All language subtitles for Sadie (1980)_ENG_HI

[music]

♫ Sweet Sadie was a girl
who loved all the things

♫ in the world like a forest

♫ The flowers and the streams.

♫ She met a boy who fell in love

♫ They'd play on the beach
and then make love

♫ And later they laid there
and watched the stars shine above

♫ She heard him say

♫ Sweet Sadie, really love you baby

♫ Won't you be my lady forevermore

-Bella, woke up.
Bella, chop-chop.

Check in the house.
-Hey, no need to shout.

Bella come.

Fatimah, Malika, Queen and Jetty.
-What come?

Papa, Queen here.

-Why doesn't that tramp spring a leak?

-Hey, look here what I found up
on the beach, Doc.

Ain't that a pair to draw to.

-You better quit horsing around, boy.

That steamer you came in on is going
to bring the wrath of God down

on all us heathens.

At least cover her ass.

-Hey, Doc.

Quit grousing
and wrestle me up a vodka lime.

I just got off a hot boat.

-Well, look what the tide washed in.

You've got another R&R I see, huh?

How you ever found time to earn
those stripes is beyond me.

-Now, if you don't want
my business, I guess the Hilton.

-Perish the thought.

The trading post hasn't been
the same since your last holiday.

-Has Harry been around today?
-No.

It's too early.

He will be.

He's expecting a new girl off the boat.

-I beg your pardon, young man.

Oh, Sergeant.
-Corporal, ma'am.

-Corporal, would you please
help this fellow

with the rest of the senator's trunks?
They're still at the dock.

-Why, sure, ma'am.

Always glad to help
the United States government.

-You're Lady Senator Daniels?

Where he?

-The senator was met at the dock
by your district officer.

He requested an audience
with the Rajah and you know how it is.

-No. How it is?

-You go up and get the rooms ready.

I'll check everybody in.

-Your wife?

-Yes.
Her name is Fatimah.

Sit down.

I'll just get everybody settled in here.

I'm sorry, Mrs. Daniels.

We didn't realize your daughter was coming
and we're a little short on beds.

-Girl can stay with me.

Plenty of room.

-We'll have to ask your father.

I suppose it's all right.

-Okay.
Bella fix you up.

I bring big brother Kollie.

You like Kollie.

He swim real good.

Also, do nice dance.

Wiggles hips real good.

Here, you can sleep in bed.

I'll sleep on floor.
I'll send to Bella.

-Mrs. Senator Daniels' wife,
room all ready.

You can go up now.

-Honoré,

would you see to our other bags, please?
-It was Harry.

Yo, wait till you see the stash
that he's got on his arm?

Man, what a dish.
Yes, that's eating stuff, Jocko.

-Oh, hi, Jock.
Doc, how you doing, Bear?

Oh, allow me to present
a rare and precious jewel.

The one, the only, Sadie.

-Pleased to meet you, gents.

I just got in off the good ship Lollipop.

What a drag.

Heya, Sport, how come no one else had
to go through inspection?

-Probably because no one else has got
what you've got to inspect.

-Oh, Card.

You're a card, Doc.

Think I'm going to like you.

Hey, he's kinda cute.
How did I miss you on the boat, soldier?

-Me and Bear here got tied up down below
in a little poker game.

I didn't fare so badly.

Except that I missed meeting you, ma'am.

[music]

-Hey there, miss,

whatever your name is,
how about a dance?

With a pretty little figure like yours,
I'll bet you could shake one mean hoola.

-To whom do you think
you're addressing, young man?

Some cheap island tramp?
-Oh, I'm sorry, ma'am.

I was just asking your daughter
if she'd like to dance.

No offense.

[music]

[music continues]

[rain fall and thunder]

-Senator Daniels.

We've been expecting you.

I'm Dr. Crater.

-0h, you're the doctor
that owns this establishment?

Ah, general practitioner?

-Yes, MD in general practice.

I treat anything
and everything around here,

senator, and I also serve meals.

Right now your principal ailment,
looks like you've got an empty stomach.

Fatimah, chow for the senator.
-Oh, don't trouble yourself, Dr. Crater.

I eat very sparingly.

Perhaps just a light snack.

I had a very trying time
with your district officer.

-Well, you'll find
the natives on this island,

Senator, are a closely knit group.

They're very closed lipped with outsiders.

Especially about their own kind.

-I let him know in no uncertain terms

of the United State's
government's displeasure.

He's plainly an obstinate man.

Afraid to do anything
without the sultan's official sanction.

-You'll find that Rajah is
the real power behind the thrown here.

-I've prepared the rooms for us upstairs.

There is a shower,
such as it is, but we'll make do.

-Well, there's mosquito netting,
and the coils will help keep them away.

-The netting needs to be sown,
but I prefer not to work on the sabbath.

-Well, Senator, I understand
that your investigation

promises some shocking revelations,
from all that I've read.

