Maxfield Pick up the rifle, Hook. And get to it! I'll make a soldier of you yet.
Hook And what for? Did I ever see a Zulu walk down the City Road? No! So what am I doing here?
Maxfield You're here because you were a liar, a coward, and a thief. Now you can be a soldier- like what they pay you for.
Lt. Chard Thank you, for what you said.
Lt. Bromhead Hm? Oh, you mean about our needing you? Don't bother, old boy, it's true.
Colour Sgt. Bourne Sir, sentries report the Zulus have gone. All of them! It's a miracle.
Lt. Chard If it's a miracle, Colour Sergeant, it's a short chamber Boxer-Henry point-four-five caliber miracle.
Sgt. Bourne And a bayonet, sir, with some guts behind it.
