Safe in Hell1931
Lawyer Jones:
[Mr. Bruno, the island's executioner, has just joined them] How's tricks?
Mr. Bruno - the Hangman:
There are no tricks in my business. When a man hangs... he hangs.
Lawyer Jones:
What a satisfactory way to get rid of one's enemies.
Mr. Bruno - the Hangman:
I *have* no enemies.
Gen. Emmanuel Jesus Maria Gomez:
No "living" enemies, eh, Se?or?
Mr. Bruno - the Hangman:
As jailer and executioner of this island, I may not be popular with the criminal element. But my activities are confined to island crime. While we do not believe in the international law of extradition, our own laws are very strict. But as long as you behave yourselves here, you are safe from both jail and gallows... "safe in hell."
