if thereās anything else, make it quick.
whatever i do, i do it to protect you.
youāre confusing peace with terror.
you wanted to kill people.
we have to start somewhere.
we have a long ride ahead of us.
you called me. you knew this was important.
i donāt know! i shouldnāt have even said this much.
everything you told me, itās real?
you also have to give me a chance.
what part of urgent message do you not understand?
do you want a warning? before i do it?
you want to get out of here?
youāre still mad, arenāt you?
itās a chance for you to make a fresh start.
thereās a bounty on your head.
when was the last time you were in contact with your father?
i like to think heās dead.
iāve never had the luxury of political opinions.
iāll always protect you.
iām surprised youāre so concerned with my safety.
iām not concerned. iām just worried our enemies might miss you and hit me.
doesnāt sound so bad to me.
rebellions are built on hope.
weāre not here to make friends.
tell me you have a backup plan.
weāve been in worse cages than this one.
there is more than one sort of prison.
i sense that you carry yours wherever you go.
are we not still friends?
you were ready, and i saw that, even if you did not.
not a day goes by i donāt think of you.
itās a trap. isnāt it?
did they send you? are you here to kill me?
iām doing this job because i have to.
i made myself indispensable.
if youāre happy, then thatās more than enough.
ā this was not my doing.
it wasnāt supposed to happen yet.
your work exceeds all expectations.
iām not the one youāve got to convince.
i thought we were past this.
iād prefer ignorance myself.
i wonāt be long. youāll be fine.
must have been hell of a few days.
iāll be right behind you.
you need to get back down there and find us a ride out of here.
they destroyed my home. i will kill them.
so what did we come for, if not vengeance?
would you like to be carried?
i could carry you anyways.
i need you to trust me, all right?
if a fight starts, try not to hurt anyone.
you donāt know what youāre talking about.
i had orders! orders that i disobeyed!
but you wouldnāt understand that.
orders? when you know theyāre wrong?Ā
we donāt all have the luxury of deciding when and where we want to care about something.
youāre not the only one who lost everything.
some of us just decided to do something about it.
you canāt talk your way out of this.
none of it would have made a difference.
you have to decide for yourself.
iāve given up before, and it doesnāt help.
iāve seen people lose everything because they happened to be in the way.
the time to fight is now.
but i do. i believe you.Ā
every time i walked away from something i wanted to forget, i told myself it was for a cause i believed in.
i couldnāt face myself if i gave up now.
weāve faced longer odds.
not really my problem, is it?
weāll take the next chance.
iām not sure i know how to fight to accomplish something.Ā
your behavior is continually unexpected.
iāve lost nothing but time.Ā
do you think anybodyās listening?
your father would be proud of you.
