The Man of the Year Page #4
How do they kill pigs?
I don't know.
I hope Bil didn't suffer.
I'm sad about Robinson, too.
But Bil kept us company, didn't he?
No one's gonna kill you.
I won't let them.
- Where have you been all night?
- I told you.
I waited up all night for you!
You could've phoned!
You didn't come home because of that
pig. Bil was a pig. Like chicken...
...they're there to be eaten.
- Give me a break, Cledir!
Don't talk to me like that. I roasted
the pig because it was your birthday.
I didn't know you liked it that much.
I do everything for you,
and you treat me like a dog.
- Then he treats you fine!
- If you don't mind!
I've got a meeting, Humberto.
Give me some time, Cledir!
Time? You've got time to go off
with those sluts! Miquel?!
Kamikaze. Kami means 'wind'
and kaze means 'divine'.
Divine wind. The hurricane that
destroyed the Mongol fleet...
which was going to invade Japan
got that name, Kamikaze.
from the Mongols.
On war against the Americans,
the Japanese suicides...
I saw that movie.
Kamikazes and Japanese got screwed
and Americans won the war.
Miquel, stop giving
the kid those almanacs.
And now she wants to learn English.
'How do you do?
How do you do?
Where is the book?
The book is on the table.'
What are you learning English for?
You hardly speak Portuguese.
So I don't speak Portuguese?
Ask me something.
Ask what?
I don't know it myself.
Whatever, ask me the
synonym of any word.
'Symonym?'
What the f***'s that?
I'll tell you. For example:
'Dumb'. Synonym, 'Marco'.
He's leaving tomorrow.
- Erica, go and have a Coke, go on.
- What are you talking about?
- Why can't I hear?
- Kamikaze stuff.
- Go.
- Sh*t.
It'll have to be tonight
at the funk rave.
Funk rave?
Sh*t, I hate funk raves.
Out, girls.
Look at the size
of that guy's arm, man!
He couldn't lift a finger
for anyone, son of a b*tch.
Spends all day at the gym,
working out, damn playboy.
Taking vitamins.
That 's something fags do.
He's a real gum fag.
Hey, are you a man?
Let me see, here.
Here, take a hit, go on.
Go on, there.
That 's it, you like
a nice snort, right?
Hey man, this stuff is taking effect...
I feel like taking a dump.
That 's right. I'll take a sh*t
and you can eat it!
Ever since I was kid I've wanted
to make someone eat my sh*t, see?
And you're the one
who's gonna eat my sh*t.
Galego, pull over.
Whose idea was it to bring
this guy along?
- Enoque couldn't make it.
- Not 'guy', friend. I've got a name.
Look here, Z Galinha.
We didn't bring anyone along to eat
sh*t. You can't do that to someone.
If I want him to eat my sh*t,
he'll eat my sh*t, okay?
And a jerk like you
won't stop him eating my...
Thanks, man.
Here's the son of a b*tch!
Nice album, kid.
Congratulations.
Hygienic work.
Hygienic and patriotic.
That 's how you build
a decent nation.
Where's the bathroom?
End of the corridor, son,
on your left.
You?
I was looking for the bathroom.
My father won't like this one bit.
In fact, he'll think
it was on purpose.
He needn't know, though, right?
In fact, he needn't find out
about what happened here.
I need to go back to the living room.
You know where the bathroom is?
I'm not sure
I'm going to let you go.
Don't do this to me.
Don't you want to f*** me?
I've got to get back.
It was 10 p.m.
My wife was away...
I was watching TV in the bedroom
when I heard a noise downstairs.
So I went down to see.
Found this black guy...
in the living room with a gun.
He was nervous...
I even said:
'You can takeanything you want. I'm alone.
Take all you want.'
So he told me to sit on the sofa.
I asked whether I could have a whisky
and he said he'd have one too.
I gave him one.
He sat down beside me...
told me his nickname was Pedro,
that his wife was pregnant...
that he hated stealing
but he was f***ed...
one of those bastards we've
seen a million times.
Get to the point, Zilmar, come on.
Hello? What?
I'll be right there.
My daughter's just been born.
- Let's have a little whisky.
- Let's celebrate, that's wonderful.
I didn't die because I managed
to drag myself to the gate...
where a neighbor found me,
all f***ed up, on the sidewalk.
So that 's your little job: Pedro.
Kneel down.
I didn't know, but Jesus
had scheduled a meeting with me.
I'm going to give myself up to him
body and soul, in church.
Keep your daughter and your wife.
- Yes?
- Is Erica in?
'Better the sadness of a smile
than the sadness.'
Erica, let's go.
Have you met Minister Marlnio?
- Pleasure. Marlnio.
- Pleasure.
- Let 's go.
- I'm reading the Bible with him.
Nothing is more important than the
words of Jesus. Jesus said:
'Now I've finally come upon you
for I'll send my wrath...'
I need to talk to you.
We can read the Bible tomorrow,
Erica, no problem.
I don't want anything to do with you.
I was 12 when I saw my father die...
and decided no one would
make me suffer again.
You killed Suel...
and that didn't throw me,
I didn't go to the cops.
and you did.
You married and I didn't kill myself.
You had a daughter...
started getting rich, going around
with big shots and leaving me alone.
That hurt, you leaving me alone.
But Marlnio taught me that
God is always near us.
heart doesn't need anyone else.
That stupid f***ing preacher's
filling your head with bullshit.
I love you, Erica.
Prove it.
What do you want me to do?
Cut my arm off?
Cut my left leg off?
You want me to cut my cock off?
Do you?
No way you'd do it.
You do nothing for me.
I'll do anything you say,
anything at all.
I want Cledir to disappear
from our lives.
Welcome to the Lord's Realm.
The door might look narrow,
but Jesus's heart is very wide.
It's so wide and friendly that has
room for the saint and the sinner.
Inside of it there's room for me,
you, everybody.
Those away from Jesus
are the ones who should fear.
That 's because they walk
hand in hand with the devil.
And God sees all.
God knows all.
And punishes everyone most terribly
for crimes committed.
Think about it, brothers and sisters.
Let's be in peace with our Lord
and Savior Jesus Christ.
Hallelujah.
PEDRO DAMACENO:
SHOT TO DEATH:
Where have you been lately?
I never see you at home.
I'm working at the Church
of the Almighty Heart of Jesus.
I've come to return your key.
I'm moving there.
Where did you say you're living?
At the Church of the
Almighty Heart of Jesus.
Marlnio arranged it.
You know where it is.
- Who's Marlnio?
- What are you doing there?
That's none of your business.
Who's Marlnio?
- Right, that's none of your business.
- Who's this Marlnio?
My minister.
I clean the church, wash, cook,
fill in and stamp the cards...
- What cards?
- The congregation's cards.
Let her live at the church,
