The Devil's Brigade Page #4

Thank you, sir.

...and calculating.

How did Capt. Quill fancy your

playing around with his girlfriend?

The girl he thought was his girlfriend, sir.

I thought otherwise.

He won the argument.

- So he beat you up.

- Not all by himself...

Don't lie to me!

I have all the facts.

You're charged with striking an officer.

Capt. Quill asked you to stay away

from his girl, you attacked him...

...and his men had to use clubs

to subdue you.

I'm not crazy enough to strike an officer.

Sir, if you send me back, Quill could

keep me in prison for the rest of my life.

Yes, I know.

Don't calculate

that you can con your way in here.

- You read me correctly?

- Yes, sir.

I'm sorry to have bothered you, sir.

Thank you, sir.

Ransom, did I give you

permission to leave?

No, sir.

What's this?

When you beat somebody up,

that's a good way to play safe, isn't it?

Tie his hands behind his back.

Bricker!

- Yes, sir?

- Get this man a uniform.

You've got to be kidding!

The uniforms have been ordered, sir.

But nobody knows...

Get him something decent to wear.

He smells.

Yes, sir.

That's all.

Sir.

I promise you, you won't be sorry.

If I am, I promise you,

you'll be a lot more sorry.

Yes, sir.

Those bastards!

- Something on your mind, Major?

- Yes, sir, there sure is.

We're making a big mistake going soft

on the kind of gorillas we got here.

- Did you say "gorillas"?

- Not the Canucks, the Americans.

"Canucks," Major,

is a term we consider disparaging.

Do you have a specific complaint, Major?

Yes, sir, I sure as hell do.

One of those stupid jerks out there

broke into my room...

...and stole my rattlesnake.

- Your what?

- Rattlesnake.

Maybe they don't allow them in Canada.

We destroy them,

we don't sleep with them.

Nobody likes

a promiscuous rattlesnake, Captain.

I can assure you, none of my men

would steal a rattlesnake...

...or anything else.

My men are under strict orders.

Anyone discrediting the Canadian uniform

is subject to immediate court-martial.

Among other restrictions,

they're specifically forbidden to fight.

I suggest, sir, you consider a similar order.

- Do you have a complaint, Major?

- I don't mean to belittle the Americans.

What do you mean?

There have been numerous attempts

by your men to provoke my men.

And unless they're ordered to stop,

there could be serious trouble.

- You really think so?

- I know so, sir.

- We'll have to watch that, won't we?

- Yes, sir.

How did a friendly little fellow like you

get the name of "Ornery"?

Henri. It's French for Henry.

You got yourself

a nice little piece here, Ornery.

They say them French girls

know all kinds of tricks.

Give me that, you espece de salaud!
