Adopting Terror Page #5

---

Did you do conversation

with the Germans?

When no more money.

But Germans, they have

more pretty costumes

and more pretty music.

More pretty music and costumes'

maybe'

but we still kicked their asses.

Skip it...

Cucumber, "cachcaval"...

Enough is enough.

Let's get some real grub.

Hey, Norbert!

I'm learning Romanian!

So I see.

It's amazing!

Come back. It's not worth it!

Despite what you may think'

we're still at war.

With whom?

What the hell does it matter?

The ones we have to shoot:

Hungarians, Trotsky's Bolsheviks...

For now, we're in an Allied country.

So, no misconduct, no brawling'

no drunkenness, no looting.

And the Armistice?

What about it?

Armistice isn't peace.

What's keeping you?

Berthelot's worked up! We can't let

the Brits open the ball alone!

Wait up!

Careful of the ladies.

Gallantry'

the French spirit - right!

But no familiarities.

Avoid those dark ones.

You fell for one, Fidli.

Like a ton of bricks, sir.

How I understand youth!

I myself once...

Beware the dark ones!

The women...

here.

Men, on right.

My report can break you, Sergeant!

Go on and report me!

Lt. Conan will fix it up.

But I'll fix you, buddy!

So the general says: Yes or no'

why are you on the stairs?

So I answer:
Oh, no, sir!

If our hours don't suit you'

dear colleague'

please let us know.

It'll be an honor

to conform to yours.

Town detail, sir!

Meals are also part of duty.

At the exact hour.

Yes, sir.

Three days, suspension!

Fidli will replace for you.

I need you elsewhere.

We need an advocate

for the next court martial sessions.

Someone who honors the battalion.

I appointed you.

I don't understand, sir.

I never studied law.

Your education will compensate.

In literature?

Look here!

Not that I belittle defense'

but I don't see the point.

Excuse me?

Either the guilt is patent

and you get so much...

or the guilt's unproven and you

get so much even so. On principle.

I don't understand, sir!

How can we accept that?

You sound like a chorus

of outraged virgins!

A little vocabulary, gentlemen...

What are imprisoned soldiers

called before trial?

- The accused.

- Exactly!

Thus, suspicion of guilt exists.

Suspicion is not conviction.

Poppycock!

In my experience'

the accused is never a good soldier.

He's just asking for it.

If not this time'

he was guilty a dozen other times.

- Not my idea of justice.

- No, wait.

I'll bet 1000 francs

against a trouser button

that not one of you - not one! -

can say he never came close

to being court-martialed.

Say you take 3 days'

extra leave... Desertion!

Or a bogus pass...

The unit seal traced on a copy.

Forged documents!
