RUIZ: Take it easy.
Nice steady flame.

There you go,
you got it.

Come up on your pressure
a little.

Slowly, slowly.

Level off.

Level off!

Cut the flame,
cut the flame!

Hey, damn!
What are you doing, man?

�Que te pasa?
Esta loco.

Oh, mama.

What's the matter with you?
Are you crazy?

I guess that's what
they mean

by the scorched-earth
policy.

I will
talk to him.

Real warm guy.

Well, he's drawn
a tough assignment here.

These guys have just been
drafted by the militia,

and most of them

have never even
held a gun before.

That's why we call them
rough puffs.

I hear you.

You know, uh, LT,

I don't mind
this training and stuff,

but if we could move
the graduation ceremonies

back a couple of days--
No can do.

The Army has spoken,
in its infinite wisdom.

I'll talk to you
tomorrow morning, sergeant.

I'm looking forward
to that.

Looks like he's giving
the kid a pretty rough time.

Yeah, the kid
nearly French-fried us, Marvin.

You guys all right?

For now,

but I'm not putting
any money on tomorrow.

We could really use
Percell and Taylor.
Yeah, man.

How come two of our best guys
are working the motor pool?

Look, two of the rough puffs
were working in our motor pool

and they got drafted
by their army.

Two of ours work the motor pool
till they get replacements.

Stupid way of doing things,
if you ask me.

The Army ain't asking.

[SIREN WAILING]

Get that hose over here, quick!
Come on, come on, come on!

Understand:
The dinks you are replacing

were good dinks.

They understood
the needs

of my little women.

Like Marie-Louise here.

Marie-Louise, sergeant?

The jeep,
soldier,

is the mother superior
of the Army.

Without her, nothing happens.

Have you got that?

Yes, sergeant.

Now, the jeep sees hard service.

When she comes home,
she's just like the rest of us.

She wants a long drink,
and a nice bath.

Now give it to her!

I want to be able to eat
my next meal

off this engine.

Yes, sergeant.
Yes, sergeant.

And I thought
all the loose wires

were out in the bush.

Hey, man, what do you
use to clean an engine?

Taylor, don't you
know anything

about vehicles?

Yeah, I know
how to drive them.

Well, expand
your horizons, brother.

You turkeys
the new guys?

Ain't he
the bright one.

You must be
some sorry soldiers

if they picked you
to replace those guys

that got drafted
by the popular forces.

Thought I'd come by
to give you

some friendly advice.

Sergeant Becktel
likes his jeeps clean.

Yeah, well, we worked
that out already.

Thanks.

Then you better
get on it.

Punk!

It'll be
a fun evening.

Ahem.

Hey, you left a 5 a.m.
wake-up call, sir.

I think I meant 5 a.m.
tomorrow morning.

Come on.
Come on.

Up and at 'em,
soldier.

Let's go!

Hi.

Hi.

So will you be back
by tonight?

I should be.

I gotta go
for a truck ride

out a couple klicks.

Then I gotta hike
with these new trainees,

drop them off
at the first checkpoint,

shake their hands,

say, "Congratulations,
you're on your own.

Now go stop a bullet."

Oh, Myron, stop.

I'm serious.

These guys are undertrained,
they're underequipped.

You should see
these poor peasants.

They're right
out of the ville.

Their sergeant thinks
he's General Patton.

I'm doing a story

on a ville
near Phu Long.

I'll probably see
some of them today.

You didn't say anything
about that last night.

Well, we--
We got kind of busy

last night.

We did?

Mm-hmm.

What'd we do?

The ville was relocated,

but some of these people
refuse to go.

Their ancestors
are buried there.

It's a perfect example
of how these people

keep their traditions alive
in spite of the war.

There's fighting
close to Phu Long.

No, it's not
that close.

Besides, there's
a civic action squad there.

It's fine.

How are you going to get there?

Uh, chopper.

McKay.

