[EPISODE FIVE]

[ANARCHIST FEDERATION OF ROSTOV]

[ROSTOV, 1918]

Where you going? You an anarchist?

Go home to your mother, mate.

Go on in. I can tell you are one of ours.

Go on upstairs. Dinner time!

Who is this?

Nestor Makhno.

Come again?

Nestor Makhno!

From Gulyaipolye, really? -From Gulyaipolye, really.

Friends!

This is the Nestor Makhno.

He created an anarchist republic

on the steppes of Tavria.

Please join us. -Where can I

wash myself and get some sleep? -Over there, on the third floor.

Alright.

Quiet.

This is Nestor Makhno.

Your pocketful of sunflower seeds are fewer

than the people he shot.

Hey! Makhno!

Poor Cossack's son, answer me!

Come on, wake up. The Germans are by Rostov already.

What do you want?

There is no one here.

What do you mean, what do I want?

The Germans are by Rostov, I am telling you. -When they get to Rostov, wake me.

Wow, unbelievable. Are you really

that same Makhno from Gulyaipolye? -Yes, that one.

Liar! The boys say one is a fighter,

and the foremost anarchist.

You are so small and sleepy.

Lazy as a pig.

Listen, quit running your mouth.

If I slash you, you will get smaller too. Understood?

Alright, don't get angry.

Come with me. You will not be hungry for long,

I swear on Odessa.

People are complaining about you here, you know?

That you came here,

chased away the whole conference, and just went to sleep.

I tell them, "wake him up, don't leave him behind."

They say "we are scared. He will maul us like a dog."

I had to wake you. How could I leave such a guy to the Germans.

Who are you, exactly?

Are you joking? I am the first anarchist of Donbas.

Commander of the Donbas anarchist bombers Lev Zadov.

Have you not heard? -No.

That's alright. Soon enough you will. You will learn. Let's go!

♪ It's alright,

♪ You will learn. We will live under a crystal chandelier.

♪ We will wear the latest season's fashion, spend our time at restaurants...

What is this Anarchist Kots? Never heard of it.

[ANARCHIST KOTS...] Who the devil knows? Right now there are more anarchists in

[ANARCHIST KOTS...] Russia than pancakes at the mill.

Stop talking about food, will you.

You in the box. Stand from under!

What are you oinking for, you will-less parasites?

Listen, brother of a dog, we have an interest in your Kots.

What kind of anarchist is this?

What famous personality?

What for? -What do you need?

The wheels are spinning, the train is in motion.

Right. We want to know. We have a right.

It's not Kots. It's Kotsyuba.

Kotsyuba? Never heard of such a famous person.

It's me. I am Kots.

We ran out of paint a bit.

We will finish it after the revolution.

♪ For a pair of ragged ponytails,

♪ the sailor got in a fight with a ragamuffin

Come on down, we have a machine-gun for you.

Nope. I can't.

I am the ship's commander. I must remain at arms.

What do you need those arms for. The Germans are far. You can't hit them.

And the Bolsheviks? -Are you crazy?

We are going to the Bolsheviks.

To help. -Oh, brothers.

You don't know the latest news. It all changed with them now.

Their red guard is becoming the red army.

No more elected commanders. Only conscripts and their commissars.

Disciplined like an old Jew.

But we are going with the Bolsheviks, to fight against the bourgeoisie.

Hah. The front will test everyone. -So what?

Are we going like a seed to the churn?

Let's go, brothers! On board!

First one coming! Follow him!

[ANARCHIST KOTS...]

[NENASYTNOYE VILLAGE]

I knew that it is you. I knew you would come back.

Another one night stand?

Yes.

Why is that? Only one?

I must hurry before the Germans are here.

Why are you afraid of the Germans?

They are friendly with the officers.

I didn't fight them for three years to be friendly with them now.

You have Polish blood in you. Noble.

It appears to me you were waiting for someone, no?

For you.

I am a witch, after all. I could sense it.

So where to now? To the Don again?

I don't know, probably. Cossacks must have had their

fill of soviet government, they will come.

Is it true? -It is true.

Remember how I warmed you? With passion.

Are you not glad?

I am glad. It is just, all this rubbish, and...

What rubbish? Will you come back for me?

What? Of course, don't even doubt it.

You don't have to marry me, but at least don't reject the child.

