"A lot can happen in life, but I wouldn't think, in this wilderness, to see you and Ana, innkeppers." "Now, you knew it you did it." "You didn't ask me." "Then, all the way you told me the same thing." " Weren't there others like me who tried?" " A man has to be content with his poverty." "Because not the wealth but the tranquility of your cottage it makes you happy." "Yes I've should stay at lneu to continnue to cobble people's boots." "I was just telling you..." "my thoughts." "From cobbler you became a innkeeper" "May all of this to start in a good time." "And why not to be started in a good time?" "This placehas goodwill, and in one year we build up the money." "Money doesn't profit with anything." "You should be peacefull." "And aren't we?" "Aren't we, woman?" " What are you thinking of?" " Nothing, Ghité." "That's too much wilderness here." "Especially at night the wind blows out on the plain." "The plain is full of riding people and they are not kind-hearted." "What do I care?" "The inn is leased for three years."

"Only so I was thinking that" " Hey!" " I'm here!" " Lock the gates and the stable." " I lock them right away." "Ana, bring me the candle!" "Go to sleep, you brat!" "The merciful God gave you again a good day, Ghita." "You remember, mother?" "You said to be happy with our poverty and the peacefulness of our cottage." "It was better when I was a cobbler?"

"Within a month the thieves will steal his entire pig herd." "They are biggest bandits." "Listen innkeeper..." "Did the swineherds headman pass by?" "I do not know which swineherds headman you're talking about." "I was asking about Lica." "Lica Sémédéul!" "I don't know." "I don't know him." "He's the headman of the swineherds from the plain." "You don't know him, but he knows you even if he never saw you." "Lica can find the pig's ear even in a pitcher of cabbage." " And you say that you haven't seen him'?" " No." "He didn't come by." "Good luck, innkepper!" "Thank you!" "Let's go!" " But they didn't pay!" " Mind your own business!" "I've cut a deal with them." " What they wanted from you?" " What they wanted?" "Nothing... travelers like any others." "They came, they left" "What do we care?" " Who is Lica Sémédéul?" " I don't know, don't ask me." " Where is the innkeeper'?" " We are." "I know." "But it also can be people around." "I'm asking about the innkeeper." "I want to speak with him." "Ghigé!" "Somebody is looking for you." " Are you the new innkeeper?" " Yes." "I came by St. George." "He's Ghité, my son-in-law." "Glory to the Father" "Since we're here we are doing well." "Here are doing well to all the people with brains." "But, didn't some men pass by?" " They are many people passing by." " I was asking about three men..." "Three, four, one hundred people pass." "It's not the innkeeper's business to keep track of those who come and go." "I'm asking about three of my men." "I've sent them to see about a forest for herd." "And I don't know..." "Did they pass by or should I wait here?" "It might be those three men who drank like fouls and didn't pay." " Seemingly women have better sight." " They where mine..." "They knew I was coming behind them to pay." "But I want to talk to you." "Alone." "Ana" "The old woman should keep her mouth shut next time!" " You know me?" " No." "I am Lica, the swineherds headman." "There are much rumors about me." "Some are true, some are not." "As you see." "I walk in broad daylight and nobody stops me." "I go into town and seat and talk with the noblemen."

"I brought him to help Laie." "We're going to be more now." "Go and get some food." "Ghigé, you're here'?" "Open up!" " What?" " Pintea is looking for you." "Hail, Pintea!" "Let me give you a cup of wine." "No thanks." "I'm only passing by." "I wanted to see you and ask you something." " Didn't Lica pass by to see you yet?" " He did..." "Ghigé, I do not like it here." "Don't get mad at me..." "I'm afraid." "I don't like the people that come here and this Martzi." " Dogs" " It's nothing." "I don't like a lot of things, but I'm tired of poverty." "Two, three years We'll get through." "You hear that?" "And then" "Laie!" "Where are you, you dull?" " I'm here!" " Did you lock the gates?" "I'll lock them right away."

