...where the minority clan won the
presidential office by 80 votes,

...and there was no violence?
252

was peaceful.
253
00:13:35,749 --> 00:13:38,850
It was peaceful because nobody
bothered reporting on it.

consequences.
343
00:17:24,611 --> 00:17:26,678
What the fuck
are you talking about?
344
00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:28,780
Michael Topper, author of
"Channeling UFOs..."
345
00:17:28,782 --> 00:17:30,882
...and "The Positive/Negative
Realms Beyond This World?"
346
00:17:30,884 --> 00:17:33,752
You read too much.
Fuck more girls, instead.
347
00:17:33,754 --> 00:17:40,125
Speaking of which, I read
that writing sample you gave me.
348
00:17:40,127 --> 00:17:42,027
Bad?
349
00:17:42,029 --> 00:17:44,996
Why the fuck would you write a piece...
350
00:17:44,998 --> 00:17:48,900
...on how to get away
without paying parking tickets?
351
00:17:48,902 --> 00:17:51,102
- I thought people would laugh.
- Laugh?
352
00:17:51,104 --> 00:17:53,805
Parking tickets pay
for the roads.
353
00:17:53,807 --> 00:17:56,741
The roads get you
out of this shit hole.
354
00:17:56,743 --> 00:17:59,344
- So you hated it?
- No, actually.
355
00:17:59,346 --> 00:18:01,179
I liked it.
356
00:18:01,181 --> 00:18:04,316
It's not the second
coming of Hunter S. Thompson,
357
00:18:04,318 --> 00:18:08,620
...but you write
with a good conscience.
358
00:18:08,622 --> 00:18:09,854
- You think?
- Yeah.
359
00:18:09,856 --> 00:18:12,123
Don't let it go to your head.
360
00:18:12,125 --> 00:18:15,160
Bravo.
361
00:18:15,162 --> 00:18:20,365
So Avril Benoit,
you know who she is?
362
00:18:20,367 --> 00:18:22,334
Yeah, uh, she's on CBC Radio.
363
00:18:22,336 --> 00:18:24,803
She did a great report
on Kenya a few weeks ago.
364
00:18:24,805 --> 00:18:28,907
Exactly.
She's a friend of mine, uh,
365
00:18:28,909 --> 00:18:33,345
...and I want to put you
in contact with her.
366
00:18:33,347 --> 00:18:35,046
Okay.
367
00:18:35,048 --> 00:18:38,717
She's a good one
for feeding pages to.
368
00:18:38,719 --> 00:18:42,387
So you got... you got
a book outline?
369
00:18:42,389 --> 00:18:44,289
- No.
- Wrong.
370
00:18:44,291 --> 00:18:47,092
You're formulating one, okay?
371
00:18:47,094 --> 00:18:49,361
I haven't. I mean, this is
all happening so fast.
372
00:18:49,363 --> 00:18:51,630
I just... I Googled
"Somalia press,"
373
00:18:51,632 --> 00:18:53,164
...found Farole's name,
and sent out a blind email.
374
00:18:53,166 --> 00:18:54,933
I had no idea this was
gonna blow up, none.
375
00:18:54,935 --> 00:18:57,936
Bahadur, you got
a book outline?
376
00:18:57,938 --> 00:18:59,671
No! That's what I'm trying
to tell you...
377
00:18:59,673 --> 00:19:06,111
Stop! Try again.
You got a book outline?
378
00:19:06,113 --> 00:19:07,912
I'm formulating it.
379
00:19:07,914 --> 00:19:10,015
I knew you'd get it
on the third try.
380
00:19:10,017 --> 00:19:11,783
Come on, let's go.
381
00:19:11,785 --> 00:19:16,855
So how much do you know
about Somalia?
382
00:19:16,857 --> 00:19:18,890
Uh, well, I did a term paper...
383
00:19:18,892 --> 00:19:20,925
...on it my freshman year
at university, so.
384
00:19:20,927 --> 00:19:22,327
That's good.
385
00:19:22,329 --> 00:19:26,064
Don't tell me the grade.
It's a start.
386
00:19:26,066 --> 00:19:27,966
Immerse yourself in it.
387
00:19:27,968 --> 00:19:29,401
You dig cigars?
388
00:19:29,403 --> 00:19:32,070
I never understood cigars.
389
00:19:32,072 --> 00:19:34,139
That's clever,
don't you think, Jo?
390
00:19:34,141 --> 00:19:37,375
Okay. Save this.
391
00:19:37,377 --> 00:19:41,346
By the time this thing
is over, you will.
392
00:19:41,348 --> 00:19:44,949
Jo, thank you.

The Jays are going to lose

- I have an announcement.
397
00:19:57,798 --> 00:20:02,233
- What kind of announcement?
- Yes, what kind?
398
00:20:02,235 --> 00:20:07,238
Uh, I'm gonna go to Somalia...
399
00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:10,275

404

- I believe so,
406
00:20:31,231 --> 00:20:34,065

00:22:03,990 --> 00:22:05,824

a moment now to say...
433
00:22:05,826 --> 00:22:07,358
...that not all the characters
in this film...
434
00:22:07,360 --> 00:22:08,827
...are exactly like
they are in real life,
435
00:22:08,829 --> 00:22:11,129
...except for that stewardess.

00:22:11,131 --> 00:22:13,598

depicted completely accurately...
437
00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:16,601
...in her total lack
of empathy for my pain.
438
00:22:16,603 --> 00:22:18,603
Thankfully I only had to spend
the next eight hours...
439
00:22:18,605 --> 00:22:20,271
...of my journey with her,
440
00:22:20,273 --> 00:22:22,207
...and then I'd get
a new stewardess,
441
00:22:22,209 --> 00:22:24,375
...and then another stewardess,
and then another.
442
00:22:24,377 --> 00:22:26,177
In fact,
I might have set...
443
00:22:26,179 --> 00:22:28,079

flight record to Somalia,
444
00:22:28,081 --> 00:22:30,515

allow me to write my book,

...than myself,
the people of Somalia.
469
00:24:04,110 --> 00:24:07,612
Hard to believe this land was
once known as a nation of poets.
470
00:24:07,614 --> 00:24:10,114
Throughout their history,
the Somali poet was counted on...
471
00:24:10,116 --> 00:24:12,183
...to defend a clan's honor.
472
00:24:12,185 --> 00:24:13,985
They used poems of persuasion...
473
00:24:13,987 --> 00:24:16,654
...in lieu of weapons
to settle disputes,
474
00:24:16,656 --> 00:24:19,958
...but in the 20th century
times changed.
475
00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:21,326
Both the English
and the Italians...
476
00:24:21,328 --> 00:24:23,628
...attempted to colonize them.
477
00:24:23,630 --> 00:24:25,630
They introduced guns
into battle,
478
00:24:25,632 --> 00:24:28,733
...and although Somalia
valiantly refused to succumb,
479
00:24:28,735 --> 00:24:32,370
...the scars of war never relented.
480
00:24:32,372 --> 00:24:35,373
Somalia's recent civil war
had caused over a million people...
481
00:24:35,375 --> 00:24:38,543
...to flee to neighboring
countries as refuges.
482
00:24:38,545 --> 00:24:42,747
Those who stayed faced droughts,
floods, famine,
483
00:24:42,749 --> 00:24:45,750
...feuding clan battles, and jihad.
484
00:24:45,752 --> 00:24:48,987
Their newly-elected President
Farole had his hands full,
485

00:54:21,893 --> 00:54:26,929
The movie I think is
very wrong is "Black Hawk Down."
1012
00:54:26,931 --> 00:54:30,032
Because, uh, it's about
what went down in Mogadishu?
1013
00:54:30,034 --> 00:54:34,203
No, because it's about
our people,
1014
00:54:34,205 --> 00:54:39,342
...and they do not use a single
person from Somalia in it.
1015
00:54:39,344 --> 00:54:42,078
It is wrong.
1016
00:54:42,080 --> 00:54:46,249
- I didn't know that.
- Yes.
1017
00:54:46,251 --> 00:54:49,318
"Derka derka Mohammed jihad,"
1018
00:54:49,320 --> 00:54:53,823
That's what they were doing
the whole pathetic film.
1019
00:54:53,825 --> 00:54:57,059
You just did "Team America."
That's crazy. Wow.
1020
00:54:57,061 --> 00:55:00,997
Yes, "Team America"
said many smart things.
1021
00:55:00,999 --> 00:55:04,100
This conversation
is getting surreal.
1022
00:55:04,102 --> 00:55:07,036
You know this city
talks about you?
1023
00:55:07,038 --> 00:55:09,372
- Oh, yeah?
- Yeah.
1024
00:55:09,374 --> 00:55:11,407
What are they saying?
1025
00:55:11,409 --> 00:55:15,077
They're saying you're here
to expose the truth...
1026
00:55:15,079 --> 00:55:18,481
...about the badaadinta badah.
1027
00:55:18,483 --> 00:55:19,882
- Yeah?
- Yeah.
1028
00:55:19,884 --> 00:55:23,052
Well, I mean, I am trying,
1029
00:55:23,054 --> 00:55:28,024
...but, uh,
what do you think about them?
1030
00:55:28,026 --> 00:55:30,593
I'm not the person to ask.
1031
00:55:30,595 --> 00:55:33,095
I'm married to one.
1032
00:55:33,097 --> 00:55:35,932
- Garaad.
- So you know?
1033
00:55:35,934 --> 00:55:38,534
I know, yeah.
He's a very powerful man.
1034
00:55:38,536 --> 00:55:40,236
I'm trying to meet him.
1035
00:55:40,238 --> 00:55:44,407
Yeah, you and I
both want that meeting.
1036
00:55:44,409 --> 00:55:47,176
You don't see him much?
1037
00:55:47,178 --> 00:55:50,479
Not since I married him, no.
1038
00:55:50,481 --> 00:55:52,281
Well, you'd be
a better treasure...
1039
00:55:52,283 --> 00:55:54,884
...than anything he'd find
on one of those ships.
1040

I'm fucking dead.

Don't say that.

- You had no choice.
- Yeah.
1183
01:03:40,551 --> 01:03:42,051
I came here
with the noble idea...
1184
01:03:42,053 --> 01:03:43,686
...of exposing the truth,
1185
01:03:43,688 --> 01:03:48,791
...and I lied
to everyone around me.
1186
01:03:48,793 --> 01:03:50,954
You wake me in the middle

1187
01:03:54,831 --> 01:03:58,734
I came here
to ask you a favor.
1188
01:03:58,736 --> 01:04:01,937
- Ask me.
- Yeah, okay.
1189
01:04:01,939 --> 01:04:08,510
I need you to help me get on
a ship and film some hostages.
1190
01:04:08,512 --> 01:04:10,979
- Jay, that is not wise.
- I know it's not wise.
1191
01:04:10,981 --> 01:04:15,017
I know that, but, you know, this
is the only way that people out...
1192
01:04:15,019 --> 01:04:19,521
...there are gonna give a fuck
about what is going on here.
1193
01:04:19,523 --> 01:04:20,756
It's the only way.
1194
01:04:20,758 --> 01:04:22,491
I don't believe that.
1195
01:04:22,493 --> 01:04:24,360
Dude, CBS is willing
to pay $1,000, okay?
1196
01:04:24,362 --> 01:04:26,095
I'll split it with you
if you can get me on a ship.
1197
01:04:26,097 --> 01:04:29,031
I'll split it with you.
That's $500, American dollars.
1198

...a famous reporter
getting killed,

1212

used to fight with words...
1213
01:05:05,169 --> 01:05:06,902
...rather than weapons?
1214
01:05:06,904 --> 01:05:08,537
I knew that, yes.
I did a paper on that.
1215
01:05:08,539 --> 01:05:11,940
So you know our
great freedom fighter,
1216
01:05:11,942 --> 01:05:14,643
...the poet warrior Mohammed
Abdullah Hassan, Sayyidka?
1217
01:05:14,645 --> 01:05:16,145

Mad Mullah.
1218
01:05:16,147 --> 01:05:18,180
Ah, you know of him.
1219
01:05:18,182 --> 01:05:21,083
Yes, I do, and I also know
that iambic pentameter...
1220
01:05:21,085 --> 01:05:23,652

- Better?

better than that?
1224

- The Garaad?
- Yes.
1226
01:05:36,033 --> 01:05:38,000
The godfather of pirates?
1227
01:05:38,002 --> 01:05:41,770
The man you want to have
crazy sex with his wife.
1228
01:05:41,772 --> 01:05:43,639
What makes you say that?
1229
01:05:43,641 --> 01:05:46,708
You don't think all

1230
01:05:46,710 --> 01:05:48,143
Does Garaad?
1231
01:05:48,145 --> 01:05:50,813
If he know,
you wouldn't be here.
1232
01:05:50,815 --> 01:05:52,014
That's comforting.
1233
01:05:52,016 --> 01:05:54,183
He wants me as a translator,
1234
01:05:54,185 --> 01:05:57,519
...so perhaps I trade
for the possibility of him...
1235
01:05:57,521 --> 01:05:58,954
...and you in a room.
1236
01:05:58,956 --> 01:06:00,189
Then you're putting
yourself in danger.