-Yes. Well, most of our investigations

will have to remain under warps
until they're read

into the congressional record,
but I can tell you that

up to 80% of our GIs
in Vietnam are drug abusers,

and I'll stand on my senate
record it that isn't so.

-Well then what you're saying,
Senator, is that an army

doesn't travel on its stomach,
but on its pot.

[laughs]

-I'm afraid
it's no laughing matter, Dr. Crater.

-Fried rice, US senator, sir.

You like?
-Oh, yes.

It's very good.

Yes.

That's very good indeed.

-Oh, you're good, Jock.

-0h, Sadie, I bet you say
that to all of the boys.

-That's not funny.

What am I, some kind of freak?

I can feel, just like a real life
fucking virgin.

I'm human.

It doesn't matter how many I've had.
-Sadie, I didn't mean--

-I know exactly what you meant, soldier.

You can just get out.

You've had your piece of ass.

You can pay Harry.

I owe him passage from Saigon.
Now get out.

-Sargent Jock, Mokhtar sent message by me.

-Later, for Christ sake.

-It's bad, Jock.

Very bad. It's Harry.

Mokhtar say Harry leave.

-There seems to be a man
in that girl's room.

-Oh, yes.
I believe the Sargent's in there with her.

Why not?

-What did he mean, Harry leave?

-I'll explain later.
Sadie, I'm sorry.

My sense of humor just gets
twisted sometimes.

I'm afraid this is one of those times.

I'll make it up to you.
-Yeah, sure.

[thundering]

-Papa, Kollie go to Harry's room
and get suitcase, okay?

-Why?

Where's Harry going?

He just got here.

What's going on?

-Everyone's certainly
in a hurry around here,

I must say.
-I can't understand these people.

These islanders are all alike.

Perfectly satisfied
with their gods of wind and wave,

asking nothing from life except

to be able to sing, and dance, eat, sleep,
and make love.

Come over here and relax.

-For Christ sake,
Harry, you just got here.

-It's the Rajah.

When he says out,
Mokhtar echoes loud and clear.

-Sure, you know why, Doc.

It's that damn bible spotting do-gooder
over there.

Now he's putting pressure and Mokhtar
can't afford an investigation.

You know that.
-What about the girl?

-Don't worry, I'll take care of Sadie.

Besides, she can take
care of herself, believe me.

-Hey, not wait a minute, Jocko.

I brought her here for the Rajah.

He's already paid me to put her
in the Half Moon until I can send

for her later. I got her a job
in Jakarta dancing.

-Dancing? Come on, Harry,
who's going to believe that?

-No shit. I mean, when they kicked her out
of Saigon she decided she's had it.

She wanted to go straight,

so I got her a phony passport
as an exotic dancer.

-She's a good girl.
Too pretty for peace work.

-Oh that freak, Rajah.
Christ, Harry, how could you?

He'll have her mainlining
heroine inside of a week.

Like I said, I'll take
care of her until you can get her set up.

-All right, good, Jocko, good.

Look, I got to get the hell out of here
before Mokhtar comes after me.

-Mr. Harry, got suitcase ready.
I carry to boat.

Leave, hurry.
Chop,chop.

-Hey, lover boy.

What about little Sadie?
I hear you're cutting out.

Since when did you plan on splitting?

An hour ago you were going
to be here for a couple of weeks.

-Hey, now wait a minute, kid, now.

You got me all wrong.

Remember the job in Jakarta?

It's yours starting
the 15th of next month.

Now, I just got word that the next act
came down with malaria,

now you're in luck, kid.

I'm leaving right away
to work out the details.

With a good sales pitch I can get you
twice what we talked about.

-Oh, Harry, you old shit, you were going
to surprise me, weren't you?

Folks, this calls for a celebration.

Come on.
-Oh, no. I have no time now.

The boat's sailing any minute.

See? What I tell you? Listen,
I'll write you soon as I get there.

Have a drink on me.

I'll see you around, guys.

-Odd.

Hardly a trustworthy type.
Frankly, I didn't like that fellow.

-Oh, he probably didn't realize the boat
was leaving so soon after we got here.

-I dare say, there was
more to it than that.

I heard that young native boy
mentioned Mokhtar.

I'll like to ask him when next we meet.

-I'm sorry about all this hullabaloo,
Senator and ladies,

but one of our guests had to leave in a--
-Hi, Doc.

You going to join us for a little party?

We're celebrating
with the booze Harry left behind.

-Well, if I were Harry,
I'd call that a week.

No, Sadie, I'll take a rain check.

-Okay.
How about you, sport?

And ladies?

Jocko, bring me some glasses.

Come on, it'll do you good.

You know, this rain
can get really depressing

if you don't just relax once in a while.

-No, thank you, young lady.

I've never had
a drop of spirits in my life,

and I don't intend to start.

-How about you, lady?

-For heavens sake, young lady,
you're now showing your stupidity along

with your poor taste.
Do we look like bar room hassies?

-Mother, she's only trying to--

-I would hate to have to tell you
what you look like, lady,

but what I'm thinking of
has got real big ears.

