1 00:02:55 Forward march!
2 00:04:30 I'm requesting...
3 00:04:32 Captain, I'd like to request that it be me who's the attorney...
4 00:04:37 That it be myself who's assigned.
5 00:04:40 No, I'd like to request that it be I who am assigned...
6 00:04:46 That's good. That's confidence-inspiring.
7 00:04:50 Good grammar there.
8 00:04:52 Captain, I'd like to request...
9 00:05:00 I'm Lieutenant Commander Galloway here to see Captain West.
10 00:05:02 Go right in, Commander. They're expecting you.
11 00:05:04 Thank you.
12 00:05:09 Jo, come on in. Thank you, sir.
13 00:05:12 Captain West, this is Lieutenant Commander Galloway.
14 00:05:15 Jo, you know Commander Lawrence. Yes, sir.
15 00:05:18 Captain, I appreciate you seeing me on such short notice.
16 00:05:20 Would you like to sit down? I'm fine, sir.
17 00:05:22 Have a seat. Okay.
18 00:05:25 I understand we had some trouble over the weekend down in Cuba?
19 00:05:27 Yes, sir. This past Friday, two Marines...
20 00:05:31 a Lance Corporal Harold Dawson and a Private Louden Downey...
21 00:05:35 entered the barracks room of a P.F.C. William Santiago and assaulted him.
22 00:05:39 Santiago died at the base hospital approximately an hour later.
23 00:05:43 The N.I.S. Agent who took Dawson and Downey's statements...
24 00:05:46 maintains they were trying to prevent Santiago...
25 00:05:48 from naming Dawson in a fenceline shooting incident.
26 00:05:51 They're scheduled to have a hearing down in Cuba this afternoon at 16:00.
27 00:05:55 What's the problem? Dawson and Downey...
28 00:05:57 are both recruiting poster Marines, and Santiago was known to be a screwup.
29 00:06:02 I was thinking it sounded an awful lot like a Code Red.
30 00:06:05 Christ.
31 00:06:07 Sir, I'd like to have them moved up to Washington and assigned counsel...
32 00:06:11 someone who can really look into this...
33 00:06:13 someone who possesses not only the legal skill...
34 00:06:15 but a familiarity with the inner workings of the military.
35 00:06:18 In short, Captain, I'd like to suggest that...
36 00:06:21 I be the one who that...
37 00:06:23 that it be me who is assigned to represent them... myself.
38 00:06:30 Commander Galloway, why don'tyou get yourself a cup of coffee?
39 00:06:33 Thank you, sir. I'm fine.
40 00:06:35 I'd like you to leave the room so we can talk about you behind your back.
41 00:06:38 Certainly, sir.
42 00:06:47 I thought this Code Red shit wasn't going on anymore.
43 00:06:50 With the Marines at Gitmo, who knows what the hell goes on down there?
44 00:06:53 We better find out before the rest of the world does.
45 00:06:55 Damn thing could get messy.
46 00:06:57 All right, what about this Commander Galloway?
47 00:07:00 She's been working a desk in Internal Affairs...
48 00:07:03 for a little over a year now.
49 00:07:05 Before that? Disposed of three cases in two years.
50 00:07:08 Three cases in two years? Who's she handling, the Rosenbergs?
51 00:07:11 She's not cut out for litigation. She's a hell of an investigator.
52 00:07:14 In Internal Affairs she can crawl up a lawyer's ass with the best of them.
53 00:07:17 But when it comes to trial work... I know. All passion, no street smarts.
54 00:07:21 Bring her back in.
55 00:07:34 Commander, we're gonna have the defendants moved up here in the morning.
56 00:07:37 Thankyou, sir. Division will assign them counsel.
57 00:07:41 But not me. From what I get from your colleagues...
58 00:07:45 you're much too valuable in your present assignment to be wasted...
59 00:07:48 in what I'm sure will boil down to a five-minute plea bargain...
60 00:07:50 and a week's worth of paperwork.
61 00:07:52 Sir, I think there might be more involved than that.
62 00:07:54 Don't worry about it.
63 00:07:56 I promise you Division will assign the right man for the job.
64 00:07:59 All right. Let's go. Let's get two.
65 00:08:02 Sorry. Nothing to be sorry about, Sherby.
66 00:08:05 You just look the ball into your glove.
67 00:08:07 Shooting two.
68 00:08:10 Sorry. You gotta trust me, Sherby.
69 00:08:12 Keep your eyes open, your chances of catching it increase by a factor often.
70 00:08:16 Kaffee. Let's try it again.
71 00:08:19 Dave, you seem distraught.
72 00:08:21 We were supposed to meet 15 minutes ago about the McDermott case.
73 00:08:24 You're stalling on this thing. Now we either do it now...
74 00:08:27 or, no kidding, Kaffee, I'm gonna hang your boy from a fucking yardarm!
75 00:08:30 Yardarm? Sherby, does the Navy still hang people from yardarms?
76 00:08:35 I don't think so.
77 00:08:36 Dave, Sherby doesn't think the Navy hangs people from yardarms anymore.
78 00:08:39 I'm gonna charge him with possession and being under the influence on duty.
79 00:08:43 You plead guilty, I'll recommend 30 days in the brig with loss of rank and pay.
80 00:08:47 It was oregano, Dave. It was $10 worth of oregano.
81 00:08:50 Yeah, well, your client thought it was marijuana.
82 00:08:52 My client's a moron. That's not against the law.
83 00:08:55 Kaffee, I got people to answer to just like you do. I'm gonna charge him.
84 00:08:58 With what, possession of a condiment?
85 00:09:01 Kaffee. I tried to help you out of this...
86 00:09:03 but if you ask for jail time, I'm gonna file a motion to dismiss.
87 00:09:06 You won't get it. I will get it.
88 00:09:08 And if the M.T.D. Is denied, I'll file a motion...
89 00:09:10 seeking to obtain an evidentiary ruling in advance.
90 00:09:13 And after that, I'm gonna file against pretrial confinement.
91 00:09:15 And you're gonna spend the next three months going blind on paperwork...
92 00:09:18 because a signalman second-class bought and smoked a dime bag of oregano.
93 00:09:22 Let's go! Let's get two!
94 00:09:25 B misdemeanor, 20 days in the brig.
95 00:09:28 C misdemeanor, 15 days restricted duty.
96 00:09:32 I don't know why I'm agreeing to this.
97 00:09:34 'Cause you have wisdom beyond your years.
98 00:09:40 Morning.
99 00:09:42 Morning, Captain.
100 00:09:43 How's the baby, Sam?
101 00:09:45 I think she's getting ready to say her first word any day now.
102 00:09:48 How can you tell?
103 00:09:50 She just looks like she has something to say.
104 00:09:54 Excuse me. I'm sorry I'm late.
105 00:09:56 It's all right, Danny. I know you don't have a good excuse...
106 00:09:58 so I won't force you to come up with a bad one.
