You must gather your troops and point to the importance
of tomorrow’s battle. You must motivate the soldiers to be
strong and brave. Each soldier should see the other side
as mortal enemies. They will have to kill if they don’t want
to be killed. Each of them will have to kill at least two
enemies and thus save himself and the dignity of France.
Imagine you were born in 1788, took part in the battle and
were stabbed with a sharp sword. Did all the people who
perished in this battle want to die? Nowadays it seems
ridiculous, but throughout history people have been dying
for some fraudulent purposes and interests.
This is how two people who want to steal money to ensure
their future talk today.
- We have been friends since army days. I am down-and-
out. I gambled away all my money. Now I have nothing,
but I know how we can make a lot of money. I know a rich
man. My girlfriend keeps house for him. She told me
where the strongbox packed with money was. Why don’t
we get this job done?
- Sure. I’m in the same situation. I’ve been fired and now
I’m broke.
