Question: Anyone know what Beni said to Rick? I'm referring to what he said (I'm assuming Hebrew) before Rick said "What did you say?!" followed by "I'm not gonna tell you" by Beni.

Answer: Beni: As long as I serve him, I am immune. Rick: Immune from what? Beni: Piszkos állat [this is Hungarian for "filthy animal," an insult directed at Rick]. Rick: What did you say? Beni: I don't want to tell you. You'll just hurt me some more.

But how come he speaks Hungarian throughout the movie? Is he portrayed as a Hungarian in the film?
Beni is shown to speak many languages, as evident when he is confronted by the mummy and tries to pray to different religions.

Beni was a native Hungarian, but he was multilingual.