107 00:10:00 Thank you, sir. This first one's for you.
108 00:10:04 Seems you're moving up in the world.
109 00:10:07 Been requested by Division.
110 00:10:10 Requested to do what?
111 00:10:12 Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.
112 00:10:14 A Marine corporal named Dawson illegally fires a round from his weapon...
113 00:10:18 over the fenceline and into Cuban territory.
114 00:10:21 What's a fenceline? Sam.
115 00:10:23 A big wall separating the good guys from the bad guys.
116 00:10:27 Teacher's pet. P.F.C. William Santiago...
117 00:10:31 threatens to rat on Dawson to Naval Investigative Service.
118 00:10:34 Dawson and another member of his squad...
119 00:10:36 P.F.C. Louden Downey, go into Santiago's room...
120 00:10:40 tie him up, stuff a rag down his throat...
121 00:10:44 and an hour later, Santiago's dead.
122 00:10:46 Attending physician says the rag was treated with some kind of toxin.
123 00:10:50 They poisoned it?
124 00:10:51 Not according to them. What did they say?
125 00:10:54 Not much. They're being flown up here tomorrow...
126 00:10:57 and on Wednesday at 0600, you'll catch a transport down to Cuba for the day...
127 00:11:00 to find out what you can.
128 00:11:02 Meantime, go and see Lieutenant Commander Joanne Galloway... with Internal Affairs.
129 00:11:09 Any questions?
130 00:11:11 Uh, the flight to Cuba... Was that 0600 in the morning, sir?
131 00:11:16 Seems important to Division that this one be handled by the book.
132 00:11:19 So I'm assigning co-counsel. Any volunteers?
133 00:11:24 I got a stack of papers on my desk about a mile high.
134 00:11:27 Work with Kaffee on this. Doing what?
135 00:11:29 Kaffee will have this done in about four days.
136 00:11:32 Doing various administrative things.
137 00:11:35 Backup, whatever.
138 00:11:37 In other words, I have no responsibilities here whatsoever.
139 00:11:40 Right.
140 00:11:41 My kind of case.
141 00:11:44 Right.
142 00:11:46 Okay, but I've got to have that report by Wednesday.
143 00:11:55 Hi. Hold on. Hi.
144 00:11:58 Daniel Kaffee. I was told to me with, uh...
145 00:12:08 Lieutenant Commander Galloway.
146 00:12:13 About a briefing?
147 00:12:14 I'll call you back.
148 00:12:19 You're the attorney Division assigned?
149 00:12:22 I'm lead counsel. This is Sam Weinberg.
150 00:12:24 I have no responsibilities here whatsoever.
151 00:12:26 Come in, please. Have a seat.
152 00:12:39 Lieutenant, how long have you been in the Navy?
153 00:12:43 Going on nine months now.
154 00:12:45 And how long have you been out of law school?
155 00:12:48 A little over a year.
156 00:12:50 I see.
157 00:12:53 Have I done something wrong?
158 00:12:54 It's just that when I petition Division to have counsel assigned...
159 00:12:57 I was hoping I'd be taken seriously.
160 00:12:59 No offense taken, in case you were wondering.
161 00:13:02 Commander, Lieutenant Kaffee is generally... considered the best litigator in our office.
162 00:13:06 He's successfully plea-bargained 44 cases in nine months.
163 00:13:10 One more, I get a set of steak knives.
164 00:13:12 Have you ever been in a courtroom?
165 00:13:14 I once had my driver's license suspended.
166 00:13:16 Commander, from what I understand, if this thing goes to court...
167 00:13:18 they won't need a lawyer, they'll need a priest.
168 00:13:21 No, they'll need a lawyer.
169 00:13:24 Dawson's family's been contacted.
170 00:13:26 Downey's closest living relative is Ginny Miller, his aunt.
171 00:13:30 She hasn't been contacted yet. Would you like me to take care of that?
172 00:13:33 If you feel like it.
173 00:13:36 One of the people you'll be seeing down there...
174 00:13:38 is the barracks C.O., Colonel Nathan Jessup.
175 00:13:40 I assume you've heard of him.
176 00:13:42 Who hasn't?
177 00:13:45 He's been in the papers lately. He's expected to be appointed...
178 00:13:48 director of operations of National Security Council.
179 00:13:50 Really? These are the letters...
180 00:13:52 that Santiago wrote in his eight months at Gitmo.
181 00:13:54 That's Guantanamo Bay. I knew that one.
182 00:13:57 He wrote to the fleet commander to the commandant of the Marine Corps.
183 00:14:00 Even his senator. He wanted to be transferred off the base.
184 00:14:03 No one was listening. Are you with me? Yeah.
185 00:14:08 Finally, he wrote to the Naval Investigative Service...
186 00:14:11 where he offered information about Corporal Dawson's fenceline shooting...
187 00:14:14 in exchange for a transfer.
188 00:14:16 Right. Is that all?
189 00:14:19 Lieutenant, this letter makes it look like...
190 00:14:21 your client had a motive to kill Santiago.
191 00:14:24 Got you. And Santiago is who?
192 00:14:27 The victim.
193 00:14:29 Write that down. Am I correct to assume these letters...
194 00:14:31 don't paint a flattering picture of Marine Corps life at Guantanamo Bay?
195 00:14:34 Yes, among... Am I further right in assuming...
196 00:14:36 investigation of this incident might embarrass the Security Council guy?
197 00:14:40 Colonel Jessup. Twelve years.
198 00:14:43 Sorry?
199 00:14:44 I'll get them to drop the conspiracy and conduct unbecoming.
200 00:14:46 Twelve years.
201 00:14:48 You haven't talked to a witness or looked at a piece of paper.
202 00:14:52 Pretty impressive, huh?
203 00:14:54 You're gonna have to go deeper than that.
204 00:14:55 Do you have some sort of jurisdiction here that I should know about?
205 00:14:58 My job is to make sure that you do your job.
206 00:15:01 I'm special counsel for Internal Affairs...
207 00:15:03 so my jurisdiction's pretty much in your face.
208 00:15:09 Read the letters. I'll expect your report when you return from Cuba.
209 00:15:12 Sure. You're dismissed.
210 00:15:17 I always forget that part.
211 00:15:21 He's a little preoccupied.
212 00:15:24 Team's playing Bethesda Medical next week.
213 00:15:27 Tell your friend not to get cute down there.
214 00:15:29 The Marines in Guantanamo are fanatical.
215 00:15:31 About what?
216 00:15:33 About being Marines.
217 00:15:35 Dear sir...
218 00:15:36 my name is P.F.C. William T. Santiago.
219 00:15:39 I'm a Marine stationed at Marine barracks... Rifle Security Company Windward, Second Platoon Bravo.
220 00:15:45 I'm writing to inform you of my problems with my unit here in Cuba...
221 00:15:49 and to ask for your help.
222 00:15:50 I've fallen out on runs before for several reasons...
223 00:15:54 such as feeling dizzy or nauseated.
