Neath, a merciless sun
across the trackless desert
March. The men of the foreign Legion,
unwanted men,
the forsaken of 100 nations,
they came to the legion to forget.
Our story is about two men whom the Foreign Legion would like to forget
and they were unwanted
even in Brooklyn.
But let us start at the beginning
and the cause of it. All
these two wrestlers,
the crowd
hold it,
hold it, hold everything.
Keep that crowd quiet.
Why?
Bye bye.
That'll keep you quiet.
Mr Jones.
This guy ain't following a script. He was supposed to stand still and let me but him.
Now listen, you
when the script says you get butted, you get butted. What a rehearsal.
No emotion, no fire, no nothing.
The best script I ever wrote. You guys smell it up. Tell him he's the one I can't read.
I don't have to read. I'm the wrestling champion in all North Africa.
Don't you guys realize that nobody's gonna make good money just to see
rings. You've gotta dramatize it,
you've gotta suffer it. You've gotta,
there. You are.
Don't get that expression of suffering.
That's
a
hold that expression lou I want the boys to study it. Hold it.
Ok. Lou, that's enough. Don't ham it up. Come on,
come on, get out.
Come on, come
on,
come on, come on.
I want you to show these guys how to do their parts.
Uh First of all, you'll stand in for Abdullah. Come on.
Now we'll start from the top of page five.
Uh Wait a minute. Here we are.
Now be charges him with a drop kick. Abdullah goes down but is he hurt?
No, he looks up at Bert
and sneeze with contempt. Now, wait a minute
now. Watch
Kly. Go ahead.
No, no, no, no, no. Come on.
Don't take so long to fall down.
I want Abdullah to get the proper timing.
Come on. Come on. Come on.
I'm awfully sorry. It took me so long to fold down. All right. All right.
Now you're bird. You're bird. Abdullah
retaliate
lou. When you fall, pastor,
you're throwing up the whole action of this script
and I'm not a bit happy about that fall.
That makes two of us.
Do you want me to do it again? Mr Jones? No, certainly not. I don't want you to get hurt.
Uh Look, take the next move
and really part on this time. Go ahead.
Do this.
No, no, no, no.
Abdullah can't. You bounce him a little harder.
We're not getting the right sound effect.
What you do.
That's it.
Get the idea.
You're taking a terrific beating and who is murdering you.
You can take it.
Thanks. I always do my best.
I'm not wearing yacht. Am I? No?
What
this?
All right, Abdullah, that's enough. I don't want you to tire yourself out first.
Hang
over.
Mhm.
That was fine. Bert.
Are you tired? No. Are you tired? No. Whose turn is it? Mine? All right.
Will toss for it.
Head.
It's tails. I win. We'll do the Boston routine. The Boston routine,
the Boston routine. Boston routine.
Now,
wait a minute.
Let's do the whirlwind finale. That's the one
you
but
give me off this merry go round.
Bye.
That's fine. That's it.
That's just what I'm looking for. What a touch. It's beautiful. You,
you the victorious hero
and you beaten into surrender, crawling away like a whipped dog.
Abdullah's no whip dog. I'm a great champion. I never lose.
But Abdullah, you won last week in Boston tomorrow night. It's Burt's turn.
You know, after all, he's a big favorite in this town.
Abdullah's the greatest wrestler in the world. I never lose.
I'll quit first and return to my tribe now. Wait a minute.
Let's take it easy, brother.
You know, you've got to sign contract with us
and remember I borrowed five grand from the
syndicate to bring you over here from Algiers.
I don't care. Abdullah says goodbye.
But what about the five grand? Say goodbye to that too.
I'm taking the first boat home.
Hey, stupid.
Come on. Stupid. Abdullah walked out on us. We've got to get him back.
We'll be in plenty of trouble if that guy blows down. What guy blows down.
What did you say? What guy blows down? How can you talk with your mouth shut? Well,
Abdullah blew.
What do you got to say, Josie?
Well, if you're talking about the five grand boss, don't worry about that.
I'll get it back for you. Five grand. Small change.
The set up we got for Abdullah is worth 100 grand.
You wouldn't want us to lose that kind of dough.
But would you Jonesy?
All
aye
partic.
Uh, uh,
don't, don't give it a second thought. Uh, Frankie,
we get Abdullah back if we have to chase him around the four corners of the globe.
Don't worry about a thing.
Come on.
Excuse me. But do you mind if I ask you a question? Just what are we doing here?