Of course I will. I accept it, of course.

I would stay if not for the Bolsheviks.

You are about to fight on and on for so long.

Look, brothers! It is a good bazaar out here!

Alright, you are in charge. -Alright.

Why aren't you going, Nestor? Why are you sitting there?

I am responsible for the armoured train. You are free to go.

No money. -What?

No money, are you deaf?

Neither have my lads!

Listen. We can't rob the peasants. We can't.

Citizens, citizens! Quiet!

You see before you, a fearless squad of

revolutionary anarchists. As a result of

uninterrupted bloody battles, we,

how should I say... have grown a little hungry!

Come on, give me that.

Lyova what... This is our entire treasury!

It's alright.

Citizens! We are not some robbers.

Take what we owe you! Here you go. Take it.

This is a good station. A soulful one.

And their moonshine is the best around.

So maybe we will just spend the night too.

Stop!

Get your commander.

I can't. They are asleep and they very much

dislike being woken up.

Tell him he is being summoned by representatives of the local revcom.

Right away.

But I disclaim all responsibility

for this from myself and onto you.

All this noise and no fight?

Why can't you just let me sleep?

We have a warrant to detain you and

to conduct an investigation.

What a disgrace, eh?

For causing a debauch at the bazaar.

More precisely, a looting.

Sounds like they are trying to screw me hard.

At the revcom we will figure out how hard.

We are seizing your armoured train.

Surrender your weapons and come with us.

In formation or what?

Alright. Come in! B-CH-2!

Battle stations, ready to defend!

What should we destroy here first?

Ah. Maybe you could spare a water pump?

B-CH-2! See the water pump?

Shave it the hell off!

Let's head back, brothers.

[ANARCHIST FEDERATION OF BLACK SEA, AZOV, AND POVOLZHYE]

[ANARCHIST FEDERATION OF BLACK SEA, AZOV, AND POVOLZHYE] TSARITSIN

TSARITSIN

Greg!

Nestor, hey! My brother!

I looked for you for over a month. -Yes?

Are you hungry? -A little.

Then let's go. Oh, you!

How great is Russia, listen.

The river Volga seemed like it was at the very edge of the world.

Turns out that beyond the Volga there is land upon land.

All the way to the ocean.

And beyond is Japan. Where our Omelyan lost his eye.

Omelyan and Karpan....

They have been killed, brother. They burned our house down.

Only the oven remains.

And our mother, children?

They were not touched.

Alright.

Tell me in order.

First they burned our house down. Then they came to Omelyan, the guards.

A German officer or something. Nowadays we have so many

different ones.

"Are you Makhno? I am Makhno." They took the children somewhere.

They put him against the wall. No words, only the blast of rifles.

Maybe they mistook him for you,

or simply took revenge.

Then they brought Karpan.

They hit him over the head.

His heart couldn't take it.

He had been very sick lately.

Now mother and the kids, all 14, live at Karpan's house.

I have seen some of your boys. They are waiting for you.

They are taking out German guards and officers

here and there, but it won't work out without you, Nestor.

The people have weapons, but no Ataman.

Rumours are going around that Nestor is different now.

That Nestor is scared.

Have you heard anything about Nastya?

Nothing.

Oh, brother.

I bent over, a branch was hanging there... -What?

Better go hide away from me, man. -And what?

If something happens, go home and tell the boys.

Nestor will be back if he lives. Hurry up, go, quick!

What's up, Nestor? Still playing your little

anarchist games?

Mandolin!

You are really going places, brother!

Not Mandolin,

and not brother, but special commissioner of the provincial Cheka

Roman Savelyich Kusch.

That is what I said, going places!

Have a seat.

I will tell you, in short,

about myself. As you know, I have been to Siberia, in exile.

Got to know some very smart

people who opened my eyes. Taught me.

Made me into a thinking person.

Then I joined the Bolsheviks,

and by the way, on their side is

not just me.

Also power and truth.

And all this... Have you quit that?

Making fun of me?

Do you even know where you are?

Do you know what Cheka is?

Yes, I have heard by the corner of my ear.

Cheka is the punishing sword of the new soviet government.

An important organ of the fight against counterrevolution and sabotage.

All this about the punishing sword and counterrevolution?

That is not about me, pal.

I am more in favour of a soviet government than you.