224 00:15:56 But on May 18, I'd fallen back about 20 or 30 yards... going down a rocky unstable hill.
225 00:16:02 My sergeant grabbed me and pushed me down the hill.
226 00:16:05 Then I saw all black, and the last thing I remembered was hitting the deck.
227 00:16:09 I was brought to the hospital where I was told I just had heat exhaustion.
228 00:16:13 I ask you to help me.
229 00:16:14 Please, sir. I just need to be transferred out of R.S.C.
230 00:16:18 Sincerely, P.F.C. William T. Santiago... U.S. Marine Corps.
231 00:16:22 P.S. In exchange for my transfer off the base...
232 00:16:25 I'm willing to provide you with information about...
233 00:16:28 "The illegal fenceline shooting that occurred the night of August 2."
234 00:16:33 Who the fuck is P.F.C. William T. Santiago?
235 00:16:37 Private Santiago is a member of Second Platoon Bravo, sir.
236 00:16:40 Yeah. Well, apparently he's not very happy down here in Shangri-la...
237 00:16:45 because he's written letters to everybody but Santa Claus... asking for a transfer.
238 00:16:50 And now he's telling tales about a fenceline shooting.
239 00:16:54 Matthew?
240 00:16:55 I'm appalled, sir.
241 00:16:59 You're appalled.
242 00:17:02 This kid broke the chain of command and ratted on a member of his unit...
243 00:17:06 to say nothing of the fact that he is a U.S. Marine...
244 00:17:09 and it would appear he can't run from here to there... without collapsing from heat exhaustion.
245 00:17:14 What the fuck is going on in Bravo Company, Matthew?
246 00:17:18 Colonel, I think it would be better to hold this discussion in private.
247 00:17:21 That won't be necessary, Colonel. I can handle the situation, sir.
248 00:17:25 The same way you handled Curtis Bell? Don't interrupt me, Lieutenant!
249 00:17:29 I'm still your superior officer. And I'm yours, Matthew.
250 00:17:35 I wanna know what we're going to do about this.
251 00:17:38 I think Santiago should be transferred off the base immediately.
252 00:17:41 He's that bad, huh?
253 00:17:42 Not only that. But word of this letter is bound to get out.
254 00:17:45 He's gonna get his ass whipped.
255 00:17:47 Hmm. Transfer Santiago.
256 00:17:51 Yes. I'm sure you're right.
257 00:17:54 I'm sure that's the thing to do.
258 00:17:59 Wait. I've got a better idea.
259 00:18:02 Let's transfer the whole squad off the base.
260 00:18:06 Let's... On second thought, Windward...
261 00:18:09 Let's transfer the whole Windward Division off the base.
262 00:18:13 John, go on out there and get those boys down off the fence.
263 00:18:17 They're packing their bags. Tom.
264 00:18:20 Sir. Get me the president on the phone.
265 00:18:23 We're surrendering our position in Cuba.
266 00:18:26 Yes, sir. Wait a minute, Tom.
267 00:18:29 Don't get the president just yet.
268 00:18:31 Maybe we should consider this for a second.
269 00:18:34 Dismissed, Tom. Yes, sir.
270 00:18:38 Maybe... and I'm just spit-balling here...
271 00:18:42 Maybe we have a responsibility as officers to train Santiago.
272 00:18:47 Maybe we as officers have a responsibility to this country...
273 00:18:51 to see that the men and women charged with its security...
274 00:18:54 are trained professionals.
275 00:18:56 Yes, I'm certain that I read that somewhere once.
276 00:19:00 And now I'm thinking, Colonel Markinson...
277 00:19:03 that your suggestion of transferring Santiago...
278 00:19:08 while expeditious and certainly painless...
279 00:19:11 might not be, in a manner of speaking... the American way.
280 00:19:16 Santiago stays where he is.
281 00:19:21 We're gonna train the lad.
282 00:19:23 John, you're in charge.
283 00:19:26 Santiago doesn't make 4-6-4-6... on his next proficiency and conduct report...
284 00:19:33 I'm going to blame you.
285 00:19:36 Then I'm going to kill you. Yes, sir.
286 00:19:38 I think that's a mistake, Colonel.
287 00:19:42 Matthew, I think I will have that word in private with you now.
288 00:19:47 John, that's all. Why don't we meet at the "O" club and have lunch...
289 00:19:51 and we'll talk about the training of young William?
290 00:19:53 I'd be delighted to hear any suggestions that you might have, sir.
291 00:19:56 Dismissed. Yes, sir.
292 00:20:02 Matthew, sit down. Please.
293 00:20:10 What doyou think of Kendrick?
294 00:20:13 My opinion of him has nothing to do...
295 00:20:15 I think he's pretty much of a weasel myself...
296 00:20:18 but he's an awfully good officer.
297 00:20:20 And in the end, we see eye-to-eye on the best way to run a Marine Corps unit.
298 00:20:25 We're in the business of saving lives, Matthew.
299 00:20:28 That is a responsibility that we have to take pretty seriously.
300 00:20:32 And I believe that taking a Marine who is not quite up to the job...
301 00:20:36 and shipping him off to another assignment...
302 00:20:39 puts lives in danger.
303 00:20:42 Sit down, Matthew.
304 00:20:53 We go back a while.
305 00:20:56 We went to the Academy together. We were commissioned together.
306 00:20:59 We did our tours in Vietnam together.
307 00:21:02 But I've been promoted up through the chain...
308 00:21:04 with greater speed and success than you have.
309 00:21:07 Now, if that's a source of tension...
310 00:21:10 or embarrassment foryou...
311 00:21:12 I don't give a shit.
312 00:21:14 We're in the business of saving lives, Lieutenant Colonel Markinson.
313 00:21:19 Don't ever question my orders in front of another officer.
314 00:21:43 All the paperwork's in order.
315 00:21:46 Step over there. Yes, sir.
316 00:21:53 Hal, is this Washington, D. C?
317 00:21:55 All right. Let's move.
318 00:21:57 Yes, sir.
319 00:22:05 Got all of that one. Excuse me.
320 00:22:08 I wanted to talk to you about Corporal Dawson and Private Downey.
321 00:22:12 Say again? Dawson and Downey.
322 00:22:16 Those names sound like they should mean something to me...
323 00:22:18 Dawson, Downey... your clients.
324 00:22:21 The Cuba thing. Yes! Dawson and Downey. Right.
325 00:22:27 I've done something wrong again, haven't I?
326 00:22:30 I was just wondering why two guys have been locked up... since this morning while their lawyer's outside hitting a ball.
327 00:22:36 We need the practice.
328 00:22:38 That wasn't funny.
329 00:22:41 It was a little funny.
330 00:22:42 Would you be very insulted if I recommended to your supervisor... that he assign different counsel?
331 00:22:47 Why? I don't think you're fit to handle it.
332 00:22:51 You don't even know me. Ordinarily, it takes someone hours...