-Come on, Sadie.
Come on.

-Come on, Bear, there's going
to be a little party in my room.

-All right.

-That girl.

-Well, looks like
the rain's getting worse.

-Yes, it does look that way.

Oh, the Queen's leaving.

You know, I almost hate to see her go.

For some of us it's their last link
to civilization.

-Chester, you've simply got
to do something about that awful girl.

I don't know if I can live under
the same roof for one more day,

much less two weeks
with a cheap tramp like that.

-Now, Betsy, we must've be too hasty.

After all, this is a public rest house,
and she has a right to a roof

over her head.
-Mrs. Daniels, I assure you,

Sadie is just a wild young thing.

She has no one, no roots,
and practically no money.

If I'm any judge of character,

she's just a frightened young lady.
-Yes, mother, forget it.

Let's get on another subject.
-Heaven, I knew I've heard that music,

and I now I know
where I've seen that girl.

Da Nang, of course.
-The red light district in Vietnam?

Good Lord, Chester, you mean
we're living under the same roof

with a prostitute?
-I think she's from Saigon.

At least Harry says.
Senator, I think you're wrong.

-No, I'm not wrong.

I was there.

Our whole team was there.

There were 30 of them,
all White girls, and now I remember

the name Harry, but I think
he called himself Larson, I believe.

We closed the entire operation down.

Lock, stock and barrel
and cancelled their passports,

and visas, whichever they held.

By heaven, it was our single biggest coup.

The Dragon House,
as it was called, Sin and Chain,

ceased to exist, but I see
it's cancer is still spreading.

-Chester, what are you going to do?

-I'll tell you one thing.

What I'm not going to do is allow
your house to be turned into a brothel.

Of that you can be assured.
-Now, just a moment, Senator.

Don't you think that's my choice to make?

-It's my duty, as a member
of the United States senate,

to protect our fighting men from sin,
crime and corruption wherever it may,

and whenever it may raise its ugly head.
-You call that an ugly head?

Sin and corruption?

Anyway, those two boys are old enough
to take care of themselves.

-They're still children of the Lord.

-Well, then it's time
the children grew up.

[laughter]

[laughing and chatting]

-Can you handle this?

-Yes, a little bit.

-Get out of here.
-Just a little.

-Hey, you dropped your shoes.
-Oh.

-Hey, what the hell are you doing?

-I must insist you maintain
a bit more decorum.

-Senator, I'm afraid I'm going
to have to ask you to leave.

-I don't believe I heard
the lady ask you in here, mister.

-Music of this short belongs
in a house of prostitution,

and I don't intend to allow
this type of deteriorating influence--

-Who the fuck do you think you are?
-Out of here, Daniels.

[crosstalk]
-Get out of here. Out right now.

[crosstalk]
-Get out.

-And stay out, that goes for you lady too.

-Sargent, I'll have your stripes
for this, or my name

isn't Chester A. Daniels.
If it takes me--

-Chester, please.

You can't argue with stupidity.

That's enough.
-Father, please, leave them.

-Sadie, that's enough.

And as for you, young lady.

I know what you are.

-Listen, if you, holier than thou,
half-assed

politicians would spent more time
thinking about how to keep the peace,

instead of how to keep us
from having a piece,

we all wouldn't be here
in the first place.

-You're treasonous, son.

You know I could put you away
for that disgusting display of temper?

-Oh, yeah?

Well, while you're at it,
why don't you remind

your politician friends
about how many of us spilled

their good red blood
all over this goddamn jungle,

instead of how many of us have to clap.

-Sargent, never in my 22 years
in the senate--

-Chester, please, come away.

-Bug out. This party's over.

-Young lady, I haven't even begun.

When I get through with you,
you'll be crawling on your belly

for my forgiveness,
and I'll have to cleanse you.

[spits]

-Cleanse that, and fuck off, Chester.

-Mrs. Daniels, I'm terribly sorry.

This isn't the senate chambers.

I tried to warn him.

We're a little lacking
in protocol around here.

[laughter]

-Come here, my palace guard.

[music]

[kissing]
[moaning]

[music]

Well, I ain't asking nobody for nothing

No,no,no

I can get it on my own

If you don't like the way I'm living,

just leave this long-haired
country boy alone

-Hey, Doc, could I see you for a minute?

-Sure, kid.

What's on your mind?

-You know, Doc,

you've been real swell to me
and I want you to know,

I really appreciate that.
-Forget it, Sadie.

I've been in a lot of tough
spots myself plenty of times,

and as for what happened
the other day, forget that too.

Senator Daniels was stupid,

but I'd cool it
a little bit if I were you.

-Yeah, I know.

That's what I want to talk about.

Here, will you sit down for a minute?

-Sure, Sadie.
I'm in no hurry to get back to work.

-I'm really worried.

-I know, but the worst he can do
is have you deported.

-No, Doc, not me so much, it's Jock.

-Oh?