"It gone pass other herds too." "Come on, get up and eat me!" "Come on, hurry up, hurry up!" "Or Lica is gone kill us." "Lica said that I can take 5 butterballs." "We don't know anything." "We either pay in advance or we don't pay at all." "Perhaps they came across a mole-rat or a fox." "There's no fox." "Damn dogs." "Perhaps there is nobody at the inn." " Leave them to me!" " Smart-ass!" "You want them to bark at us each time we stop by?" "Don't you think it would be better for us to leave?" " There by St. Demetrius." " Why?" " Don't you got bored in this wilderness?" " Some times." "But I got used to it." " Aren't you scared?" " Why?" "Why'?" "By everything." "Do you hear how the dogs are barking?" "They traced something and they bark." "But I got bone-like chill." "Do you hear?" "No more barking." "Good dogs but I'm their master." "What's up with you'?" "Why do you get scared?" "I don't know." "I'm losing today for tomorrow." "Sémédéul took your peace away." "See?" "You shut up again." "You boil everything inside you and you never tell me anything." "Maybe" "Hey, do not hear?" "Call Ghigé!" "Tell him we're here." " Well, I will" " Haven't you go yet?" " Where are you going?" " Wouldn't it be better if I'm go?" "Let him come to us." "What else he has to do?" "Ghigé, wait!"

"I will do it, and do what ever suits me better on your back." "You either indulge me, or I'll bring somebody else here." "Listen to me!" "Don't you think that you can keep me here by fear." "Try to get along with me." "This is my deal!" "You can think what ever you want, but you fear me!" " Give me the keys!" " What keys?" "All of them!" "From the chest, from the cabinets..." "Who comes here, comes to make money." "You did it too." "I'm going to borrow from you." "I'm not stealing..." "I borrow and then pay up." "With how much usury you want."

"I sent it to the priest in Fundureni to tell him you're here." "That's right .." "I haven't seen him since." "For this is what I'll keep you in my mind as long as I will live." "No hard feelings!" "You can't catch me." "People like me are dangerous servants but inestimable friends." " Did I say I that want you to be my servant?" " It's OK then..." "I apprehend that wthout your help I can't stay here." "I will indulge you." "But people should believe that we don't get along." " But how are we supposed to believe you?" " As you know me."

" You had been served time?" " Yes." "We stole some horses, Lica and I." " And now you have against him?" " He did something to me, that I will not forget for life." "I'm a 38 years old, Ghigé." "If I make 40 and I'm not get him" "I'll hang myself." "But let's not waste time." " Who was here yesterday?" " Don't ask me, I can not answer that!" "Then I'll tell you what it is about." "Last night, two men with faces covered heist the landlord." "They crushed him and took all his money." "Lica did it!" "I put my head for that." " What do you think that?" " No way." "Lica slept here last night." "I can witness." "Harness the horses!" "Take your servants and come with me at lneu!" "Gendarmes will stick here." " What does Pintea want?" " I'm going at lneu with Laie and Martzi." "We're going with Pintea." "Something happened." "Close the windows, do you want to strike us out of the blue?" "God strikes only those whit bad conscience." "God God always and only Him." " Do you have a room?" " Yes, we do." "Here!" " Do you need something?" " I wish that the rain stops, so I can go ahead."