333 00:22:55 to discover I'm not fit to handle a defense.
334 00:22:59 Oh, come on. That was damn funny.
335 00:23:05 You're wrong.
336 00:23:08 I do know you.
337 00:23:10 Daniel Alistair Kaffee, born June 8, 1964...
338 00:23:14 at Boston Mercy Hospital.
339 00:23:16 Your father's Lionel Kaffee...
340 00:23:17 former Navy judge advocate and attorney general of the United States.
341 00:23:21 Died 1985.
342 00:23:22 You went to Harvard law. Then you joined the Navy...
343 00:23:25 probably because that's what your father wanted you to do.
344 00:23:28 And now you're just treading water for three years in the JAG Corps.
345 00:23:31 Just laying low till you can get out and get a real job.
346 00:23:35 If that's the situation, that's fine. I won't tell anyone.
347 00:23:38 But it's my feeling that if this case is handled in the same... fast-food, slick-ass, Persian bazaar manner...
348 00:23:44 with which you seem to handle everything else...
349 00:23:46 then something's gonna get missed.
350 00:23:47 And I wouldn't be doing my job if I allowed Dawson and Downey...
351 00:23:50 to spend any more time in prison than absolutely necessary...
352 00:23:53 because their attorney had predetermined the path of least resistance.
353 00:24:01 I'm sexually aroused, Commander.
354 00:24:04 I don't think your clients murdered anyone.
355 00:24:07 What are you basing this on?
356 00:24:08 There was no intent.
357 00:24:10 The doctor's report says Santiago died of asphyxiation...
358 00:24:13 brought on by acute lactic acidosis...
359 00:24:15 and that the nature of the acidosis strongly suggests poison.
360 00:24:19 I don't know what any of that means, but it sounds pretty bad.
361 00:24:22 Santiago died at 1:00 a.m.
362 00:24:24 At 3:00, the doctor wasn't able to determine the cause of death.
363 00:24:27 Two hours later, he said it was poison.
364 00:24:29 Oh, now I see what you're saying.
365 00:24:32 It had to be Professor Plum in the library with a candlestick.
366 00:24:35 I'm gonna talk to your supervisor. Okay.
367 00:24:37 Go straight up Pennsylvania Avenue.
368 00:24:40 It's the big white house with the pillars in front.
369 00:24:42 Thank you. I don't think you'll have much luck.
370 00:24:46 I was assigned by Division.
371 00:24:47 Somebody over there thinks I'm a pretty good lawyer.
372 00:24:50 So while I appreciate your interest and admire your enthusiasm...
373 00:24:54 I think I can handle things myself.
374 00:24:56 You know what a Code Red is?
375 00:25:02 What a pity.
376 00:25:15 Morning, sir. Morning.
377 00:25:18 Officer on deck!
378 00:25:20 Sir, Lance Corporal Harold W. Dawson, sir!
379 00:25:22 Rifle Security Company Windward, Second Platoon Bravo.
380 00:25:24 Someone hasn't been working and playing well with others, Harold.
381 00:25:28 Sir, yes, sir!
382 00:25:31 Sir, P.F.C. Louden Downey, sir!
383 00:25:35 I'm Daniel Kaffee. This is Sam Weinberg.
384 00:25:38 Sit down.
385 00:25:46 This your signature? Yes, sir.
386 00:25:49 You don't have to call me "sir." Is this your signature?
387 00:25:51 Sir, yes, sir.
388 00:25:52 You certainly don't need to do it twice in one sentence.
389 00:25:55 What's a Code Red? It is a disciplinary engagement.
390 00:25:59 What's that mean?
391 00:26:00 A Marine falls out of line, it's up to the men in his unit to get him on track.
392 00:26:04 What's a garden variety Code Red? Sir?
393 00:26:08 Harold, you say, "sir," and I turn around and look for my father.
394 00:26:12 Danny, Daniel, Kaffee.
395 00:26:15 Garden variety. Typical. What's basic Code Red?
396 00:26:18 Sir, a Marine refuses to bathe on a regular basis...
397 00:26:20 the men in his squad will give him a G.I. Shower.
398 00:26:23 What's that?
399 00:26:24 Scrub brushes, Brillo pads, steel wool.
400 00:26:27 Beautiful.
401 00:26:28 Was the attack on Santiago a Code Red?
402 00:26:31 Yes, sir.
403 00:26:38 Does he ever talk?
404 00:26:41 Sir, P.F.C. Downey will answer any direct questions you ask him.
405 00:26:45 Swell.
406 00:26:48 Private Downey, the rag you stuffed in Santiago's mouth...
407 00:26:51 Was there poison on it? No, sir.
408 00:26:53 Silver polish, turpentine, antifreeze?
409 00:26:55 No, sir. We were just gonna shave his head, sir.
410 00:26:58 When all of the sudden...
411 00:27:00 We saw blood dripping down his mouth...
412 00:27:03 and we pulled the tape off and there was blood all down his face, sir.
413 00:27:07 That's when Lance Corporal Dawson called the ambulance.
414 00:27:11 Did anyone see you call the ambulance?
415 00:27:14 No, sir.
416 00:27:18 Were you there when the ambulance got there?
417 00:27:20 Yes, sir. That's when we were taken under arrest.
418 00:27:22 The night of August 2, did you fire a shot across the fenceline into Cuba?
419 00:27:29 Yes, sir. Why?
420 00:27:30 My mirror engaged, sir. His mirror?
421 00:27:33 Every American sentry post has a Cuban counterpart, called "mirrors."
422 00:27:37 Lance Corporal's claiming that his mirror was about to fire at him.
423 00:27:41 Santiago's letter to the N.I. S...
424 00:27:43 said you fired illegally.
425 00:27:46 He's saying that the guy, the mirror...
426 00:27:50 He never made a move.
427 00:27:58 You see what I'm getting at?
428 00:28:01 If Santiago didn't have anything on you, then why did you give him a Code Red?
429 00:28:04 'Cause he broke the chain of command, sir.
430 00:28:06 He what? He went outside of his unit, sir.
431 00:28:09 If he had a problem, he should have spoken to me, sir.
432 00:28:12 Then his sergeant, then commander... Yeah. All right.
433 00:28:15 Did you assault Santiago with the intent of killing him?
434 00:28:18 No, sir. What was your intent?
435 00:28:20 To train him, sir. Train him to do what?
436 00:28:22 Train him to think of his unit before himself... to respect the code.
437 00:28:27 What's the code?
438 00:28:29 Unit, Corps, God, Country.
439 00:28:31 I beg your pardon?
440 00:28:32 Unit, Corps, God, Country, sir.
441 00:28:53 The government of the United States...
442 00:28:56 wants to charge you two with murder...
443 00:28:59 and you want me to go to the prosecutor... with "Unit, Corps, God, Country"?
444 00:29:05 That's our code, sir.
445 00:29:11 It's your code.
446 00:29:13 We'll be back.
447 00:29:16 You guys need anything... books, papers, cigarettes, ham sandwich?