-Yeah, he's the first guy
I ever really dug,

since Tommy, but maybe the only one
because Tommy and I were so young,

we were just kids.

[music]

If you don't like the way I'm living,

just leave
this long-haired country boy alone.

-You like that?
-That was nice.

I'd like to apologize
for slapping you the other day.

-Oh, shucks, miss, don't worry about that.

Hell, it ain't
the first time I've been slapped.

As a matter of fact, it's kind
of funny when I think about it.

-I didn't think it was funny at all,
Corporal.

-Well, you shouldn't of come busting
in there like that

and start ordering people around.

Hell, we get enough of that from our CO.
-Well, you've been drinking.

-Yeah, well, I had a few belts.
Why not?

I'm on R&R.

Supposed to be resting,

or relaxing, or having recreation,
and that means

fun and games now, right?

-I guess.

-Boo.
Let's have a drink.

-For Christ sake, Harry.

What are you doing here?

I thought you left on McQueen.

Where's Kollie?

I haven't seen him in a couple of days.

-Hi, pop. I help Harry hide.
Mokhtar, him bad.

-Mokhtar?
What happened?

-Well, he put a couple
of muscle boys on the Queen.

I saw them when I went aboard,

so I had Kollie bring the sand
behind the break water.

When we rounded the point I jump ship.

Kollie picked me up and we've been laying
low for the last couple of days.

I got thirsty.

-Did anybody see you?
-I don't know.

The muscle boys did,
that's for sure, but by now I know

they'll report it to Mokhtar,
but they won't know where I jumped ship.

-Dammit, Harry, this is serious.

Mokhtar is dangerous enough,

but I can handle him.

The Rajah, he's bad news.

Now, if he wants you--
-No,

he wants me, Doc. Look,
can I hide out here for a couple of days?

Kollie's got a friend with a ship.

I'll be gone soon.

-On one condition, Harry.

-What's that, Doc?
Anything.

-Take Sadie with you.

[thundering]
[rainfall]

[music]

-Look, large fresh lobster I pull
for Mr. United States Senator.

He come from District Office,
he walk in the rain, no umbrella.

[laughs]

-He was supposed to use that umbrella.
He's going to catch his death.

Chester, you're soaked.
Drenched clear through.

-My clear best, neither rain
or sleet, et cetera, et cetera.

Certainly you remember
the old days back home.

-Yes, but you're not
as young and strong as you were then,

and you haven't eaten all day.

-Not hungry.

Too many things to think about.

You know I can't eat
when there are problems unresolved.

-Yes, the girl was in here again today,
screaming infectives.

It was absolutely insulting,
almost physical.

-That's one of the unresolved problems
to which I'm referring.

Nevertheless, I was quite successful
in settling the sergeant's hat.

-A reprimand?
-Much better than that.

They've confined him
for an indefinite period.

At least Mokhtar promised
they'd keep him incarcerated

till we left Borneo.

-That should teach them all a lesson.

What about the girl?

She's the one that deserves
the severest punishment.

-I'm afraid I'm going to have to take
that matter into my own hands.

She must be given
every opportunity to repent.

She's just a poor lost soul
and needs help.

-Chester, after the awful thing she said.

-Nevertheless, I must speak
to her privately.

She has an immortal soul.
She must be saved.

[music]

-Miss Johnson?

-Yes, what do you want?

-I have something for you.

-That's heavy.

You have something for me?

-Yes, the most important gift
you'll ever be offered.

-Well, if it's worth more than $20
and it doesn't bite,

you've got yourself a deal.

-The gift I offer has no price.

It's more valuable than life itself.

May I come in?

-Yes, I guess so.

The maid's off today.
Excuse the mess.

I'm going now, so let's make it quick.

-Sit down, Miss Johnson.

I want to help you.

You've had a very trying time.

I can see that.

-Look, Mr. Daniels,

I'm a big girl now,
and I can take care of myself.

I appreciate your offer to help,
especially after what happened

the other day.
I'm okay, really.

I won't be bothering your wife anymore.

Hell, I know I'm not her kind.

More like oil and water.

I'm glad you're not mad at me.

I just really want
to be friends with everyone.

Sometimes, like a clumsy bear,
I blow it trying.

You know, when you're alone,

sometimes you get desperate for love.

-That's just what I'm offering you,
Miss Johnson.

The gift of love and infinite mercy.

Those who are offered
the keys of salvation and fail to open

the door are destroyed by their own hands.

Now, you must make
the most important choice

of your young life.
-Yes, what's that?

-You must repent for your sins.

Cleanse your soul or face destruction.

-Who's going to destroy me?

You, preacher?
-Let's just say the forces that fight

evil in any form.
-You and who else?

The district officer, perhaps?

-I've seen him, yes.

He's already seen fit
to confine your sergeant friend.

Cooling his heels, as it were.

-That's why I haven't heard from Jock.

You old bastard.

That was a lousy thing to do.

Don't you know he's on vacation?

I suppose you told him lies about me, too.