Yeah.

You have a problem
with that?

You've just been running up
a hell of a bill with this guy.

He likes me.

Well, I don't blame him,

but I don't think
I like the way you're using him.

I'm doing my job,

which is to get out
to that ville.

Besides, nobody gets used
who doesn't want to be.

At least nobody
with a smile like his.

That's it. Come on!

I can smile too.

Plasma kit,
blood expander kit.

Didn't I already give you guys
some of those?

We lost them.

I have chloroquine.
I'm up to my ears in it.

The problem is the malaria
is resistant to it.

What my patients need
is dapsone.

SEYMOUR:
No, I'm sorry,
you're not hearing me.

Chloroquine
just doesn't work.

Hey, try to keep an eye
on this batch.

ANDERSON: Try to keep
an eye on this batch.

All right, go slip this
to that Tran kid,

and let's hope
he speaks enough English

to follow
directions.

Catch y'all later.

SEYMOUR:
I don't have time for this.

Do me a favor,

and save your confessions
for the chaplain.

I have three patients
with malaria

who need dapsone.

Now, how do I get some?

Call Mr. Pilchowski
right now, in Saigon,

and tell him to expect me.

I'll handle you later.

Whew!

Remind me never to get
in your way.

We got short-changed
on malaria drugs,

so Supply sends my share

to the surgical unit.

Because
psychiatric patients

can't possibly have
any physical problems.

Motor Pool,
this is Dr. Seymour.

I want a jeep, a driver,

and a body.

I'm going into Saigon,

and don't argue with me.

Thank you.

Congratulations.

You just discovered
how to deal with the Army.

Which is?
Yell at them.

Sorry, it gets
a little frustrating

around here sometimes.

I can appreciate that.

What are you
doing here, anyway?

I thought today
was Operation Babysit.

Well, the popular forces'
first aid kits

were half-empty.

And even though they're not
part of our Army,

I thought
they deserved more

than a roll of gauze
and a handful of APCs.

So, me and my buddies
have been scarfing up

a few medical supplies.

I figured the doctors
wouldn't mind

helping out
our allies.

Don't tell me
these things, Zeke.

Be careful.

I don't know
any other way.

[SPEAKING VIETNAMESE]

GOLDMAN:
Well, I'm really excited

about taking those guys out
for the first time.

ANDERSON:
Come on, LT,
Sergeant Vinh looks

like a good soldier
to me.

Being a good soldier

and whipping those draftees
into shape

are two different things.

[SPEAKING VIETNAMESE]

Anything you want
to add to that, LT?

Ah, I think he about
covered it.

LT.

Here.

So I can flirt with you
on the way.

Oh, Johnny,
knock it off.

Not a chance.

So how long will we be
on the ground in Phu Long?

About a half an hour.

Not exactly
in-depth journalism, huh?

Well, at least you'll be
well-dressed.

That's for you.
I got it in Tokyo.

It's silk.

A lot of little worms
gave their all for that.

Thank you. It's lovely.

What's the occasion?

No occasion.

That's how I always think
of you: in red silk things.

[LAUGHING]

Well, a guy can dream,
can't he?

Five'll get you 10, Johnson.

Half these guys are reporting
straight to Uncle Ho.

The other half just won't
be there if we need them.

Give them a break, Ru.

How big a break, huh?

[SPEAKING VIETNAMESE]

Long day, LT.
It's a long day.

[GRUNTS]

GOLDMAN:
Take the safety off!

[SHOUTING]

Green Wizard,
this is Bravo-2-6, over.

Receiving small arms fire.

Will assess the situation
and advise.

[SPEAKING VIETNAMESE]

Get back here!

Man, I knew
they'd punk out on us.

[SOLDIER SHOUTS INDISTINCTLY]

GOLDMAN: Anderson!

In the tree!
In the tree!

[SPEAKING VIETNAMESE]

GOLDMAN:
Hold your fire!