We're looking for Abdullah. We are sure he bought a ticket for Algiers.
Our neighbor, Dino Abdulah, the wrestling,
the ras
Abdullah.
We show him a picture here.
This is the way he looks undressed. That's it.
And here's the way he looks dressed.
He wears the headdress of the
Yaya tribe.
Oh, so you know him. Oh, no, no, no, I know nothing. I want no trouble now. Go away.
Go away,
go away.
Oh,
he is ugly.
Oh, I wish we could find someone around here to give us a sensible answer. So do I,
she's beautiful.
Hey, Bud,
I'll get some sense out of this here one, I'll ask her.
I,
but come here,
come here. What's the matter you talk to this lady? Maybe she can have
a close,
this
is mine. This is the one
you
do. You happen to know Abdullah, the wrestler
wrestler,
these wrestlers are very strong and they, they,
they try to get a hold on you and then they put their, um,
and they, they, sometimes they, they, they, they,
they sort of pick a lip and, and on the head you get it and then sometimes,
and then, then again, they, they, they give you a headlock, right?
They, they,
they, they,
you, you don't know how to wrestle.
Can I show you?
You, you see I'm your opponent
and then, then you take one arm and
put it around your opponent and you take the other arm
and put it on your opponent and then sometimes your opponent,
once you give you a bear hug and he,
he, he,
he,
what's the idea of kissing?
I
kiss.
What is this? What,
what are you trying to do? Get us killed in this country?
Men don't get familiar with women. They don't. Certainly not.
We're going to kiss them. No. And, and don't they go out with them? No, they don't.
And don't they?
No, no, no,
they don't. No.
Boy, is that woman in the wrong country?
Will you?
Maybe there's a hotel, let's check in. Ok,
get out of my way. You stay outside and watch for Abdullah Abdullah Abdullah.
I'll do
it.
Oh, you sit down there and keep her eyes open? Oh yeah, just a minute.
Here's a tip for carrying her bags. Put that down, put that down, put it back.
But that does
ar
please.
I,
then
what is it? I must see Joseph at once.
His excellency, Sheikh Hammoud
and Sergeant
Aman are with Joseph. I have important information.
Um
ok,
Joseph, not now out.
Why didn't you warn me? A
that the legionnaires would be guarding the construction
camp last night's attack cost me 12 men.
It was worth it. She came
this morning at the commandant's office,
the railroad company engineers were raging
on this very map.
They showed him
that unless he can clear the desert of your Raiders,
they won't be able to lay the tracks from Benny Abe
to Guada.
The company will be forced to build the railroad the long way around
at a cost of £1 million.
What did the commandant say?
He promised the more troops,
a
full company will proceed tonight from Fort
Elmo here to be a
base here,
cut them off and destroy them at
Galileo
and the construction camps will be at our mercy. Always more tax. What about money?
If you can stop work on the railroad for another 30 days,
the company will have to pay us whatever we demand.
He insists his information cannot wait.
There are two Americans in town
with your cousin Abdullah.
What do they want with my cousin?
I don't know your excellency.
They may be spies for the railroad company.
Camoo
has suggested you leave Algier immediately.
As soon as I finish my business at the slave auction,
these Americans
and spoil everything
they will be taken care of excellency
by I,
he never fails.
I don't want anything to happen to them in the streets.
Hybrid is why
we'll drag them into an alley and, uh,
point out the Americans title.
Yes, sir.
No,
there's one of them
go with these and find the other.
Right.
Right
again.
No. No,
I,
yeah,
looking for,
yeah.
Yeah.
Hi guys.
I
love,
wait a minute, fellas.
I don't know what this is all about.
Is it because I kissed a girl?
Huh?
I hope not.
I've never been in such trouble before in my life and excuse me, please,
time
I'll pick it up.
What a nightmare.
Yes.
You,
yeah.
Oh.
Mhm.
Please.
No. Christopher.
What,
what are you doing in here?
There are some men outside chasing me.
But if you are found in here with the girls, you will be killed.
If I found outside with the men, they'll kill me too. Me. Yeah,
there are no men out there. Are you sure
she go
up for yourself? I think I will.
No.
Hey,
where a
gun?
Oh,
they're out there.
They're out there.
Yeah.
Those are the men from the Al
mania tribe. Is that bad? If they find you, they will kill you. That's bad.
You cannot go in there. If the guards find you with the slave girls, then we kill you.
At least there. I'll die. Happy.
