This is The Hour
(The ENGINEER, in peasant clothes, is brought back to the city from a re-education camp
By THUY'S soldiers. THUY instructs him to find KIM in exchange for its freedom. The
ENGINEER tracks down KIM and leads THUY to her. Once more, she rejects his love,
Declaring that she's sworn herself to CHRIS. The enraged THUY, now the people's
Commissar, orders his soldiers to attack. They wreck the room and beat up the ENGINEER.)
ENGINEER
Are you waiting for them to kill me?
Did you not get what he said?
There's a big screw loose inside you
I will rip it out of your head
That's a mad dog on the rampage
If you think he'll change, save your breath
Just say "yes", I don't care if you love him
Princess, life has it all over death!
KIM
I have a husband I love
Real as the sun in the sky
I cannot live with a lie
THUY
Do you see now who has the power?
Do you still think crazy things?
KIM
Chris will come to me like the Phoenix
And he'll take me off on his wings
THUY
You're a traitor to your country
KIM
If I am, then let it be
KIM, THUY and the ENGINEER
I am talking of life or death now
I am talking of staying free
ENGINEER
So there it is now, it's time to move on
If you don't need me, I'd rather be gone
Two kids in love don't need strangers around
THUY
You just get out!
ENGINEER
Right! I won't make a sound
(grabs his sack and exits)
THUY
And as for you, come with me
KIM
No!
There is a secret
That you don't know
There is a force here
I never show
You say it's treason
To keep my vow
Season after season
I survived somehow
If you want the reason
I will show you now
(KIM pulls back the curtain and out runs a scared two-year old boy. KIM hugs him.)
Look, Thuy, this is my son
He has kept me alive
Now you see why
I must tell you "no"
THUY
No one must ever see
