Okay, so, I stab this Nazi guy, then kick the American guy in tha face, then I say... what the crap, I can't read this. I don't speak Russian! What's it say? .... "Nothing will stop us!

[Later, back at home the efficiency apartment, a phone call!]
This is it? Geez. Well if this only lasts as long as Westport, whatevah, this'll be a breeze.