ANDERSON:
Hold your fire!

SOLDIER:
All clear!

No thanks
to those rough puffs.

In the bush,
two o'clock!

[GUNSHOT]

That was the last one.

GOLDMAN:
Hold your fire!

Sergeant, you look surprised.

Haven't you seen

a simple flanking
maneuver before?

Yeah.

Your guys are as crazy as ours.

Yeah!

[TROOPS CHEERING]

Mr. Pilchowski?

Uh, you must be Dr. Seymour.

That's right.

Lenny Pilchowski.

Where is my dapsone?

Very much my fault.

Um, see, we're a French company,

and, um, well,
it takes a while sometimes

for a product like dapsone
to be approved by the Army.

I've been getting it
every month.

Well,
that's because

I know it works better
than chloroquine,

so I've been sending it
to the base for our guys.

You know,
kind of on the sly.

Let no man say that
Mrs. Pilchowski's son

is not a patriot.

I guess
I came in here

with the wrong
attitude.

May I?

Thanks.

Uh, just take this
down to Shipping

and they'll fix you right up.

Thank you, Mr. Pilchowski.

I'm sorry,
I had no idea that you were

going out on a limb
for us.

Uh, it's Lenny, and, uh...

And it's really
no problem.

I'm usually much more
organized than this.

Mm-hmm.

I've had a lot
on my mind recently.

Marion and I haven't
been getting along.

I'm sorry.

I hate saying this
about her,

but, uh, I'm afraid
she's taking me for granted.

God, I hope this doesn't
make me sound too petty,

but I saw her
with someone else.

I mean, you're a shrink,

you understand
these things, right?

I try.

You could
do me a favor.

Would you have lunch with me?

Lunch?

Yeah, while the guys
load the truck.

See, uh,
Marion has lunch

at the same place
every day,

and if she saw me chowing down
with a broad of your stature...

Get it?

I'm beginning to.

Great.

I don't know what
she sees in this yutz.

I mean,
the guy's got no style.

Do you really need that
for lunch?

Oh, I always carry this.
It goes with the jacket.

Do you like this?

CIA guy gave it to me.
It's what they wear.

It's lovely.

Go around
to the back

and take care
of this.

Mr. Pilchowski and I
are gonna have

a quick lunch.

Fool's wearing
a CIA jacket.

I thought she was gonna nail
that guy's hide to the wall.

Guess that's why
she didn't.

Hey.

It's payback time,
Taylor.

Let's get
those guys.

Hold it, bro.

They're out of
our weight class.

That never stopped me
before. Come on!

Yeah, I got
a better idea.

Just back me up.

Shine 'em, boy.

Those ain't
no paddy-daddy shoes.

Don't mind him, son.

They're probably
his first pair.

Your boy want
to finish the job?

You know how to
do this, don't you?

[SOUTHERN ACCENT]
Yes, boss, I do.

[NORMAL VOICE]
But not as well as I know
how to drive a jeep.

Brother Atwood, I do believe
we've been challenged.

You prepared
to lose enough

to, uh, make this
interesting?

Not money.

Let's make it
real interesting.

You know,
ever since I met you,

I've had a vision of you
polishing my ride.

Losers handle

the entire motor pool
detail for a week.

From out
to the supply warehouse

to the airlock highway
and back.

You're on.

Just remember:

It ain't the jeep,
it's the driver.

That was real smart.

Have you seen how
he handles his jeep?

You can bet he knows
how to drive.

Yeah, but does he know
when to slow down?

Remember
that sharp curve

about a mile out?

Taylor, you are evil.

Yeah.

All right.

Stack them
over here.

Just put them
with the rest of them.

DEVLIN:
All the faces here
have the same expressions.

It might be resignation,

or perhaps they're beyond
feeling even that.

Lady, lady!

Whoa!

Hi, there.

You American?
I like American!

Thank you.
What's your name?

Give it back to her.

