GATE.

PLAGIARY IS THE THEFT

I'D HAVE YOU INCARCERATED.

BUT I DON'T MAKE THE RULES.

THAT'S ALL.

SO YOU'RE GONNA

STICK WITH HIM ?

YEAH. I GOTTA

IT'S RUNNING LIKE CLOCKWORK.

I'M MAKING A LOT OF MONEY.

WELL, I'M GONNA

PUT MYSELF ON THE LINE.

[ Peter ] ATTA BOY !

[ Zsuzsa ]

OH, I'M SO GLAD !

THAT'S WONDERFUL.

[ Zoltan ]

WHAT HAPPENED ?

WELL, I STOOD THERE

IN THAT LINE,

AND I KNEW IF THEY TOOK ME

THAT I WOULDN'T COME BACK ALIVE,

SO I TOLD THEM I WAS GAY.

OH, THAT'S GREAT.

THAT'S GREAT.

[ Peter ]

WAY TO GO.

WHAT ?

WHAT HAPPENED ?

[ Peter ]

HE TOLD THEM THAT

HE WAS A HOMOSEXUAL.

MY SON TOLD AN AMERICAN OFFICER

HE WAS QUEER...

TO GET OUT OF THE DRAFT ?

[ Sandy ]

I JUST TOLD THEM THE TRUTH.

DON'T PLAY GAMES WITH ME.

[ Peter ]

HE'S NOT.

THEN GET OUT OF HERE.

AND DON'T YOU COME BACK.

[ Bottle Shatters ]

WHY DID YOU DO THAT ?

IT'S DISGUSTING.

I KNOW IT COMES AS A SHOCK,

BUT, POPS,

SANDY'S BEEN STRUGGLING

WITH THIS THING FOR MONTHS.

HE COULDN'T ADMIT IT

TO ANYBODY.

THERE IS NO ROOM HERE

FOR SUCH FILTH.

LOOK,

HE FINALLY GOT UP

THE COURAGE TO TELL YOU...

AND THE WHOLE WORLD.

JUST LISTEN TO HIM, OKAY ?

[ Breathes Deeply ]

ALL MY LIFE,

I'VE STRUGGLED...

TO LIVE DECENT LIFE.

THAT'S WHY WE'RE HERE.

THAT'S WHY I WORK

THE WAY I DO.

NOBODY'S GONNA

TAKE IT AWAY FROM ME.

NOT SANYI,

NOT YOU-- NOBODY.

YOU CAN'T

JUST THROW HIM OUT.

WE'RE YOUR FLESH AND BLOOD.

NOW, COME ON.

WHERE'S THAT

GREAT HUNGARIAN HEART, HUH ?

THIS IS NOT THE MAN

WHO WAS OUR FATHER.

[ Sniffles ]

GET OUT.

GET OUT.