That is a fact. By the way,

I am the chairman of the Gulyaipolye soviet of working peasants and soldiers.

So don't go waving your sword at me.

You are waving it in the wrong direction.

What people you are, anarchists!

Picked up some weapons

but will not recognise the punishing sword.

But you have a murder on your soul, that is for sure.

you weren't sentenced to a life of hard labour for nothing.

For sure, not just for the carriage and the cherry. Eh?

Why do you all keep hating the anarchists?

We used to be together.

Bolsheviks, anarchists, revolting together

You used to stay right there in Petrograd.

Even now our squads are fighting for the workers.

What is going on? -Now we, Bolsheviks,

are building the red army.

We are disarming the anarchists so that

join us, because anyone who is not

with us is against us. We need a unified fist.

Understand?

Those such as them, we will... what is the word?

Eliminate.

You know such words!

I mean, destroy. It is wartime, we can't afford time.

You understand.

Give me Synyukov!

Synyukov! This is Kusch. Yes, Pyotr Semyonovich?

What is going on out there?

Uh-huh. Yeah, I will be there soon.

That is your Kots getting finished off by our batteries.

In summary, they didn't wish to disarm

and transfer their train to the red army.

The crew must be punished. It is armed resistance.

You are insane, Mandolin! It is all fighting men,

same as you, same as your soldiers!

First of all, I am not Mandolin to you.

Words like "boys," "brothers,"

leave them in your Zaporizh free lands.

What we need are

red army soldiers. Not "brothers."

The free territory is over. That's it! That's it.

Ivan!

Take him, transfer him.

To the steppe? -Keep him here for now.

Just make sure to search him first.

You, go sit and think. If you think of something,

come on over. We will give you a platoon...

or perhaps something bigger.

What is going on out there?

Anarchists fighting the Bolsheviks.

Listen, grandpa.

How did you get matches in here? Didn't they search you?

They did. -And?

And. I could smuggle my mother-in-law up my sleeve

if I wanted to. They don't know how to search, they are still learning.

Someone finished off the other.

Anarchists [got beat].

Shut up.

Anarchists are like this.

Bolsheviks are like this.

What hotel is this, what kind of service?

Get in! -Hey Nestor.

Zadov!

Fancy meeting you here, eh?

I thought you would be smarter.

That you would run away. And here you are! What can I tell you, Ivanovich?

They started the barrage on our Kots,

so we all went over there, and against us

a battery, three guns. What can you do against that, huh?

They peppered us with shrapnel first, just grazing fire off to the side to scare us,

just so the wind would take our hats off.

Everyone took cover. Can you effectively throw a bomb

from cover? No. Then two armoured trains

snuck up on us unnoticed. They started to hit our Kots so hard.

Then the boys replaced the black flag with a white one at once.

Like some kind of winter. So they all got tied up.

Told us if you don't serve in the red army,

they will shoot you.

If you serve you get honour,

respect. Food, clothing. -Well, well.

Even the Bolsheviks need soldiers.

What?

You don't understand the anarchist soul, old man.

The meaning of life.

They are taking our freedom here.

What are you on about? I am an anarchist too.

I was an anarchist even when

you could still walk under the table.

Is that so?

That is right.

Friend, I am the first anarchist of Zavolzhie,

a wolf of the steppe.

There are Zaporizh atamans, and we are a little

different. Got us some guns and partied,

partied all over, burned down some landlords, officers,

Anyway...

That is a cool old guy.

What are you thinking?

To refuse to submit

and to accept death.

I would like to do something heroic,

and to live on in the people's souls thereby.

This will be my afterlife.

Alright, I got you. You are going to heaven. But what should we

do, huh? -Get together, little by little.

To submit?

Run away to Moscow, Kropotkin is there. The truth is there.

Pyotr Alexeyevich? -Yes.

He created a revolution all across Russia. People understand him.

I thought that was Lenin? -Lenin too, of course, but...Lenin...

It would be good to go to Moscow.

So go then!

There is a hole right there! Just go!

What about the guard? -What guard? They are all asleep.

Let's go.

Come on, climb on up!

Tell the whole truth about us out there in Moscow. Everything!

Grandpa. Give me your hat.

Here.

Wait. Take this!

Moscow doesn't believe tears, but it accepts money.

How do you get all this, grandpa?

I told you. I could have smuggled my mother-in-law up my sleeve.

