Our president,
our big, big man,

:14:10
has appealed the decision
to our Supreme Court.

:14:18
What does that mean?
:14:24
We have to try the case again.
:14:34
Now, I-I know it's hard
to understand, Cinque.

:14:37
I don't understand, for that matter.
:14:42
You said there would be
a judgment, and we would go free.

:14:45
No, no. What I said is that we won
it at the state level.

:14:51
I said if we won it at the
state level, we then go on.

:14:55
- That's what you said!
:14:57
- That's what you said!
- All right! Yes, I said it!

:15:01
I said it, but I shouldn't have.
What I should have said...

:15:05
- I can't translate that.
- You can't translate what?

:15:07
- I can't translate "should".
- There's no Mende word for "should"?

:15:10
No. Either you do something,
or you don't do it.

:15:13
What I meant to say, what I MEANT...
:15:16
- Not in the way you mean it.
:15:20
- Try and understand me.
:15:23
"Meant" is the same as "should".
You're misunderstanding the language.

:15:27
Cinque! Listen to me.
Understand what I'm saying.

:15:31
What I said to you
before the judgment

:15:35
is almost how it works here.
:15:38
- Almost!
:15:43
Almost?
:15:45
Yes, Cinque. But not always.
:15:50
Yes. And that's what's happened here.