Open the door, we break it down.
Hey, fellas, stand back and take a run and break the door down.
Thank you.
No.
Why?
No, you don't get up on your feet.
Get up on your feet.
That's all you want to do is rest.
I said get up.
I told you to keep your eyes open. Watch out for Abdulah, didn't I?
I did as soon as my back is turning to go to sleep.
I found three members of the al mana tribe
where I opened my eyes and here they were right here here.
Did they tell you where Abdul is? They were too busy chasing me.
They chased me right into a room full of girls and never mind the girls.
Tell me about the men. All the girls beautiful, especially the one. Never
mind.
Forget about,
forget about the girls. Tell me about the men. What do they get?
They didn't appeal to me. They were girls. The girls never,
I never saw
you. Would you please tell me about the men?
Oh,
the man. Yes,
they were fish. Yes, they were big.
They look like that. And one guy had a face.
He had a face all over a face with a big mustache.
Oh my
God. Yes. And they had knives and they had little knives too.
They got another name for them. Dirks. Yeah. The whole trade. Them were Dirks.
The
fact that
they, they, they look like these guys
and then every time I took a step they would take a step.
Come on, I think so.
Father.
Oh,
yeah.
But
I wanna go home. There's something I want to take back to America. What me?
Will you stop acting like a coward who's acting? We can't go home.
If we go home, Frankie will have us bumped off.
We're safe as long as we stay here in the crowd.
And now gentlemen, lot number 36 3 slave girls.
You must buy all three or none. We cannot break up the set.
Do I have a bid?
I have a bid of 5000 francs. Do I have more? Do I hear more?
10,000 francs from the great desert sheik
and the other bid and the other bid
10,000. 10,000.
I
do his excellency.
Slave girls, slave girls and slave girls is the girl you take home. She cooks for you.
She sews for you. She does all your washing and
she's a servant for the rest of your life.
In Algiers. They call them slave girls in America. We call them wives.
Ok.
Well,
no cheers.
They're over there.
Not while I'm here you fool.
It might bring the legion.
And now lot number 37 6 beautiful girls.
The prize of the auction Prince Muza Ben Mahmud is liquidating his holdings.
Just look at these gorgeous desert flowers.
Do I have a bed?
Hey,
there's a girl. I met one of those guys were chasing me.
You have no time to bother with her.
Hey, wait a minute.
This name set up might be just the thing to attract Abdullah.
Let's look around, see if he's in the crowd
from the great desert
sheet.
I now have a bit of 10,000 francs.
Do you hear more? Do I hear more?
I now have 15,000.
Any other bid. Any other bid?
I now have 20,000.
I now have 60,000 francs.
The sheep bids 80
I have now 9100,
120
100 and 25
100 and 40,000,
100 and 60,000 francs,
100 and 60,000. Any other bid? Any other bid?
100 and 60,000?
Hi.
What happened?
Some American bought all these slave girls.
Hey,
get a load of that guy over there.
He looks mad enough to slit somebody's throat.
Oh
him, he's my pal.
He was waving at me all through the auction and somebody said,
sold American and he stopped,
he was waving at you.
Yes, he was going like that.
So I waved back.
Why you nt
with
you bought the girls
let's get out of here. Come on,
let me congratulate you and you can pay me the money now.
I'm sorry, neighbor. But my friend changed his mind to deal us all.
You can't call it off.
Sheikh Ham would be a fortune for this girl. Can't help what he bid.
But you must buy them. I can, he just changed my mind for me.
Perhaps you would let me talk to them. I may make them change their mind again.
Oh, my ma
boos
are not like six beautiful girls to serve you six pairs of
feet to do their running six pairs of hands to do their bidding
and six pair of lips to do my kiss. Ah, love lady.
Excuse me?
Yes.
All right.
You're beautiful.
May I kiss one of your six para lips?
But what is this again? Who keeps putting those stings in my mouth? Lady?
This guy hasn't got enough dough to buy you quiet slave.
Do you think maybe the auctioneer he would take,
say 75 cents down and maybe a dollar and a quarter a month?
I mean, do you think that? Shut up, you stupid fool?
You've ruined all my plans for months.
I've been trying to enter the household of sheikh of
the al mana tribe and you outbid him.
I'm sorry, I'm
sorry,
I'd like to talk to that sheikh.
You know, we're looking for one of the members of his tribe.
Uh Lou show her a picture of Abdullah can't come. I cannot wait all day for my money.
