"You know, I bet I could fry an egg on your head right now... if I wanted to." "You know kiddo," "I'd like to believe that you're aware enough even now... to know that there is nothing sadistic in my actions." "Maybe towards those other jokers, but not you." "You know kiddo, this moment, this is me at my most masochistic." "Bill, it's your b" "Coming." " Sarah, I cannot believe you are early!" "Come on bitch." "Come on." "Mommy, I'm home." "Hey baby." "How was school?" "Mommy, what happened to you and TV room?" "Oh, that good-for-nothing dog of yours, got his ass into the living room and acted like a damn fool." "That's what happened baby." "Barney did this?" "Baby, you can't come in here." "There's broken glass everywhere." "You could cut yourself." "This is an old friend of mommy's I haven't seen in a long time." "Hi honey." "I'm ?" "." "What's your name?" "Her name is Nikki." "Nikki, such a pretty name for such a pretty girl." "How old are you Nikki?" "Nikki, ?" "asked you a question." "I'm four." "Four years old, eh." "You know, I had a little girl once." "She'd be about four now." "Now baby, me and mommy's friend have grown up stuff to talk about." "I want you to go in your room now and leave us alone till I tell you to come out." "OK?" "Nikkia." "In your room, now." "You want some coffee?" "Yeah, sure." "This Pasadena's homemaker's name is Jeanny Bell." "Her husband is Dr. Lawrence Bell." "But back when we were acquainted four years ago, her name was Vernita Green." "Her code name was Copperhead." "Mine, Black Mamba." "Can I have a towel?" "Yeah." "Thanks." "Still take cream and sugar, right?" "Yeah." "I suppose it's a little late for an apology, huh?" "You suppose correctly." "Look bitch," "I need to know if you're going to start any shit around my baby girl." "You can relax for now." "I'm not going to murder you in front of your child, OK?" "You need to be more rational because I don't know what you're capable of." "It's mercy, compassion, and forgiveness I lack." "Not rationality." "I know I fucked you over." "I fucked you over bad." "I wish to God I hadn't, but I did." "You have every right to get even." "No." "Get even?" "Even Steven?" "I would have to kill you." "Go to Nikkie's room, kill her." "Then wait for your husband the good Dr. Bell to come home and kill him." "That would be even Steven." "Assim vingarás Steven." "That would leave us square." "Look, if I could go back in a machine I would, but I can't." "All I can tell you is that I'm a different person now." "Oh, great." "I don't care." "Be that as it may, I know I don't deserve your mercy or your forgiveness." "However, I beseech you for both on behalf of my daughter." "Bitch." "You can stop right there." "Just because I have no wish to murder you before the eyes of your daughter... does not mean that parading her around in front of me is going to inspire sympathy." "You and I have unfinished business." "And not a God damned fucking thing you've done in the subsequent 4 years, including getting knocked up, is going to change that." "When do we do this?" "It all depends." "When do you want to die?" "Tomorrow?" "The day after tomorrow?" " How about tonight, bitch?" " Splendid." "Where?" "There a baseball diamond where I coach a little league about a mile from here." "We meet there around 2:30 in the morning, dressed all in black, your hair in a black stocking, we'll have us a knife fight." "We won't be bothered." "And now, I have to fix Nikki cereal." "Bill always said you were one of the best ladies he ever saw with an edge weapon." "Fuck you bitch." "I know he didn't qualify that shit." "So you can just kiss my motherfucking ass, Black Mamba." "Black Mamba." "I should have been motherfucking Black Mamba." "Weapon of choice?" "Hey, if you want to stick with your butcher knife, that's fine with me." "Very funny bitch." "Very funny!" "It was not my intention to do this in front of you." "For that I'm sorry." "You can take my word for it." "Your mother had it coming." "When you grow up, if you still feel raw about it..." "I'll be waiting." "For those regarded as warriors" "When engaged in combat... the vanquishing of thine enemy can be the warrior's only concern." "Suppress