本片段剧情:Aldo落入了Landa手中,本以为难逃一死,没想到Landa却和他谈起了条件,原来Landa已有了叛变之心……
影片对白:
Landa: Tell me, Aldo, if I were sitting where you're sitting, would you show me mercy?
Aldo: Nope.
Landa: What is that English expression about shoes and feet?
Aldo: "Looks like the shoe is on the other foot." Yeah, I was just thinking that.
Landa: (Speaking German) You may leave us. But stay alert outside. (Speaking English again) So you're Aldo the Apache.
Aldo: So you're The Jew Hunter.
Landa: I'm a detective. A damn good detective. Finding people is my specialty, so naturally, I worked for the Nazis finding people. And, yes, some of them were Jews. But Jew Hunter? (Snorts) Just a name that stuck.
Smithson Utivich: Well, you do have to admit, it is catchy.
Landa: Do you control the nicknames your enemies bestow on you? Aldo the Apache and the Little Man?
Smithson Utivich: What do you mean the Little Man?
Landa: Germans' nickname for you.
Smithson Utivich: The Germans' nickname for me is the Little Man?
Landa: And as if to make my point, I'm a little surprised how tall you were in real life. I mean, you're a little fellow, but not circus-midget little, as your reputation would suggest.
Aldo: Where's my men? Where's Bridget von Hammersmark?
Landa: Well, let's just say, she got what she deserved. And when you purchase friends like Bridget von Hammersmark, you get what you pay for. Now as far as your paesanos, Sergeant Donowitz and Private Omar...
Aldo: How you know our names?
Landa: Lieutenant Aldo, if you don't think I wouldn't interrogate every single one of your swastika-marked survivors, we simply aren't operating on the level of mutual respect I assumed.
Aldo: No, I guess not.
Landa: Well, back to the whereabouts of your two ltalian saboteurs. As of this moment, both Omar and Donowitz should be sitting in the very seats we left them in. 0023 and 0024, if my memory serves. Explosives still around their ankles, still ready to explode. And your mission, some would call a terrorist plot, as of this moment, is still a go.
Aldo: That's a pretty exciting story. What's next? Eliza on Ice?
Landa: However, all I have to do is pick up this phone right here, inform the cinema, and your plan is kaput.
Aldo: If they're still here, and if they're still alive, and that's one big if, there ain't no way you're going to take them boys without setting off them bombs.
Landa: I have no doubt. And, yes, some Germans will die. Yes, it will ruin the evening. And, yes, Goebbels will be very, very, very mad at you for what you've done to his big night. But you won't get Hitler, you won't get Goebbels, you won't get Goring, and you won't get Bormann. And you need all four to end the war. But if I don't pick up this phone right here, you may very well get all four. And if you get all four, you end the war tonight. So, gentlemen, let's discuss the prospect of ending the war tonight. So, the way I see it, since Hitler's death or possible rescue rests solely on my reaction, if I do nothing, it's as if I'm causing his death even more than yourselves. Wouldn't you agree?
Aldo: I guess so.
Landa: How about you, Utivich?
Smithson Utivich: I guess so, too.
Landa: Gentlemen, I have no intention of killing Hitler and killing Goebbels and killing Goring and killing Bormann, not to mention winning the war single-handedly for the Allies, only later to find myself standing before a Jewish tribunal. If you want to win the war tonight, we have to make a deal.
Aldo: What kind of deal?
Landa: The kind you wouldn't have the authority to make. However, I'm sure this mission of yours has a commanding officer. A general. I'm betting for...OSS would be my guess. (Exclaims) That's a bingo!