" Did they give her money at the Bank?" " Yes, they did,'cause her bag is full." "If only God would give Sémédéului a good thought" "Or do you think Sémédéul steals and she it sells?" "I do not think, I suspect." "But let it be, if I'm right..." "God saw us both." " Prepare the carriage!" " Ma'am, I say we should stay some more." " The horses are weary." " We'll remain in the middle of the road." "I said to prepare the carriage!" "Here's the bill." "Can't you give me another one'?" "This one is ragged." "Here's another one!" "This can not be!" "These servants of the innkeeper, are either stupid or paid." "Each says something different" "The one from the stables, he's not to blame." "The one who just get out, is smart." "He knows well who came in and went out yesterday night from the inn." "Yeah Let the innkeeper come in." "Come on!" "I'll tell you what!" "As things stand, you can only go home on bail." "Even you to do something like this to me'?" "Okay, Pintea." "Then my cousin, priest Andrei will come and bail me." "You are a friend of Lica Sémédéul?" "with Lica?" "I wouldn't say exactly friend." "He's a man I wouldn't want as an enemy." "But what do you gain if he's not your enemy?" "I don't gain much, but it's obvious that I might have some losses if I would have a grudge with him." "His people eats and drink." "That's why I became a innkepper." "Look at me!" "With what does the Sémédéul pay you'?" "If he doesn't have money he gives me hogs." "You know how is called that one who associates with bandits?" "Mr. Commissary, do not throw on me such a word, 'cause you ave no reason." "If you cannot clean the roads of bad people, like you think Lica is, then don't buffet those those who you leave them in distress." "Shut your mouth!" "I'll take you down." " Lica spent all night alone?" " No, a man with a woman came to him." " Who was that man?" " I don't know." " Wasn't he Réut, by any chance?" " No." " Maybe it was another." " I don't know." "It was dark, I didn't see well." " You talked abaout tha landlord with Lica?" " Yes." "I mean He asked me if" "I do not know when he was coming by." " Has anyone else heard?" " I think not." "He took me aside." "Didn't the Sémédéul say that just so he can put the blame over you?" "If it's proven that he heist the landlord?" "I don't think so." "It can't be..." "All I can swear to is that Lica slept all night at the inn." "We will sort this out too, just so you see that we can clean the roads of bandits." "I'll let loose on bail." "Begone!" "This one stays here." "Come on!" "Dear cousin, do not get bitter." "Truth, as is written in Holy Scripture, leaves like oil over water." "I've told you..." "You shouldn't have become an innkeeper." "It's clean the money, which people give's for the devil's water." " Who's this woman?" " She'll be you're waitress at the inn." "Waitress?" "I would need somebody like that, but not right now." "I thought you said that you need." "I've chose her myself." "You're bringing a spy into my house." "Don't be surprised." "I have order to search your house." "This too..." "Okay Pintea." "You tell me, on your soul, you believe me or not guilty?" "Don't ask me that because I can't answer." "These are the words I've told you this morning." "You didn't get to know me until now." "We suspect everyone." "That's our job." "Much good may it do you!" "If you believe me so or otherwise." "Halt!" "Drive!" "This is not good." "Are you ready to swear that Lica didn't do this?" " Are you out of your mind?" " Lets not waist time." "She remains there." "We 3 set afoot through the forest to look the trail." " Come on!" " I'm not going." "I'm going home." "You can't without me." "Get out of my way!" "Don't push me to a sin, Pintea!" "I can't leave my folks alone in this wilderness." "Get out of my way or I'll crush you!" "A bum like you doesn't stop me!" "Bum?" "Bum you said?" "Then you can go!" "Mr. Ghigé!" "What happens Ghité?" " Who pass by here today?" " People, of all sorts..." "Don't talk that way to me right now." "It is true that I left and didn't tell you how things are." "Find out thet last night they heist the landlord" "He was beaten to death, and stole from him money, gold and silverware." "They have suspected and me." "I only got loose on bail." "On the way we found a boyar carriage and a slaughtered child" "Who else was in that carriage?" " What's