all human emotion and compassion kill whoever stands in thy way, even if that be Lord God, or Buddha himself." "This truth lies at the heart of the art of combat." "Well, give me the gory details, son number one." "It's a God damn massacre, pop." "They wiped out the whole wedding party, execution style." "Give me a figure." "Nine dead bodies." "We're talking the whole shebang." "Bride, groom, reverend..." "reverend's wife." "Hell, they even shot that old colored fellow that plays the organ." "Appears to me somebody objected to this union and wasn't able to hold their peace." "Good green Marie!" "What'd I tell you, pop!" "Like a God damn Nicaraguan death squad." "Shitcan that language, boy." "You're in the house of mercy." "Sorry pop." "Well, it's definately the work of professionals." "My guesstimate:" "Mexican mafia hit squad." "Four, maybe five strong." "How can you tell?" "Well it's sure a steady hand did this." "It ain't no squirrelly amateur." "This was the work of a salty dog." "You can tell by the cleanliness of the carnage." "Now, a kill-crazy rampage though it may be, all the fellers are dead inside the line." "If you was a moron, you could almost admire it." "Who's the bride?" "Don't know." "The name on the marriage certificate is Arlene Macchiavelli." "That's a fake." "We've always been calling her the bride on account of her dress." "You can tell she's pregnant." "Man had to be a mad dog to shoot a goddamned good looking gal like that in the head." "Look at her." "Eight-colored hair, big eyes." "She's a blood splattered angel." " Son number one..." " Yeah." "Call Regan." "The cock sucker ain't dead." "I might never have liked you." "Quite in fact, I despise you." "But that shouldn't suggest that I don't respect you." "Dying in our sleep is a luxury that are kind is rarely afforded." "My gift... to you." "For God's sake!" "Hello Bill." "What's her condition?" "Comatose." "Where is she?" "I'm standing over her right now." "That's my girl." "Elle, you're going to abort the mission." "We owe her better than that." "No, you don't owe her shit!" "Will you keep your voice down?" "You don't owe her shit." "May I say one thing?" "Speak." "Y'all beat the hell out of that woman, but you didn't kill her." "And I put a bullet in her head but her heart just kept on beating." "Now you saw that yourself with your own beautiful blue eye." "Did you not?" "We've done a lot of things to this lady." "And if she ever wakes up, we'll do a whole lot more." "But one thing we won't do is sneak into her room in the night, like a filthy rat and kill her in her sleep." "And the reason we won't do that thing is because that thing would lower us." "Don't you agree, Miss Driver?" "I guess." "Do you really have to guess?" "No, I don't really have to guess." "I know." "Come on home, honey." "Affirmative." "I love you very much." "I love you too." "Bye bye." "Thought that was pretty fucking funny, didn't you?" "A word of advise, shit head..." "Don't you ever wake up." "At this moment, this is me, in my most masochistic." "Bill, it's your b" "The price is 75 dollars a fuck, my friend." "You getting you freak on or what?" "Oh yeah boy." "Ten, twenty, thirty... yeah." "Now here's the rules." "Rule number one, no punching her." "The nurse comes in tomorrow and she's got a shiner or some less teeth, the jig's up." "So no knuckle sandwiches under no circumstances." "And by the way, this little cunt's a spitter, it's a motor reflex thing." "But spit or no, no punching." "Now are we absolutely positively clear on rule number one?" "Yeah." "Good." "Rule number two." "No monkey bites or hickeys." "In fact, no leaving no marks of no kind." "After that, it's all good, buddy." "Her plumming down there don't work no more, so feel free to come in her all you want." "Keep the noise down and try not to make a mess." "I'll be back in twenty." "Oh shit." "By the way, not all the times, but sometimes this chick's cooch can get dryer than a bucket of sand." "If she dries, lube up with this and you'll be good to go." "Bon apetit, buddy." "Oh yeah." "God damn." "You are the best looking girl I've had today." "Yo, stud, time's up buddy." "Coming in, ready or not." "Hey