01 moment
I must see you later. Where can I meet you? We checked into the Hotel International.
I'll contact you. How are you gonna get out of here?
I am in no danger. I'll manage.
Oh, he would like to think it over.
Think it over six beautiful girls for only 160,000 francs. 160,000. Yes.
And it's a good buy a what? A good bye. Good bye
the legion.
Mmm.
Hi.
And the skip and the jump
over
and
those are the Americans.
Yeah.
Ok.
This is the fire legion. Nobody can touch his ears
for sure.
Hey, what kind of a country are you guys running around here every time?
My pal and I turn our back, somebody throws a knife at us. I may hear you but
I put that down.
Listen, that is a matter for the local G noe,
he
is headquarters of the first but
it is not, this is the Foreign Legion. That's what he said. Now, listen, a
we're not a couple of American tourists can be pushed around.
Yes, we're here on business, big business. And what is the nature of your business?
Mhm.
I think we're out of business.
You're relieved. Corporal,
I'll handle this.
Well, gentlemen, uh, we're looking for a guy
where does the
Yaya tribe hang out?
Well, the last leg
report
there was somewhere in this area
and I doubt very much whether you'll be able to find them.
And why don't we, why don't we ask Sheik
Hamud
where his tribe is?
What do you know of Sheik
Hamud? What do I know of sheikh
today?
I outsmarted him in a deal that was very clever of you, but also very dangerous.
I'm afraid it won't be safe for you to be out in the streets.
Well, how, how are we gonna get out of here?
Why go
is the leader's duty to protect you?
So why not stay here until I make sure that everything's all right.
Are you sure we're not crowding you?
We take men in every day, but how are we going to get out to eat? We serve you food here.
Oh boy. Room and board. How much you charge? Nothing. Nothing.
Well, we sure appreciate it. Isn't there something we can do for you?
Well, just a little thing, a formality. We like to keep a list of our guests. Sure. You
mind signing your name while you're here. Smiley. Nice of you.
Thank you.
And you can be sure we'll be quiet if you know what I mean? No wild parties
that I'm sure of.
However,
there are a few little rules and regulations.
Raise your right hand. Boys,
your right hand. I'm left handed
your right hand.
Yes, sir.
Say
I do.
I do and you,
I do.
00,
what's the matter with you.
See
that
now that we're married, I do hope you make me happy.
I want a divorce, gentlemen. Yes, ma'am. What? Yes, sir. It's better.
Well, he's got to be one of the other.
Now, gentlemen,
if you'll step through that door, you'll be taken care of through that door.
Thank you.
I,
where we share it
every day
you just signed up for a five year stretch in the foreign Legion
Legion.
All
the legion.
Come
on,
hunches. Come on.
Come on. You.
Right.
You
so
sure.
And
mm
Yeah.
Yes.
You're a happy tummy.
Oh,
no.
Climb in.
I want to see how the recruits are doing. Remember? Come along.
I'm tired. Relax.
Hi. On your peak minute.
Hit the wire on the level.
All right. Lou follow me. Don't worry about a thing. Come on, Lee. OK.
Over this way.
Hey, Bo
Ma,
I
help you.
Come on.
What kept you,
you,
you call yourself a legionnaire.
You are a disgrace
to the sacred memories of the magnificent men of the legion who fought and died at bar
alms Meduna and
Raza. Not to mention Boca
modes, Maness
faiths.
You forgot to mention Azusa Anaheim and Cucamonga.
Don't know
if this pa
or
ma
I'll make a legionnaire of him one way or the other.
You're dismissed
queen
attention.
Yeah,
you can't talk that way to a wounded soldier. What do you mean wounded?
I just hurt my finger on a barb wire.
Blood before I'm through with you. You'll see blood.
You'll be surrounded by blood.
Your machine gun will rid of your enemies
until blood flows like water through a sieve.
Your sabers will hack and slash the human flesh
with your trench knives in the black of night,
you will creep upon a man and rip and rip until he falls apart.
And when you wade victoriously from the bloody of our enemies glory,
the gore of battle,
then he'll be a leg engineer.
I can't understand it.
First, the attack on the railroad company's construction camp at
Biskra
and now the massacre of 40 legionnaires at
goa
sheikh mood seems to know our every move. It's obvious, sir.
There must be a leak somewhere. Quite obvious, sergeant.
Thank you.
But how do we stop it
every day? Hamoud
becomes more and more daring. Who knows where he'll strike next?