wrong with you'?" " Don't get close to me!" " Leave me alone, don't touch me!" " I have to know what's wrong whit you." "Is danger!" "Good Lord ls danger into my house." "Why are you hiding from me?" "Why?" "I'm not stupid." "Last night I wanted to take my children and leave." "To leave you to this wildeness and your passion, but I didn't had strenght." "They have heist the landlord..." "I heard you yesterday, talking to Lica." "You think I didn't see Lica coming back, returning at dawn from lneu'?" "What do you mean?" "You hooked-up with Lica robbed the landlord." "Even you..." "Yes, kill me because you're stronger then me!" "You say that I hooked-up with Lica, To robbed the landlord." "Yes, you!" "I'm sick when I think that you can share the bed and the house with a man like you think I am." " What happened?" " What?" " Not good at all." " What?" " He left alone with the deads." " Why didn't you stay there?" "There came... there came people with covered face." "I've seen they came on horses kill me." " Do you have two horses?" " I have." "We're going to the corporal." "That's Pintea." "Pintea hey!" "Where are you,?" "You stany on guard here!" "Water!" "After me!" "Where are you?" "Silvers, knife Yes." "You can make a connection." "No doubt the Séilé and Buzé-Hupté are those who heist thenlandlord." "And killed Hantl." "The whip... yes." "Lica is not the man to leave behind something at the crime scene." "And afterwards others can have whip like this." "I dutifully report, Lica Sémédéul in here, in lneu." "He came to wait on a lady from Arad for a hogs sale.." "Arrest him!" "I dutiffuly report that we couldn't search at the inn." " The innkeeper ran away." " Immediately brought him cuffed!" "I heard you found a carriage and a child dead on the roadside." "Or you think that you can also put this too my account." "I don't know." "You Pintea..." "If I where you I would convict you even if you where innocent." "You will not roll me." "I'm not the man that you can dance as you like." "If I want to, I already did." "But leave me alone Stop pestering me!" "Do not see that I'm going without any opposition?" "See that's done'?" "Laugh if you can." "Because I'll laugh tonight when I'll walk with a cigarette in mouth among these people." "Be careful is loaded." "Don't fool around!" "Lads, anyone of you go at Baron Vermesy mansion house to tell him that around 70 hogs had vanish from the herd and that I was arrested and can't look after them." "Do you see them?" "Lica Sémédéu." "I swear to tell the truth and only truth." "So help me God." "What have you talked with the innkeeper from "Moara cu noroc" about the landlord'?" "I didn't talk anything about the about the landlord at the inn." " What about the maid?" " I do not remember." "In the testimony is stated that Séilé and Buzé-Hupté left to lneu without..." "It may, but I don't remember." "Who was the woman, that Réut brought to the inn?" "Raul came to tell me that a herd had vanish." "The innkeeper and his servant must be mistaking that they saw a woman." "Do not suspect that the innkeeper from the "Moara cu noroc" was hooked-up with" "Séilé and Buzé-Hupté?" "I do not think they had heist the landlord." "Nor that they have committed the crimes on the country road." "Do you know that the silverware was found at Buzé-Ruptfis house?" "I think it was hidden there by somebody." "Maybe by one of Pintea's men who is my enemy." " Do you know these?" " I can't answer anything." "I wait for things to unravel from the others testimony." "Witness Fiéug!" "That night I went with the swineherds headman to the herds." "One got lost." "We searched for it all night, but we didn't found it." "We went in the Fundureni woods, and $icula too..." "Seemingly that Séilé and Buzé-Rupté has stole it." "I was in lneu that day when..." "these two say that they came there, but..." "Mr. Biro Zsolt knows..." "I didn't seen them, in vain they say that." "They are lying!" "I was in Fundureni forest, and I didn't see them." "And I was to $icula and I didn't see them there too." "I was at home in lneu that night and I didn't see anything" "And my wife didn't see anything too." "I was asked." "Well this is what I know." "Corporal Pintea!" "We can't accept this testimony." "Corporal Pintea is an enemy to our client." "He threatened to kill him." "We have witnesses." "I accept." "I think that Séilé and Buzé-Hupté are not guilty." "That the silverware was hidden at his house by someone else." "Réu; couldn't come at "Moara cu noroc"" "except that with a fellow." "He couldn't get a trout at night because the inn is far and they wouldn't go." "How did you walk from lneu to Salonta and nobody saw you?" "Why were you hiding?" "We didn't hide, but we didn't met with anyone." "I don't really understand." "Réu; went to Fundureni, and not to lneu." "Why is that?" "So we understand." "So Lica Sémédéul, who's our enemy and would be angry Réut, not to notice." "That is why he went to Fundureni so we could meet on up from there.." "His lying, Monday I was at Moara cu noroc and Tuesday on $icula forest." "This one is lying to buffet me." "I have four witnesses." "We have agreed with Fiéu;" "to steal a herd from Fundureni and we went thievishly at Salonta to seek for a buyer." "Honoured Tribunal, the accused words are contradicted by the facts." "These here are true culpables." "They are enemies of Lica Sémédéul." "Same as Pintea, here present." "It is clear that they could not commit the crimes in abetment with him." "Only they have purposely left" "Lica's whip near his beloved landlady body." "Albeit he defend them with chivalry." "Lica couldn't be one of the robbers, wherethrough he slept at "Moara cu noroc" We summon the innkeeper as witness." "The truth is in your hands." "You swear that night Lica stood all the time to "Moara cu noroc"?" "I can't swear he didn't left, but I swear that I thought he was at the inn all night." "On the name of His Majesty the Emperor Franz Joseph the First, we judge:" "Defendants Séilé Boarul and Buzé-Rupté are sentenced to life for robbery and murder." "No, I am not guilty!" "Lica Sémédéul is find innocent." "Innkepper Ghité is aquited for lack of evidence." "Forgive me, Ana!" "You forgive me, at least!" "I won't forgive myself as long as I live." "I have sinned anything, but I didn't wanted to belive you when you show me the right way." "Whose are these?" "The landlord or the damsel?" "From both of them." "I borrowed from you as a thief, as a thief I pay you back." " What if somebody catch me with this?" " Money is money, and you're a innkepper." "You take what anybody gives you." " And if I turn you in?" " I'm not afraid of that." "You didn't do it at the trial, now it's late." "See?" "You are a wise man." "How would benefit you if you told the judge what even him wouldn't want you to say'?" "You Ghigé..." "Nobody goes by over my ingenuity." "Neither you, nor others." "And those who wanted to mischief me, let them sit in jail if they are stupid." " What about the women in the carriage'?" " I had with her what I have with you." "She was selling gold and gems for me." "But she was about to cough me up." "And she befool me." "And for that you extinguish four souls?" "You're not human, you're evil." "You understand now?" "The one who is with me doesn't have to fear anything, the one who wants to harm me tremble like an aspen leaf." "You where an honest man, and I made a guilty man out of you." "If I want I ca take you to be hanged." " But what for?" " Don't worry!" "It doesn't suit me now." "I need a man like you." "Tomorrow I'm leaving." "Leave me alone!" "Wait!" "Now I won't let you leave." "Until now you stayed out of greed, from now on you will stay out of fear." " What do you want with me?" " What do I want?" "Many travellers perished in this inn, and have been found far away from here." "Since you're here nobody died yet." "Do you understand me?" "And no one will die as long as a I stand here." "Except of my, maybe." "You're talking like a fool." "Maybe I talked like that once." "I don't remember." "When I killed the first man, I needed some money to pay the baron some hogs that perish from his herds." "The second one I killed..." "Uh, what do you know" "Now I don't care." "You area human, Ghigé, you pile up too much hate inside you." "If you were my mate, I'll laugh even at the Devil's mother." " I am your mate." " I won't accept you." "You can manage somebdoy only with his sins or weaknesses." "Then you hold him." "But there is a weakness that I fear." "People with these weaknesses will turn you in when you won't expect." "I cop it once with Pintea, I do not want to cop it with you." " What kind of weakness?" " Women." "Worse." "The weakness for one woman." " A good