buddy, did you have yourself a good time?" "Where's Bill?" "!" "Where's Bill?" "!" " Please stop hitting me." " Where's Bill?" "!" " I don't know who Bill is!" " Bullshit!" "Well, aint you the slice of cutie pie they said you was." "Jane Doe, huh?" "Oh, we don't know shit about you at all." "I'm from Huntsville Texas." "My name's Buck, and I'm here to fuck." "Your name's Buck, right?" "And you came here to fuck." "Right?" "Wiggle your big toe." "As I lay in the back of Buck's truck trying to will my limbs out of entropy." "Wiggle your big toe." "I could see the faces of the cunts who did this to me." "And the dicks responsible." "Members all of the Deadly Viper Assassination Squad." "When fortune smiles on something as violent and ugly as revenge, it seems proof like no other that not only does God exist, you're doing his will." "At a time when I knew the least about my enemies, the first name on my death list," "O-Ren Ishii was the easiest to find." "But of course when one manages the difficult task of becoming queen of the Tokyo underworld, one doesn't keep it a secret, does one?" "O-Ren Ishii was born on an American military base in Tokyo, Japan." "The half Japanese, half Chinese American army brat made her first acquaintance with death at the age of nine." "It was at that age that she witnessed the death of her parents at the hands of Japan's most ruthless Yakuza boss, Matsumoto." "Mommy!" "She swore revenge." "Luckily for her, boss Matsumoto was a pedophile." "At eleven, she got her revenge." "Look at me, Matsumoto take a good look at my face." "Look at my eyes." "Look at my mouth." "Do I look familiar?" "Do I look like somebody... you murdered?" "!" "By twenty she was one of the top female assassins in the world." "At twenty-five she did her part in the killing of nine innocent people, including my unborn daughter, in a small wedding chapel in El Paso, Texas." "But on that day, four years ago, she made one big mistake." "She should have killed ten." "However, before satisfaction be mine," "First thing first: wiggle your big toe." "Hard part's over." "Now, let's get these other piggies wiggling." "Welcome to Arrow." "May I help you?" "Okinawa..." "One way." "Hi." "Welcome..." "Welcome." "You English?" "Almost..." "American." "American." "Welcome then." "Domo." "My English... very good." "You say domo, very good, can you speak Japanese?" "No, oh no." "Just a few words I learned since yesterday." "Um, may I sit at the bar?" "Oh sure sure, please, sit." "What other words did you learn?" "Oh, excuse me." "We have a customer." "Bring out some tea, quickly." "I'm watching my soap operas." "Lazy bastard..." "Screw your soap opera... hurry up!" "The tea's hot." "Why don't you serve it yourself for once?" "Shut up, get your ass out here." "Excuse me." "Ahhh what other Japanese... do you know?" "Oh, let's see." "Arigato." "Arigato... good!" "Um I already said domo, right?" "Yeah." "Oh yea yea yea." "Konijiwa." "Ah ah ah." "Konichiwa." "Ko-ni-chi-wa, please repeat." "Konichiwa." "Ah, that's good." "Good, good." "You say Japanese words like you Japanese." " Now you're making fun of me." " No no no." "Serious business." "Pronunciation very good." "You say arigato, like we say arigato." "Well thank you." "I mean, arigato." "You should learn Japanese." "Very easy." "No kidding." "I heard it was kind of hard." "Most of the words, but you have a Japanese tongue." "OK OK omachikasama." "Oh my God," "Hey, what the hell happened to the tea?" "Hurry up... goddammit!" "Lazy oaf..." "What d'ya want?" "I beg your pardon?" "Drink." "Oh yes, um, a bottle of warm sake please." "Warm sake?" "Very good!" "One warm sake!" "Sake?" "In the middle of the day?" " Day, night, afternoon - Who gives a damn" " Get the sake!" "How come I always have to get the sake?" "You listen well..." "For thirty years, you make the fish, I get the sake." "If this were the military," "I'd be General by now." "Oh, so you'd be General, huh?" "If you were General, I'd be Emperor, and you'd still get the sake - and you'd still get the sake - So shut up and get the sake." "I'm not bald, okay?" "I shaved my head." "Sorry." "Oh, first time in Japan?" "Uh huh." "What brings you to Okinawa?" "I