Gabriel: “再找一次。” Aaron: “我... 我找不动了。”

这一集是关于Aaron和Gabriel的,他们在为社区寻找食物的路上屡屡受挫。每找一回,他们都面临令人想要放弃的苦楚,但,他们仍要举步前行。我也感觉这集里以一颗装进膛的子弹进行俄式转盘赌博的一幕,是一段精彩的演绎。那颗子弹会分裂他们吗,甚至毁掉他们原有的样子吗?这是让我感到非常有趣的一集,剧本的编写引人共鸣,所以,在这个意义上,通过我们这两位主角眼中的视角,这一集绝对展现出很多内容。他们跋涉而来,所经之处是这么令人感伤,感伤这世界遍布疮痍,以至于不管你去哪儿,不管你看什么,都是毁灭的画面,但仍然,也还是有美丽的事物在其中。他们看到这成为烧焦骸骨的一家,也看到花儿在骸骨上蜿蜒生长。

Aaron: “我想我女儿,我知道你也想你女儿。”

在他们目之所及的各种场面里,家被一遍遍地重复。且你会想,对于他们两个,这真的会影响他们的一些处世之道,如何继续过活。作为Alexandria的头领们,确保他们家园的安全,对他们两个变得是那么的重要。我们有意把这集做的有趣一些。我想,你知道,我的编剧,Jim和Eric,在平衡他们所处环境的严肃性与他们彼此的诙谐轻佻上,做的非常精彩。

这所有的情景之下,他们并肩同行,想要达成的目标一致,且能彼此取笑一下,且还能自嘲一下。我认为,来点背道而驰的感觉,像是你在这集里看到的某种黑暗的东西,这真的很重要。这集主要内容的一部分是,这两个人,他们喝醉了,我想,感觉像是,那真的,真的是人本性的冲动。正像现实世界里我们正在历经的瘟疫中一样,像是,人们想要寻求一个能够从中摆脱出来片刻的地方。这二人开始对一些他们正在思索的东西诚实起来。Seth Gillam(Gabriel扮演者)把这段独白表演的很精彩,一气呵成。一般人很难像他这样一口气演下来,片场上,就这样地,贯穿表演始终。他抓到了在那个情境下所有的应有的小细节,且你真能看得出那时那刻他头脑中的想法。

Gabriel: “我再也不想布道了。” Aaron: “为什么?” Gabriel: “你真认为这世界正在变回跟过去一样吗?”

这是一个我认为已经走了好长的路的人(Gabriel)。且所以,看到他在对于信仰和人与人的关系之于他的意义上身心疲惫,这真的让人觉得,有点宽慰;但他也说:“我觉得那不关我的事儿了。”

Gabriel: “恶人并不是对于规则的例外,他们本身就是规则的一部分”

这是一个大胆的论调。且我认为一度上Gabriel可能已经开始那么做了。但看到他自己里面,也在别人里面的黑暗,我觉得他内心的一部分在想:“或许我没有资格担当上帝的使者,因为我不相信我能在他的造物中再看到善良了”

Mays出现了,还拿着一把大枪,你知道,这可是Robert Patrick,能请他来演让我们这么,这么激动。饰演这个角色且表现出该角色的凶险恐怖对他来说很轻松,他就是能把那种你一眼就看得出不好招惹的煞气给演出来,太棒了。Mays想让他们玩这种俄式轮盘赌博的游戏,但当你以看到该集的结尾,你会知道显然这是一个让他弟弟也玩这游戏的人,且弟弟开枪打死了他自己的家人,然后,被当犯人关起来,似乎就这样度过余生。从Mays的角度来看,人的天性就是为了能让你作为一个个体活着而去做自私的事情。他对这一点深信不疑:当他把抢拿给这两个看上去要好的两个人时,他们最终会把枪口转向对方。Mays有点像是,像是,在观察这个事情,随后因为情况并没有朝他预想的方向发展而变得愈发沮丧。这撕裂了他的整个世界观。

Gabriel: “为了证明人有多邪恶?这就是你想要的?你认为我会射他,或者他会射我?”

在他(Mays)心里,你知道,他认为Gabriel依赖这这本书,这本他认为很蠢的圣经,作为精神支柱。但对于Gabriel,他从圣经里领悟到的是“有光在那里”。无论发生何事,无论有多黑暗,仍有神启在那里。(注:该句中的光与黑暗出于圣经经文,此处翻译仅供参考)

Gabriel: “我们能帮你!” Mays: “我不相信你”

Gabriel说的是实话吗?其实完全就是虚张声势。所以,我们或许再也无法知道Gabriel到底是不是笃信他所讲的。所以,或许Mays是对的,因为Gabriel撒了谎,而且杀了他。

英文原本:

Gabriel: ”one more.” Aaron: ”I... I can’t.”

