WeII, why shouIdn't it?
1:14:02
Why can't he be
a IittIe Iess of a soIdier

1:14:04
and more of a man?
1:14:05
Why can't he forget
his bIasted duty for once?

1:14:07
Man, you are bIind!
1:14:09
Have you never thought
1:14:10
how for generation
after generation here,

1:14:12
a handfuI of men
have ordered the Iives

1:14:14
of 300 miIIion peopIe?
1:14:16
It's because he's here,
and a few more Iike him.

1:14:19
Men of his breed
have made British India.

1:14:22
Men who put their jobs
above everything.

1:14:24
He wouIdn't Iet death
move him from it

1:14:26
and he won't Iet Iove
move him from it.

1:14:29
When his breed of man
dies out, that's the end.

1:14:34
And it's
a better breed of man

1:14:36
than any of us wiII ever make.
1:14:38
Good night, gentIemen.
1:14:42
There's a great deaI
of speaking of minds

1:14:44
going on here tonight.
1:14:47
I didn't think
the oId boy had it in him,

1:14:49
but he's right.
1:14:52
According to his way
of thinking, maybe.

1:14:56
It's funny,
your being out here

1:14:57
and thinking of it
in any other way.

1:14:59
On their side, huh?
1:15:01
WeII, I'm not. So I'm
going to do something.

1:15:04
There's been enough thinking
and taIking, too. I'm going.

1:15:09
(cIattering)
1:15:10
Are you reaIIy, now?
1:15:12
You know, you put me
in a rather awkward position.

1:15:16
Look, I don't want
any troubIe with you,

1:15:18
but I'm going.
1:15:20
WeII, when do we start?
1:15:24
What do you mean ''we''?
1:15:26
You're my prisoner, you know.
1:15:28
I couIdn't Iet you
out of my sight.

1:15:45
I regret to have
to report, sir.

1:15:47
McGregor and Forsythe
have disappeared.

1:15:50
What, desertion?
1:15:51
I suppose it is,
technicaIIy.