-Would it be a lie if I told him you were
a prostitute at the Dragon House

in Da Nang three weeks ago?

-Fuck off.

-Sadie Johnson, you have sinned.
There is evil in you.

The devil has claimed you for his own.

Kneel. God is waiting.
-Let go of me, damn it.

-KneeL
This is your last chance.

God is waiting.
-God can wait.

The district officer can't.

Now we'll just see who carries the weight.

The forces of good
or the forces of plain old-fashioned sex.

Sometimes, Your Honor,

the only defense left
to a lady is to defend herself.

-Miss Johnson, can we dispense
with the histrionics?

The play-acting, Miss Johnson.

We both know why you are here
and why Mr. Mahoney is here.

-Your Honor, I don't even know
a Mr. Mahoney.

-A Mr. James Mahoney?

I believe you know him as Jocko.

-Oh, yes, the sergeant
at the trading post.

-Yes, Miss Johnson, that's the one.

We also have reason to believe,
since you work with him,

you might be able to tell us
where Mr. Harry McHenry is

at the present time.

-Mac?
Sure.

Harry left a couple days ago.

He's probably in Jakarta by now.

-Yes, that was our feeling.

-Would it be possible for me
to see Jocko, just for a minute?

-Certainly.
I'll have him brought in.

He's not a prisoner in that sense,
you may have your privacy with him.

Perhaps 10 minutes, would you say?

-Yes, thank you.
That would be great.

-Very well.

[claps] Karim, bring the sergeant.

Sergeant, you are acquainted
with the young lady?

-Yes, I know her.
So what?

-It occurred to me that you might have
something to say to each other.

That's all.

Now, if you'll excuse me.

-Sad1'e, baby.
God, you're a sight for sore eyes.

God, I missed you.

-Oh, God, I didn't think
I'd ever feel like this about anyone.

I didn't know until right now,
this very minute.

-Well, at least we know where he's at.

-Yes.

I thought he'd been wasted.

That old Rajah, he doesn't screw around.

-Not the way I heard it, Buster.

-Well, I mean, he doesn't waste
any time playing games.

Remember, Doc, when we found
old Christy Walker's body

in the snake garden last year?
-That was no accident.

He looked like a pincushion.

He must have had
300 punctures in his body.

-Say, Doc, you don't think they're going
to kill Jock if they don't find Harry?

-Now, you just wait a minute, kid.

I know what's going on
in that pretty little head of yours,

and you're not turning this kid in.

Besides, I'm Jocko's ticket out of here.

Yours too, baby, and don't forget that.

-What do you mean?

-Sure.
Hey, Doc, didn't you tell her?

-No, she just got back.

-Is that true?
Is that true, Doc, what Harry said?

-I think so, Sadie.

Kollie's fixing it up now.

I saw Harry give the kid
a thousand bucks, cold cash.

-No shit.

Well, Harry, maybe I had you all wrong.

A thousand bucks, that's a lot of loot.

-Is all in readiness?

-Yes, Colonel.
The boy brought the money.

1,000 USD.

-For you, Karim.

Word to no one.

Have your men stay well behind.

We don't want our plan to fail.

-Can I help it
if you sleep next to the bar?

I'm just seeing you home, sugar.

Here we are.
I do expect a good night kiss.

Now, what's the matter with that?
-I wonder where Bella is.

-Don't worry. Remember,
they went to Kalua for a celebration.

They won't be back
until tomorrow afternoon.

-Bean

Bean

You know I can't stand it, don't.
-Yes, but you taste so damn good.

-Don't. Don't.
-What the hell is wrong with you?

What has that psalm-singing
father of yours done to you?

Are you going to be a goddamn prudish
old witch like your mother?

-Don't you ever say anything
like that to me again.

You just don't know anything.
-I know one thing.

Your mother hasn't been laid
since that first time.

She's a goddamn eggshell,
whose insides have been sucked

dry by that self-centered,
egotistical do-gooder.

Sugar, you're going to end up the same way
unless you cut them apron strings now

before it's too late.

-Bear, Bear, wait.

Wait.

That was a pretty speech.

You were close.

It's worse.

Senator Daniels, he's not my real father.

He just married my mother
to give me a name.

He's never slept with my mother.

That's her punishment.

Let the punishment fit the crime.

That's the senator's motto.

He has his crusades, and my mother
has nothing but me and my love.

-I'm sorry, sugar.
I didn't know.

[music] [moaning] [kissing]

-Bear, I think I love you.

-Well, I know that I love you.

[music]

-Hey, Doc.

Give this to Sadie. Ask her
to put it in her suitcase.

-What in the devil would she want
with that moth-eaten souvenir?

You can buy these in Jakarta or anywhere.

-That moth-eaten souvenir, Doc,
is worth a quarter million bucks

after it's refined.

-I see.

Sadie's passage to Jakarta is
to deliver the merchandise, huh?

-You got it, Doc.

Mokhtar is looking for me,
not a piece of ass.

[kissing]

-Be gentle with me.

