“Soldier” · Season 1

In this episode: Faris (3), Darwyn (1)

[after Farik approaches an old homeless man]

HMHomeless man

[in Arabic] Feed the people of the bench.

[in Arabic] The food of one is enough for two. [in English] Please convey to the sheikh that I'm truly sorry about what happened. I made a mistake, I gave the wrong man too much responsibility.

HMHomeless man

Some are saying that perhaps we gave the wrong man too much responsibility. I know, Farik, you are a true believer and a loyal soldier. But sometimes that is not enough. You must prove to us that you're still capable, and quickly.

A man is not a Muslim until his heart and his tongue are submissive. If I fail again you can take them both.

HMHomeless man

[hands Farik a USB drive] If you fail again, we will.

[after accidentally being served pork]

CBCatherine Bishop

Darwyn, I'm sorry, I had no idea you're a vegetarian.

[eyes Gayle] I'm not, I'm a Muslim.

MBMarcus Bishop

Muslim, huh?

CCatherine

So um, I guess Muslims don't eat pork?

Goes back to the days of the Prophet, when pigs had trichinosis.

MMarcus

Well, they don't anymore, at least not the ones in Southern California.

It's more of a tradition I guess.

MMarcus

Had no idea you people had so much in common with the Jews.

CCatherine

Jim! [to Darwyn] He's kidding.

MMarcus

What? I just want to know what the big deal is!

You're a Catholic, right?

MMarcus

Uh huh.

So maybe you don't eat meat on Fridays.

MMarcus

No, I actually eat meat every day of the week. You're missing out, guy.

Well, look. You know, there's gotta be something in your life that you do or you don't do simply because you believe in it. No disrespect, but you don't cheat on your wife, right?

MMarcus

What kind of a question is that?

Because if you did, you'd be breaking the rules that you believe in.

MMarcus

No, I don't do it because I love her. If you ask me, only a member of the Taliban would compare eating pork to cheating on your wife. [grins awkwardly]

It's good to see you, my old friend.

KWKenneth Walls 'Bin Al-Waleed'

[angry] How the hell did you get in here?

You were always very smart, brother, but I was always a little smarter.

KKen

Why are you here?

I need your facility, in order to prepare for a holy reckoning.

KKen

It's a military target?

Well, we're not at war with the American military. We're at war with America, period. And we're gonna win that war by convincing enough Americans through the spread of fear, insecurity and terror to change their ways. And and the best way to teach that lesson is by attacking them where they live. Work and play.

KKen

Still the same. Just like back in Bosnia. I don't know what book you were reading from then and I don't know what book you're reading from now, but killing women and children, it's not permitted in the holy Qur'an!

He gave me no other choice. We'll put him in one of the diesel drums, burn his body.

IKIlija Korjenic

[disapproving] He's shahid. He died for his beliefs, as will we. We must give him a proper burial.
