I was the last one to enter the
courtroom this morning. I was late.

1:14:07
I was late because
I was in the head.

1:14:10
And I was in the head
because... I was throwing up.

1:14:16
And I was throwing up
because I don't know if I'm...

1:14:18
able to handle this job.
1:14:26
I believe that Colonel Childers
is innocent of these charges.

1:14:31
I just don't know if I have what
it takes to make his case for him.

1:14:34
I'm simply not on the same page
as Major Briggs, uh...

1:14:37
Major Biggs here,
as a lawyer.

1:14:41
We all know that.
1:14:44
So why did I take
this job?

1:14:52
I took this case because
Terry Childers told me...

1:14:55
I would have done the same thing
he did if I'd been in his shoes.

1:15:00
I took the case because I know Terry
Childers. His word is his bond.

1:15:03
He told me he did
what he had to do.

1:15:07
Now, I hope
I don't let him down.

1:15:13
We sent Terry Childers out
on a very tough mission.

1:15:17
And when it went bad,
1:15:19
and he did everything he could
to save the lives of his marines,

1:15:23
save the lives
of the embassy people,

1:15:26
you turn around now and want
to blame the whole mess on him,

1:15:32
send him to prison possibly
for the rest of his life.

1:15:36
That's not fair.
1:15:39
It's not right.
1:15:43
It is what made me sick
this morning.

1:15:47
It was a large crowd.
1:15:49
There was a lot of commotion.
The noise was very unsettling.

1:15:53
But it was
a peaceful crowd.

1:15:55
That is, until Colonel Childers
arrived and prevented me...

1:15:58
from pursuing
further avenues of diplomacy.