week, Ghité!" " A good one..." " Is that paper good?" " God give me only these ones!" "Mm!" "What happened?" "Why did you get up?" " Where do you have this money from?" " How should I know?" "Travelers..." "Ghigé, do not play with the devil!" "You received all this money from one man." "They are all marked up, and this one was in my hand before." "I saw it before at that woman who had been murdered." "Either you're mixed up in this things or you don't know how to beware of it." " Ghigé, who gave you money?" " Travellers, how do I know" "Put the horses to the carriage." "I'm taking my children and I'm leaving." "Those kids are mine too." "Yes, they are marked." "I got them from a man who you don't know." "But you will some day." "Don't get worried if you'll see me changed." "I must bring to an end a hard matter." "I'm leaving right now so I can be back tomorrow morning." "Don't let anyone to know that I was gone!" " Where are you going?" " You'll see." "You need to have testimony that you got money from him." "But Lica will handed them to you only in private." "Then what do we do?" "A lot could be done if you were more cagey." "Do you know that your servant Martzi is one of Lisa's men'?" " Martzi?" " Wait, don't get all heated up!" "I found a cure for Martzi." "Now, listen!" "The pricked money from the bank." "There they are pull on wire and sealed." "Are the Damsel's money." "Gold and silver are from the landlord." "He also had some of those big banknotes which he had marked with a cross in a corner." "Are you able to yield Lica to me when he has this sort of maney on his strap?" " I'll do it." " Take it easy!" "Lica will ask you to exchange the money." "Maybe even to sell gold and silverware." "You come to me and I ask the landlord to exchange them." " Don't get into trouble." " That is my concern." "May God help us catch him." "So the law will govern." " It will turn out, Okay." " Might be otherwise?" "When a wife so beautiful holds the other end." "Not long to finish." "I'll make the handle on my own." "Climb the hill until you see Fundureni church steeple." "And then straight ahead." "God speed!" " Thanks!" " God bless you!" "Ghigé, I want to talk to you." "Half are yours." "Be careful when you change them, they are marked." "As it were you make me an accomplice." "But if I take them to court and I told that I have them from you?" "If you were going to do that you wouldn't told me." "Then I you know that you are a man who cares about money." "There you are!" "You'll get half of these too." "Change them and the guys." "Goto Arad tomorrow!" "And from now on we're sharing." "Soto know!" "Man, he stole a lot from the landlord." " A lot." " And all this money belong to Lica?" "All, who the hell would be, won't be mine." "Listen!" "When will you let me know that Lica's coming'?" "To land him with the money on him, like we talked about." "What do I know when he comes?" "Always comes unexpectedly." "Sometimes money, sometimes without." "That's not life." "Sometimes I feel like want to run as far as the eye commands." "Okay..." "Heaven forbid you to try to befool me!" "Wait!" "Why did you get angry?" "No, I didn't got angry." "You have the right to speak to me as you like." " What do I care?" " Come on, don't be upset!" "And I forgot that you called me a bum." "Come, let all this to pass so the justice can be sewed." "Man we have other people." "I told you I'll kill myself if I don't catch Lica." " But what did he do to you?" " He took my woman." "On Easter I'll send my family to lneu to kins.." "Then we will get him." "If there is the last thing I'll do." "Listen, Ana, I can't go with you." "xxx" "I have to wait for Lica." "Ghigé, if you stay, then I'm not going either." "Are you insane?" "Go without me!" "I'll come the next day." "I won't celebrate Easter without you." "What would people say?" "God damn the people!" "I want you to go." "Do not you hear?" "Why do you shout at me?" "Why?" " Tell me, what load you have on your mind'?" " You stand in my way." "It's okay." "That is why I'm staying." "Don't you think you can cast me away." "I care about you and I will care about you no matter how bad you treat me." "A lot you care about me!" "Honestly, you know that Lica is coming here." "That is why you want to stay." "A far lot you laps if you can say something like that." "You bow before him like a servant, not