**SPOILER INSIDE!** [size=2]ok, so the whole thing happens, movie was fucking awesome. i loved it. wonderful. anyway, when the cop thats about to get killed, is talking to the guy (max cohen from Jackie Brown) telling him who Slevin the horse was; he says there’s a new cop in town. his last name is something that in hebrew means bad dog, which the guy repeats. what was the significance of the cop? who is that?

> [@Coldaccord](#): > > no i know, but the whole reason he says kalevra or whatever is because its some new cops last name. where does that come in? It’s slevins fake last name. Slevin = horse Kelevra = bad dog bruce willis = good cat The cop that recognizes the name is an old former cop that hangs around and tells stories to the rookies. The old cop is the one who said that Kelevra was hebrew for bad dog. The cop just reconizes the hebrew word. I’ve watched this movie a few times… ---

i got all that, i must have misunderstood (my roommate must have too cause he posed the question first). we thought the cop mentioned slevra or whatever as being a new cop to the force. which i didnt get. if he was just referring to the fake slevins last name, that makes sense ---

yes. this movie made me want her way more just re-watched that scene. the significance of the new jewish cop was just that he told the other cops what the last name meant my roommate and i both mis-heard it. ---