came to see a man." "Oh yeah." "You have a friend here in Okinawa?" "Not quite." "A friend?" "I never met him." "Never?" "Who is he?" "May I ask?" "Hattori Hanzo." "What do you want with Hattori Hanzo?" "I need Japanese steel." "Why do you need Japanese steel?" "I have vermin to kill." "You must have big rats if you need Hattori Hanzo steel." "Huge." "May I?" "You may." "Wait." "Try the second one down." "You like samurai swords, I like baseball." "I wanted to show you these." "However someone as you, who knows so much, must surely know I no longer make instruments of death." "What I have here I keep for their aesthetic and sentimental value." "Yet proud as I am of my life's work I have retired." "Then give me one of these." "These are not for sale." "I didn't say sell me." "I said give me." "Why... should I help you?" "Because my vermin is a former student of yours." "And considering the student, I'd say you have a rather large obligation." "You can sleep here." "It will take me a month to make the sword." "I suggest you spend it practicing." "I've completed doing what I swore an oath to God, 28 years ago," "...to never do again." "I have created "something that kills people."" "And in that purpose, I was a success." "I've done this because philosophically," "I am sympathetic to your aim." "I can tell you with no ego, this is my finest sword." "If on your journey, you should encounter God God will be cut." "Yellow-haired warrior..." "Go." "It was one year after the massacre in El Paso, Texas, the Bill backed his Nippon progeny financially and philosophically in her Shakespearian-in-magnitude power struggle with the other Yakuza clans over who would rule vice in the city of Tokyo." "When the final sword was sheathed, it was O-ren Iseii and her powerful posse, the Crazy 88, that proved the victor." "The pretty lady to O-ren's right, who's dressed like she's a villain on Startrek, is O-ren's lawyer, best friend and second lieutenant, the half-French-half-Japanese, Sofie Fatale." "Another former protege of Bill's." "The young girl in the school uniform is O-ren's personal body guard, 17-year-old GoGo Yubari." "GoGo may be young, but what she lacks in age, she makes up for in madness." "Do you like Ferraris?" "Ferrari..." "Italian trash." "Do you want to screw me?" "Don't laugh!" "Do you want to screw me, yes or no?" "Yes." "How 'bout now, big boy?" "Do you still wish to penetrate me or is it I or is it I... who has penetrated you?" "See what I mean?" "The bold guy in a black suit and Kato mask, is Johnny Mo." "The head general of O-ren's personal army, the Crazy 88." "And just in case you're wondering how could a half-breed-Japanese-Chinese-American become the boss of bosses in Tokyo, Japan," "I'll tell you." "The subject of O-ren's blood and nationality came up before the council only once, the night O-Ren assumed power over the crime council." "The man who seems bound and determined to break the mood is Boss Tanaka." "And what Boss Tanaka thinks is..." "Boss Tanaka!" "What's the meaning of this outburst?" "This is a time for celebration!" "And what exactly are we celebrating?" "The perversion of our illustrious council?" "Tanaka, have you gone mad?" "I will not tolerate this!" "You're disrespecting our sister!" "Apologize!" "Tanaka-San, of what perversion do you speak?" "My father along with yours, and along with yours, started this council." "And while you laugh like stupid donkeys they weep in the afterlife..." " Shut up!" "...over the perversion committed today!" "Outrageous!" "Tanaka, it is you who insults this council!" "Bastard!" "Fuck face!" "Gentlemen." "Tanaka obviously has something on his mind." "By all means, allow him to express it." "I speak, of the perversion done to this council, ...which I love more than my own children, ...by making a Chinese Jap-American half breed bitch its leader!" "So that you understand how serious I am I'm going to say this in English." "As your leader," "I encourage you from time to time and always in a respectful manner, to question my logic." "If you're unconvinced a particular plan of action I've decided is the wisest, tell me so." "But allow me to convince you." "And I promise you