448 00:29:19 Sir, no, thank you, sir.
449 00:29:22 Harold, I think there's a concept you better start warming up to.
450 00:29:26 Sir?
451 00:29:27 I'm the only friend you've got.
452 00:29:43 Daniel Kaffee
453 00:29:45 Smiling Jack Ross.
454 00:29:46 Welcome to the big time. You think so?
455 00:29:48 Let's hope, for Dawson and Downey, you practice law better than play softball.
456 00:29:52 Unfortunately for those two, I don't do anything better than play softball.
457 00:29:56 I'm out of here, Janelle. Bye.
458 00:29:58 See you when I get back from Cuba. Say hi to Castro for me.
459 00:30:00 Will do. What are we looking at?
460 00:30:02 They plead guilty, we drop the conspiracy and conduct unbecoming.
461 00:30:06 Twentyyears. They're home in half. I want 12.
462 00:30:08 Can't do it. They called the ambulance.
463 00:30:10 I don't care if they called the Avon lady. They killed a Marine.
464 00:30:13 The rag was tested for poison. The autopsy, lab reports. They say the same thing: Maybe, maybe not.
465 00:30:18 Chief of Internal Medicine at the Guantanamo Bay Naval Hospital...
466 00:30:21 says he's sure.
467 00:30:22 What do you know about Code Reds?
468 00:30:24 Oh, man.
469 00:30:28 We off the record? Tell me.
470 00:30:32 I'm gonna give you the 12 years.
471 00:30:34 Before you go getting yourself into trouble tomorrow, you should know...
472 00:30:37 the platoon commander, Lieutenant Jonathan Kendrick...
473 00:30:40 held a meeting with the men and specifically...
474 00:30:43 told them not to touch Santiago.
475 00:30:48 We still playing hoops tomorrow night? Do we have a deal?
476 00:30:51 I'll talk toyou when I get back.
477 00:30:57 Hi there. Any luck getting me replaced?
478 00:31:00 Is there anyone in this command you don't either drink or play ball with?
479 00:31:03 Commander... Listen. I came to make peace.
480 00:31:05 Got off on the wrong foot. What do you say? Friends?
481 00:31:09 I brought Downey some comic books he was asking for.
482 00:31:12 The kid, Kaffee, I swear he doesn't know where he is.
483 00:31:15 Doesn't even know why he's arrested. Commander.
484 00:31:17 You can call me Joanne. Joanne.
485 00:31:19 Or Jo. Yes.
486 00:31:21 Jo, if you ever speak to a client of mine again without my permission...
487 00:31:24 I'll have you disbarred.
488 00:31:26 Friends? I had authorization.
489 00:31:29 From where? Downey's closest living relative.
490 00:31:32 Ginny Miller. His aunt on his mother's side.
491 00:31:36 You got authorization from Aunt Ginny?
492 00:31:38 I gave her a call like you asked.
493 00:31:40 Very nice woman. We spoke for about an hour.
494 00:31:43 You got authorization from Aunt Ginny.
495 00:31:45 Perfectly within my province.
496 00:31:48 Does Aunt Ginny have a barn? We could hold the trial there.
497 00:31:50 I can sew the costumes. Maybe his Uncle Goober can be the judge.
498 00:31:57 I'm going to Cuba with you tomorrow.
499 00:32:01 And the hits just keep on coming.
500 00:32:27 How's it going, Luther? Another day, another dollar, captain.
501 00:32:31 You gotta play them as they lay. What goes around comes around.
502 00:32:34 Can't beatthem, joingem. At least I got my health.
503 00:32:38 Well, then you got everything. See you tomorrow, Luther.
504 00:32:42 Not if I seeyou first.
505 00:32:46 Now don't forget. When Sally gets back, you're my witness.
506 00:32:48 The baby spoke. My daughter said a word.
507 00:32:50 Your daughter made a sound, Sam. I'm not sure it was a word.
508 00:32:53 Come on, now. It was definitely a word.
509 00:32:57 You heard her. The girl sat here, pointed and said, "Pa."
510 00:33:00 She did. She said, "Pa."
511 00:33:02 She was pointing at a mailbox, Sam.
512 00:33:05 That's right, pointing as if to say, "Pa, look. A mailbox."
513 00:33:16 Jack Ross came to see me today. He offered me the 12 years.
514 00:33:19 Oh, that's what you wanted, right? I know, I know.
515 00:33:23 I mean, I guess I'll take it. I'll take it.
516 00:33:29 So... It took about 45 seconds.
517 00:33:32 He barely put up a fight.
518 00:33:34 Danny, take the 12 years. It's a gift.
519 00:33:37 You don't believe their story, do you?
520 00:33:39 You think they ought to go to jail for the rest of their lives.
521 00:33:42 I believe every word of their story...
522 00:33:44 and I think they ought to go to jail for the rest oftheir lives.
523 00:33:52 See you tomorrow. Okay.
524 00:33:54 Don't forget to wear the whites. Very hot down there.
525 00:33:57 I don't like the whites.
526 00:33:59 Nobody likes the whites, but we're going to Cuba.
527 00:34:02 You got Dramamine? Dramamine keeps you cool?
528 00:34:04 No, Dramamine keeps you from throwing up. You get sick when you fly.
529 00:34:08 I get sick when I fly because I'm afraid of crashing into a large mountain.
530 00:34:11 I don't think Dramaminewill help.
531 00:34:14 I got some oregano. I hear that works pretty good.
532 00:34:20 You know, Ross said the strangest thing to me right before I left.
533 00:34:23 He said the platoon commander Lieutenant Jonathan Kendrick...
534 00:34:27 had a meeting with the men and told them not to touch Santiago.
535 00:34:30 So?
536 00:34:33 I never mentioned Kendrick. I don't even know who he is.
537 00:34:39 Ah, what the hell. I'll see you tomorrow.
538 00:35:19 Lieutenants Kaffee and Weinberg, Commander Galloway.
539 00:35:21 I'm Corporal Barnes. I'm to escort you to the windward side of the base.
540 00:35:24 Thank you. I got some camouflage jackets here.
541 00:35:27 I suggest you both put them on. Camouflage jackets?
542 00:35:31 Yes, sir. We'll be riding pretty close to the fenceline.
543 00:35:34 The Cubans see an officer wearing white...
544 00:35:36 they think it might be someone they want to take a shot at.
545 00:35:40 Good call, Sam.
546 00:35:47 We'll just hop on the ferry. We'll be there in no time.
547 00:35:50 Wait. We gotta take a boat? Yes, sir.
548 00:35:53 To get to the other side of the bay. Nobody said anything about a boat.
549 00:35:57 Is there a problem, sir? No, no problem.
550 00:35:59 Just not crazy about boats.
551 00:36:01 Jesus Christ, Kaffee, you're in the Navy, for crying out loud.
552 00:36:06 Nobody likes her very much. Yes, sir!
