Good night, sir.
- Ah. How are you? - Very well. How are you?
Very well. See you next week.
Would you care for a drink?
That's very good, Mackenzie.
Very good. Go show your brother.
Hiya.
Uh, he's looking much better.
Much better.
That other one is Campbell.
He is the one who got your T-shirt.
You're a man of taste.
Mummy! Mummy!
Please, good-bye.
- Mummy! He keeps pushing me! Mummy! - Okay, stop it.
Stop it, Mackenzie.
Dr. Garrigan. Daydreaming?
Well, looking at you, Stone, I certainly hope so.
I wasn't expecting to find you here.
I thought you'd be with the president on his trip to London.
No, I'm needed here.
- I do hope the man hasn't blown up again. - Uh, what?
I was reading this article in the Times. I don't know if you've seen it.
It seems a high court judge who recently ruled against Amin has gone missing.
- Hasn't been seen for five days. - I'm sure there's a perfectly logical explanation.
Well, the thing is, we've been getting reports...
up and down the country of the same thing.
People speaking out against the regime...
just, uh, disappearing.
No. Look, if you're gonna accuse the president of something, you just come out and say it.
- All right? - I was just hoping you might be able...
to give us a little clarification.
Oh, fuck your clarifications, Stone! Fuck them.
You people amaze me.
You know, the first sign of an independent African leader actually achieving something...
and what do you do?
You spit your dummy because you can't stand the idea that he's done it without you.
I know he's maybe a little bit rough, but what do you expect?
Do you think Obote's people are sittin' around waitin' for clarifications?
Look at me.
This is Africa. You meet violence with violence.
Anything else, and you're dead.
Well, then perhaps you'd be so kind...
as to explain to me the whereabouts of Health Minister Wasswa.
What?
Well, he's, uh- he's missing too.
But, as you say, I'm sure there's some, uh...
perfectly normal explanation.
I'm, uh, having drinks later...
with the man who wrote the article.
Perhaps you'd like to join us...
and shed some light on the matter.
- Fine. I will. - All right. Six o'clockish.
- Can I help you? - Yeah, I'm here to see the health minister.
I'm afraid she's busy.
You were right.
The health minister has gone missing. Apparently, he's fled to Tanzania.
What? Jonah Wasswa?
Mmm.
It appears he's embezzled several hundred thousand pounds' worth of Ministry funds.
And some people are suggesting that he's joined up with Obote's exiles.
- I find that very hard to believe. - The man was on the verge...
of sealing a major pharmaceutical deal.
Life-saving penicillin for the masses.
I should know. I set up the meeting with his South African counterpart...
at, um, the Holiday Inn.
So, this embezzlement- is it on the record?
- Yes. Yes, it is. - And I can quote you in the paper?
- I'm sorry? Quote me? - Not directly, of course.
As a government spokesman.
Government spokesman?
Aye.
Mr. President.
I've come to say good-bye.
I'm going home.
Mr. President?
Boo!
I got you. I got him.
Nicholas, meet my body double, Wzenga.
Look at him. Everything the same.
Except- What do you say, Nicholas?
Is he as handsome as me?
- No. No, he's not. - Aha! You see?
You see? Nicholas agrees. You are much more ugly than me, Wzenga.
Look, look, look, Nicholas. I have others also.
All part of Captain Masanga's plan for my security.
Clever, huh?
Yeah.
Nicholas.
My Nicholas.
What is all this about your going home?
Hmm?
We-
You once told me that you respected me...
'cause I wasn't afraid to speak my mind.
Mmm. Speak.
It's this business with Wasswa.
I can't-
It fucking stinks. And I can't help coming back to that moment...
when I asked you to talk to him.
Look, this isn't me.
I have to go home now.
You cannot.
What?
Your work is not finished here yet.
But I didn't come here to finish anything.
You promised to me...
that you would help to build a new Uganda.
You swore an oath.
The oath is, um-
It's- It's a doctor's oath of confidentiality. We all take it.
- It's got nothing to do with Uganda. - Huh?
Nothing? Nothing comes from nothing.
You have a conscience.
I know you do.
That is why you came here in the first place.
Or are you like all the other British?
Just here to fuck and to take away.
No.
- No. - No.
Why else would I trust you with my family?
You are like my own son.
I'm Nicholas Garrigan...
and I'm from Scotland.