This episode is about Aaron and Gabriel, on this grinding mission to find food for their community. At every turn, they just are faced with obstacles that make them want to stop, and yet, they have to keep going. I also feel like it’s a nice representations of, like, there’s this one bullet in the chamber for the Russian roulette scene. Is that bullet gonna be the thing that breaks them, and breaks who they are? It’s just an episode that I think has really interesting, evocative writing, in that way, so, this episode definitely has a lot in the way of these visuals that our two character see. They come across these places, and there’s just this sadness to that, that the world is so broken that, everywhere you go, what you see, are just images of destruction, but yet, there’s also beauty in that. They see this family of charred skeletons, and there’s flowers that are growing up through the skeleton. And there’s flowers that are growing up through the skeleton.

Aaron: “I miss my daughter, I know you miss yours, too.”

Family is just repeated over and over again, in these various tableaus that they see. And I think, for the two of them, this is really gonna shape some of their approach to the world, going forward. Making sure that their home is safe, becomes that much more important for both of them, as leaders of Alexandria. We intended for the episode to be funny. I think, you know, my writers, Jim and Eric, did a really great job balancing both the seriousness of some of the situations they’re in, as well as the levity that they find in that. These things are vicious, underneath all of it, they’re on the same team, they want to get the same thing done, and they can make fun of each other a little bit, and make fun of themselves a little bit. I think that that’ really important, to kind of cut against, like, some of the real darkness that you see in this episode, too. Part of the centerpiece of this episode is, these two guys, they get drunk, and I think, like, that’s a very, very human impulse. Just like the real pandemic that we’ve been living through, like, people want to find moments in there, where you can just unwind from it all. These guys start getting kind of honest about some of the things they’re thinking about. Seth Gillam does this beautiful job in this monologue. And that’s all just done in one take. It’s so hard to pull something off like that, where, just, throughout the performance, where, just, throughout the performance, he captures all these little moments that are in there, and you really get a sense of the thoughts running through his head.

Gabriel: “I don’t want to preach anymore.” A: “why?”

Gabriel: “Do you really think things are gonna go back to the way they were?”

Here’s this person that I think has come a really long way. And so, it’s really, like, lovely to see him, be vulnerable about what faith and human connection meant to him, but to also see him say, “I don’t think that’s for me anymore. ”

Gabriel: “Evil people aren’t the exception to the rule, they are the rule.”

that’s a bold claim. And I think that Gabriel might have started off in a place like that, at one point. But seeing the darkness within himself, as well as within others, I think there’s a part of him, that thinks, “maybe I’m not a worthy vessel of God, because I don’t believe that I see goodness in his creation anymore” He(MEI) comes out, and he’s got this big gun, and you know, it’s Robert Patrick, who we were so, so excited to cast. He’s just got this real easy menace about him, and the way he inhabits this role. He can just play that gravitas where you just know, from the first minute, this is not somebody to be trifled with, and that’s great. Mays wants them to play this Russian roulette game, but once you get to the end of the episode, you realize this is a guy who clearly made his brother play the same game, and the brother shot his own family, and then, was kept as a prisoner for, like, the rest of his years. From May’s perspective, human nature is to do the selfish thing that helps you survive as an individual. He fully believes that, when he gives that gun to these two guys who act like they’re friends, they will ultimately turn the gun on each other. May is kind of, like, watching this, and gets increasingly frustrated by the fact that the game didn’t go the way he thought it would. That rips apart his entire worldview.

Gabriel :”to prove how evil man is? Is that what this is about? You think I’m gonna shoot him, or he’s gonna shoot me?”

In his mind, you know, he thinks Gabriel is relying on this book, the Bible, which he thinks is stupid. For Gabriel, what he takes from the Bible is that there is light. In spite of anything else that’s in there, in spite of the darkness, there’s a message in there.

Gabriel: ”we can help you” Mays: ”I don’t believe you”

Is Gabriel even telling the truth? The whole thing was a bluff. So, we sort of don’t know whether Gabriel even fully believes the things that he’s saying anymore. So, maybe Mays is right, because Gabriel lied, and killed him.