Sergeant,
investigate that gunfire. Yes, sir.
On the alert
and
the enemy, the enemy is going to surround it. They'll kill all of us.
Stop hiring.
We surrender,
stop firing
back.
We surrender the
wearing.
That's
me.
Look, we're outnumbered. Why don't you surrender?
No.
Why did you shut that gun off? I didn't know how, I didn't know how,
how did this happen? I told him to assemble the gun. Let me tell you something.
That's a dangerous thing to have in the army. Somebody could be killed.
Throw these men at the guard house,
sergeant,
you ought to bring Hotchkiss and Jones to the commandant immediately
take them away.
This will be a pleasure
in here. Stop that Moko Mao.
Wait,
you're the men you sent for.
You are
Hotchkiss and Jones confidentially. You can call us. But
lo
that's,
that's low
sergeant.
We will
come
up,
give these men a pass to go to town tonight. A pass.
But I thought that those are orders from a source. I cannot question.
Yes, sir.
You may be at 82 Roy Lafayette at eight o'clock
us,
we
all the three of us are gone. No, just you two us.
We. Yes, that's what I said. The three of us. Why don't you make us your mind?
Are you going or aren't you going? Get out, get out of here, take them out of here,
get up
just so you won't forget the address.
I'm writing it down the pass
282
with Lafayette.
That
was 82
282.
The commandant says 82.
Here it is 282.
I don't like the looks of this thing.
You shoot up the post kn
they give us a pass. Why? I don't know there's something wrong.
We better case this place but,
but there's something very important. I want to tell you what's that?
I'm going home.
Did you?
How are you
going?
Come on,
shut up.
It is five past eight.
We will not be able to dispose of the Americans if they do not appear
I've thought of that.
If they are not here by 10 past eight,
I have ordered the military police to classify them as deserters
and shoot them at sight.
Desert us.
That means us.
We, we,
right
lou,
we're in trouble.
Where do we go from here? Let's go to the dock, get a boat and go home.
Hey,
they're MP S and they're looking for us and if
they find us they'll shoes on sight as desert us.
Well, look, we can't make a move unless the coast is clear.
I'll check up. You, stay right here. Don't move.
We were read column. I spotted one of them. I saw
them. That's two of them.
I'm gonna find out how many there are.
I
just saw one. I saw one too. We're surrounded.
We're not gonna stand here and get mad without putting up a fight. Uh,
be right here.
You
always, I'm going around this building and flush them out.
If I happen to chase one around this way,
bang em
right over the head.
You
hit
him,
hit him,
hit him.
What you,
now, what's the matter? Why didn't you hit the guy? I chased, I was too busy.
Somebody was chasing me. Well, you listen to me. You stay right here.
I'm gonna backtrack
and I'll get him and don't forget to use that club to hear.
Stay right there.
Backtrack.
I'll backtrack too.
Thank
you.
But the,
what's the matter? One of them got me that's ok. I got one of them. Hey,
we're gonna fool
you. Go ahead as a decoy.
Then when they sneak up behind you, I'll sneak up behind them
and
plunk.
Simple.
I have to be to do that. Go ahead. Go ahead.
Hello.
Hello. Hello?
Oh, hey, Lou. Boy, did I get him?
He tapped me on the shoulder and just as I, I,

You know, I wouldn't do that to you. Take my club and hit me right on the head with it.
Go on,

Why not? I want to use my own.
Come on, mate.
Uh I see you.
Come on,

Oh no, not again.
I've been looking all over for you.

You can't, I need you.

Axman.
Yes, Axman.
We saw him in a room with five Arab hoodlums,
Shika
Mods Men.
Axeman.
I'll illiterate her,
but I cannot take your word for it. I must have evidence.
If you will help me find it,
I will see that you get out of the
leisure. It, it
hurry then search his quarters before Axeman returns to the post.
We, that means the two of us. We.
Yes.
Mhm.
Come,
Don't make no
noise.
All right,
goodness,
the shutters are all closed. Will I find the light switch?
Hey,
I feel a day of opening in the wall. You got your hand in my mouth. Get out of my
door, don't
I?
You get to bed,
I'll get the dress. Ok?
Don't make a noise.
What
good.
What are you doing? You told me to get to bed.
Look, when I say get to bed, I don't mean get to bed. What do you mean?
I mean get to bed when I say you're insane. I don't mean you're insane.
