:04:00
National Command Authority's
duly impressed.
:04:02
They've given us the go-ahead
on phase two.
:04:04
You know what?
:04:05
You should come to D.C. And make
the presentation to the senators.
:04:09
That's how Admiral Rickover
got things done.
:04:12
Admiral. You get my meaning?
:04:14
No, I'm flattered,
but you do the lobbying.
:04:17
Politics is for politicians.
:04:19
- Captain?
- I'll get back to you.
:04:23
There's Popsicles in the cooler.
:04:25
- Got any grape?
- Any grape?
:04:27
I believe there is one left,
and don't lose your dignity.
:04:30
Oh, thank you.
:04:33
- All right, take a seat.
- Nice catch.
:04:35
Talk to me. Where are the holes?
How can we improve?
:04:39
Come on. I'm not a patient man.
:04:41
Sorry, I got caught up on
that west wall. I had to pull out...
:04:44
War is a team sport.
:04:46
Those AAA sites were thick.
Gave extra time to the SAM sites.
:04:49
See, that's your answer. There really
was no room for improvement.
:04:52
Actually, what Lieutenant Wade
did was right.
:04:55
She took out their communications
and exposed their SAM sites...
:04:58
...so Henry could lay it down.
- That's what I do.
:05:00
- I mean, it was perfect.
- "Perfect. " I'll go along with that.
:05:03
Much as I hate to see that smile
of yours get any smugger.
:05:07
You blushing?
:05:10
I've got good news.
:05:11
Tell us we got a carrier,
skipper, come on.
:05:14
Affirmative.
:05:15
The USS Abraham Lincoln.
:05:17
Captain's an old classmate of mine,
Dick Marshfield.
:05:20
- I believe you two know each other.
- He was the captain I told you about.
:05:23
- Hell of a pilot in his day.
- He's black too. He's black.
:05:26
I'm also gonna be expanding
your squadron.
:05:30
On the carrier, you'll be joined
by a new wingman.
:05:33
A fourth wingman?
:05:35
Wait, I thought there were only
three Talons in existence.
:05:39
What is the problem, Purcell?
You look like you been hit in the gut.
:05:42
For one, captain, we've been flying
together for a long time and it's good.
:05:46
And four is an unlucky number.
:05:49
- Unlucky?
- It's not a prime number.
:05:50
Prime numbers can only be divided
by one or itself.
:05:53
Three is prime. The Holy Trinity.
:05:54
Thesis and antithesis come together
and form the synthesis...
:05:57
This is not a seminar on metaphysics.
This is the U.S. Navy.
