:47:00
You're disgusting!
:47:02
I'm not answering any questions,
all right? Get out of here. Go away.

:47:05
You fucking baby killer!
:47:08
Fuck you!
:47:12
Who the fuck are you
to spit on this uniform? Huh?

:47:31
You ever play blackjack, Colonel?
:47:33
Not really.
:47:37
There are no intangibles.
It's all odds, sir.

:47:41
You know them, you'll beat
the guy next to you.

:47:44
You know what cards have been
played, you'll beat the house.

:47:49
Sometimes you just can't win
no matter what you do.

:47:54
I saw your man on television
knockin' some zit-faced kid around.

:47:58
You have to understand the kind of
pressure Childers has been under.

:48:00
A man with that kind of service...
No, no thanks.

:48:03
This was a rescue mission
that went bad. Nothing more.

:48:06
You're aware, Colonel,
we could ask for the death penalty.

:48:08
You're not serious.
:48:10
Oh, I'm very serious.
In fact, it's been suggested.

:48:12
What do you think would happen
ifa Yemeni killed 83 Americans?

:48:16
He'd have a trial
that would last for one day,

:48:17
and they'd take off his head.
:48:19
Have a seat, Colonel.
:48:22
Please.
:48:29
So here it is.
You plead him out. Guilty.

:48:31
He throws himself at the mercy.
:48:33
- We'll help him out at sentencing.
- How much help?

:48:36
I'm not about to promise you
anything, but I'd say...

:48:38
in the neighborhood of ten
to fifteen, out in seven.

:48:41
Major,
:48:42
do you know what the life expectancy
was for a second lieutenant...

:48:45
dropped into a combat zone
in Vietnam in 1968?

:48:48
I don't have time
for 20 questions, sir.

:48:51
Then what's all this shit about
the odds of winning at blackjack?

:48:53
You got time.
Take a guess.

:48:58
My guess is your man's going down
'cause he deserves to go down.
