"while the idea of further distorting my beautiful face does appeal to my masochistic side, I would rather not loose any more teeth, but at the same time are we sure we want to leave the mules alone? my guns alone weigh nearly a ton and I don't fancy carrying all of John's used underwear, bones might say that crazy bastard wouldn't attack mules but he didn't see the guy" Russo looks away and shudders a little
"He was cold Richard, that wasn't a man anymore, an I wouldn't be able to say what that thing wouldn't do, he spoke to me. asked me what I was doing here, called me an animal, in Italian would somebody out here know how to speak italian? I don't think he's who Bones thinks he is, not anymore by any rate. I say somebody has to stay and guard the mules. I just don't want it to be me" he says getting up stiffly grunting with pain and hobbling off in the direction of Loader and the others
[spoiler]perhaps Russo is reading a bit too much into his last encounter[/spoiler]
