Let me tell you
about winds.

against which the Fellahin
defend themselves with knives.
And there is a,
a Ghibli from Tunis.
- A Ghibli?
- A Ghibli.
Which rolls and rolls
and rolls and produces a--

has flown as far as
the south coast of England,

Ridiculous

Unforgivable!
Damn!
The flare!
Stop!
Over here!
Here!
- Stop!
