Desiree Armfeldt:
Hello, mother.
Madame Arnfeldt:
To what do I owe the honor of this visit?
Desiree Armfeldt:
I just thought I'd pop out and see you both, is that so surprising?
Madame Arnfeldt:
Yes.
Desiree Armfeldt:
You're in one of your bitchy moods, I see.
Madame Arnfeldt:
If you've come to take Fredrika back, the answer is no. I do not object to the immorality of your life; merely to its sloppiness. Since I have been tidy enough to have acquired a sizeable mansion and a fleet of servants, it seems only common sense that my granddaughter should reap the advantages of it. Isn't that so, child?
Fredrika Arnfeldt:
I really don't know, Grandmother.
Madame Arnfeldt:
Oh, yes, you do, dear.
Ripper:
Jack, what kept you? Andy here's been getting nervous. I promised him you'd come. Gave him my word of honor he could watch you die. Lose the cannon.
Jack Slater:
Has he hurt you Andrew?
Ripper:
Hurt, Jack? You say hurt? What do you know about hurt, Jack? You put me in a cage for ten years.
Jack Slater:
You should've gotten the death penalty.
Ripper:
Yeah, shoulda, woulda, coulda, yeah, yeah, yeah, right. Things crawling around in your head. Sitting on my chest when I wake up. You know what that's like, Jack? It was your illegal search, that rendered the bloody axe inadmissible. Remember, Jack? Now lose the gun. [Jack puts his gun on the ground]
Jack Slater:
Alright, I'm unarmed.
Ripper:
Just one gun, Jack? You gotta be kidding. [Jack removes nearly a dozen guns]
Ripper:
That all, sport?
Jack Slater:
Yup, that about does it. [pulls out grenade]
Jack Slater:
Oh, unless you consider this a weapon. [throws grenade at Ripper's feet]
Ripper:
Brilliant, Jack. Brilliant. I surrender.
Jack Slater:
It's a live grenade.
Ripper:
Yeah right, Jack, right right right. You're gonna sacrifice your own child to get to me. I'm very flattered, Jack, but I doubt it. Andy, pick up the grenade. [Andy slowly picks up the grenade]
Ripper:
Come on. Show it to me. That's good. Jack, that toy, can't hurt the boy. [flashes Axe]
Ripper:
But this one can.
Irwin Blitzer:
Come on, Kurt, what you're doing here is wrong, and you know it! Now if this is about you and me, let's lay it all down now. All right, sixteen years ago, I made the biggest mistake of my life: I cheated. I was stupid. I embarrassed myself, I embarrassed my country, my friends, my family, my teammates, [points to Kurt]
Irwin Blitzer:
and my coach. Hey, if it's revenge you want, take it. Go ahead, disqualify me, banish me! Do whatever you want, but do it to me! It was me who let you down, Kurt! It wasn't my guys! They've done everything you've asked of them! And they did it with all of you laughing in their face. Hey, it doesn't matter tomorrow if they come in first or fiftieth. Those guys have earned the right to walk into that stadium and wave their nation's flag. That's the single greatest honor an athlete can ever have. That's what the Olympics are all about. Sixteen years ago I forgot that. Don't you go and do the same.
Ripper:
