[UPBEAT FRENCH SONG PLAYING.]
Does that work?
LENNY :
[LAUGHS.]
Nothing works.
DAVID :
So why?
LENNY :
Got to try something,
right? I'm-I'm Lenny.
DAVID :
She of The Great Escape.
LENNY :
Says every girl I ever banged.
[LENNY LAUGHS.]

[SNIFFING.]
:
Glue?

We never Talk?

How's how's the girlfriend?
Sydney, right? Syd?
Or the the old bat and
the and the black guy.
How's — Is he —
He's looking pretty fit.
Farouk?
LENNY
[FRENCH SONG CONTINUES.]
Dude you got to help me.
I'm dying out here.
I'm - I'm like a pet.
Or a house plant.
I pulled out all
my hair before.
Yesterday.
But it all came back.
Maybe that was
A Dream, then…
Can you talk to him? Yeah?
El Rey? The King?
Just get me out of here.
DAVID :
Farouk?
LENNY :
[WHISPERS.]
Please.
Please.
Put me out of
my misery.
Please.
FAROUK:
You found him.
Our monk.
DAVID:
In with The Sick.
There was a handprint
on the glass.
He's loose now inside Division 3,
but I can't his mind.
The Monks of the Mi-Go Order.
Impenetrable.
Unless you know The Secret.
[SNIFFS.]
When I find him and he tells you where your body
is what are you gonna do with it?
Live in it, my dear.
South of France.
Women.
Money.
Power.
And that's it? No super-villain- destroy-the-world bullshit? [FAROUK CHUCKLES SOFTLY.]
This word "villain" Do you know where it comes from? C'est francais.
It means, originally, "one who lives in a village.
" A peasant.
Do I seem like a peasant to you? - You know what I mean.
- No.
This is important.
Language.
The meaning of things.
You called me a villain.
Me, the king.
[SPEAKING PERSIAN.]
For decades I rule over my country.
I'm a good king.
Strong but just.
My people, they prosper.
And then your father a white man, which is You tell me, important? He comes.
Does he speak our language? Does he know our customs? And he decides what? That my people should have better.
That he knows better.
Who is he to make such choices? [SETS GLASS DOWN.]
You fed off me when I was a baby.
And I'm supposed to feel, what, sorry for you? Is it such a terrible thing to feel sorrow for your enemy? What is he, except a brother with another name? We're not brothers.
[POPS.]
[WATER BURBLING.]
You are still young.
You think justice is a glass jar.
You fill it with your hurt, your hate.
Don't you think I have my own jar? I'm a refugee.
Do you know the meaning of that word? Refugee.
Driven from my home, in exile.
Prisoner in another man's body.
Nobody put you in my head.
Or Oliver's.
You made a choice.
[CHUCKLES.]
: Of course.
If the choice is between death or life I choose life.
Listen, I'll call you when I have the monk somewhere safe.
He takes us to your body, and then you are gone.
Gone.
No one ever hears your name again.
Interesting, don't you think? You're doing this for a woman you love who lives in a future you're going to destroy if you help me.
- What do you mean? - The timeline.
She lives in a future you are trying to change, and when you do, she will cease to exist.
So really you are helping her to commit suicide.
Oh, and be careful with The Monk.
He is very [SPEAKS GERMAN.]Contagious.
See, this, uh [TEETH CHATTERING.] Madness.
They think it's me, that
I'm infecting people.
But it's him.
He's toxic.
He is like Typhoid Mary.
But where he goes, I follow.
So your friends think
that I am the Mary.
Not so smart, your friends.
DAVID :
I got to [GASPING BREATHS.]