553 00:36:22 Nathan Jessup. Come on in.
554 00:36:25 Thank you, sir. Daniel Kaffee. I'm the attorney for Dawson and Downey.
555 00:36:29 This is Lieutenant Commander Joanne Galloway.
556 00:36:32 Pleasure meeting you, Commander. Observing and evaluating, sir.
557 00:36:35 Lieutenant Sam Weinberg. He'll be assisting.
558 00:36:37 Sir. This is my X.O., Colonel Markinson...
559 00:36:40 and platoon leader Lieutenant Kendrick.
560 00:36:42 I've asked them to join us. Sit down, please.
561 00:36:44 Lieutenant Kaffee. Colonel Markinson.
562 00:36:47 I had the pleasure of meeting your father once.
563 00:36:49 I was a teenager. He spoke at my high school.
564 00:36:52 Lionel Kaffee?
565 00:36:55 Yes, sir. Well, what do you know?
566 00:36:57 John, this man's dad once made a lot of enemies down in your neck of the woods.
567 00:37:01 Jefferson v. Madison County School District.
568 00:37:05 Folks down there said a black girl couldn't go to an all-white school.
569 00:37:09 Lionel Kaffee said, "Well, we'll just see about that."
570 00:37:13 How the hell is your dad, Danny?
571 00:37:16 He passed away seven years ago, sir.
572 00:37:20 Don't I feel like the fucking asshole.
573 00:37:23 Not at all.
574 00:37:26 Well, what can we do for you, Danny?
575 00:37:28 Uh, not much, sir.
576 00:37:31 This is really a formality more than anything else.
577 00:37:36 JAG Corps insists that we interview all the relevant witnesses.
578 00:37:39 The JAG Corps can be demanding that way.
579 00:37:43 John will take you out and show you what you want to see.
580 00:37:46 After that we can all hook up for lunch.
581 00:37:48 How does that sound? Good. Fine, sir.
582 00:37:59 I understand you had a meeting with your men that afternoon.
583 00:38:02 Yes, I did. What did you guys talk about?
584 00:38:04 I told the men that we had an informer among us...
585 00:38:07 and that despite any desire they might have to seek retribution...
586 00:38:10 Private Santiago was not to be harmed in anyway.
587 00:38:13 16:00What time was that meeting? 16:00.
588 00:38:17 That's 4:00.
589 00:39:11 Sam, we should make sure somebody gets this to his parents.
590 00:39:14 We don't need it anymore. Right.
591 00:39:18 Lieutenant Kendrick, may I call you John?
592 00:39:20 No, you may not.
593 00:39:22 Have I done something to offend you?
594 00:39:25 No, I like all you Navy boys.
595 00:39:27 Every time we gotta go someplace to fight, you fellas always give us a ride.
596 00:39:32 Lieutenant Kendrick, do you think Santiago was murdered?
597 00:39:36 Commander, I believe in God and His Son Jesus Christ.
598 00:39:39 And because I do, I can say this:
599 00:39:41 Private Santiago is dead, and that is a tragedy.
600 00:39:45 But he is dead because he had no code.
601 00:39:47 He is dead because he had no honor, and God was watching.
602 00:39:54 How do you feel about that theory?
603 00:39:56 Sounds good. Let's move on.
604 00:39:58 Are you planning on doing any investigating...
605 00:40:00 or are you just gonna take the guided tour?
606 00:40:03 I'm pacing myself.
607 00:40:07 They were running around for three hours...
608 00:40:09 Iooking for anything white they could wave in the air.
609 00:40:12 Some of these people surrendered to a crew from CNN.
610 00:40:16 Well, walk softly and carry an armored tank division, I always say.
611 00:40:23 That was delicious. Thank you. My pleasure, sir.
612 00:40:26 Colonel, I do have to ask you a couple of questions about September 6.
613 00:40:31 Shoot.
614 00:40:33 On the morning of the sixth, you were contacted by an N.I.S. Agent...
615 00:40:36 who said that Santiago tipped him off to an illegal fenceline shooting.
616 00:40:39 Yes. Santiago would reveal the person...
617 00:40:41 in exchange for a transfer. Yes.
618 00:40:47 If you feel there are any details that I'm missing...
619 00:40:50 you should feel free to speak up.
620 00:40:56 Thank you.
621 00:41:01 Now, at this point you called Lieutenant Colonel Markinson... and Lieutenant Kendrick into your office.
622 00:41:06 Is that right? Yes.
623 00:41:08 What happened?
624 00:41:09 We agreed that, for his own safety, Santiago should be transferred off base.
625 00:41:15 Santiago was set to be transferred.
626 00:41:19 On the first available flight to the States... 0600 the next morning.
627 00:41:24 Five hours too late, as it turned out.
628 00:41:32 All right. That's all I have. Thanks very much for your time.
629 00:41:35 Corporal's waiting with the Jeep. He'll take you back to the flight line.
630 00:41:38 Thank you, sir. Wait. I've got some questions.
631 00:41:40 No, you don't. Yes, I do.
632 00:41:42 No, you don't. On the morning that Santiago died...
633 00:41:45 did you meet with Dr. Stone between 3:00 and 5:00?
634 00:41:49 Of course I met with the doctor. One of my men was dead.
635 00:41:53 See? The man was dead. Let's go.
636 00:41:55 I'm just wondering if you've ever heard the term "Code Red."
637 00:42:00 I've heard the term, yes.
638 00:42:02 This past February, you received a cautionary memo...
639 00:42:05 from the commander-in-chief of the Atlantic fleet...
640 00:42:08 warning that the practice of enlisted men... disciplining their own wasn't to be condoned by officers.
641 00:42:13 Well, I submit to you that whoever wrote that memo...
642 00:42:16 has never faced the working end...
643 00:42:18 of a Soviet-made Cuban AK-47 assault rifle.
644 00:42:22 However, the directive having come from the commander...
645 00:42:25 I gave it its due attention.
646 00:42:28 What is your point, Jo? She has no point.
647 00:42:30 She often has no point. It's part of her charm.
648 00:42:32 We're out of here. Thank you. I think Code Reds still go on here.
649 00:42:37 Do Code Reds still happen here? Jo, he doesn't need to answer that.
650 00:42:42 Yes, he does. No, he really doesn't.
651 00:42:43 Yeah, he really does.
652 00:42:50 You know, it just hit me.
653 00:42:53 She outranks you, Danny.
654 00:42:55 Yes, sir. I wanna tell you something.
655 00:42:58 And listen up,'cause I really mean this.
656 00:43:01 You're the luckiest man in the world.
657 00:43:04 There is nothing on this earth sexier... believe me, gentlemen...
658 00:43:08 than a woman that you have to salute in the morning.
659 00:43:12 Promote them all, I say,'cause this is true:
660 00:43:15 If you haven't gotten a blow job from a superior officer...
661 00:43:18 well, you're just letting the best in life pass you by.
662 00:43:24 Colonel, the practice of Code Reds is still condoned by officers...
663 00:43:27 My problem is that I'm a colonel, so I'll go on taking cold showers...
664 00:43:31 until they elect some gal president.
665 00:43:34 I need an answer to my question, sir.
666 00:43:36 Take caution in your tone, Commander.
667 00:43:40 I'm a fair guy, but this fucking heat is making me absolutely crazy.
668 00:43:47 You wanna ask me about Code Reds? On the record...
669 00:43:50 I tell you I discourage the practice...
670 00:43:52 in accordance with the commander's directive.
671 00:43:54 Off the record, I tell you it is an invaluable part... of close-infantry training.
672 00:43:59 And if it happens to go on without my knowledge, so be it.
673 00:44:03 I run my unit how I run my unit.
674 00:44:06 You wanna investigate me, roll the dice and take your chances.
675 00:44:11 I eat breakfast 300 yards from 4,000 Cubans who are trained to kill me.
676 00:44:15 So don't think for one second that you can come down here...
677 00:44:18 flash a badge...
678 00:44:21 and make me nervous.
679 00:44:27 Let's go.
680 00:44:32 Colonel, I'll just need a copy of Santiago's transfer order.
681 00:44:36 What's that?
682 00:44:37 Santiago's transfer order. You guys have paperwork on that kind of thing.
683 00:44:40 I just need it for the file.
684 00:44:42 For the file. Yeah.
685 00:44:47 Of course you can have a copy of the transfer order for the file.
686 00:44:52 I'm here to help in anyway I can. Thank you.
687 00:44:55 You believe that, don't you, Danny, that I'm here to help you in anyway I can?
688 00:45:00 Of course.
689 00:45:02 Corporal will take you by personnel on your way out to the flight line...
690 00:45:06 and you can have all the transfer orders that you want.
691 00:45:11 Let's go. But you have to ask me nicely.
692 00:45:17 I beg your pardon?
693 00:45:18 You have to ask me nicely.
694 00:45:21 You see, Danny, I can deal with the bullets and the bombs and the blood.
695 00:45:25 I don't want money, and I don't want medals.
696 00:45:28 What I do want is for you to stand there in that faggoty white uniform...
697 00:45:33 and with your Harvard mouth extend me some fucking courtesy.
698 00:45:40 You gotta ask me nicely.
699 00:45:46 Colonel Jessup, if it's not too much trouble...
700 00:45:48 I'd like a copy of the transfer order, sir.
701 00:45:55 No problem.
702 00:46:22 In the seventh. San Diego leads. Braves try to come back.
703 00:46:25 Runners don't go.
704 00:46:28 Hard drive, right field. We're gonna have a tied ball game.
705 00:46:30 It's on its way, and it is now 10 to 10.
706 00:46:34 And I don't believe it.
707 00:46:40 Who is it? It's me.
708 00:46:45 I really missed you. I was just saying to myself it's been almost three hours.
709 00:46:49 Markinson's disappeared. What?
710 00:46:52 Colonel Markinson's gone U. A... unauthorized absence.
711 00:46:55 I know what it means. When?
712 00:46:56 This afternoon. Sometime after we left.
713 00:46:59 I'll try to find him in the morning. I've already tried.
714 00:47:02 You tried?
715 00:47:05 Joanne, you're coming dangerously close to the textbook definition...
716 00:47:08 of interfering with a government investigation.
717 00:47:11 I'm Louden Downey's attorney.
718 00:47:13 Aunt Ginny. She says she feels like she's known me for years.
719 00:47:17 So I suggested that she might feel more comfortable... if I were directly involved with the case.
720 00:47:22 She had Louden sign the papers about an hour ago.
721 00:47:25 I suppose it's way too much to hope...
722 00:47:27 that you're making this up just to bother me.
723 00:47:30 Don't worry. I'm not gonna make a motion for separation.
724 00:47:32 You're still lead counsel. Splendid.
725 00:47:35 I think Kendrick ordered the Code Red, and so do you.
726 00:47:40 Let's go.
727 00:47:45 Officer on deck!
728 00:47:47 Did Kendrick order the Code Red? Sir?
729 00:47:49 Don't say "Sir" like I just asked you if you cleaned the latrine.
730 00:47:53 You heard what I said. Did Lieutenant Kendrick order you guys...
731 00:47:55 to give Santiago a Code Red?
732 00:47:58 Yes, sir.
733 00:48:01 Did he? Yes, sir.
734 00:48:09 You mind telling me why you never mentioned this before?
735 00:48:12 You didn't ask. That won't win you a place in my heart.
736 00:48:16 I get paid no matter how much time you spend in jail.
737 00:48:18 Yes, sir. I know you do, sir.
738 00:48:20 Fuck you, Harold! All right.
739 00:48:24 At ease.
740 00:48:26 Let's sort this thing out. Shit!
741 00:48:28 There was a platoon meeting on September 6 at 4:00 in the afternoon.
742 00:48:32 Lieutenant Kendrick says that he gave strict instructions...
743 00:48:34 that nothing was to happen to Santiago.
744 00:48:36 Now, is this true?
745 00:48:40 I want you to speak freely.
746 00:48:45 Ma'am, that's correct...
747 00:48:46 but then he dismissed the platoon and we all went to our rooms.
748 00:48:49 And what happened then?
749 00:48:51 Lieutenant Kendrick came to our room, ma'am.
750 00:48:53 When?
751 00:48:56 About five minutes after the meeting broke, sir. About 1620.
752 00:49:00 And what happened then?
753 00:49:03 Lieutenant Kendrick ordered us to give Santiago a Code Red.
754 00:49:09 Jack!
755 00:49:10 Hang on.
756 00:49:12 They were given an order.
757 00:49:16 Jack, come on. Be right back.
758 00:49:19 What are you doing, Jack? Be right back.
759 00:49:22 How long did you know about the order? I didn't. Who's this?
760 00:49:25 That's Jo Galloway, Downey's lawyer. She's very pleased to meet you.
761 00:49:29 What exactly are you accusing me of? How long did you know about the order?
762 00:49:32 He didn't,'cause if he did and hadn't told us... he'd be violating about 14 articles of the Code of Ethics.
763 00:49:37 He has enough to worry about...
764 00:49:39 God forbid our clients decide to plead not guilty...
765 00:49:41 and testify for the record that they were given an order.
766 00:49:43 Kendrick specifically told those men not to touch Santiago.
767 00:49:46 That's right. And then he went into Dawson and Downey's room...
768 00:49:48 and specifically told them to give him a Code Red.
769 00:49:50 Kendrick said different. Have proof? He's lying. I have the defendants.
770 00:49:53 And I have 23 Marines who aren't accused of murder...
771 00:49:55 and a lieutenant with four letters of commendation.
772 00:49:57 Why did Markinson go U. A? We'll never know.
773 00:49:59 You don't think I could subpoena him? You can try, but you won't find him.
774 00:50:02 You know what he did for the first 17 of his 26 years in the Corps?
