So Charlie, what are you going to do now?

Those are all good reasons, at least.

Look, I hate explaining this shit, but I figure you guys deserve it. You know what life was before this? Settling. Settling for everything, for Welton and for our fathers' jobs and even for the society. I refuse to settle anymore. And, yes, I do have to be angry at the world, because it's wrong. I'm fixing what's broken, alright? We can read poetry and talk about change all we want, but why settle for dreaming when you can have the world at your feet. This is bigger than Welton, and it requires growing up. Sorry if you can't deal with it. I appreciate the sentiment.

Growing up doesn't mean hurting people.

You've studied history, Todd. A revolution is never bloodless.

They

They don't need a revolution here. They're trying to survive.

They're doing it wrong.

So what will you do if you take over, Nuwanda?

You'll see.

No

No. I want to know.

... Please.

Confidential, Todd.

Do you even know?

Do you really think I'm that much of an idiot? I know.

It

It involves killing people, doesn't it?

Todd? Fuck off.

Even the French had more goals than that, Nuwanda.

I didn't say that was our only goal. Let it go.

You can't run a revolution with two people.

Let it go.

I don't know how it came to this.

I wouldn't expect you guys to.

We all had hard lives, Nuwanda. You and Neil more than most and

We don't have to be those guys. We don't have to be what everyone expects of us

We can be us. I

Why don't you

I can guarantee this isn't what anyone back at home would have expected.

Finish a fucking sentence.

... I'm done.
