:54:01
This is a fucking slum.
:54:02
We take that leg,
:54:03
you're out
in two weeks.
:54:05
I want my leg.
:54:07
Why?
You can't feel it.
:54:09
It's my leg.
I want my leg.
:54:12
Can't you
understand that?
:54:13
I want to be treated
like a human being.
:54:16
I fought
for my country.
:54:18
I'm a Vietnam veteran!
:54:19
I fought
for my country!
:54:21
Shut the fuck up!
:54:23
I should
be treated decent!
:54:26
Vietnam don't mean
nothing to me, man,
:54:28
or any of these other people.
You got it?
:54:32
You can take
your Vietnam
:54:34
and shove it up your ass,
you hear?
:54:37
No! I don't
need this!
:54:39
Hey, you fuck!
:54:41
Hey, goddamn you!
:54:43
Goddamn it.
:54:45
I am a fucking
Vietnam veteran!
:54:49
This isn't--
:54:50
Marvin!
:54:51
Marvin, now!
:54:52
Marvin!
:54:53
What's up?
What's up?
:54:54
Marvin, look!
:54:55
Oh, fuck!
:54:56
It's off.
:54:57
It ain't
going to work.
:54:59
Start!
:54:59
Washington,
get the doctor.
:55:01
Wait a minute.
:55:02
OK. Yeah.
All right. I will.
:55:05
How you doing, Eddie?
:55:06
Let's see what's
wrong with this.
:55:08
They tell me if we don't
get this pump working,
:55:11
they'll cut my leg off.
I want my leg.
:55:14
Do we have another pump?
:55:16
It's the only one, Eddie.
:55:18
Ron. It's Ron Kovic.
:55:19
Sorry, man. Ron.
:55:21
You-- You are a doctor?
:55:23
It's the Vietnam war.
Cutbacks.
:55:25
The government's not giving us
the money we need
:55:28
to take care
of you guys.
:55:30
We're doing our best.
It's really too bad.
:55:33
It's not fair.
:55:34
I've tried hard
to keep this leg.
:55:37
I've been strapped in
this bed for four months
:55:39
so I could
keep this leg.
:55:42
Maybe I can rig up
a substitute.
:55:44
I'll look in the basement
and see what we got.
:55:48
You're coming back?
:55:50
Soon.
:55:51
Let go, Ron.
Let go.
:55:55
We really did try
to help Mr Kovic.