-Oh, I will, baby.

[moaning] [kissing] [music]

[moaning]

-M1'ss Johnson,

bribing of a policeman,

an official, is a crime

even in our informal society.

It is tantamount
in this case to jailbreak.

-Nobody was hurt.

-No, you're wrong, Miss Johnson.

Mr. McHenry is dead.

Yes.

Even you had reason
to kill him, didn't you?

He sold your body,

perhaps even your soul to the Raja

without your knowledge

for an empty promise.

Now you have nothing.

-Christ, I've never had anything.

Not for long, anyway.

Colonel, you can have it all.

-0h?
How is that, Miss Johnson?

-Let Jock take the booty
and the boat to Jakarta.

The chink knows just
where Harry wanted to go.

The exact spot.

More than anything,
it's Harry's contact you want.

He's the guy.
The buyer.

-Yes.
You make much more sense now.

Very smart.

If Mr. Mahoney is successful
leading us to this buyer,

his reward will be free passage
to Saigon and his discharge.

Yes, that is fair.

-If we get that contact,
Mokhtar, you get your bread,

make the sale,
they'll make you a general.

-Guard, bring the boy.

-No, wait. He was just helping me.

Let him go.
-He paid the bribe.

He shall be held.

Take him.
-M1'ss Sadie, [indistinguishable] on boat.

He going to leave.
Chop-chop.

-Colonel, the boat's about ready to leave.

We've got to get on board.

Don't worry.
The stuff's in here safe and sound.

-Fine, Miss Johnson.

-What the hell are you doing?
-Mr. Mahoney will be responsible for this.

His very life will depend
on its safe passage.

Right, Mr. Mahoney?

As for you, Miss Johnson,

you will stay at the Half Moon,
at least for a time.

-Wait, God damn it.
You said--

-I said you, Mr. Mahoney, will go
free once the sale is consummated.

To make sure it is, Miss Johnson
will be our security.

-You son of a bitch.
You double-crossing bastard.

[screams]

-Mr. Mahoney,

you will kindly accompany my men
to your vessel that will take you

to Jakarta. I promise you,

once you return from Borneo
with evidence of the sale and the bread,

as you call it,

we will kindly release Miss Johnson.

Otherwise,

it will take many nights and many men
to extract from Miss Johnson's loins

the sum of money in which we speak.

Now take him.
-Jock, be careful.

Come back.

-I'll come back.
I'll come back for you.

Don't worry.
I love you.

Now, just keep it warm.

-Mr. McHenry sold Miss Sadie Johnson to me
when I was last in Saigon.

I gave him USD 5,000 cancelled
a far more important debt.

-It was without her knowledge,
Your Excellency.

-It was with mine, Colonel Mokhtar.

Since when do we concern
ourselves with a woman's wishes?

Are we taking on the ways of the West now?

-It's only that I have given my word.

-Then we shall induce her to consent.

Send the boy in.

-Karim, the boy.

-Kneel, dog.

-You are Kollie,
living in the house of Dr. Crater?

-Yes, sir, Your Excellency, sir.

-Good.
Then this is what you must do.

-Miss Sadie.
Miss Sadie.

-Kollie.

Hey, they let you out, huh?

That was damn nice of old Mokhtar.

Pfick.
Hey, can you get my hi-fi?

-Yes, Miss Sadie.

I'll go get it now.
-Oh, wait a minute, kid.

What the hell is your hurry?

We're pals, aren't we?

We've had a lot of laughs together.

You and me and Bear and Jock.

Hell, we'll have a lot more fun
as soon as Jock gets back, too.

-Miss Sadie.

-Hell, when we get hitched,
you guys can all come visit us.

All of you.
You and Bella.

We'll have a great time.

Won't we, kid?
Hey, Kollie.

What's the matter?

Kollie, what's wrong?

It's Jock.

Oh, Christ, sis.
For Christ's sake.

What is it?

-He's dead.

Jock not make shore.

He drowned.

[music]

-Miss Johnson.

Miss Johnson, wake up, please.

The Senator wishes to see you.

-Why the hell should I see
that old bastard?

He hasn't done anything for me.

Besides, the Raja says I don't have
to go if I don't want to.

-Yes, that is correct.

You must tell
that to the Senator in person.

His Excellency
urges you to tell him of your wishes

face to face.

Please, it is an official order.

-Shit.

Why doesn't that mother go
back to the good old USA and stay there?

I'll go.

Hallelujah, Senator.

In a word, the answer is no.

See you around.

-M1'ss Johnson,

I must insist that you stay
and hear me out.

Your life will depend
on the decisions you make today.

You must weigh every alternative
very carefully.

Please, Miss Johnson,

I beg you to hear me out.

-Well, now that's a new twist.

Since you begged me, I guess
I'll have to take longer to say no.

-Please sit down.
Here.

-Why not?

-The Sultan has given me the opportunity

to offer you the choice of
being incarcerated here in Borneo

perhaps for the rest of your life
as a ward of the Raja,

or of going back with me
to the States to stand trial.

