13. Hey!

14. Alright now, all you separate!

15. Separate! Separate!

16. You're driving me to my grave, ya pack of jackals.

17. Watch yourself, Sergeant Krupke,

18. you're gonna inflame your asthma,

19. shouting like that.

20. Why don't you leave the Puerto Ricans alone, Riff?

21. Christ almighty. And you lot,

22. you're in New York now.

23. You got a problem, you call the cops.

24. Youse can't play at being cops yourselves.

25. Pero we call the cops, you show up and arrest us!

26. You're never around when these hijueputas

27. mess up our stores and our streets.

28. See, I get confused when you say "our streets,"

29. seeing how these streets are ours by right

30. - of being born here, amigo. - The Jets!

31. How many times do I gotta tell you, Bernardo?

32. I don't speak spic.

33. Hey, hey!

34. That's enough! That's enough!

35. Come on! Break it up!

36. Jesus wept, Baby John.

37. Who did that to your ear?

38. Which one of them nailed you?

39. Who cracked your head open, hombre?

40. In English.

41. Same guy who nailed your ear, maybe?

42. Maybe. I don't remember.

43. I realise if any of you helps me out,

44. you might spoil your chance to murder each other

45. over control of this earthly paradise.

46. The Jets control it and you know it.

47. Uh-huh, yeah,

48. but, golly gee, Balkan, not according

49. to the New York City Committee for Slum Clearance,

50. which has decided to pull this whole hellmouth

51. down to the bedrock,

52. and you're in the way.

53. Aah!

54. Nice reflexes, muchacho.

55. So, any day now,

56. all of you are gonna be evicted.

57. You'll have to "vamoose," as we say in Spanish.

58. We're not relocating.

59. We have rights.

60. Rights, huh? Where are they?

61. You back down, Bernardo. Don't be stupid.

62. Some night, muchacho,

63. maybe you'll get to see me fight.

64. 'Course, you'll have to leave your gun at home, Lieutenant.

65. Evict yourself off my crime scene, Bernardo.

66. Vamos.

67. Chick, chick, chick.

68. Chickie, chickie, chickie.

69. A boxer and a singer.

70. Get a load of this guy.

71. You want me to book the whole bunch of you?

72. Keep up the serenade and see what…

73. ¡Viva Puerto Rico libre!

74. I am ordering you clowns to disperse!

75. Now!

76. We're outnumbered, boys.

77. Thousands more are on their way,

78. and once they're here,

79. they pop out kids like crazy. Am I right?

80. Tell me which one of them nailed Baby John's ear

81. and I'll put him out of circulation.

82. Work with me, fellas.

83. Or they're gonna drive you off your turf.

84. You said it was the Slum Clearance Committee

85. that was driving us off,

86. now it's the PRs.

87. You gotta get your story straight, Lieutenant Schrank.

88. We're very impressionable.

89. Most of the white guys who grew up in this slum

90. climbed their way out of it.

91. Irish, Italian, Jews.

92. Nowadays, their descendants live in nice houses

93. and drive nice cars

94. and date nice girls you'd want to marry.

95. Your dads or your granddads stayed put,

96. drinking and knocking up some local piece

97. who gave birth to you.

98. The last of the can't-make-it Caucasians.

99. What's a gang without its terrain, its turf?

100. You're a month or two away from finding out,

101. one step ahead of the wrecking ball.

102. And in this uncertain world,

103. the only thing you can count on is me.

104. I'm here to keep the civil peace

105. until the last building falls.

106. And if you boys make trouble

107. on my turf, Riff, hand to heart,

108. you're headed to an upstate prison cell

109. for a very long time.

110. By the time you get out,

111. this will be a shiny new neighbourhood of rich people

112. in beautiful apartments

113. with Puerto Rican doormen to chase trash like you away.

114. Wait!

115. I got a question for you, Lieutenant.

116. How tall did you used to be before you,

117. you know, "schrank"?

118. Come on, Sergeant, ride with me.

119. Long as I know you, Riff,

120. you ain't had the sense, God gave a pigeon.

121. Come here, let's see what he done.

122. Come on.

123. Well, that's gonna scar, buddy boy.

124. - You think so? - Frankenstein time.

125. They can't make us up and leave.

126. We're here, ain't we?

127. American citizens, which them spics ain't!

128. Them they can chase off, not us.

129. Puerto Ricans are Americans,

130. - you ignoramus. - Ah, go eat a green banana!

