:29:01
It is Miss Barnes.
:29:03
I gave him an apple.
:29:05
It was the first he'd ever seen.
:29:09
And then we became friends.
:29:16
- Here, lady, you'd better sit down.
- No.

:29:24
- What happened?
- The Japs came into Balintawak.

:29:28
He was not a brave man.
:29:31
He was too terrified even to speak.
:29:33
But when they ordered him
to haul down our flag...

:29:37
he could only shake his head.
:29:40
And then they hanged him...
:29:44
in the schoolyard,
in the presence of his pupils.

:29:49
It was a bad thing to look at.
:29:58
I am Miss Barnes, schoolteacher.
:30:01
- Who are you and what is your rank?
- Col. Madden, ma'am.

:30:04
Colonel, is it? Then I'm sure you'll know
what must be done.

:30:08
When you attack the village, I want you to
attend especially to the Japanese Captain.

:30:12
- It was he who gave the order.
- We're not attacking the village.

:30:15
You're an American, are you not?
:30:18
It was your flag he refused to lower,
not his.

:30:21
The village isn't much out of our way.
:30:23
Our only chance of getting to
the gasoline dump is by surprise.

:30:25
- Yes, but...
- The moment we'd attack that village...

:30:28
the whole countryside
would be on the alert.

:30:30
I'm thinking of 70,000 men on Bataan.
:30:34
How do you fellows feel about it?
:30:37
We think you're right.
:30:39
Are you proposing
to leave this crime unavenged?

:30:41
We fight for the Philippines,
not for revenge.

:30:44
- Bernessa?
- Yes, sir?

:30:46
- We're moving out immediately.
- Yes, sir.

:30:48
You stay here with Miss Barnes.
You'll find food and blankets in the lean-to.

:30:52
- Take good care of her till we get back.
- Take care of her, indeed.

:30:55
- Do you think I'd stay here for a moment?
- You can't go back to the village.

:30:59
Furthermore, young man,
I am not accustomed...
