Shaka Zulu1986

Shaka:
[their final meeting before Shaka's return to his capital, where Shaka will be assassinated by his own aunt]... Tell me - How do you catch a monkey?

Lt. Francis Farewell:
Well, a gourd is used... with a narrow neck. Bait is dropped into the gourd: a piece of fruit, or - or something shiny. The monkey puts his hand into the gourd to get the bait, and then he's trapped... because he can't get his fist out.

Shaka:
Once he realizes he's trapped, why doesn't the monkey let go of the bait?

Lt. Francis Farewell:
Because his greed makes him blind.

Shaka:
And what is he greedy for?

Lt. Francis Farewell:
What he thinks he cannot have.

Shaka:
And now - What new bait have you brought for this monkey? Something shiny? Like the freshness of youth? Or lost love?

Lt. Francis Farewell:
...Hating my people is not the answer. Together, we can find another way.

Shaka:
No. You have already proven that you were never with me. You are a shadow, a man without a nation. Go. I have no need for you anymore.

Lt. Francis Farewell:
GO? Go where? WHERE can I go?

Shaka:
Where *I* have been.