131. Puerto Rico's like a state, ain't it? So, Deez is right…

132. No, it's something else.

133. There are only 48 states,

134. - ya dead battery. - What do you know?

135. Whatever they are,

136. citizens or who gives a fart, what we know is…

137. They ain't us.

138. So, spill it, Krazy Kat, what are you thinking?

139. I'm thinking it's past time for a rumble.

140. For a all-in, all-out, once-and-for-all,

141. winner-takes-all, high-noon-shootout-

142. at-the-O.K. Corral rumble!

143. Wild blue yonder! About time!

144. We do 'em like we done the Egyptian Kings.

145. - And the Emeralds. - And the Bishops.

146. Alright, so Tony and me will sit down with…

147. - Tony? - Yeah, Tony.

148. What's this got to do with him?

149. He ain't stood with us once since he got out.

150. He's on parole. He's gotta be careful, is all.

151. He cannot be running around…

152. Tony's done with the Jets, Riff.

153. He ain't done with the Jets. Like that's even a thing!

154. You cannot be done with this family.

155. Maybe it wasn't a thing before, but now, Riff?

156. The Lieutenant's right.

157. What are the Jets if we got no territory?

158. - That's right! - Yeah.

159. Schrank doesn't know his ass from his elbow.

160. Look,

161. Tony and me started the Jets

162. cause none of us would even be here

163. if it wasn't for all of us.

164. And all you know it.

165. When you're a Jet You're a Jet all the way

166. From your first cigarette To your last dyin' day

170. You're never disconnected

171. You're home with your own

172. When company's expected

176. When you're a Jet

177. You stay a

178. Jet

179. So, meet Tony and me at the Dog Days Dance

180. at the gym tonight.

181. We can't rumble at the gym, it'll be lousy with cops!

182. And maybe we've had enough trouble

183. with the Puerto Ricans for one day?

184. Relax. It's a social mixer.

185. So we'll mix until the time's right

186. to fix the rumble for tomorrow night.

232. Because it's a rumble!

233. We need you if we're going to war.

234. You can't refuse us now. And because I know you.

235. Or I thought I did,

236. before you got all unlike yourself,

237. before you went upstate.

238. Tony?

239. I'm coming!

240. It's like you're still in prison,

241. and the old witch is the warden.

242. She gave me a job and a place to stay.

243. She's always been there for me, like nobody else.

244. - Oh, nobody, huh? Thanks, pal. - So don't call her…

245. Thanks a big fat lot. Yeah.

246. You know I didn't mean you wasn't there.

247. You was always there.

248. - Womb to tomb. - Sperm to worm.

249. So, come with me to the dance, huh?

250. Come on.

251. Is it Graziella? That what's eatin' you?

252. No, it ain't Grazie.

253. She said that you and she was done.

254. It's good that you're keeping her company.

255. Even before you got locked up, you know?

256. It's cool. Don't get all the way you get.

257. Grazie's a great girl, and the Jets are the greatest.

258. And you, you're like, you know, blood to me.

259. But I'm scared of myself, Riff.

260. What I done to that kid. What I almost done.

261. You gotta get over that.

262. What is the point in beating yourself up?

263. I wanna be unlike how I was.

264. Cause I was disappearing down a sewer

265. and taking you and everything with me.

266. - Tony, you coming? - Yeah, he heard ya!

267. I had time. Lots of it.

268. Locked up like that,

269. and for the first time ever, I took a look inside,

270. and that was rough, doing that,

271. but I… I gotta stay with myself.

272. You know what I mean? Maybe stay…

273. by myself, just for…

274. Yeah, you know what?

275. You're just too deep for me, kid.

276. You know, I don't know who I am.

277. And who cares who I am?

278. Nobody, including me.

279. I know that this dust

280. that's covering everything right now,

281. that's the four-story buildings that was standing here

282. when you went upstate a year ago.

283. You know, I wake up to everything I know

284. either getting sold or wrecked,

285. or being taken over by people that I don't like.

286. And they don't like me.

287. And you know what's left out of all that?

288. The Jets.

289. My guys. My guys, who are just like me.

290. Who are just like you.

291. I can't go to the dance, Riff!

292. My parole officer said no going out!

293. I told you I don't want you in my store.

294. I'm a paying customer.

295. You've been stealing from me since you were six.

296. Now, get out. I mean it.

297. And leave Tony alone.

298. He is not allowed to associate with criminals.

299. Look, don't fall off that ladder.

300. At your age, brittle bones. That's all I'm saying.

301. You'll pay for that candy.

302. Five cents. On the counter!

303. Stand me for a Milky Way, huh? Least you could do.

304. Womb to tomb

305. wasn't never a joke for me.

