The Last King of Scotland Page #6
Because they are having
economic difficulties, let me assure you here.
Kay.
Kay.
Kay, it's OK. It's Nick.
- What?
- I'm sorry.
She went to the village.
They had to take her to hospital.
It's been reported that you crowned yourself
the last king of Scotland.
My good friends the Scottish people have
seen how I have defeated the English here
and they want me
to do the same for them there.
Yeah. This woman here.
Did you write to the queen of England,
offering yourself as a lover?
You are very cheeky.
And this is what happens
when you betray the president.
This is what happens when you betray him.
I'm not. I enjoy it.
I could spend the rest of my life getting laid.
There should be more to it
than a lot of little tingles.
They say she has a clitoris
halfway down her throat.
Is this possible?
Medically?
Almost all aberrations of nature are possible.
I made an example of her
because she betrayed me.
I brought you those headache pills
that you asked for.
Good.
No. No, that's all.
Then go.
We are busy here.
Morning.
Come on.
- Sh*t.
- Hello? Yes.
Come on.
Yes, sir.
Nicholas, there you are.
Were you trying to run away from me?
No. No.
I need you at the airport right away
to help me with the hostages.
- Hostages?
- Yes.
An Air France aeroplane has been hijacked
by our Palestinian brothers.
They have landed here at Entebbe.
The eyes of the world are on Uganda today.
Come, Nicholas. To work.
How many passengers?
How many of them are Zionist?
And television - plenty of television cameras.
Please, tell them to take the hostages
to the terminal building.
Mr President, the press is waiting for you, sir.
I wanted to assure you that the hostages
will get the best medical care.
I have made my own doctor available.
Doctor. Doctor, what's the situation here?
One woman with a heart condition
has gone to hospital, cases of shock,
and we're giving malaria pills to everyone.
- Who's not been seen by a doctor?
- We haven't.
OK, how many of you are there?
- Yourself? You've not been seen yet?
- Malaria pills. How is everybody?
Thank you very much.
OK. OK, anybody else?
OK. Take these three. The nurse
is gonna come round with water. Nurse.
Thomas.
Thomas, can you take these, please?
I'll be two minutes.
No. Don't.
Spit.
Look at you.
Is there one thing
you have done that is good?
Did you think this was all a game?
"I will go to Africa
and I will play the white man
with the natives."
Is that what you thought?
We are not a game, Nicholas.
We are real.
This room here,
it is real.
I think your death
will be the first real thing
that has happened to you.
Listen to me, Nicholas.
Listen. I know.
Yes.
I know about you
and Kay.
How could you do that to me?
I am the father of this nation, Nicholas,
and you have
most grossly offended your father.
You're a child.
That's what makes you so f***ing scary.
In my village,
when you steal the wife of an elder,
they take you to a tree
and they hang you by your skin.
Each time you scream,
the evil comes out of you.
Sometimes it can take three days
for your evil to be spent.
Pull him up.
Good evening.
I have good news.
The Israeli government
has agreed to negotiate.
So, as a gesture of good faith,
all non-lsraeli hostages will be released.
I have arranged personally
an aeroplane to come and collect you.
Yes.
He'll be here when we come back.
This way, Israelis.
Israelis, here.
They have sent a plane.
They are releasing some of the hostages.
If you go now,
you will reach them before they leave.
Here, put this on.
Why are you doing this?
Frankly,
I don't know.
You deserve to die,
but dead, you can do nothing.
Alive, you might just be able
to redeem yourself.
I don't understand.
I am tired of hatred, Dr Garrigan.
This country is drowning in it.
We deserve better.
Go home. Tell the world the truth about Amin.
They will believe you.
You are a white man.
- What about you?
- My fate is in God's hands.
Go. Now, before they come back.
- Thank you.
- Go.
Go.
Thomas.
Stop.
Where is the doctor?
I don't know.
Destination Paris.
My wife.
There are many people
who have brokered relations with Israel.
They are not only Muslims,
they are also Christians. This particular...