This is my friend, okay?

Sorry, lady.

Now, there's some rice
and sheet plastic

in the chopper for you guys.

No cigarettes?

Stop hustling me,
Henry.

[SPEAKING VIETNAMESE]

Henry?

He wanted
an American name,

so I gave him one.

Where are his parents?

Dead.

Five years, he thinks.
He's not sure.

The whole gang's orphans.

But they're babies.
How do they live?

Oh, they get by.

The other villagers
help them out,

me and the guys bring them
what we can. Come on.

MAN:
There's enough
for everybody.

Here you go.

Lady, okay
we take?

Yeah.
Yeah, it's okay.

Go ahead,
take it.

What do they want
with boxes?

They use the cardboard
to line their sandals,

when they have sandals,

or they sell it
to somebody else

so they can line
their sandals.

Do you have
another run to make?

Yeah.

Pick me up afterwards.
I want to stay here.

Alex, you've seen
all there is to see.

No, I haven't.

I want to
spend some time

with these kids.

I want to write their story.

[ENGINE REVVING]

Come on, boys.

Let's do it.

[SHOUTS IN VIETNAMESE]

[���]

[SHOUTS IN VIETNAMESE]

Coming up!

They don't see it.

That's right! Yahoo!

Oh!

Man, look at this!

Sarge
is gonna kill you.

It's not my fault.
I didn't know.

[CACKLING]

Don't step
in the water.

You'll mess up
your shine.

Yeah, boys,
y'all be good.

We got to go.

Hey, Tran,
let me give you a hand.

Ah, I've had bug bites
worse than that.

He doesn't
speak English.

Yeah?

Well, tell him
he ain't hurt that bad,

and you guys did okay.

[SPEAKS VIETNAMESE]

You guys take
this souvenir hunting

serious, huh?

Those aren't
souvenirs,

and my men
are not thieves.

Ruiz!
Let me take this.

Yo, Ru.

Yo.

Couple of things
you got to know, buddy.

Like what?

They aren't hunting
for souvenirs.

Then why did they take
all that stuff, sarge?

They stripped those guys
naked, man.

Ruiz, they need it.
V.C. uniforms?

Come on.

They can't run around
in those.

The women cut the material up
into clothes for the kids.

That's a shame.

Yeah, it is a shame.

And they don't like
having their noses rubbed in it,

and that's why
you're gonna apologize.

Sarge, come on. I don't--

Ruiz, just do it.

I never had much problem
handling women.

Not that
I'm not selective,

but I guess they like
what I'm selling.

And who am I to argue?

I'm not much
for arguing, myself.

There was this one
difficult law student,

though.

But my mother
fixed me up with her,

so I don't really
count that.

Unless you think
that I should?

No.

[GUNSHOT]

He's gonna kill me!

He's gonna kill me!
The gun!

The gun.

SOLDIER:
All right, everybody,
stay back!

Stay back, now.

Ma'am...

It's okay now.

It's all over.

[UPBEAT ROCK PLAYING OVER
HELICOPTER SPEAKERS]

Farmer Boy,
this is Blue Velvet, over.

Farmer Boy,
this is Blue Velvet.

Somebody answer me,

or I start biting my nails,
over.

[MUSIC STOPS]

You didn't
see me do this.

Got it.

Alex!

Alex!

The civilian correspondent's
missing.

I'm commencing search. Over.

MAN [ON RADIO]:
Oh, that's a negative,

Remain in the vicinity.
Do not land.

I have no support for you
at this time.

You're breaking up bad.

I can't understand
a word you're saying. Out.

Looks like we hit
the checkpoint.

I'm gonna take
a break here with you

and then
we'll be on our way.

You're doing
an excellent job.

[SPEAKING VIETNAMESE]

Well, LT, they've done
real good, real professional.

Yeah, well,
they better keep it up,

because after lunch
they're on their own.

Are we expecting
anybody?