306. Don't be like that.

307. Just cause I can't go to a dance?

308. Tony, I don't tell you who to hang out with. But…

309. "But those boys are juvenile delinquent.

310. "They're no good for you. And you better watch out."

311. Hey.

312. "You make fun of the way I talk

313. "one more time, blondie…"

314. I'm gonna talk to Riff and tell him

315. that he can't just come in here and not pay.

316. Tony, wake up.

317. I know you love Riff, but he hates Puerto Ricans.

318. That is not you.

319. Riff don't hate you.

320. I married a gringo.

321. He thinks that makes me a gringa,

322. which it don't. And I ain't.

323. Well, it's guys like Riff and me,

324. when things ain't familiar,

325. we just got this instinct to, you know…

326. You…

327. even as an angry little boy, somehow there was this…

328. this promise that you couldn't keep hidden.

329. Not from you.

330. And sometimes, I see you smiling,

331. like you're waiting for the,

332. what do you call, Irish Sweepstakes,

333. instead of sweeping the floor like I pay you to do.

334. I sweep as good as you pay.

335. - Yeah? - Look it.

336. Ooh.

337. You see? Promise.

338. You bring dead floors back to life.

339. Keep looking for better, mi milagro.

340. Like you always done.

341. Could be?

342. Who knows?

343. There's something due any day I will know right away

344. Soon as it shows

345. - It may come cannonballing - Aah!

346. Down through the sky Gleam in its eye

347. Bright as a rose

348. Who knows?

349. It's only just out of reach Down the block, on a beach

350. Under a tree

351. I got a feeling there's a miracle due

352. Gonna come true

353. Coming to me

354. Could it be? Yes, it could

355. Something's coming Something good

356. If I can wait

357. Something's coming I don't know what it is

358. But it is gonna be great

359. With a click, with a shock

360. Phone'll jingle, door'll knock

361. Open the latch

362. Something's coming Don't know when

363. But it's soon Catch the moon

364. One-handed catch

374. Pull up a chair

375. The air is humming

383. Mamita.

384. Didn't you hear me…?

385. What are you doing? Ay, nena…

386. No, no, no, no.

387. It look like a shroud,

388. it's so big and so white.

389. It wouldn't look like a shroud if it was red.

390. Speak English.

391. In Gimbels, there are lots of dresses that fit me.

392. And you don't shop in Gimbels. You clean in Gimbels.

418. Ay, be nice. Chino is a very sweet boy.

419. You can't take that personally.

420. He's got to be like that.

421. It's how he got to be a great boxer.

422. Everyone's afraid of him.

423. Mm, but I'm not.

424. Anita, we're home.

425. Are you ready? Chino's here.

539. From down here, I wasn't sure.

540. Is that OK? That I'm not?

541. I don't know.

542. Since I…

779. In my dream, we had six kids.

780. Six kids? Marry a cat.

781. I've been asking you for five years.

782. You want to marry me, then leave the gringos alone.

783. I'm gonna make quick work of the Jets.

784. You sound like the funny papers.

785. "The Jets."

786. English. We gotta practice.

787. Anita María Teresa…

788. Josefina…

789. Good morning.

790. I'm right here.

791. Stay here and don't fight?

792. What fight?

793. Don't worry about that.

794. You don't have a fight till next week.

795. The match with that Thompson guy.

796. What was his name?

797. Your brother has something to say to you.

798. I apologise

799. for behaving last night like a…

800. Like a gangster.

801. It was embarrassing.

802. And he's apologising.

803. Perdón.

804. I'm a grown-up now, Bernardo.

805. I can dance with anyone I like.

806. As long as he's puertorriqueño.

807. But why? Tony's a nice boy.

808. Tony?

809. Tony. Who cares if he's a…?

810. I don't know what he is. A Yankee?

811. He's a Polack. That's what he is.

812. A big, dumb Polack.

813. "Polack," says the spic.

814. Now you sound like a real American.

815. I don't want you to marry a gringo.

816. Marry him?

817. I danced with him, Bernardo.

818. For a minute, until you…

819. You're crazy. I can't talk to you anymore.

820. I was OK on my own.

821. Just me and Papi for five years without you,

822. while you came here,

823. where you do everything you want.

