Well, I both agree and disagree with this. So now we’ve got the “money is money, don’t try to transcend” donw, it is time to (in the words of Revy) “turn this Nazi Party into a bloody party”. The biggest payoff was not in words, but in the sheer horror that one can see on Rock’s face as they iron this philosophy out. The salaryman lifestyle is, of course, not the ideal, but it’s much easier than that which Rev has had to lead up to this point. If Rock were to suddenly think anything less of Revy for her practical approach to the life that she’s been given, it would be over. The fact that one can go so low that they see everything in terms of money should not dehumanise them. Rock thought that the iron crosses and various Nazi medals should be returned to their heirs, without considering that people probably do not want to honour the memory of their relatives having been Nazis.Įssentially, a symbol becomes symbolic because people attribute meaning to it, clearly demonstrated by the Neo Nazis considering the submarine a glorious tomb and the pirates taking it as a treasure trove. Revy had a point about sentimentality in regards to Rock. Don’t be surprised if “Rebby” eventually becomes my standard.) (At this point you may have noticed that I’ve switched to “Revy” I read, I think at AoMM, that the name is short for “Rebecca”. Its clear purpose was the scenes shared by Rock and Revy. As a Jewish person, Benny’s family motto has apparently long been the insightful “fuck the Nazis”.ĭespite the intrusion of the Aryan Socialist Union, this episode featured only minor plot advancements. Revy and Rock infiltrate the sunken submarine while Dutch and Benny discuss their politics in regards to Nazis. Revy is not a whore, and if you treat her as such you can be damned sure that’s the last treatment you’re ever going to perform.Īnother fine episode, but we’re not done with the Neo Nazis yet.