No, you're cuckoos. When you listen to,
I'll take the bed,
you take the bureau.
Wait a minute. Are you positive? Positive? You want me to take the bureau?
Take the bureau, take the bureau
to

I don't mean take the bureau,
search it,

Tibet,
what are we looking for? Something to tie up Axman with the Arabs.
And if we find it
we've got em trapped, drag it.
Yes. Trapped, trapped.
Oh. Can't you keep out of trouble
now? Listen, I, what's wrong now?
Will you keep on stretching
and keep out of trouble?
Hey,
I think I found something.
How do you know
this paper with the Arabic writing on it? What more evidence do we need? None at all?
Let's get out of here. Wait
a
minute.
H,
hey, Bud,
quiet. I've got to decipher this thing.
Oh, I'd like to see the expression on Axman's face.
When he finds out that this is gone. You can,
you can.
If he knew we had this, he'd kill both of us. Don't give him any ids.
Then all we have to do is turn it over to the girl. This is our ticket out of the legion.
Then we walk up the Axman
and snap our fingers in his face just like that.
Who told you to search my quarters?
Who is this girl?
Answer me?
Answer me,
sergeant.
We just received a radio message
for
power is being besieged by Arabs.
Reinforcements will leave immediately
under Captain Shab
assembly patrol. Yes, sir.
Thank you.
I beg your pardon, sir.
Yes, we have some very important information for the commandant. Yes, sir.
Information will put someone behind the firing lines.
Why is it
take a gander at this, please.
Three shirts, two drawers, four socks.
This is an Arab laundry ticket idiot
about face
you to get your equipment.
You're marching with a patrol.
This order into the desert is most convenient. Do you mind if I say one word? No,
2020 12,
2020 13, 2000. 214. I don't get it.
They march us all day and at night we've got to
guard the supplies and take care of those smelly camels.
I got him to this army life back in 1945
45 46 1947 1948. My father, he was hip to it in 1917,
1917, 1918, 1920 21. The guy was contented. He was happy.
He was a rough rider in 98
98 99 100.
My grandfather,
he was a drummer boy in 61. 61 62 63 64. Even if that girl did get our message,
our
chances of getting out of here would be 100 and 1, 101
102 103 104 max five as a wise guy
rings us into this outfit for five years. 556789, 10. I'll find a way out.
I'm a pretty smart cookie too.
23456. What are you doing? 78.
The captain told me to check the ammunition that doesn't mean upon each bullet.
Put it back,
put it back.
You see, you've scared the camels.
Come on. We've got to quiet them down
seven
perhaps.
Hey,
one of the camels are gone.
I wonder which one it is. I think it's the one with the humps.
It must have been Sally. She was the sweetest. One of the two.
Well, we've got to look for it. I ain't going out in that dark desert tonight.
What was that?
It ain't no camel.
Oh, it's just some kind of an animal.
We'll have to go out and look for Sally. Come on. Not me.
I'm gonna stay right on the spot. Nothing's gonna move me. All right.
All of them,
all of them good.
I'll go back to headquarters and report the casualties
and tell them how lucky I was.
Yes. How lucky you were.
Uh,
we'll ever find her.
Maybe she went home to her mother. What do you mean?
I mean, after all dogs go home to her mother and cats go home to their mother
and when I'm a bad boy, I go home to my mother. That's right.
Why couldn't Camels do the same thing? I think so. Hey,
we'll follow her trail right into Algiers. Hey, that's a good idea.
And then when we get to Algiers, we get down to the dock, we take a boat and we go home.
Good idea. And I'll stay on your toes.
Come on. Let's follow the Camel. TRS. Watch out.
But,
but,
but
what,
I can't see anything.
No, there's no need of kidding ourselves. We're lost.
If we don't find water soon,
regardless,
I'm not going to make myself believe that people die of thirst and it doesn't,
by not finding any water,
I'm not going to make myself believe it.
I won't believe it.
I believe it.
But this is not going to happen to me.
I'm gonna get some water
someplace on this desert. There must be a place to get water, water.
Yeah.
You,
how will you
be?
Pay?
That's go and ask me to have a drink of water
easy pal.
It's only a mirage. Don't crack up. We'll find our way out of here and find a patrol.
Look,
how long can a man go without water?
I
what
water?
Look, we're saved.
Hurry up.
You hold
the cup.
OK? Water
stand
insane.
San
Yeah.
F
hm.
