S Soldier
Slitting a little girl's throat is like a warm knife through butter.
[to the soldier]
Put the knife away, and shut your mouth.
[to Aris]
I love listening to your little piss ant soldiers trying to talk tough, they make me laugh. If Matrix was here, he'd laugh too.
Arius My soldiers are patriots.
Your soldiers are nothing, Matrix and I could kill every one of them, at the blink of an eye - you remember that.
Arius Are you trying to frighten me Mr Bennett?
I don't have to try. When Matrix finishes the job, he'll be back for his daughter - no matter whether she's dead or alive, it doesn't matter. Then he'll be after you, and the only thing between Matrix and you... is me.
Arius I think it is you that is afraid Mr Bennett, you are afraid of Matrix.
Of course, I'm smart. But I have an edge, I have his daughter...
[John Matrix, fully restrained in chains, comes out of sedation from being tranquilized. Bennett, Sully, Henriques, and despotic former dictator Arius are staring down at him]
Tranquilizers. I wanted to use the real THING!
Arius [Matrix discovers Arius]
You remember me, Colonel?
I remember you, scumbag! Especially the people you've tortured and killed!
Arius Colonel Matrix, you do not understand a country like Val Verde. It is a country that needs a president who has an understanding of discipline.
Arius Because you're going to return to Val Verde and you are going to kill the president that you helped to overthrow me.
Why don't you have Bennett do it? Sounds like something he would get off on.
Arius Because President Velasquez trusts you, Colonel. After all, he made you the hero of the revolution. Why, Captain Bennett left, shall we say, uh, under a cloud. Yes?
Yeah, 'cause he enjoyed killing a little TOO much.
Arius You can get close to President Velasquez. You will kill him. You know, Colonel, we went to a lot of trouble to find you. We had to pretend Captain Bennett's death so that General Kirby would become agitated and lead us to you, and now that I have you, you will do exactly as I tell you.