824. You… You study, and you make money…

825. And he boxes.

826. Sí. And you have your boxing.

827. And he fights in the streets.

828. Don't fight with the Jets.

829. I want you to be happy.

830. Here, dead man, eat your eggs.

831. And everyone, speak English.

832. But I'm here, too.

833. And I… I want to make a life, a home.

834. Maybe go to City College

835. like Rosalía's cousin, Virginia.

836. I want to be happy here.

837. English.

838. Puerto Rico, sí.

839. That is what you think.

840. - I'm gonna think for myself. - You keep away from him.

841. As long as you're in my house…

842. This ain't your house.

843. She pays rent here same as me and you.

844. This is about family.

845. María…

846. Maybe Chino and your friends fall down at your feet,

847. and maybe you scare the Americanos

848. when you make fists and angry faces…

849. And I am not interested in what you have to say.

850. You want to know where my home is?

851. It's where I pay rent. Right here,

852. where I work my fingers raw,

853. mending pants and hemming neckties

854. so that I can earn enough money

855. to pay other girls to sew for me,

856. so that someday I can rent a shop of my own

857. in this great, big, beautiful Nueva York.

858. And if you think

859. that I'm going back home to Puerto Rico with six kids

860. that I put to bed hungry every night,

861. amor de mi vida, you are dreaming.

862. In Puerto Rico, our kids won't get fat

863. like the kids in New York.

864. Puerto Rico

867. Always the pineapples growing

868. Always the coffee blossoms blowing

871. And the people trying

872. I like the island Manhattan

873. I know you do!

875. And put that in

876. I like to be in America

877. OK by me in America

930. Ay, Tony, you don't have enough troubles?

931. I don't wanna jinx it,

932. but maybe I'm done with trouble.

933. You are never done with troubles. Nunca.

934. - Nunca. "Nunca" means "never"? - Uh-huh.

935. What's "forever"?

936. Like, "I wanna be with you forever."

937. You don't wanna start, maybe,

938. with "I'd like to take you out to coffee"?

939. No. Come on, tell me.

940. "I wanna take you to Chock Full o' Nuts

941. "for a cream cheese sandwich on a raisin bread"?

957. It's because of us they're gonna fight, verdad?

958. Well, get your brother to call it off.

959. Bernardo's too angry.

960. Well, Riff's angry, too, so…

961. Come on.

962. This place we're going, it's, uh, up past Harlem.

963. It's practically at the tip of the island.

964. My brother…

965. there's so much more against him than Riff.

966. He's angry because…

967. The whole world has been against Riff

968. since he was born.

969. Do you think it's easier for us?

970. Uh, well, I think you come from families, homes.

971. You and Bernardo, you have hope.

972. You think Riff has that?

973. Riff could have hope if he didn't try to take hope

974. from people he doesn't know.

975. Riff didn't start this, it was Bernardo.

976. He came after me.

977. Just cause I wanted to dance with you.

978. Tony, if someone gets hurt because of what we do…

979. What did we do to anyone?

980. We don't do anything wrong, liking each other,

981. - pero… - María.

982. I don't just like you.

983. We can't pretend what we do doesn't cause trouble.

984. I can't talk my guys outta making trouble.

985. Trouble's what they're made of.

986. All of you go suck a pickle.

987. You think we're going to jail?

988. They're fishing, is all. Asking questions.

989. Which we ain't answering.

990. So, you're gonna tell me

991. where and when the rumble's happening…

992. or I'm gonna send you straight to the Tombs.

993. I don't know where the rumble is.

994. I don't even know what a rumble is.

995. Uh, they don't tell me nothing.

996. They know I can't keep any secrets.

997. They tell you when to show up, right?

998. Nah, they don't.

999. I just hang around until somebody says "let's go."

1000. And then?

1001. I go.

1002. I can't go to jail, Deez.

1003. Dry up, weepy, or else go sit on the ladies' bench

1004. with the other dickless wonder.

1012. She ain't a Jet.

1013. - She ain't even a boy. - Pipe down, A-Rab.

1014. - She's a dumb girl. - I ain't a girl!

1018. you shrivel-dick dago pansy!