That's my home. I want to go-
Your home is here.
Please.
Just, please-
Do not be a silly boy.
If you go now, what will they think about you and, uh, Jonah Wasswa?
What are you talkin' about? I said- I said talk to him.
Do not pretend to yourself that you did not know.
You are a stronger man than that.
I didn't want him to die though.
But you-you did it.
- Why? You want to know why? - Mm-hmm.
You did it because...
you love me.
You have stepped deep into the heart of my country.
Uganda.
Uganda embraces you.
Nicholas.
What you need is to have some fun.
Hey, Nicholas. Where have you been?
- I want you to meet Betty. - Betty.
And this here is her sister Joy.
- Joy. - Hello.
- Joy is going to look after you this weekend.
Joy-
- All right. - All right.
And now, let the games begin.
Yes.
Nicholas. You did not know we had Ugandan cowboys, eh?
Finance Minister.
Come here.
All right.
Can I have another whiskey, please?
Well, let me tell you, Nicholas, you've chosen a fine life.
You want to kill me for that drunk, silly man?
Nicholas. Nicholas.
Dr. Garrigan.
Jesus fucking Christ, you look so lovely.
You know something? I shouldn't be here.
I should be in Scotland with my dad.
I should be looking after little old ladies, 'cause- 'cause here I've fucked up.
Kay, I fucked up. I fucked up.
Uh-uh, uh-uh. Not here.
- Walk with me. - What?
Walk with me.
- I'm fucking doomed. - Watch your head.
You know he's got go-go dancers after me now?
Where are we going?
I don't know.
Nicky?
Oh, shit! It's the go-go dancer.
- Oh, uh- uh- - Nicky?
In here. In here. Come on.
Just follow me. Up here.
Shh! Shh!
You be quiet. Shh!
Oh, fuck it.
He has always been like this.
He just chose not to show you until now.
Nicholas.
You have to find a way to get out.
He still listens to me.
He cannot trust anybody anymore.
I'll wait till things get really bad.
They are... really bad.
Huh?
What?
- Nothing. - What?
I just had this mad image of me and you sittin'...
at my mother and father's dinner table.
Oh.
"More stew, Mrs. Amin?"
Nicholas.
You've got to get out.
To the lake! Everybody to the lake! President's order!
Everybody to the lake! To the lake!
- What is going on? - President's order!
- I don't know. - What if somebody saw us?
Okay. You just wait two minutes and then come out after me, all right?
Yeah.
Go, go, go, go.
Shit.
Dr. Garrigan.
It's 4:00 in the morning.
Can I have a word with you?
- Whiskey? - Okay.
They've, uh-
They've taken my passport.
You were saying that if there was ever anything you could do-
I need to get out of here while I still can.
I was hoping you might be able to help in that.
- Please. - "Please." It's a nice touch.
Mmm.
Have you any idea what's going on in this country, Dr. Garrigan?
Some.
In the countryside, they're not even bothering to dig graves anymore.
They're simply feeding them to the crocodiles.
Right here in Kampala, right under our noses...
he's wiped out the entire political opposition.
Thousands of Acholi...
and Langi tribesmen from the army.
He's hardly even bothering to cover it up anymore.
Even members of his own cabinet.
Your friend the health minister.
This man is actually trying to help his country.
Idi always seems to get it wrong, doesn't he?
Jesus fucking Christ.
Get me out of here.
You earn your passage first.
Wha-What?
You know what they're calling you?
His white monkey.
I'm his doctor.
It's not my job to judge the man.
"I'm his doctor." Is that your defense? How pathetic.
Fuck off, Garrigan.
We don't just hand out passports to chimps like you.
Particularly not chimps with blood on their hands.
Look, you, I'm a citizen, and I have rights.
Fuck your rights. You do as I say, or you don't get out of here.
You're his doctor. You have unprecedented access to him.
Obviously, we'd help you with...
anything you needed.
You want me to kill him?
Amidst persistent rumors...
of human rights violations and economic mismanagement...
the situation in Uganda has deteriorated badly in recent months.
The opening of 10 new hospitals has had to be deferred...
and all the rest of them-
But getting any definite information on the country...
has become harder and harder. President Amin has accused...
the British government of attempting to assassinate him and undermining him-
And so his policies are growing ever more unpredictable.
The British government has broken its promises to Uganda.
