Equarico west?

Si. I have always Had a dream to be The father of a country.

My father was the father Of a country.

My brothers were The father of their country.

Even my mother Was the father Of a country.

He thinks He's conquered us.

A radical! Why, I--

Silencio!

Show a little more respect For your provisional Presidente!

President? President?

Yes! Until it is Safe to hold free, Democratic elections.

And when will That be?

You should live so long.

[complaining]

Eh.

Mr. Thurston howell iii.

How are you?

Please be seated.

Oh, thank you. Thank you.

George here Tells me

That you are Well-acquainted With money.

Well, shall we say That money and I

Are on a first-name Basis?

Good. Our country Needs a strong Economy!

That is why I appoint you As secretary of my treasury.

What treasury?

That is your first Assignment.

Well, you see, to have A monetary system,

A country must first possess Certain rare precious Metals--

In my country All you need

Is printing press And paper.

Well, I'm afraid We don't have Either of those.

But we do have Tree bark and my Signature.

[laughs] Tree bark And your signature? Preposterous!

Suddenly it's very Posterous!

But don't overdo it.

We want to stay Underdeveloped Enough

So we can get An american loan.

Next!

Mrs. Thurston howell Iii.

Your excellency--

Oh...Thank you.

Gentlemen...Are we Going to submit

Or subvert?

I vote For subversion.

May the harvard club Have mercy On my soul.

Howell! Where do we begin?

With his gun. He's already Fired 2 shots,

Which means he has Only 4 bullets left.

Then all we have to do Is jump him,

Take his gun away from him. Yes, but someone might get hurt!

Alright. We'll use that Only as a last resort. That'll be plan "B".

Now, plan "A". Somehow, we've Got to get him

To fire off Those last 4 shots.

Oh! Oh!

Superb shot, Rodriguez! It was marvelous!

Es el presidente.

Oh, yes, yes. Mr. President,

I'll bet you a stack Full of tree bark

That you can't hit That little coral shell Right over there

With the gun.

I cannot hit the shell?

That's right. You can't hit it.

Watch.

Hey...

You think That rodriguez Es muy estupido? Huh?

Huh? You already see with one shot

That I'm a crack Sharpshooter.

Oh, of course! We know that.

Now remember, You're peasants!

Your presidente Will not take any more Of your hanky panky!

You should see me Dive for coins.

Oh...You know,

If I could learn To shoot like you,

I would have had The lead

In standing cow, Daughter of Sitting bull.

There is nothing To it.

I never heard Such nonsense.

Then what will Become of me?

You will become a member Of our little community.

You mean become One of the masses?

We don't like to think Of ourselves that way.

We're a free society,

And you will be free To do or become Whatever you want.

Anything? Mm-hmm.

Senora...

You have just Given me an idea.

You really think I should be the leader Here on the island?

It's obvious.

I was president Of the eighth grade Camera club.

You see? Even then They recognized your Leadership abilities.

That's right. Besides, I was the only One who owned a camera.

Then you accept.

I don't know. I had an awful lot Of trouble

Staying in power Of that camera Club--

Especially If I broke the camera.

But your friends Need you to lean on.

You owe it to them To protect them.

I don't know If I could handle it.

If you have any problems, My door will always Be open to you.

No, I don't think I should do it.

[tantrum sounds]

Alright!

Forget that They're your friends. Let them down.

I couldn't do that.

Without becoming Emotionally involved.
