if you did not get that, Orlo.

643
00:35:36,595 --> 00:35:39,345
� I did, sir.
� Great. So, my idea.

644
00:35:39,348 --> 00:35:42,228
Do your vision. Ask God who I should pick.

645
00:35:42,226 --> 00:35:44,476
� What? No. No.
� No?

646
00:35:44,478 --> 00:35:46,358
What the fuck are you talking for?

647
00:35:46,355 --> 00:35:49,855
I will pull out your tongue and eat it
with a nice salsa verde if it moves again.

648
00:35:49,858 --> 00:35:52,778
� It does not really work like that.

649
00:35:52,778 --> 00:35:55,988
God��
� Tell him I'm fucking asking.

650
00:35:55,989 --> 00:35:57,279
I am ordained by God,

651
00:35:57,282 --> 00:35:58,992
so he needs to play handball
with me on this

652
00:35:58,992 --> 00:36:01,502
if he doesn't want it all fucked up
by a wrong choice.

653
00:36:01,495 --> 00:36:07,245
� Of course. I will see if I can
create the conditions for a vision.

654
00:36:07,251 --> 00:36:09,841
� Fuck me.
� Did you just speak?

655
00:36:23,267 --> 00:36:26,727
� C... D...

00:36:26,728 --> 00:36:29,108

[Orlo groans]

658
00:36:30,732 --> 00:36:32,992
ORLO: He has sent Archie...
� G...

659
00:36:32,985 --> 00:36:36,945
to commune with God.
[sighs]

660
00:36:36,947 --> 00:36:39,697
God will show Archie a sign,

661
00:36:39,700 --> 00:36:43,250
and he will pick the patriarch
and inform Peter.

662
00:36:43,245 --> 00:36:45,705
He fucking has whoever he wants.

663
00:36:45,706 --> 00:36:48,496
Lying, disingenuous prick.
� Ow!

664
00:36:48,500 --> 00:36:50,340
� Marial!

665
00:36:50,335 --> 00:36:53,755
� He is a good man,
and a holy man in his heart.

666
00:36:53,755 --> 00:36:56,175
� He is your friend and cousin.
You are biased.

667
00:36:56,175 --> 00:36:58,255
He is a political animal,

668
00:36:58,260 --> 00:37:00,640
always protecting the power
and wealth of the church.

669
00:37:00,637 --> 00:37:03,927
� He is a bishop,
that is what you would call his job.

670
00:37:03,932 --> 00:37:07,602
As it is your job to be an annoying,
un�fucked insect.

671
00:37:07,603 --> 00:37:09,483
� Marial, take a breath.

672
00:37:11,148 --> 00:37:14,738
Orlo, if he is a political animal,

673
00:37:14,735 --> 00:37:16,815
he can be reasoned with.

674
00:37:16,820 --> 00:37:18,700
He does at least speak to women,

675
00:37:18,697 --> 00:37:21,407
so he has one up on our man, anyway.

676
00:37:21,408 --> 00:37:23,578
You have done deals in the past.

677
00:37:24,703 --> 00:37:26,083
� Yes.

678
00:37:26,079 --> 00:37:28,749
� So, push him toward our man.

679
00:37:28,749 --> 00:37:29,709
� I could talk to him.

680
00:37:29,708 --> 00:37:32,338
ORLO: And he'll wonder why a woman
cares about the patriarch

681
00:37:32,336 --> 00:37:34,666
and tip our hand.

682

It is my job.

� The patriarch affects the women, too.

00:37:40,177 --> 00:37:41,847
Just ask my nanny,

685

686

in her village

Orlo is wrong.

690
00:37:56,610 --> 00:37:58,450
Archie is a good man.

691
00:37:59,112 --> 00:38:01,322
� I never got over the fingering,
to be honest.

692
00:38:01,323 --> 00:38:02,743
� He had to do that.

693
00:38:02,741 --> 00:38:05,911
It is his role and duty.

694
00:38:07,663 --> 00:38:09,673
When my mother died,

695
00:38:09,665 --> 00:38:12,705
and my father clutched a bottle
and a whore to his breast

696
00:38:12,709 --> 00:38:15,169
instead of his young children,

697
00:38:15,170 --> 00:38:20,090
he took care of me,
and my sister, every day.

698
00:38:20,092 --> 00:38:24,472
He has a hard head for politics,
but trust me, a good heart.

699
00:38:24,471 --> 00:38:26,971
Leaving the bony fingers aside.

� Orlo.

703
00:38:39,862 --> 00:38:42,702
� Can we talk about who the patriarch
should be?

704
00:38:43,657 --> 00:38:47,697
� Always with the politics, Orlo.
What a small world you live in.

705
00:38:47,703 --> 00:38:51,713
� Everything is politics, Archie.
That just means your price is high.

706
00:38:51,707 --> 00:38:54,037
You are going to have a vision,

707
00:38:54,042 --> 00:38:56,502
and lo and behold, it will be Kerlov.

708

� I feel sorry for you
that you think that.

709
00:38:59,381 --> 00:39:01,091
That's the problem with your philosophy.

710
00:39:01,091 --> 00:39:03,011
You aggrandize the individual,

711
00:39:03,010 --> 00:39:04,800
think we're not part of something bigger.

712
00:39:05,637 --> 00:39:08,017
It's a barren wasteland of aloneness

713
00:39:08,015 --> 00:39:10,555
that you try to push us towards.

714
00:39:10,559 --> 00:39:13,269

� And right now your bullshit
enfolds me.

� Any warmth I can bring, my friend.

� Let us work out
who suits us both best.

719
00:39:25,199 --> 00:39:26,699
All I ask.

� I'm God's servant, not yours.

721
00:39:29,161 --> 00:39:31,041
No politics.

00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:39,920
a man we can both work with.

00:39:39,922 --> 00:39:42,052
He has no real opinions.

� Well, you did stripe Svenska
most marvelously.

739
00:40:22,923 --> 00:40:25,183
But her surface is what matters to her,

740
00:40:25,175 --> 00:40:26,965
and you scratched it hard.

� Why? They are dreary.

743
00:40:33,475 --> 00:40:36,475
All you need to do
is be respected by them

744
00:40:36,478 --> 00:40:38,608
and show responsibility for them.

745
00:40:38,605 --> 00:40:40,645
� Show responsibility?

746
00:40:40,649 --> 00:40:43,189
� You are the only voice the women have.

747
00:40:43,735 --> 00:40:46,565
� But I do not have a voice.
� You must grow one.

748
00:40:46,572 --> 00:40:49,832
As you will grow an heir
in your bright, shiny womb.

Oh, wait.

What are these?

00:40:59,209 --> 00:41:00,749
� Inspiration

752
00:41:00,752 --> 00:41:02,502
and education.

753
00:41:02,504 --> 00:41:04,674
� Is it physically possible?

754
00:41:04,673 --> 00:41:06,263
� I thought not,

755
00:41:06,258 --> 00:41:08,428
but as long as you have
someone to brace you,

756
00:41:08,427 --> 00:41:09,967
that one is excellent.

757
00:41:10,929 --> 00:41:12,929
Though painful for a few days after.

758
00:41:14,349 --> 00:41:16,349
You're intrigued.

00:41:18,812 --> 00:41:20,652
� Hmm.

761
00:41:21,148 --> 00:41:24,398
Which brings me to this horse story.

762
00:41:25,277 --> 00:41:29,067
� I wanted to, but the horse said no,
and neigh means neigh.

� You are a delight.

765
00:41:33,076 --> 00:41:36,906
We are all animals, so I would not
judge it harshly if you had.

766
00:41:36,914 --> 00:41:39,754
I once saw a deer so beautiful,

00:41:39,750 --> 00:41:42,170
I leant against a tree

You may have to slap Marial down.

00:41:53,847 --> 00:41:55,557
� That's what she said.

773
00:41:55,557 --> 00:41:56,637
� Wise girl.

774
00:41:56,642 --> 00:41:59,852
You cannot choose a servant
over a lady. It will not do.

775
00:41:59,853 --> 00:42:01,233
� I will not.

It is not easy being empress,

but you can do it.

Now, I have these sticks from Asia.

They are to enhance your fertility,

783
00:42:19,331 --> 00:42:22,131
but I cannot work out
whether we wave them over your womb

784

or insert them into you.

a "wave them" situation.