Because of this, I have decided to expel...
all Asians from this country.
And these people, they are leeches.
They milk the cow...
but they do not want to feed the cow.
No longer. They have 90 days to leave.
They are too sick to leave.
Take your hands off him!
This is a sick man. How dare you!
I don't care where you get your orders from!
You cannot come into a hospital and start shoving people!
They are forcing us to leave!
Whoa!
This is a hospital!
You get your men out of here now!
I'm complaining personally to the president.
You all right?
I'll see to this.
You're trying to help your people. I understand that.
But Uganda isn't ready, sir.
You expel the Asians now, this economy will be on its knees.
Not to mention the damage you'll do to your reputation abroad.
Is that what you came here for?
To plead...
for your fucking Asian tailor?
These things do not concern you.
You are nothing but a doctor.
You are a nobody.
Get out.
Get out!
Sarah! Sarah!
- Hello? - Oh, I can't believe-
What have we done?
Who? Kay, is that you?
He is going to kill us, Nicholas.
He's going to kill us.
I have to get it out of me.
He will kill me, Nicholas.
I have to get it out.
- What are we going to do? - I don't know.
I want you to do it.
Please. You're a doctor. I know you can do it.
- I know you can do it, Nicholas. - No, we can't!
I can't do that!
This isn't some simple procedure.
It has to be done under clinical conditions.
I have to- If you don't do something now, I'm going to have to find a place to go.
I'm- I'm going to have to get it done in one of the villages. Is that what you want?
No. No, you don't.
Come here. Whatever you do, you don't do that.
All right?
I'm gonna sort something out. Just...
promise me you'll stay in the house.
Please promise me you'll stay in the house.
P-Promise me this-
Promise me this is going to be all right.
I promise.
We'll do it first thing in the morning.
- Kay Amin? - Mm-hmm.
- The president's wife? - Yes.
No. No, no, no.
- We couldn't do that here. Not at Mulago. - Why not?
It's the president's hospital! He's bound to find out.
- We could do this discretely, Tommy. - No!
He would kill her and us. It's too much to risk.
What other choice does she have?
Some-Some backstreet job in a village somewhere?
Come on, Thomas. You know what that means.
It's the only choice you've left her.
But I don't expect it crossed your mind to wonder, huh?
A white man with a black woman.
What does she need with such things?
Fine.
I'll do it myself.
The president wants to see you now.
My head is exploding!
I- I can't think! I can't sleep!
Look at this! Look at this!
The British newspapers say I am a madman.
The American newspapers say I am a cannibal.
I am a cannibal, huh? Huh?
These are lies!
I should throw them out for good.
Only Ugandan press from now on.
- Do you want something for the headache, sir? - No.
- Something to help you sleep perhaps? - Later.
I want you to tell me what to do.
You want me to tell you what to do?
Yes. You are my advisor.
You are the only one I can trust in here.
You should have told me not to throw the Asians out in the first place.
I did.
But you did not persuade me, Nicholas.
You did not persuade me.
Huh?
Tell me what to do here.
Don't throw the journalists out.
They're only gonna write more lies about you.
Invite them to meet you face-to-face.
You charm them.
You show them what kind of a man you are.
Hmm.
You think this will work?
I think that's the Amin they need to see.
Thank you.
Thank you very much, Nicholas.
What would I do without my Nicholas, huh?
What would I do without my Nicholas?
Is there something going on here?
- Huh? - No.
No.
- No. - Is there?
- No. - Huh?
- No. - Are you sure, Nicholas?
Yes.
Give me a booster.
Something to make me feel strong again.
- Sir. - Where are you going, Nicholas?
I have, uh, something that I have to attend to.
Uh-uh. No.
You have to stay here.
I need you for the press conference.
This is all very well, Your Excellency, but what about the reports of mass killings?
Who have you been talking with? The British?
Go. Look around Uganda for missing people.
Go anywhere you please.
So why would the British spread these rumors?
Yeah?
Because... they hate me...
because I refuse to recognize South Africa-
a racist regime that they support.
Also, they are jealous of me.
Why?
Because while they are starving with their strikes and with their protests...
the people of Uganda are eating beef and driving big cars.
I have-
I have created the Save Britain Fund.
We Ugandans, we like to help our friends. So, the Ugandans have got together...
and saved three tons of food and vegetables...
for their friends in England.