me." "God forbid, we have something on your mind because then our life will be worse than slavery." "And I'm not leaving you alone." "Mother, go alone with the children!" "Ghigé is waiting for Lica and I'm staying with him." "My dears... dears I've kipped quiet until now... but I can't anymore." "My heart is heavy as a boulder." "You leave your kins for somebody like Lica, on Easter?" "I kept quiet, but I can't anymore." "Lica is a wicked man." "Keep him away from you!" "Mama, come with us!" "Mama!" "Listen!" "Why did she stayed here?" " I couldn't make her go." " You couldn't." "You should have." "I don't come and go as you like." "I got gold, silverware, money." " Make her go away." " How do I do it?" "It's you're problem." "What do I care?" "Tell her to go away!" "God forbid you from people which have a weakness for a woman.." " I don't have any weakenss." " Yeah..." "You have!" "Now I'll put an end to this" "Good thing that she stayed there." "I have an itch in me, a big one." "Terrible itch!" "I'll bet that now we'll see musicians here." "I'm in tune!" "I would party too." "I'll turn Ghigé to go away so he will leave us alone." "Only if you can." "You are wrong if you think that my man cares so little about me." "Look how upset she get." "I've reached your heart." "If I didn't know Ghigéfs love for you, I would have snatch you a long time ago." "If I didn't know Ghigéfs love for you, I would have snatch you a long time ago." " Come lets dance." " I'm not dancing." "You've told me that before." "Come!" "Sing it to rattle!" "Now leave me alone!" "Ghigé will be upset." "I don't want otherwise." "Let's bothered him a bit." "Do not you give her to me once, on Easter day?" "Do what you want with her." "You go around and leave me here with she." "I'll say that you went to sleep in the barn attic." "It will be hard the first time After that you will be all right." " When do I come back?" " Tomorrow morning." "I'm asking you just this." "Don't disgrace me to other people." "Of course." "Rm'-!" "Put the horses to Ghi§é's waggon and go to the wedding.in $icula." "Tonight you and Paun come back and stay hidden." "Get out only at my signal." "You know which..." " I know, an oink." " Right now go!" "Who comes with me at $icula?" "It's wedding there." "We take fiddlers and drink drink until we see the moon..." "Come on Lake!" "Jump up!" " But where is Ghité?" " He went too." "I told you I'll make him go away and leave us alone?" "He's here!" "I'm telling you he is here!" "We'll wait until it get dark." "Get the horses out!" " Is this what you think now?" " You feel this kind of things." "If I would love you it would be harder to leave you." "The people thinks I'm evil because I know how to contain myself." "I wont lose my head now either." "What?" "What are you going to do?" "L am going" "You can't go and leave me alone like this." "I have to go and don't want to stay." "If you go, then take me with you!" "I can't, I don't want to see him again." "What do I do with you?" "Are you strong man, Ghita." "I hate Samédéu like I never hated a man in my life but..." "I could never use my wife as bate." "What are you waiting for?" "You said that you're leaving." "He's leaving!" "He's leaving!" "On your horses!" "After him!" "To the right." "Giddap!" "Go!" "I'm going back home to finish my issues." "The strap." "The strap." "My strap!" "One by one, one after another, man with man, all those who will sell me out life with life to be payed, because if don't kill them, they will take me to my death." "Hey Ghité!" "Do not you give her to me once, on Easter day?" "I do not want to die." "Do not kill me!" "Do not be afraid!" "You know that I think the world of you." "I will not make you suffer." "It won't hurt you." "Do not kill me." "What have I sinned?" "What do I know?" "Like an abject I've rush you into his arms." "Now I see that I did wrong." "If I would have found him here I wouldn't have killed you." " Where did you go?" " After Pintea." "To catch Lica with the ruddocks stolen from the landlord." "From him I received the marked money and the broken one." "Why didn't you tell me that?" "Because I wasn't blessed by God with that thought." "Make a cross Make a cross, there is no time!" "Help he's going to kill me!" "Help..." "Shoot!" "It's you?" "Lift me up..." "Look inside for the money, then burn it down!" "Will meet at Ineu."