right here and now, no subject will ever be taboo... except of course the subject that was just under discussion." "The price you pay for bringing up either my Chinese or my American heritage as a negative is," "I collect your fuckin head." "Just like this fucker here." "Now if any of you sons of bitches got anything else to say, now's the fucking time." "I didn't think so." "Gentlemen, this meeting is adjourned." "One ticket to Tokyo,please." "You have to say "Yes, yes, yes" to any selfish demands they make." "They demand ridiculous things." "Shut up..." "Do you know what would happen if they heard you?" "What's gonna happen?" "Did you hear about the Tanaka clan?" "You're gonna get your head chopped off." "No, I don't want that." "Yes, it's me." "And if you give us a contact number, we will get back to you." "Who do you remind me of?" "Charlie Brown!" "You're right, he does look like Charlie Brown." "Charlie Brown." "Four pepperoni pizzas." "That's not on our menu..." "I don't care, bring them, goddammit!" "Hey... hey..." "Charlie, give me a kiss." "O-Ren Ishii!" "You and I have unfinished business!" "Charlie Brown, beat it." "Miki." "TEAR THE BITCH APART!" "So O-ren, any more subordinates for me to kill?" "Gogo, right?" "And you're Black Mamba." "Our reputations precede us." "Don't they?" "GoGo, I know you feel you must protect your mistress." "But I beg you... walk away." "You call that begging?" "You can beg better than that." "Is that what I think it is?" "You didn't think that'd be that easy, did you?" "You know, for a second there, yeah, I kind of did." "Silly rabbit, Trix are for kids." "THIS IS WHAT YOU GET FOR FUCKING AROUND WITH YAKUZAS!" "Go home to your mother!" "Those of you lucky enough to still have your lives take them with you!" "However leave the limbs you've lost." "They belong to me now." "Except you Sofie, you stay right where you are." "Your instrument is quite impressive." "Where was it made?" "Okinawa." "Whom in Okinawa made you this steel?" "This is Hattori Hanzo's steel." "YOU LIE!" "Swords however, never get tired." "I hope you've saved your energy." "If you haven't you might not last five minutes." "But as last looks go, you could do worse." "Silly Caucasian girl likes to play with samurai swords." "You may not be able to fight like a samurai, but you can at least die like a samurai." "Attack me with everything you have." "For ridiculing you earlier I apologize." "Accepted." "Ready?" "Come on." "That really was a Hattori Hanzo sword." "Sofie, Sofie, my Sofie..." "I'm so sorry." "Please, please forgive my betrayal..." "No more of that." "But still, I, I..." "But still nothing, except my aching heart over what she's done to my beautiful and brilliant Sofie." "I've kept you live for two reasons." "First reason is information." "Burn in Hell, you stupid, stupid blonde!" "Burn in Hell, you stupid, stupid blonde!" "I'll tell you nothing." "But I am gonna to ask you questions." "And every time you don't give me answers," "I'm gonna cut something off." "And I promise you, they will be things you will miss." "Give me your arm!" "I want all the information on the Deadly Vipers," " what they've been doing and where I can find them." " If you had to guess why she left you alive, what would be your guess?" "Guessing won't be necessary." "She informed me." "She said I could keep my wicked life for two reasons." "As I said before," "I've allowed you to keep your wicked life for two reasons." "And the second reason is," "So you can tell him, in person, everything that happened here tonight." "I want you to witness the extent of my mercy by witnessing your deformed body." "I want you to tell him, all the information that you just told me." "I want him to know what I know." "I want him to know I want him to know." "And I want them all to know, they'll all soon be as dead as O-ren." "Revenge is never a straight line." "It's a forest." "And like a forest it's easy to lose your way to get lost... to forget where you came in." "That woman deserves her revenge." "And we deserve to die." "She must suffer to her last breath." "How did you find me?" "I'm the man." "One more thing Sofie... is she aware, her daughter is still alive?"
