"Come here, over here under the light."
In this scene, Norm asks Ahmed to step under the light so he can be seen properly. Here, we see the disturbing way in which Norm believes he is in a position to tell Ahmed what to do, illustrating his racist views. In this scene, Ahmed does what Norm says, which again emphasizes this frightening dynamic, while also suggesting that Ahmed is non-confrontational.
"You seem to possess a most humanitarian outlook on life."
In this passage, we can see how Buzo's use of language contributes to characterization. While Norm communicates using colloquial language and often uses slang, Ahmed is very articulate and intelligent.
