Colbert come down
from Chicago to build it.
:49:03
I hear they're gonna hire a thousand men.
Half of them'd be coloured.
:49:08
- Know what that means?
- Probably got him killed.
:49:11
That's what Mrs Colbert thinks.
She wants us to catch her a killer.
:49:15
No killer, no factory.
:49:18
Well, it's a lotta jobs for a lotta
coloured people. You follow me?
:49:24
- I'm going home, man.
- They're your people.
:49:27
Not mine - yours. You made this scene.
:49:30
- What do you want me to do? Beg you?
- Look, l've had your town up to here!
:49:35
Boy, it would give me a world
of satisfaction to horsewhip you, Virgil!
:49:45
My father used to say that.
:49:50
- Even did, once or twice.
- Yeah, well, not enough to suit me.
:49:56
Now you listen to me.
:49:58
Just once in my life
l'm gonna hold my temper.
:50:01
I'm tellin' you that you're gonna stay.
:50:03
You'll stay here if l have to have your
chief remind you what he told you to do.
:50:08
But l don't think
l have to do that, you see?
:50:10
No. Because you're so damned smart.
You're smarter than any white man.
:50:14
You're just gonna stay here
and show us all.
:50:17
You could never live with yourself
unless you could put us all to shame.
:50:23
You wanna know something, Virgil?
:50:26
I don't think that you could let
an opportunity like that pass by.
