YOU SHOULD BE PROUD OF YOURSELF.
LET ME ASK YOU A QUESTION.
I MEAN, WHILE YOU'RE DOWN THERE,
AND I'VE GOT YOUR FULL AND
UNDIVIDED ATTENTION.
[ CHUCKLES ]
WHY'D YOU COME TO THIS ISLAND ON
THIS MISSION?
YOU THOUGHT IT WAS A NOBLE THING
TO DO?
EXTEND A HUMANITARIAN EFFORT...
HAND OF PEACE TO THESE PEOPLE?
[ LAUGHS ]
SHIT, BOY, THESE WOMEN ARE
SAVAGES.
YOU CAN'T CIVILIZE A SAVAGE.
SAVAGE AIN'T NEVER GONNA BE
NOTHING BUT A SAVAGE.
NOW ME?
I CAME HERE FOR THE WOMEN.
THAT'S RIGHT. YOU HEARD ME.
YOU PROBABLY WATCHED FROM AFAR
WHILE I HAD MY WAY WITH THAT
YOUNG LADY OVER THERE.
[ CHUCKLES ]
YOU PROBABLY THOUGHT SHE WASN'T
TOO KEEN ON MY, UH, CHARMS.
THEREIN LIES THE PROBLEM.
YOU SEE, I'M A GOD HERE.
IN THIS JUNGLE, I AM A GOD, AND
I WILL TAKE AND DO AS I PLEASE.
ANYONE WHO STANDS IN MY WAY?
WELL, THEY JUST BECOME A VICTIM
OF A TRAGEDY...
WHICH BRINGS US TO THIS CURRENT
SITUATION.
IT'S A SHAME, THOUGH.
I WOULD HAVE LOVED ANOTHER GO AT
HER.
[ CHUCKLES ]
SHE'S THE HOLY MOTHER.
SHE'S THE ONE THEY ALL WORSHIP.
SHE DIDN'T LAST FIVE MINUTES
WITH ME.
THEY JUST DON'T MAKE THEM LIKE
THEY USED TO.
IT'S OKAY, THOUGH.
SHE AND HER BABY WILL BE WITH
THE LORD SOON.
OH, YEAH.
I WISH MY BOY LIAM COULD SEE ME
RIGHT NOW.
HE'D BE SO PROUD.
[ CHUCKLES ]
NOW, THERE'S A HANDFUL.
THAT LITTLE SUMBITCH?
HE'S GONNA GROW UP TO BE JUST
LIKE HIS DADDY.

BE A MAN SOMEDAY.
OF COURSE, HE'S GOT SOME PRETTY
BIG BRITCHES TO FILL...
SO TO SPEAK.

AHEAD OF HIM.