Because they are having economic difficulties, let me assure you here.
Kay?
It's Nick. Kay, it's okay. It's Nick.
- What? - She went to the village.
We had to take her to hospital.
It's been reported that you've crowned yourself the last king of Scotland.
Yes. My good friends, the Scottish people...
have seen how I have defeated the English here...
and they want me to do the same for them there.
Yeah, her. This woman here.
Did you "wrote" the queen of England, offering yourself as a lover?
You- You- You are- You are very cheeky.
And this is what happens when you betray the president.
This is what happens when you betray him.
I'm not turned off to sex.
I enjoy it. I could spend the rest of my life getting laid.
There should be more to it than a lot of little tingles.
They say she has a clitoris halfway down her throat.
Is this possible... medically?
Oh, yeah.
Almost all aberrations of nature are possible.
I made an example of her...
because she betrayed me.
I brought you those headache pills that you asked for.
Good.
Is there anything else?
No. No, that's all.
Then go.
We are busy here.
Uh-huh. Allô?
Good morning.
Come on.
- Shit. - Hello?
- Yes? - Come on.
Yes, sir.
Nicholas, there you are!
- Were you trying to run away from me? - No. No.
- Huh? - No.
I need you at the airport right away...
- to help me with the hostages. - H-Hostages?
Yes. An Air France aeroplane has been hijacked by our Palestinian brothers.
They have landed here at Entebbe.
The eyes of the world are on Uganda today.
Come, Nicholas. To work.
How many passengers?
250?
And how many of them are Zionist?
And, uh, television?
Plenty of television cameras?
Mmm. Yes. Tell them to take the hostages to the terminal building.
- Mr. President, the press is waiting for you, sir. - All right.
I wanted to assure you that the hostages will get the best medical care.
I have made my own doctor available.
Doctor? Doctor, what's the situation here?
We've one woman with a heart condition.
She's already gone to hospital. A few cases of shock.
And we're giving malaria pills to everyone.
- Okay, who's not been seen by a doctor yet? - I haven't.
- We haven't. - How many of you are there?
- I haven't, please. - You neither?
- You've not been seen yet? - Malaria pills. How is everybody doing?
Thank you very much.
Okay. Um, okay. Anybody else?
Okay. Take these three.
The nurse is gonna come round with water. Nurse?
Thomas? Thomas, can you take these, please?
- All right. - Just be two minutes.
Just take one. Malaria pills. Thank you.
Stop! Don't!
Spit.
Look at you.
Is there one thing you have done that is good?
Did you think this was all a game?
"I will go to Africa...
and I will play the white man with the natives."
Is that what you thought?
We are not a game, Nicholas.
We are real.
This room here-
it is real.
I think your death...
will be the first real thing...
that has happened to you.
Listen to me, Nicholas.
Listen. I know.
Yes.
I know about you and Kay.
How could you do that to me?
I am the father of this nation, Nicholas.
And you have most grossly...
offended your father.
You're a child.
That's what makes you so fucking scary.
In my village...
when you steal...
the wife of an elder...
they take you to a tree...
and they hang you by your skin.
Each time you scream...
the evil comes out of you.
Sometimes it can take three days...
for your evil to be spent.
Pull him up.
Good evening.
I have good news.
The Israeli government has agreed to negotiate.
So, as a gesture of good faith...
all non-Israeli hostages will be released.
I have arranged, personally...
an aeroplane to come and collect you.
Yes, yes.
He'll be here when we come back.
This way, Israelis!
Israelis stay here.
They have sent a plane.
They are releasing some of the hostages.
If you go now, you will reach them before they leave.
Here. Put this on.
Why-Why are you doing this?
Frankly...
I don't know.
You deserve to die.
But dead, you can do nothing.
Alive...
you might just be able to redeem yourself.
I don't understand.
I am tired of hatred, Dr. Garrigan.
This country is drowning in it.
We deserve better.
Go home. Tell the world the truth about Amin.
They will believe you.
You are a white man.
What about you?
My fate is in God's hands.
Go. Now. Before they come back.
Thank you.
Go. Go.
I said stop!
Where is the doctor?
I don't know.
Destination Paris.
My wife-
Because many of the people who, uh, broke relations with Israel...
they are not only Muslims, they are also Christians.
This particular certain point is very important-
