Used as a pawn, rejected and abused





Walter: Hello, Freddie.
Freddie: What are you doing, you trying to plant devices in the walls?
Walter: No.
Freddie: You're giving the paintings a headache!
Walter: No! I am not after you, I'm trying to help you. You get the commie bastard to return home to Russia, and then Florence will be yours again.
Freddie: I know you're playing me.
Walter: Maybe I am. But that doesn't mean it's not true. We all know why you came to Bangkok, so go. Get her back.

Freddie: Communist, democrat - an intriguing collusion! Fair exchange, tit for tat. Comradeship in profusion. And the appeal, partner, of this deal, partner, is we both stand to win - you and me, the lady also! Don't break her heart, partner. Just be smart, partner. Throw the game, show your love is as pure as snow in Moscow. Thank God we're so civilized, and our word can be our bond. We can turn this into friendship for life, and beyond.
Anatoly: Refugee, total shit - that's how I've always seen us. Not a help, you'll admit, to agreement between us! There's no deal, partner. Who's your real partner? Could there be just a chance that you got some heavy clients?
Freddie: That's not true, partner! how could you, partner, think I'd want to pursue any deal but our alliance?
How can you only think of your selfish ambition and not of her position? Or you'd rather perhaps see her world collapse for a bullshit competition!
Anatoly: I am not going back to Moscow, and I am not throwing the match. Tell the CIA, or Molokov, or whoever the hell you're working for, that there's no deal!

Arbiter: Freddie's move!

Freddie: Silly boy, woman who I should not have let walk out. There's no hitch that we two can't untangle or talk out. And the appeal, partner, of this deal, partner, is we both stand to win. We'll bring back the golden era. Stick with me, honey! Leave him be, honey! You don't know what they planned for you long ago in Moscow.
Florence: Can't you see we've moved on? I can never be with you again. I lost my soul with you.
Freddie: But I have changed, Florence. I'm a new man.

Anatoly & Florence: Who'd ever think it? Such a squalid little ending. Watching him descending just as low as he can go. I'm learning things I didn't want to know. Who'd ever guess it? This would be the situation. One more complication should be neither here nor there. I wish I had it in me not to care.
Anatoly: Let him spill out his hate till he knows he's deserted. There's no point wasting time preaching to the perverted.

All: Who'd ever guess it? No one makes the moves intended, till the game has ended. Then they say I told you so. I'm learning things I didn't want to know.

Freddie: Please come back to me. I love you.
Florence: You can't even love yourself. You're incapable of love.

Arbiter: Everybody's playing the game, but nobody's rules are the same.
All: Nobody's on nobody's side.
Florence: Never be the last to decieve.
All: Everybody's playing the game, but nobody's rules are the same. Nobody's on nobody's side!