Thank you, dear.

Lyovka, I will be back.

[MOSCOW, KREMLIN]

Stop! Who are you?

Head of the Gulyaipolye soviet of deputies.

What can't you stay in your place then? Head?

You should come visit us.

The Germans will hang you quick, your place

will be so high up!

Alright, enter. You are going to CEC [Central Executive Committee].

I will figure it out.

Are you lost, comrade? Where are you going?

I am going to... to get per diem

for a day or two, for expenses. Is there a problem?

How trifling! It seems to me you are from Ukraine?

From Yekaterinoslav, yes. -Excellent.

Are you familiar with the situation in Ukraine?

Of course, intimately familiar.

Alright, wonderful. Then let's solve your problem.

Let's go, let's go.

Sure, let's go. Let's go.

To solve our problem.

[CHAIRMAN OF CEC Y[AKOV] M[IKHAILOVICH] SVERDLOV

Greetings! -Here, Yasha, is a comrade from Yekaterinoslav.

Perfect for your report, from the very thick of it, so to speak.

Who are you?

Makhno. Nestor Ivanovich. Chairman of Gulyaipolye

soviet of peasant deputies,

since the summer of last year and to this day. Also

some other titles, as numerous as fleas on a dog.

So you are from Yekaterinoslav? Bread country.

-Bread. What are your political convictions?

Anarcho.... communist.

Please. I haven't heard such a fairytale

in a long time. In vain, in vain, for you

should speak with the comrade.

To you it may appear a fairytale. But while you were thinking about your

revolution here and making promises, we divided our land, created a commune,

and set up a great life for the workers.

Is that so? -Yes. It turns out you are evil.

How could I not be evil?

Nine years of hard labour.

Beatings and consumption. -You won't impress us

with any of that, comrade. Alright, if you are so

hairy, please tell.

What makes your anarchist Ukraine breathe?

You have the wrong idea about Ukraine. Someone whispered in your ear,

or maybe you read some old books, I don't know.

No no, don't get upset. Don't take offence. I am only prodding you.

I am not a woman, what are you prodding me for?

Tell me what is bothering you.

For example, what is the disposition of your peasants?

Why was our red guard

not met with support? I have a message.

Nobody came out to meet them at the train station with flowers.

That is true, and threw away your message.

We met the red guard well. We got two wagons of bread together at the parish for

Moscow, but we haven't seen much help from the red guard at all so far. They are always

in wagons and on armoured trains.

Always scared to stray too far from

the railroad. What do you see from the wagons?

Can't win the war either, of course. But to run

away on armoured trains is so convenient.

They ran from the Germans faster than rabbits. Whom

did they leave the peasants to? That is right, the Germans.

So please tell me now. What kind of relationship can

you have with the peasants?

But you are also... here and not there...

you ran away too?

I did. Under special circumstances.

Two of my brothers were killed by pans and Germans because of me.

Alright.

Marina Ignatyevna? We have an interesting person here from Ukraine.

Vladimir Ilyich [Lenin] was interested in this question.

Yes, fresh.

When?

Alright.

What, Lenin himself? -Lenin himself.

So, what drew you to Moscow, what tragedies?

How should we live? It's all going south.

Revolution should deliver happiness

to the workers, and what do we have?

Sit, sit.

Lads, you are asking me, but I want to

ask you, how should we live? We thought

the communists and Bolsheviks are our best

friends, and they repress us in every way they can.

Where in the world?... -The nation of Belovodye doesn't exist.

It is all made up.

You know, we are building a

communist society. We have encountered some

difficult obstacles.

We hadn't foreseen them. We were hoping that following

Russia, the revolution would start everywhere.

It hasn't. For now. So it appears that we

got into a fight without knowing what

awaits us ahead. But we cannot miss this moment.

We shall continue to fight.

But the anarchists were with you, next to you.

Helping you by the thousands, and you pushed them away.

They were. They helped in the moment of destruction of

the old, but they also didn't know what to do next.

Militants, terrorists, explosions and arson.

We knew. We knew what to do. Right away, we set out to

build a stateless society and you tied our hands.

I mean that metaphorically, of course.

If need be, we will do it literally.

You are a debater.

Very good... We debated too much, about revolution.

We would meet, adjourn, but if now

we bog ourselves down in debates once again,

we will be crushed.

Crushed. -By whom? The Germans?

No.

They will leave as they came. Entente.

Do you even know Nicholas II and the temporary government got us into so much

debt that Russia couldn't pay it off in a century?

Billions upon billions! If not for us, Russia would inevitably

be turned into a colony, into a sort of base

for the world's imperialists. Only we could say

"No debts! Not to anyone! That's it!"

Dear comrade.

There is no way around a terrible bloody fight,

but in order to win,

the proletariat must firmly take

the reins of government into its hands. Build a strong state.

Some of these conclusions I could not have

reached on my own when, three months before October [1917],

I was writing The State and Revolution.

Couldn't think of them, I admit.

For you anarchists,

what is the system of control?

There is no control, so to speak. Declaration of will? Yes.

Via soviets. But only non-state soviets,

free and elected. -Elected by all?

No, no exploiters allowed, of course.

No nobility, no [religious] patriarchy.

So what do we get? It turns out that even you

don't have total freedom. -Right.

That is correct.

Furthermore. You do not have control?

At the soviets, we figure out where to go next and how,

and the workers decide of course. -At meetings?

Yes.

Meanwhile, the bourgeoisie tear off piece after piece.

Have you heard anything about the Celts?

Sure. I know of such people.

The Celts are the most ancient population of most of Europe,

and your ancestors in ideology.

They were also against armies. Fought altogether as a people.

There were no laws, no courts,

everything was decided at meetings and assemblies.

Their Druid priests even rejected writing, believing only in the live, direct word.

The Romans went to war against the Celts.

They were tenfold fewer in number. But disciplined, strict, precise.

They destroyed the Celts in the shortest time.

Do you need the moral of the story? It can all happen to

us if we succumb to anarchist ideas.

Please, here is a more familiar example.

Our anarchist, now Bolshevik Dybenko

managed to lose Nava to a German battalion.

Although he actually had a division, but there was no discipline.

Could you please remind me what happened to these Romans later on?

I think they were overrun by the dark barbarians.

Great job, great defence!

We could use you.

Will you fight the Germans?

Who would refuse to fight for his land?

Excellent. You understand, the red army currently

cannot resist Germany.

Not for lack of power, no, but due to the conditions

of this brisk world. Also Comrade Trotsky

has only just started to reorganise

the forces, but the peasant partisan war is a knife

to the soft underbelly of the occupant.

Do you agree? -I agree.

Excellent. We will help you in any way we can.

Go on home.

We will help you get there. Yakov Mikhailovich,

please provide a document for the comrade, say he

is an engineer returning from the hospital back home.

I am afraid I can't pull off an engineer.

Maybe a teacher? -Very well, you will be a teacher then.

Think on this also while you are on the road.

Anarchism as an ideology is very appealing to

a majority of the peasants. The reason for this is that

the peasantry, especially yours, Ukrainian, has a well-developed

sense of property. Of a petite bourgeoisie origin.

It is a force of nature. You need a firm hand to control it.

Take this as an axiom: under the leadership

of an organised proletariat your villagers

can actually achieve something.

We will not accept this axiom.

We don't need anyone above us. We can get there on our own.

Alright. Once we win, we will finish our debate.

It's all ahead.

Goodbye.

Hold on, I will see you out.

A very serious character. -I thought so too.

A very, very useful

fellow traveller, but... only until the first intersection.

The mirror should also fit. Careful, better not break it!

Wrap it up in something. Some kind of comforter maybe.

Hello, Pyotr Alexeyevich. -Hello.

I am here for a very important matter. I am glad I made it in time.

Sure sure, pretty boy, you come from Stepan Vasilyevich?

I don't have enough hands for such trivialities, upon

trivialities, here, take this. Put it on the wagon!

Where is Pyotr Alexeyevich?

He is already leaving. -How?

Just like that.

To Savyolovsk train station.

Pyotr Alexeyevich! Pyotr Alexeyevich

Oh, I completely forgot, pretty boy.

I made a promise to Stepan Vasilyevich. Even signed a note.

Here, the best, London, 1894 edition.

Let him remember this old man.

Go!

[THE GREAT REVOLUTION] [Thank you! Kropotkin]

[STATION KAZACHYA LOPAN']

Checking, checking, who has documents? Identification?

[Ukrainian] Your identification, please.

Yours too, get them ready.

I said your identification!

