No, so the best thing
that you can do
Is make the time pass
just as easy as you can
And take up with someone here
that has some pull with men.
Can you dig it?
Yeah, who?
Well,
I pull in a lot of weight here.
You understand what I mean?
And I needs me a new flunky
to wash my clothes,
Hang 'em up dormitory, dry...
Nigga,
who do you think you are?
You ain't bigger than a minute,
And if you don't keep
your black ass out of my way,
I'm gonna get in your eye hard.
Stay away
from the new prisoner, mickie.
You, no talking, uh?
[Taps cup]
Hey, hey, hey.
Pay attention here,
all you dumb trash.
Which one of you dykes
thinks she runs this place?
Who are you?
My name's blossom,
but that don't mean sh*t.
All you have to know
is that now I run this place.
Any other questions?
Yeah.
Where do you want
to be buried, nigga?
[Blow lands]
And it's miss nigga to you,
okay?
Okay.
That was easy to settle.
Try that on me, pig.
Ah.
Oh, ho, ho.
Oh.
Okay.
Okay, break it up.
Break it up!
What's going on here?
What's the matter?
Nothin'.
I've got a bellyache.
All right.
You've seen enough.
Make up your minds right now
which side you're gonna be on.
[Dramatic tribal music]
[Grunting]
[Grunting]
[Screaming]
Stop! Stop!
Hey, stop!
Stop it.
You two, stop it right now.
[Screaming]
[Grunting]
[Screaming]
[Shrieking]
[Water splashes]
[Yelling]
Eee!
[Water splashes]
[Water splashes]
Ah, sh*t.
We've had enough.
You win.
So far, so good.
You're gonna get it from me
when we get back to camp.
You'll see!
Say, old buddy, I think it's
time for me to take shade.
[Playful music]
Vamonos, Miguel.
I need it today.
Mail boat's late again.
You know, Miguel,
There are some pretty nasty
people in the world,
People who could
really be attractive
If they'd just
loosen up a bit.
You know what I mean.
[Unzips zipper]
[Urinating]
[Unzips zipper]
[Urinating]
Big shoes?
14 1/2...
[Zips zipper]
"D".
Can I buy you a drink,
friend?
That'd be ever so nice.
It's no use to lie to me.
I know of the trouble
that you've caused here,
And you may be sure that you'll
be made to pay for it
Unless...
Unless you give me information
Regarding the whereabouts
of your friend, django.
I don't know any django.
[Blow lands]
[Grunts]
[Blow lands]
You have been identified.
We know.
Lying will only cause you
to suffer.
Now, where is django?
I told you
I don't know any django.
Don't you think I'd tell you
Before I let this fat pansy
slap me around?
Probably, you enjoy it,
But you do know,
and you will tell me.
[Dramatic music]
[Gun clicks]
This is just a warm-up
exercise, smart mouth.
I told you,
I don't know nothin'.
I don't know this django...
[Screams]
Smarts, doesn't it?
Do you want some more, huh?
Huh?
[Cries]
What happened?
Suicide attempt.
Threw herself
on a husking knife.
Another one.
What is happening here?
Warden zappa
has doubled the quotas.
What?
He is losing his mind.
[Cries]
No, let me die.
I want to die!
[Crying]
Rocco,
the warden wants to see you.
Well, well, well.
What have we here?
A new man around the house,
moreno.
My friend,
Sam Smith.
Samuel s. Smith.
So nice to meet you.
Welcome, indeed.
The more the merrier,
I always say.
Samuel s., huh?
[Laughs]
"S" for savage.
[Laughs]
Rocco's gotten rather silly
in his old age, I'm afraid.
Why, you b*tch!
I'm only 29.
Ha!
Well, come and meet the boss.
Uh, warden, this is a fellow
I met down in the village.
His name is Smith.
That's right.
Sam Smith.
He's all right in my book,
warden zappa.
We need a new man around here.
I am looking for employment,
Mr. warden.
Why here, especially?
So far from ordinary society?
Well,
seems I'm not too well-suited
For ordinary society.
I can't imagine why.
It's true.
I can use another man,
especially right now.
All right, but I must be able
to count on your loyalty.
Fear not, warden zappa.
He's one of us already.
It's done, then.
You can start now
And help rocco take a prisoner
to the infirmary.
She's unconscious,
So you will have to be careful
with her.
This way.
Are you awake, sweetie?
This is our new playmate.
Name's Smith.
We're going to take you
to the infirmary now.
That's right, sweetie.
Sam Smith.
[Laughing]
Hey, what happened to you?
Are you all right?
I'm terrible,
But not for long.
Not for long?
What do you mean?
[Laughs]
out of here.
[Laughs]
Well, fancy meeting you
in a place like this.
Do I know you from somewhere?
You should.
You and your boyfriend
got me in here.
Oh, yeah, now I remember.
You looked a lot better there.
Thanks a lot.
All right.
So you know.
You're gonna blow
the whistle on us?
You know one reason
why I shouldn't?
Yeah.
That wouldn't get you
out of here.
You got any idea what would?
Maybe.
If you're up to it.
Try me.
This time I'm gonna get
that little chick,
And I'm gonna kick her ass
all the way to China.
[Suspenseful music]
Stop! Stop!
What are you doing, Karen?
- Help her.
- Hold her.
I can't hold her.
She's all slippery.
- Stop her!
- My God.
She's all covered
with chicken fat.
[Screaming]
Karen, no!
Stop her!
[Screaming]
Get her, for Christ's sakes!
[Screaming]
[Blows landing]
Oh, help me!
Stop it, Karen!
God damn it!
Faster!
Faster!
Come on, you're not
working hard enough.
Come on, girls, keep moving.
Let's shake a leg here.
[Pounding]
Turn that wheel faster!
Come on, you, faster.
Quick.
[Creaking]
[Crash]
[Screaming]
Fools!
Idiots!
You've ruined the mill!
It's cool.
She's an old friend.
Remember?
Oh, yeah, hi.
Hi.
Listen I got to make this fast,
first lady.
Just tell me when.
Tonight, just before dawn.
Ace and the boys are gonna be
waiting for us across the river.
Now, you think you can arrange
little riot about that time?
Hell, yeah.
I run this place.
Oh, yeah?
Christ, you wouldn't believe
what I had to go through
To get into this place.
Bye.
So you've broken the machine.
You must repair the damage!
We shall require a person
small enough
To crawl between the gaps
And another strong enough
It will be dangerous.
You will be responsible
for her safety.
[Suspenseful music]
[Grunts]
[Creaking]
It's going to fall.
Nonsense.
It's perfectly all right.
[Grunts]
[Screaming]
[Loud crash]
Come on, get her.
Help me!
Help you, you f***er!
Get this thing off.
Help me get this off, please.
Both sides.
Hold it. Hold it.
Come on.
Hold it up.
Pull it up!
[Weeping]
[Crying]
[Solemn music]
[Foreboding music]
[Grunting]
Stop!
Ahh!
Shoot!
What's the matter with you?
Shoot!
[Gunshots]
[Gunfire]
[Gunshot]
[Foreboding music]
Hold it!
What do you think you're doing?
What a lot of fools you are.
You think you're gonna get
anywhere this way?
Half of you won't get ten steps
Before you get a bullet
full of lead.
Some of us will!
That's enough.
