Death in the Garden Page #3

without me?

Don't I count at all?

Get the hell outta here!

How?

By the back alley

They'll see me! It's impossible!

If they find ya here, I'm done for!

What a way to behave!

And Castin?

He's not here

Don't lie to us!

He's not here!

Why didn't ya open?

I was busy

Busy? ... Let's have a look!

Ferrero's in jail and they're

checking on his friends

We gotta scram!

Be on my boat tonight and

we'll go together

No sign of him!

And in there?

That's my room

Outta the way!

Father Lizardi! I never thought

he'd do that!

I never thought a priest'd

go so far as to ...

He's givin' Djin confession!

Brethren, don't judge me

by appearances!

Brother?

In my family, we're honest and frank

Wait'll this gets around!

Happy? Seen all ya wanted to?

We've seen plenty!

Then get the hell out!

We're goin'!

Sorry we interrupted, Padre!

Father, I heard it all! ...

It's terrible!

Don't talk about it.

I need to meditate

Hard to be judged when

ya ain't guilty!

I was really in a sweat!

And what about him?

The bastards!

And ya wanted me to go out

and be torn to shreds!

I don't know what got into me!

But put yourself in my shoes

If they'd found ya,

I'd have been ruined!

I lost my head. But I hid

you all the same!

I'm only a woman ... and all alone!

But ... no longer!

Now we're together!

Let's not discuss it any more

Besides, I got ya into this mess

I hafta get ya out of town

Sure ... But how?

Chenco's boat!

Well?

He sails tonight

He's goin' to Rio Mambuti

On the other side is Brazil!

So what?

I'll put you on Chenco's boat!

But ... you know Chenco!

He'd turn me in for the 5000 pesos!

No ... I'm done for

But you're not!

I'm goin' with ya!

Djin, you saved me!

You're like my own wife now

I wanna prove it to you

Here! These diamonds are all

our fortune!

You carry it

I'll go get my daughter

Try to take her aboard with you

I'll hide till dark and then

try to get aboard

It's my only chance!

But if I don't make it, promise me ...

you'll be a mother to her

OK?

OK:

Castin! We're casting off!

Once we're gone ...

I'll buy off Chenco

Maria?

She's here

You undid your bandage!

Get moving! Go on!

Not a sound!

Where's your boss?

Answer me!

Where is he?

Calm down! Drop your knife!

Take his gun!

He's dangerous, Chenco!

Knock him out!

Get out!

Go get the soldiers!

Sorry, Father, but money's money!

I want that reward

Put the motor in gear!

I'll take the wheel!

Don't leave us like that!

We're gonna have a nice

trip together!

Stay there and don't move!

So we meet again!

Full speed!

Get down, ya idiot!

Here's my share. Chenco

got a share too

Nothing, Lieutenant!

They have a ten-hour lead

We must stop them before

they reach Brazil

Our boat's three times faster

than Chenco's

We'll catch them before dark

Cast off!

If we go aground or anything

happens, you're dead!

In the bag!

There's guns too!

Castin, take that!

Grab some ammo!

The rest overboard!

All of it?

We can't let Chenco use it!

Where are you taking me?

Wherever you want!

You must put me ashore ...

so I can reach the native mission

at Santa Rosalia

Leave them alone!

They'll be better off!

No one'll force'em to work!

Thanks to the missions ...

many tribes have now heard

the Word of God

From their foremen's mouths!

That's not our fault

But they follow you everywhere!

They really love you!

I won't argue with you

Put me ashore at once!

I'm in command here

Get that in your head and we'll be OK

I serve only one master. You don't scare me!

We'll see

Castin, you're wrong to aid ...

such scum!

What else can I do?

I was innocent and they set

a price on my head!

Don't you hear anything?

Sounds like a motor!

Any other boats around?

The Turica Bamba army launch

Then we must land fast!

Grab all the supplies you can!

That's enough! ... Let's go!

The boat's drifting away!

My suitcase is on it!

Ya won't need it in the jungle

The boat'll sink! It's not

yours to dispose of!

It's how I make my living!

You won't be living long!

Walk in front!

Kill him?

What's it to you?

Don't kill me!

Take all my money!

And leave ya here to betray us!

I know the jungle!

You'll get lost! You'll starve!

He knows the jungle inside out

Walk in front with him!

If he runs, kill him!

Forward! Walk!

You know the region.

How far to Rio Mambuti?

I don't know. It could

be three days ... or twenty

It depends on the jungle

Which direction do we take?

Due west. No doubt about that

You make me laugh! ... How d'ya

know where west is ...

with all the detours we've made?

Don't be silly! We follow the sun

The sun! It's given you sunstroke!

Look, honey!

We must get out of this,

one way or another

I don't have to! Nobody's after me!

I'm goin' to the river

Out of the question!

Nobody's gonna squeal

to the soldiers

At least, nobody who's alive. See?

We're all together to the end

And yet we agreed yesterday ...

Come on!

Once in France we'll have ...

my seaside restaurant

My seaside restaurant!'

Ya old slob! Miserable fool!

I'll never make it!

It's all your fault!

Lemme alone! You make me sick!

You're old and ugly!

Here's your nest-egg!

That's right! I'm fed up!

She's ruthless!

Who asked for your opinion?

But she's always underfoot!

Is you song over yet?

Keep quiet!

Get some sleep. Tomorrow'll

be a tough day

Impossible!

Get up!

I can't sleep like this. Tomorrow

I'll be worthless

You'll sleep!

His rest is in our interest

Mine is to keep him here!

Where could he go?

I'll answer for him.

Tie him in front

Turn around!

The bastard!

The bastards had it all planned!

They had supplies for a week!

Let'em starve! I'll spoil

their appetite!

Let's see!

They had a lot?

I don't know what they took!

We must set out quickly, Lieutenant!

They may be out of the cavern

Bring that! Let's go!

Lieutenant, may I move off to

the right and ...

cut them off?

No need!

The river's their sole hope

They can't come this way because of us

They're in the forest. They'll

never get out

Bring that!

That's all we needed!

What happened?

Stay near Papa!

What's wrong?

I twisted my ankle

It's only a sprain

Walk or it'll swell!

I can't!

Try!

And Chenco?

It's settled!

The supplies?

Get'em if ya can!

What's wrong?

I sprained my ankle

Padre, that's how to do

unto others!

I'll pray to God to forgive you

Let's waste no time!

Come on!

It hurts!

Walk! You'll get over it

Everybody can keep up ...

except you!

They've got pains too!

Nothing!

Ya said you'd bring back food

What can I do?

The leaves are too thick

to see animals!

I just fire at random!

With a carbine!

If only I had a hunting rifle!

No one can walk without eating!

We've no choice

I can't go on!

If we stop, we'll die here

Maybe we should!

Well?

No clearings in sight!

We'll never cross those high

hills out there

We will! We have to!

In our shape ...

What's wrong with all of you?

Ya wanna die here?

The bugs'll eat you alive!
