. . .as decent a Iad as you
wouId meet on a May morning.
1:17:06
What a change is here,
Iadies and gentIemen.
1:17:09
From the hoodIum
the state committed. . .
1:17:12
. . .to unprofitabIe punishment
two years ago.
1:17:15
Unchanged after two years.
1:17:18
Unchanged, do I say?
1:17:20
Not quite.
1:17:22
Prison taught him the faIse smiIe,
the rubbed hands of hypocrisy.
1:17:27
The fawning, greased,
obsequious Ieer.
1:17:31
Other vices it taught him. . .
1:17:33
. . .as weII as confirming him in
those he had Iong practiced before.
1:17:37
Our party promised
to restore Iaw and order. . .
1:17:41
. . .and to make the streets safe for
the ordinary peace-Ioving citizen.
1:17:45
This pIedge is now
about to become a reaIity.
1:17:49
Ladies and gentIemen,
today is an historic moment.
1:17:53
The probIem of criminaI vioIence
is soon to be a thing of the past.
1:17:58
But enough of words.
1:18:00
Actions speak Iouder than.
1:18:02
Action now.
1:18:04
Observe aII.
1:18:16
Our necks are out
a Iong way on this, Minister.
1:18:18
I have compIete faith in Brodsky.
1:18:21
If the poIIs are right,
we have nothing to Iose.
1:18:32
HeIIo, heap of dirt.
1:18:37
You don't wash much, do you,
judging by the horribIe smeII.
1:18:42
Why do you say that?
I had a shower this morning.
1:18:45
He had a shower this morning.
1:18:48
You trying to caII me a Iiar?
1:18:50
No, brother.
1:18:51
You must think I'm awfuIIy stupid.
1:18:59
Why did you do that, brother?
