A scene from Enemy Mine 1985

Davidge. I will teach you the Jeriba line.

Before or after breakfast?

It is an honour I offer you.

I'm sorry. Right now just stayin' alive's honour enough, huh?

All right. I will learn your lineage. Let us begin... with your parents. Who were they?

My dad's name's Carl. My mom's name's, uh, Dolores.

And their deeds?

My dad works for a company that makes computers. And my mom, she used to be a waitress.

Waitress?

Yeah, before they got married.

And their parents?

We used to visit my grandpa’ when I was just a kid. He had this place out in the country. I think he was a farmer. And, uh, Grandma was just a good cook.

Oh. That is your lineage. Here stands before you... Willis E Davidge. Fighter pilot, son of Dolores,... who used to be a waitress,... and Carl, maker of computers,... who in their time were born of Grandpa’, possibly a farmer,... and Grandma, good cook.

You make it sound pretty thin.

It is thin. But I am honoured that you entrusted it to me. My own lineage is very rich, Davidge. Learn it from me. Allow me to do you this honour. It will be like a gift between us. Son ich stayu | Kos va Shigan || Son ich stayu | Kos va Gan || Son ich stayu | Kos va Zammis
