"Thou shalt not
muzzle the ox."

:27:03
No, no, no,
next verse.

:27:05
"If brethren dwell together, and one
of them die and have no child...

:27:09
"the wife of the dead
shall not marry unto a stranger.

:27:12
Her husband's brother shall go in
unto her and take her to him to wife."

:27:16
- Wait. What?
- What did she say?

:27:19
Yeah, what did I say?
"The wife of the dead shall not marry...

:27:24
"unto a stranger.
:27:26
Her husband's brother shall go in
unto her and take her to him to wife"?

:27:29
What is this book?
Is this a comedy or something?

:27:33
Uncle Wilhelm, I think maybe I should
read 'cause she must be getting this wrong.

:27:38
No, no, no, no, she's not incorrect,
nor the word of our Lord.

:27:41
Havana, Ezekiel has
an obligation by our law...

:27:45
to ask you...
to marry him.

:27:49
- [Chuckles]
- But there's no cause for alarm.

:27:52
You will simply
refuse him and that will be that.

:27:55
- What will be what?
- Well... you have to leave.

:28:00
- What do you mean I have to leave?
- Here. $100.

:28:04
- We'll drive you to the bus stop.
It'll take you to the city.
- You can't just kick me out.

:28:09
Nobody wants to kick you out,
but we have no choice.

:28:12
As an outsider, you are
not allowed to remain here.

:28:15
I know this seems harsh,
but it is the best.

:28:19
The Hutterite way of life,
Havana, is not for you.

:28:23
So I have to leave now
with this $100?

:28:26
I'm sorry.
:28:28
EzekielJakobson, it falls to you to perform
the duty of the brother-in-law. Ask her.

:28:32
Let us get this
done with.

:28:34
But, Uncle Wilhelm, I'm only
12 years old. I still hate girls.

:28:39
- L-I'd much prefer a frog...
- Don't disgrace yourself in the eyes of God!

:28:44
- Ask her, please.
- But I'd make a bad husband.

:28:47
- Don't make me do this.
- You must, child!

:28:50
It's the Lord's rules.
You must please Him.

:28:55
Um...
[Sighs]

:28:58
Uh... will you...
Will you, um...