-Who are you anyway?

Jesus Christ himself?

-No, I'm merely his servant.

Through his mercy, I'm going
to give you a second chance,

a chance to atone for your sins.

-Big deal.

You mean if I repent,

that is, I want to be good,
I still got to go to clink?

-Yes, you'll have to go back
and accept your punishment.

You will offer to God
as an atonement for your sins.

It's the only way you can prove
that you're worthy of his mercy.

-Man, don't do me any favors.

Where's your mercy, Preacher?

You keep yelling at me to be punished.

For Christ's sake,
I've been punished all my life.

All I ever wanted was to be loved.

Don't you see?

Just when I find somebody,
somebody I care for,

someone I can love and who loves me,

we make plans, then God
or somebody takes it away.

What the hell do you know about suffering?

[gun shot]

-What in heaven's name was that?

-It's the boy, Kollie.

We shot him.

We found him hiding in the palace.

He insisted on seeing Miss Johnson.

-Jock, come on board today, right?
-Right.

Friday, I go back to Saigon
and wait for my discharge papers.

I want to tell you something.

I'm going to celebrate on that day.

-The sergeant's in
for some very jarring news,

I'm afraid.

I don't know why he would want
to come back here anyway.

-He has some unfinished business
to take care of.

Let's face it, he's crazy about Sadie.

-He's certain to find
a dramatic change in that girl.

Lord knows it's all to the good.

The senator's hardly away
from her for 20 minutes and she's calling

for him.
-She blames herself for Kollie's shooting.

I think if he had died,
she would have killed herself.

Now she feels God has provided Kollie
with life to show her the way

to salvation.

-Yes, well, Doc Crater, he had
something to do with that.

-I was surprised
at the brilliance of his medical ability.

He proved himself worthy of the title.

-Yes, the kid will be all right in time.

Meanwhile, it's awful quiet around here.
How about a swim?

-Love to.
-All right.

-Mother, do you mind?
It's awfully hot.

-Go right ahead.

-Come in.

-Sadie.

You're so pale.

You look like death warmed over.

What have they done to you?

God, you're shivering like ice.

If that old bastard is--
-Jock, please, don't talk like that.

The senator has saved my life.

The spirit of God is within him.

Kollie's life was returned to us
so that I might give mine as sacrifice.

Don't you see?

You're safe.

It's all working out the way
he said it would.

-I only see that you're sick.

Look at you. You're as nervous as a cat.

Love is what you need.

A man's love.

My love. Sadie, I've come back
to take you with me.

-Do understand.

He's trying to help me.

To make me a whole woman again.

To be reborn.

I do love you, Jock.

More than I've ever experienced before.

I'm so happy you came back for me.

I could just cry
but I can't come with you now.

Please, believe me.

-That's what you want?

Your mind's made up?

You are dead set on going
through with this?

-Yes, Jock.

Yes, my mind's made up.

It's a wonderful thing to find yourself.

To know where you're going.

-Sadie, what do you want me to do?

-Nothing, Jock.

Just don't say goodbye.

If for some reason we never see
each other again,

I want you to know
that I'll never forget you.

Even

-Same here.

When you finally make
peace with yourself, Sadie,

look me up.

You know where I'll be.

-Jock, I do love you.

I always will.

I'll find you.

-Sure you will.

You'll make it.

I'll see you, Sadie.

-For several nights, he's stayed up
with Miss Johnson, praying.

Poor girl.

Nearly three o'clock
when he came in last night,

collapsed.

Where's Honoré?
I thought she'd come back long ago.

-She was in the bar playing
checkers with the Bear.

Maybe she went to bed.

-I'll go and kiss her goodnight.

-I don't want you to leave, Bear.

I love you.

-Hey, I'll see you
when we get back home, sugar.

Kansas isn't that far from Arizona.

How many times do I have to tell you?

I love you, you're my girl.

-Bean

[kissing] Bear...

You know what that does to me.

-I know what it does to me, too.

-Honoré.

-Oh, God damn it.

Couldn't you knock?

-Honoré.

How could you?

-Please, Mother.
Bear and I,

we're going to be married.

-What did you say?

This is no time to joke.

-Miss Daniels, can I ask you something?

Is it wrong for two people to love,
to show natural emotions for each other?

Two people, two young,
healthy people to make love?

-You're not married.

There's a difference.
-There is, is there?

When is the last time that you
and Mr. Daniels made love?

-The Lord's work is Mr. Daniels' life.

On our wedding night,

he explained to me
his ideals of our marriage.

He believed it should be
a union free from earthly indulgence.

Entirely devoted
to the salvation of others.

-Certainly you have natural emotions.

You can't deny them.

You can only hide them.

-I can safely say our marriage
is entirely a contract of the Spirit.

-I'm sure that Honoré will agree with me
that ours will be much more than that.

-We'll be the ones to decide that.

-Oh, no you won't, Mother.

This engagement band

is the only gift I received today.