1048. I shouldn't throw the book at ya.

1049. Dear kindly Sergeant Krupke

1050. You gotta understand

1051. It's just our bringin' upke

1052. That gets us out of hand

1053. Our mothers all are junkies

1055. Golly Moses

1056. Naturally we're punks

1057. Gee, Officer Krupke

1075. Leapin' lizards That's why I'm so bad

1076. Right! Officer Krupke You're really a square

1077. This boy don't need a judge He needs a analyst's care

1078. It's just his neurosis That ought to be curbed

1079. He's psychologically disturbed

1080. I'm disturbed!

1081. We're disturbed We're disturbed

1082. We're the most disturbed

1083. Like we're psychologically disturbed

1108. and juvenile delinquency is a social disease.

1109. Ew, Diesel, you got a social disease?

1161. the edge of the world's tallest building.

1162. I stopped falling the second I saw you.

1163. I shouldn't have asked you to stop the fighting.

1705. Sí, lo sé.

1706. And no one will ever forgive him.

1707. Will you?

1708. You can't ever ask me that.

1709. Will you forgive me?

1710. Te quiero, mi niña, but he will have to go away.

1711. And you will have to go with him.

1712. It got so bad so fast.

1713. He was a hero.

1714. I know people say that about a lot of people…

1715. Bernardo was a fool.

1716. What did he die for?

1717. Murió luchando por su dignidad…

1718. and for pride, mi hermano, orgullo puertorriqueño!

1719. Bernardo, he died to show those gringos

1720. how tough Puerto Ricans are.

1721. And if they push us too far…

1722. If those nobodies can take your pride away from you,

1723. tú eres más estúpido que Bernardo.

1724. It's a big world.

1725. Bernardo let the gringos tell him there's only this barrio,

1726. these 20 bad blocks.

1727. Don't you do what Bernardo did.

1728. You kill a gringo, they kill you.

1729. Sooner or later, the gringos kill everything.

1730. Chino, Chino, Chino, por favor.

1731. Don't follow me.

1732. Bernardo was your husband?

1733. Yes.

1734. Oh. Close enough.

1735. Your brother was angry you danced with a white boy

1736. at the mixer last night.

1737. No. I don't think so.

1738. You don't think the boy you danced with was white?

1739. Or you don't think Bernardo was angry?

1740. I wouldn't dance with a white boy.

1741. Yeah?

1742. I heard you came with a date.

1743. Some, uh, Puerto Rican boy.

1744. Goes by the street name "Chino."

1745. Word is, Chino's got a gun.

1746. That's what the word is, anyway.

1747. He's armed…

1748. …and hunting for this white stranger

1749. who she danced with,

1750. who we think killed your boyfriend!

1751. Anything else you wanna add?

1752. Bernardo told me about you.

1753. I'm flattered.

1754. The way you talked to him.

1755. Chino is gentle.

1756. He doesn't have a gun.

1757. Apparently, now he does.

1758. I have a, uh…

1759. A headache?

1760. She has her monthly, you know?

1761. I get the picture.

1762. I need for this, uh, medicine.

1763. Anita, she can… she can go for me?

1764. Mamita…

1765. In English.

1766. Sí. Sí.

1767. English is hard to, uh…

1768. Yeah, I bet it is.

1769. She wants you to go to Doc's drugstore

1770. and ask Valentina for…

1771. Hot tea is how my wife handles it.

1772. What did I say?

1773. Tell Valentina,

1774. I hope her cousin arrived safe from Santurce.

1775. And I'm sorry I can't be there to meet him like I promised.

1776. And all of a sudden, fluency.

1777. That means "I'll come as soon as I can."

1778. I can go?

1779. You're not his widow or anything.

1780. I'm done with you.

1781. Must be tough, losing a brother.

1782. So, let's start from the beginning.

1783. I wanna go see him.

1784. Talk to him.

1785. Tony just wants to be alone right now,

1786. he don't wanna see us.

