The Believer Page #2

..midday, with a small-calibre automatic|without a silencer.

Why no silencer?

Cos you want it to be an event.

Why don't you come visit us in the country?

We have a retreat.|You might find it interesting.

Bring your friends, if you like.

He reminds me of Karl, when l first met him.

l thought we agreed. Anti-Semitism is|exactly what we're trying to leave behind.

l mean, killing Manzetti(!)

Did you see how they reacted to him?

Of course, in this room, where people|aren't embarrassed to call themselves Nazis.

- lt's a romantic movement. lt always was.|- Lina,...

Look, l don't care about the Jews|one way or another. But it has a power.

The 1000-year Reich barely lasted a decade.|You really wanna go down that road again?

ln America, of all places? Order and|discipline aren't exactly the national virtues.

He's very bright.

He speaks well.

- So what do we do with him?|- ''Bring his friends''(!) We're not his friends.

Hey, Danny, you f*** the girl yet?

- l liked her mom.|- Her mom?!

(car horn blares)

(horn blares persistently)

- (long blast of horn)|- F*** you!

Get the f*** out of the way!

- F***in' n*gger!|- Why don't you f***in' go back to Rwanda?

Shut up, motherf***er!

- Come on!|- (shouting)

(cries of pain)

(hums)

(man cries and moans)

- Like it in here?|- (distant voice) Shut the f*** up.

D'you ever read Mein Kampf?.

Hitler had some of his best ideas in prison.

- Daniel Balint.|- (keys jangle)

- Hey, shut the hell up!|- (man cries and moans)

Not going anywhere without them.

Can l use a credit card?

Be quiet. l don't wanna wake up my mother.

(pronounces badly) ''Und die Worte zerfieIen|in meinem Mund wie modrige...

..PiIser.

- PiIser?|- PiIze.

''And the words fell apart in my mouth|like mouldering mushrooms.''

(sighs)

A lot of these are in Spanish.

Yeah. My grandma's from Argentina.

My father's family went over during the war.

Where's your father now?

He's in a mental institution.

Was he a Nazi?

l don't know. We don't talk about that.

l don't think he cares about all that stuff|any more.

What's he care about?

Killing himself.

D'you think people ever commit suicide|out of happiness?

lt's stupid. Why would they do it|if they were happy?

You're not like the others, are you?

Like your friends.

Yes, l am.

Basically, l am.

Hurt me.

Just do it. Hurt me.

Ow! Not that hard!

Get up.

You have to go.

- What?|- (slaps)

(Lina) Curtis.

Bring the paper.

(door slams)

= Questa vita, non ha senso

= ImpossibiIe

Punk-ass!

= Questa vi... Questa vi...

= Questa vi... =

(woman's voice) Where d'you have it|last, Dad? Try to remember.