Excuse me, I don't understand.

You don't understand? Maybe if you don't understand

you shouldn't be going to Ukraine.

We are now a young independent nation.

We demand that all speak the national language.

You are so independent, bootlicking at the border!

What?

Who is barking over there? I am about to come over.

You have valueable?

What?

[Russian] Do you have valuable property?

Give it here.

I am sorry, but

our young nation has a need

for cash. So, as you already know, the Moscal

has robbed us, robbed us.

Welcome to Ukraine. It's alright, don't worry. Ukraine isn't Russia.

You will not starve.

Have you stolen the jewellery?

What? What's it to you, you dog?

Give me your identification! I said, your ID,

or you are off this train!

Come on, come on!

Hm. A teacher of the people! I see. You were at the hospital?

You still have consumption, or what?

That is right, still contagious.

You dog! Leave the wagon! Get out before I drag you out myself!

It was you! It was you that called me an bootlicker, eh?

Leave now! Leave before I drag you out myself. Run!

Follow me!

Come on, come on. Quickly!

Make way!

I will show you an bootlicker! Come on.

Follow me, I said. Come on, come on, get out. Guards!

Guards! Here. Here. A very suspicious character.

Documents say he is a people's teacher

but doesn't speaks the national language poorly.

Please investigate.

Why do you not know the Ukrainian language?

I would know it, but

but I sat in czar's prison for nine years.

Nine years? -Exactly.

Consumption?

It says right there. -Alright, alright.

What, you can't figure out for yourself who stands before you?

Guards, but I....

A fighter for Ukrainian freedom, a victim of czarism!

I am sorry, guards.

He's been robbing people! Here, check his right pocket!

Check it! -I can explain everything!

Guards, guards, I....

I can explain everything, guards!

Is this how you defend the honour of this young nation,

you animal? You dog!

I will explain everything. I...I...

was only trying to...

You are free to go. Ride on.

Don't let him go, guards. He is...guards...

Get out of here.

Guards! Guards! Listen!

He called me an bootlicker! Guards!

Go away!

This "photograph" of yours looks familiar.

Have I seen you before?

No. I am from someplace else.

Yes?

Alright then.

If I were you, I wouldn't be travelling across the

country roads of your homeland like this. A document's a document, but

your physiognomy is another thing.

The closer you get to Gulyaipolye, the more military presence, and those...

how do you call them? Detectives.

It's alright. We are not going to Gulyaipolye.

Do you know Tyernoviy village? -Sure.

You will turn toward Tyernoviy then.

Yes? Alright.

[TYERNOVIY VILLAGE]

[TYERNOVIY VILLAGE] Nestor!

You devil!

Calm down, calm down!

Hello. Hello.

Come on in, boys.

Listen, it's all messed up here.

I know you wanna know this.

You understand? Germans, hetmans, Austrians, and all our people are at home hiding.

Why is not clear. -I heard Fyedos is somewhere around here.

Why didn't you come to him?

I didn't want to. I don't think it's in his nature.

You are so smart now!

Times are such that everyone is getting smart real quick.

Any what, did Ivan run away?

I don't know, Ivan's gone. It seems he may have died after he left us at the bridge.

Some people said they had seen him with the Roma,

but I don't believe it. There was also a rumour that in Yekaterinoslav,

there's a skull buried somewhere. To hell with him anyway.

Everyone has their own road to travel.

So after Lenin,

after I got that document and support,

I went to our batko,

the chief of international anarchy, Pyotr

Alexeyevich Kropotkin. -Is that him?

Yes, that's him.

What can I say, my brothers?

I was so scared. Who am I against Kropotkin?

I am like this, and he's like that.

He has been to every country! Wrote books!

More books than I have eaten dumplings.

He took the revolutionary sabre of freedom

from the hands of Bakunin himself and said the most

important thing. He said:

"I cannot give you any advice,"

"comrade Makhno, should you return"

"to Ukraine or not, it's very dangerous there,"

"but if you go, then know that the revolution"

"does not tolerate sentimentality."

Those are learned words, of course,

but in our language, in simple words,

it means that we must destroy the occupants! The hetmans.

The pans! To the very root!

And all other scum, to their very root!

No blood spares! No life spared! Not yours, not anyone else's!

After all that, when we were saying goodbye on the porch,

he hugged me and said:
