:47:00
No, I've got to run.
:47:01
You're on the right track, Charlie.
:47:05
- Sir?
- Yes, Charlie?

:47:08
Sir, I get the feeling
a man could get killed making this movie.

:47:12
A lot of men are going to get killed
on D-day, Charlie.

:47:14
I would like to be relieved
of this assignment, sir.

:47:17
Seems like a lot of risk to take
for no particular reason.

:47:20
I'm ordering you to make
this film, Commander.

:47:23
That's reason enough.
:47:25
Seems to me, sir,
the only thing at stake here...

:47:28
is a matter of naval public relations.
:47:30
No, Commander. What's at stake here
is the essence of military structure...

:47:34
the inviolability of command.
:47:36
I've given you an order.
:47:38
You'll obey it, or I'll have you brigged.
Is that clear?

:47:41
Yes, sir.
:47:51
What do we do now?
:47:56
I don't know what Marvin's going to do...
:47:58
I'm going back to the office
to cut your orders.

:48:00
What orders?
:48:01
Orders authorizing you
to transfer unattached personnel...

:48:04
to your photographic unit.
:48:05
Come on, Bus. I'm not going to make
any silly movie.

:48:08
There are no unattached photographic
personnel. I've already checked.

:48:11
So you report to me about that next week.
:48:13
Then I'll cut you new orders,
flight orders...

:48:15
pay orders, temporary duty orders.
:48:17
Before I finish cutting orders
for this movie, the war will be over.

:48:20
- Do this my way, Charlie.
- I don't like it. It's devious.

:48:22
You've already tried
the forthright frontal assault...

:48:25
nearly got yourself court-martialed...
:48:26
stripped of your commission...
:48:28
sent to the Arctic Circle
to do polar research.

:48:31
Man, you don't tell two-star admirals
you don't approve of their orders.

:48:34
Now you're on the Admiral's brig list.
:48:36
I'll assign you to Exeter, Portland
or some other channel ports...

:48:39
for the purpose
of making preliminary investigations...

:48:42
And you just stay
out of the Admiral's sight.

:48:46
I'll assign Emily as your driver,
and you just have yourself a vacation.

:48:50
Now, do this my way.
:48:58
A nutty situation, Marv?