Lou
Lou, you've gotta pull yourself together. Give me a towel.
Lou men go crazy on the desert following Mirages. Oh Yeah.
But if you don't chase Mirages, how do you know the Mirages? I mean you can't
fuck.
Mhm
That
what
I know.
Don't tell me.
I just saw a Mirage.
I
just saw a double chocolate Mirage. I
don't feel bad lo
it could happen to anybody. It could even happen to me. Yeah. Come on
the
water,
man.
Get your New York
Dre
right here. X
me, X me. Read all about the water.
Shorty
X
me. Get your
daily record
right here.
X
me.
Hey boy,
what are you doing way out here?
Can I help it if they gave me a bad corner
XX?
Take
a paper.
I've just seen another one.
But,
but are you sure you haven't seen any of them? No,
no.
But I told you
it could happen to me too.
I
look
so.
No,
it happened.
I
want it.
You're making a fool out of yourself. There's nothing there but sand.
Oh,
nice. Cool water.
Come on in,
into what
blood
will you come out and shake the sand out of your ears.
Blue. Come on in. It's nice and cool. Look on water. Loo.
Nice, cool water.
Look, but
go like that with your hand. Go ahead. Look, look,
look
just,
he don't know that sand.
You poor boy, you're cracking up
now. But come out.
Let me help you.
That was wonderful. Wonderful. It really was sure. But what,
what's that saying? Naturally?
Now,
what's that?
What?
Hey, look,
when you get to play,
I'll be asleep behind the rock.
Go ahead. Have a good time.
It's,
it's,
this is me. Water.
Come, come, Celine.
You swallow water like a thirsty camel. I am not drinking.
I lost my false
teeth
and we will lose our heads if we allow in legionnaires to slip through.
But did you hear somebody talking?
Oh, nonsense.
First, you're seeing things and then you're hearing things. Relax.
At least we won't die of thirst. I'm slowly starving to death.
Starving to death.
That's just in your mind. It's imagination.
You can imagine. You're starving to death. You can imagine.
You're eating a delicious dinner.
Well, you're having,
you're having soup. A
great big juicy steak. I like spaghetti and meatballs. All right.
So you've got spaghetti and meatballs, mashed potatoes, peas, pies,
chicken,
chicken, chicken too.
Oh, boy.
Uh,
what are you doing?
Chicken?
Put that down. Where are you going? I'm gonna get some water and wash it down.
Yeah.
But,
but yes, yes. Yes.
Now what? Somebody was here?
Bread, bread. Now we can have bread and water. Oh, no,
there's a lot of fish in there. Boy,
we're going to have a nice fish dinner. Oh, come on, boy. Oh boy. Oh boy.
Oh, hey, you like fish, don't you? I love fish, buddy. Boy, I love fish. Boy.
Are we gonna have a feast?
Uh,
get a nice big fish now and
a bill of fire.
Cook it to a nice golden brown.
Hey,
I got 10, I got
one.
Look at that, baby.
Oh, still there. OK. There we are we gonna eat.
Hey, uh, wash them off and plate them up.
I got to
where we
get the sun.
You
take this little
solo.
Oh, you,
when
I
got another one?
Hey, you boy,
treasure
us.
That's the stuff. Now we're getting places.
Excuse me,
lo lo lo stop splashing the water. You'll frighten the fish away.
Hey,
hey,
I got another one.
Hey, you boy.
What? If he's cleaner,
what do you mean?
Come in
here
for you?
What matter?
Hm.
Right.
Hey,
where are the fish? I caught?
I know I got them out of there. But where are they now? Did you eat them?
Where are they?
Hey, don't tell me you threw him back in. Oh, no, he got him. Who got him
some fish that went the painless palma.
What are you talking about? I'll show you,
Hey. Hey.
Mm
Will you come on?
Yeah.
Why don't you come up and fight? What do you tease me like that for
with a rock?
Hit him
with a rock. Give me a rock.
Help me with this big rock on. I
sitting on
it.
What do you want me to do?
Hey.
Oh,
don't you wish this was a mirage?
So
you
OK.
Well, prisoners, master
down on your knees, your dogs.
Oh, yes.
The Americans.
I remember you from the slave mod.
It's a good thing you didn't kill him.
He likes us
because now I shall have the pleasure of killing you myself
and please be assured
I shall conceive an extremely painful death for both of you.
Take them away.
Hodgkiss Jones,
Nicole. So you finally got him.
You came to get us out.
