#4 I think this needs a Brian Keith Graphic,

Police Chief Link Mattocks: Tell the Captain he's under arrest.
Lieutenant Rozanov: But I...
Police Chief Link Mattocks: Tell the Captain he's under arrest!
Lieutenant Rozanov: [speaking in Russian] The policeman says you are under arrest.
The Russian Captain: [laughing and speaking in Russian] Tell him that I'm going to blow this town to pieces!
Police Chief Link Mattocks: [to Rozanov] What did he say?
Lieutenant Rozanov: [in English] Well, he's angry, yes. He says, "you stupid idiot," he will blow up the town.

Police Chief Link Mattocks: [to the Russian sub captain after tell him he's under arrest] All right, let's have your name and address.
Lieutenant Rozanov: [translating in Russian] We wants our address.
The Russian Captain: [in Russian to the sailors] Point your gun... take aim right between their eyes!