1787. He ain't alone.

1788. The old lady's down there with him.

1789. Does he know we're up here? Me and Grazie?

1790. Does he know I'm here?

1791. Tony cared about me once.

1792. He don't wanna see you, Grazie.

1793. Go home.

1794. We left him lying there.

1795. In the salt shed.

1796. Ice…

1798. That's bothering me.

1799. Bothers me, too, Deez.

1800. He ain't there anymore.

1801. Jesus Christ.

1802. Where'd you come from?

1803. Down the chimney like Santy Claus.

1804. What's Tony gonna do?

1805. Go pop yourself, ya blister.

1806. How long's he figure on holing up down there?

1807. Till the heat dies down.

1812. He has Riff's gun.

1813. Oh, Jesus.

1814. And he's hunting for Tony.

1815. What are we gonna do?

1816. I don't know.

1817. Where you going?

1818. To keep track of Chino.

1828. Where is Valentina?

1829. You're Bernardo's girl.

1830. We saw you at the gym.

1831. Yeah, you wanna dance, Chiquita Banana?

1832. Dancing up a storm, you was, dipping them hips.

1833. Valentina!

1835. You come here speaking Spanish?

1836. I wasn't talking to you.

1837. No Spanish. Not with us. Not today.

1838. Let me pass.

1839. You heard her, boys.

1840. She wants to pass.

1841. Hmm, she's too dark to pass.

1842. Let her go.

1843. No one wants you here.

1844. Why don't you dance for us first?

1845. Dance with me, darling, like you danced at the gym.

1846. Numbers, stop it.

1868. - Mija, mija. - No!

1869. Traitor!

1870. Go back where you came from.

1871. You think I want to stay here?

1872. In this city full of ugly, little animals like you?

1873. No, gracias.

1874. Tell Tony…

1875. You tell that murderer…

1876. María ain't coming.

1877. Chino, he found out about them…

1878. Tony and María.

1879. He shot her.

1880. María is dead.

1881. You tell him that.

1882. I know you.

1883. I know all of your names.

1884. Since you was born.

1885. I watched you grow up.

1886. And you have grown into rapists.

1887. You dishonour yourselves.

1888. You dishonour your dead.

1889. What do we do now?

1890. We're done.

1891. What was that? What was that?

1892. You can never hear nothing from down here.

1893. - Was it the cops? - No, no, no.

1894. It was not police. No, it was… it was…

1895. Uh… Now it's alright.

1896. Tony, let's sit down for a second, huh?

1897. Listen. I got something to ask you.

1898. No, no, wait. I… I... I got something…

1899. It ain't easy to ask this, so let me just go, OK?

1900. Wait, wait. I have something to…

1901. You've given me so much already,

1902. but when she gets here,

1903. just…

1904. if you could help us out with the bus fare…

1905. - Tony… - I…

1906. I have no idea what it's gonna cost

1907. to get far enough away, out west someplace.

1908. 100 bucks for both of us.

1909. And we'll get work when we get there.

1910. We'll pay you back every cent.

1911. I know you ain't got money, so if it's too much to ask…

1912. No, no, no. It's not too much.

1913. It's not too much.

1914. We're gonna name all our girls Valentina.

1915. Cause if you hadn't cared

1916. for me like you always done,

1917. I wouldn't even be here alive, which…

1918. maybe I shouldn't be.

1919. Don't ever say that, Tony.

1920. Life matters even more than love.

1921. Mm. They're the same thing.

1922. Before María, maybe I would've said they ain't.

1923. But now, it's all life is.

1924. Even if it lasts no time at all.

1925. A month, a day even.

1926. That was Anita upstairs.

1927. What's wrong?

1928. Chino…

1929. What?

1930. Chino has a gun.

1931. He…

1932. Chino shot María.

1933. He killed her.

1934. She's… She's dead.

1935. Chino!

1936. Chino!

1938. Chino!

1939. I'm right here!

1940. Chino!

1941. Chino!

1942. Come on, man!

1943. I'm right here!

1944. I'm looking for you!

1945. Come on! Come on, with me!

1946. I know how to hide you.

1947. I got places to go they'll never look,

1948. just please!

1949. Don't leave me here!

1950. Get off of me!

1951. Chino, kill me!

1952. Kill me, too, Chino!

1953. Chino!

1954. No!

1955. Don't!

1956. Mi amor mio, mi corazon.

1957. María.

1958. María.

1959. Only you

1960. You're the only thing I'll see

1961. Forever

1962. In my eyes, in my words

1963. And in everything I do

1964. Nothing else but you

1965. Ever

1966. Give it to me.

1967. How do you fire it?

1968. Just pull this?

1969. How many bullets are left?

1970. Enough for you?

1971. And you?

1972. All of you!

1973. I can kill now because I hate now.

1974. I hate now.

1975. How many can I kill, Chino?

1976. And still have one bullet left for me!

1977. Te adoro, Anton.

1978. No, don't touch him!