No,
I got myself in. What's the meaning of this?
I thought these men were dead. They will be shortly
take these swine away
and see that nothing happens to them until they're supposed to.
What are you doing here? Things are happening.
I had to get her out of Algier.
Very thoughtful of you to bring her to me. She's French intelligence.
She's already turned in Joseph. How much she knows about us? I don't know yet.
Please me to find out. Is
she alive in what otherwise might have been a very dull evening.
I'm afraid this evening you'll be busy with other things.
A company of legionnaires is on the master fort apart.
If you expect to hold the fort, you better have your men there.
I made other arrangements before we left. We mine the fort.
My men are waiting impatiently at a
hidden detonator for the reinforcements to arrive.
Hamud.
You are a fool. Axmann is using you.
There is no way that you can win.
You just be pretty and keep quiet
and don't try to do anything about what you just heard.
You're much too beautiful to die.
Come with me, I'll see that you're dressed in something more attractive.
This is a terrible way to die.
Mr Can I tell you something? No,
you'll be sorry if you don't listen.
No,
this may mean your life. No.
All I'm trying to tell you is that I am not tied to the post.
What is he talking about?
How do I know I speak every language but Greek,
but he's talking Arabic. It's still Greek to me.
What was that?
They're off at San Anita
nonsense. Hot or cold. We're left at the post.
Ok.
A reception committee for your American friends.
That one the tallest is my cousin Abdullah,
for whom they've been looking.
What a time for them to find him.
Sat.
A
man
had
al,
oh, gee, they're nice people. Just, what did you tell them?
I said that Hamid's wrestlers will now tear you apart
with their bare hands. You got something there?
Ok.
Oh, well, at least we've all got to die sometime.
You've got nothing to worry about though. You've lived a good clean life. Yeah.
But I'd like to live a little longer so I could dirty it up a little bit.
Abdul Abdullah,
boy. Are we glad to see you? Yeah. Listen,
we'll forget about the money you owe us if you tell him who not to have his restless,
tear us apart.
Fine. It'll be me. Who will tear you apart?
Don't worry. I won't hurt you.
But you,
you settled.
That was for the benefit of my dirty cousin. But we got to make the act look good. Hey,
how
about that Pennison routine? Ok. Ok.
What
thanks
we gotta say. But I want to say both of you. Hey, how about the personal team?
You know where you go? Nuts. Yeah. OK. Give me the wisdom. Ok.
O
I'm blinded. I can't see.
No, you stupid arch, you've got the wrong one.
You listen to me,
but
Abdullah's on our side. He was doing a Boston routine. Well, let's get out of it.
Come on,
you guys gonna help me get back to Brooklyn. We gonna help you.
Yeah, I stay here after mayor the sheikh's daughter. And is she a dog? Take a look.
What do you think?
I think she's either a very ugly girl or a very pretty monster.
Hey, we gotta help out
quick. Give me the best. Ok.
Oh, you did it again. I'm blinded. I can't see
Abdullah.
Shut
up.
You've got the wrong one again.
Abdul is helping us. Abdul's trying to kill us. Yes.
But he's still helping us selfish.
Sorry.
And somebody stopped them.
That
don't
talk to
your
night.
I,
in reception you arranged for the Americans.
This is our chance.
Come on.
What did you do there?
All I did was eat.
He said all you did was
Yeah.
No.
Oh,
hey, buddy, you're off a week.
You ought to be like me eat some of these Arabian apples.
Apple.
That's an onion.
You fools, castles, legionnaires
this time they shan't escape me. I'll kill them both with my bare hands.
I told you not to trust Abdullah.
I'll slit his throat.
Yeah.
And now

and do not go in there. That is his bath.
I'll keep my eyes closed.
We,
what are you? What are you trying to do? Get us killed.
Hurry. We must warn the legion that the fort is not.
Where do we go? I don't care where you go, but get going
again.
You're in reversion.
Pull the wheel, pull the wheel.
Come on. Excuse me.
Made it.
Yeah,
we are lucky. The legion has not reached the fort yet.
I think we lost the arrow.
We found him again.
Thank you.
Stop.
They're our own men.
That is the men of the detonator. They must think we're Arabs.
This is our chance to save the
f

Lafayette. Here we come,

Oh no, don't bother me. If you realize what I've done.
I kill the best little pal I've ever had. He was such a sweet little guy.
Look at he's gone.
I'll never be able to see him again if he was

Go away.