It has special meaning.

-What is that supposed to mean?

-You and Father are so busy
with the salvation of Miss Sadie Johnson,

you completely forgot
about my 18th birthday.

[thunder] [rainfall]

-Mr. Daniels.

Mr. Daniels.

-Sadie?

What are you doing up?
A nightmare?

-Yes. I had an awful time getting
to sleep.

Just the rain and thinking
about Jock and Kollie.

-There, there.
-I've got to talk to you, please.

[rainfall]

I am going to be in prison for
three years. It's such a long time.

How many nights like this
am I going to have to go through?

I don't know if I can hold up to it.

I feel so confined and so weak, I guess.

-Yes, now, but every prayer
will make you stronger.

You'll see.

You're shivering.

-In a few days you're going to be gone,

and I'm going to have to be here
all alone and face prison.

Oh God.

-You're soaked clear
through with perspiration,

poor thing.

You better return to bed.

If you want anything,
I'll see you first thing in the morning.

-Please don't go yet.

Please stay with me.

Stay and pray just for a little while.
-Yes, of course.

For a little while.

-I guess I'm just not very strong yet.

-Sadie,

you don't have to go back to San Diego
unless you truly want to.

-I have to.
Don't you see?

What other sacrifice
can I give to God for that?

I have nothing else to offer.

-Thank God.

You said just what I would hope you'd say.

My every prayer has been answered.

-Oh God.

I just hope I'm strong enough
to go through this.

Senator, hold me.
Give me that strength.

Pray for me.

I'm so afraid.

-You get stronger and stronger every day.

You have nothing to fear.

Beautiful radiance.

[rainfall] [thunder]

[music]

[screams]

-My God.

Panama, let's cut him down.

Oh.
-What happened? Bella, are you hurt?

-Honoré, stay here, honey.

It's the Senator.

-What?
-He's dead.

-Dead?

-There was nothing I could do.

I'm sorry, Ms. Honoré,
he's been dead for hours.

-Oh, God.

[sighs]

-Don't run and tell Sadie.
She needs all the rest she can get.

I'll tell your mother, Ms. Honoré,
if you want.

Uh-oh. I won't have to.
Here she comes now.

-Oh, mother.

-Dr. Crater.

-Come with me. I'm sorry, Mrs. Daniels.

-She brave lady, not even cry.

-Mrs. Daniels is made a tough fiber.

Real tough fiber.

Oh, hey Jock, I was wondering
where the hell you were.

-Geez.
-Ain't that a mess?

-Does Sadie know?
-No, I was just going to go wake her up.

[music]

-What is that?

I thought she said she wasn't playing
that thing anymore.

-She hasn't since she got back
from the Half Moon.

-Hell of a time to start, isn't it?

-She hasn't been told.

-For Christ's sake, let's go tell her.

[music]

-Sadie, it's Bear.
Is it okay if I come in?

I got something pretty damn important
to tell you?

-Keep your pants
on soldier while I get mine on.

-Sadie. Baby, you look great.
-Great hell.

I look beautiful, radiant.
I even glow.

Didn't you know that?

Besides, on a day as beautiful as this,
you got to get dressed up.

Wouldn't be right otherwise.

-I'd turn off the stereo, Sadie.

-Why in the hell should I?
-Bear's right, honey.

Turn off the music.
Something happened.

-Yes, you're damn right
something's happened.

On this bright, beautiful morning,
it's like a dawn of a new day,

the day the old Sadie is reborn,

but in her own image.

You and me are going to sow
our wild oats, lover,

and bring forth a lot of fruit.

Australia, here we come.

-The senator is dead, Sadie.

I've been trying to tell you.

-Oh, shit.
What happened?

-He hanged himself.

-Spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.

-I see you've been told.

I think I know how you feel.

I'm sorry for him,

and I'm sorry for you.

For the first time in my life,

I'm not sorry for me.

-Jocko,

Hamil at customs says
there's been a mistake.

There isn't one paid passage to Sydney.

There's two. [laughter]
-Oh.

-You and Sadie get the hell out of here.

-I'll get the high-fi.
-Fuck the high-fl“.

[music]

♫ Sweet Sadie was a girl who loved
all the things in the world, ♫

♫ Like a forest,
the flowers and the streams. ♫

-Papa, I know it was you buy the ticket.

-Get my fishing gear.
♫ Well she started doing

♫ a lot of dope, to be happy, high,

♫ Than to cope with all the problems
that she had to deal with now.

♫ And the soldier said, sexy Sadie,
don't you think that maybe,

♫ You might be my lady tonight?

♫ And the soldier said,
sexy Sadie, please be my baby,

♫ Keep me from going crazy tonight.

♫ She met a man, fell in love because
of the symbol of the white dove.

♫ Oh, Sadie, baby, you're on your way.

♫ They'll get married and settle down,
in some small peaceful Australian town,

♫ Oh, Sadie, oh, happy day.

♫ And her husband says, sweet Sadie,
really love you, baby.