775 00:50:06 Counterintelligence. Markinson's gone. There is no Markinson.
776 00:50:12 Look, Danny.
777 00:50:14 Jessup's star is on the rise.
778 00:50:17 Division will give me a lot of room on this one...
779 00:50:19 to spare Jessup and the Corps any embarrassment.
780 00:50:21 How much?
781 00:50:24 Involuntary manslaughter, two years, they're home in six months.
782 00:50:27 No deal. We're going to court.
783 00:50:29 No, you're not. Why not?
784 00:50:31 'Cause you'll lose, and Danny knows it.
785 00:50:34 If we do go to court, I'm gonna have to go all the way.
786 00:50:37 They're gonna be charged with a whole truckload...
787 00:50:39 murder, conspiracy, conduct unbecoming.
788 00:50:42 Even though he's got me by the balls out here, Danny knows...
789 00:50:44 that in a courtroom, he loses this case.
790 00:50:47 Danny is an awfully talented lawyer.
791 00:50:49 He's not about to see his clients go to jail for life...
792 00:50:51 when he knows they can be home in six months.
793 00:50:54 That's the end of this negotiation.
794 00:50:57 I'll see you tomorrow morning at the arraignment.
795 00:51:03 All right. Here's the story.
796 00:51:06 The government's offering involuntary manslaughter, two years.
797 00:51:11 Be home in six months.
798 00:51:15 Wow, Kaffee! You're the greatest lawyer in the world!
799 00:51:19 Ooh, how can we ever thank you?
800 00:51:22 Fellas, you hear what I just said?
801 00:51:25 You're going home in six months.
802 00:51:28 I'm afraid we can't do that, sir.
803 00:51:31 Do what? Make a deal, sir.
804 00:51:34 What are you talking about?
805 00:51:36 We did nothing wrong, sir. We did our job...
806 00:51:38 and if that has consequences, then I'll accept them.
807 00:51:42 But I won't say that I'm guilty, sir.
808 00:51:45 Did you... Did she put you up to this?
809 00:51:49 We have a code, sir. Oh, well, zip-a-dee-doo-dah!
810 00:51:53 You and your code plead not guilty. You'll be in jail the rest of your life.
811 00:51:56 Do what I'm telling you, you'll be home in six months.
812 00:52:01 Do it, Harold. Six months.
813 00:52:03 It's nothing. It's a hockey season.
814 00:52:08 Permission to... Speak!
815 00:52:10 Jesus!
816 00:52:14 What do we do then, sir? When?
817 00:52:17 After six months, we'll be dishonorably discharged, right, sir?
818 00:52:20 Probably.
819 00:52:23 Well, what do we do then, sir?
820 00:52:28 We joined the Marines because we wanted to live our lives by a certain code.
821 00:52:32 And we found it in the Corps.
822 00:52:34 Now you're asking us to sign a piece of paper that says we have no honor.
823 00:52:37 You're asking us to say we're not Marines.
824 00:52:39 If a court decides that what we did was wrong...
825 00:52:42 then I'll accept whatever punishment they give.
826 00:52:44 But I believe I was right, sir. I believe I did my job...
827 00:52:47 and I will not dishonor myself, my unit or the Corps...
828 00:52:51 so that I can go home in six months...
829 00:52:55 sir.
830 00:53:03 Commander, I'd like to talk to Lance Corporal Dawson alone for a minute.
831 00:53:10 Sergeant.
832 00:53:12 We're gonna go to another room.
833 00:53:14 We'd like another holding room. All right, ma'am.
834 00:53:17 It's gonna be okay. Sit down.
835 00:53:31 You don't like me very much, do you?
836 00:53:34 Forget it. Don't answer that. It doesn't matter.
837 00:53:43 You know...
838 00:53:46 Downey worships you.
839 00:53:51 He's gonna do whatever you do.
840 00:53:54 Are you really gonna let this happen to him because of a code, Harold?
841 00:53:59 Do you think we were right? It doesn't matter...
842 00:54:02 Do you think we were right? I think you'd lose.
843 00:54:08 You're such a coward.
844 00:54:10 I can't believe they let you wear a uniform.
845 00:54:15 I'm not gonna feel responsible for this. I did everything I could.
846 00:54:17 You're going to Leavenworth for the better part of your life.
847 00:54:20 And you know what? I don't give a shit.
848 00:54:24 What happened to saluting an officer when he leaves the room?
849 00:54:36 Open it up.
850 00:54:40 I don't believe it. I don't believe it.
851 00:54:42 Dawson's gonna go to jail just to spite me.
852 00:54:44 Fine. If he wants to jump off a cliff, that's his business.
853 00:54:47 I'm not gonna hold his hand on the way. I wanna get him a new lawyer. How?
854 00:54:51 Just make a motion tomorrow morning at the arraignment.
855 00:54:53 The judge will ask you if you want to enter a plea...
856 00:54:55 and you tell him that you want to have new counsel assigned.
857 00:54:59 That's that.
858 00:55:01 One thing, though. When you ask the judge for new counsel...
859 00:55:04 Danny, be sure and ask nicely.
860 00:55:07 What doyou want from me? I want you to let them be judged.
861 00:55:10 I want you to stand up and make an argument.
862 00:55:13 An argument that didn't work for Calley at My Lai.
863 00:55:16 An argument that didn't work for the Nazis at Nuremburg.
864 00:55:18 Oh, for Christ's sake, Sam.
865 00:55:20 Do you really think that's the same as two teenage Marines...
866 00:55:22 executing a routine order they never believed would result in harm?
867 00:55:25 These guys aren't the Nazis.
868 00:55:27 Don't look now, Danny, but you're making an argument.
869 00:55:32 Yeah, yeah. Tomorrow morning I get them a new attorney.
870 00:55:35 Why are you so afraid to be a lawyer?
871 00:55:37 Were Daddy's expectations really that high?
872 00:55:40 Oh, please. Spare me the psycho-babble father bullshit!
873 00:55:44 Dawson and Downey will have their day in court, but with another lawyer.
874 00:55:47 Another lawyer won't be good enough. They need you.
875 00:55:50 You know how to win. You know they have a case, and you know how to win.
876 00:55:54 If you walk away from this now, you've sealed their fate.
877 00:55:56 Their fate was sealed the moment Santiago died.
878 00:56:00 Do you believe they have a case? You and Dawson. You both live in the same dream world.
879 00:56:04 It doesn't matter what I believe.
880 00:56:06 It only matters what I can prove.
881 00:56:09 So, please, don't tell me what I know and don't know!
882 00:56:12 I know the law!
883 00:56:18 You know nothing about the law.
884 00:56:20 You're a used car salesman, Daniel.
885 00:56:23 You're an ambulance chaser with a rank.
886 00:56:25 You're nothing. Live with that.
887 00:56:35 So I told Duncan...
888 00:56:37 "If you wanna take this to court I'm gonna file nine discovery motions...