No. Scotty?

Throw that antenna up.

McKAY:
Red Dog, this is Blue Velvet.
Over.

Blue Velvet,
this is Red Dog.

What the hell
are you doing here? Over.

You seen any good friends
wandering through the woods?

Over.

Negative.

What do you mean
by that? Over.

I see an LZ about half a klick
your November.

See you there. Out.

[TRANSMISSION ENDS]

I left Alex at Phu Long.

Charlie moved in
while I was gone.

It's completely
destroyed.

Is she hurt?

I don't know.

The C.A. team bought it.

There was no sign of her,
though.

I pray to God
she got away

and made it
into the bush.

Why'd you leave her alone

in the first place?
Hey, hey, hey!

Because she asked me to.
Take it easy!

Look, if she's out there,
I'll find her.

But I've only got
one door-gunner,

so if you can
spare somebody,

I could sure use
an extra observer.

If not, I'm on my way.

We're all right
here, LT.

Why don't you just
go ahead and go?

All right,
you give me an hour,

then you take the men
back to the truck.

Let's go.

Good luck.

Your friend's gonna be
all right, ma'am,

but he ought to have
better sense

than to run around in a jacket
that says "shoot me"

to every V.C. sniper
driving by.

Is anybody gonna do
anything about him?

Truck will be by
for him.

Do you want this?

What for?

Well, you got
a little bit of blood

right here on your cheek.
Thanks.

PILCHOWSKI:
Hey, hold up.

Hey, Dr. Seymour,
that was unbelievable.

I mean, going to lunch
would have worked great,

but this gunshot wound
is dynamite.

I mean, Marion is so maternal,

this is gonna hit her
right in the ovaries.

Well, ma'am,

uh, can I give you
a lift somewhere?

Yeah, thanks.

Where's she going?

Village.
See V.C. gone.

You sent her?

She small,
harder to see her.

[SIGHING]

But, lady, we close now,
they see that.

Oh, yeah.

Safe now. We go.

All right.
Come on.

My God.

You hungry, lady?

No. No, come on.
We should leave here.

No worry
your friends not come back.

We take care of you.

Taylor, I tell you,

you really stuck it
to those guys.

Yeah.
You from Detroit?

Wheels are like feet.

You're born knowing
how to use them.

Is that all the medicine?

Yeah, they want you
to sign for it, doc.

What happened
to your coat?

You guys be careful.
She's got a mean eye.

What are you
talking about?

Lady just bagged her first V.C.

One shot.

Let's get out of here.

TAYLOR:
Ma'am, you really
don't need to do that.

We've already
gone over them.

I'm sure you did.

I just like to double-check
when it comes to my patients.

No problem.

Ma'am, do you mind
if I say something?

What I learned that you've got
to keep remembering

is that
if you hadn't gotten him,

he might have gotten you.

I'll keep that in mind.

Well...

it's all yours now.

I don't need it.

What, you know
all this territory?

I fought here
beside the French.

Yeah, well, the French

were pretty serious
fighters, all right.

But they left.
Just as you will leave someday.

And we will remain.

You mean you didn't
finish school?

Got job in motor pool.

Good job.

If you say so.

Then the army comes,
says, "You go."

So I go.

I guess some things
are the same

all the world
around, huh?

[SOLDIER SHOUTING VIETNAMESE]

[SPEAKING VIETNAMESE]

What's up?

North Vietnamese soldiers
coming up fast.

Scotty!

This far south?
It's a string.

The man said 60.

JOHNSON:
Sarge, what's happening?

NVA.

Green Wizard,
this is Red Dog.

MAN [ON RADIO]:
Go ahead,
Red Dog. Over.

I have bad guys

coming straight at us.

November-Victor-Alpha.
I need support. Over.

Negative, Red Dog.

Everything committed
south of you.

[SPEAKING VIETNAMESE]

Can you hold them
for 20?

Maybe I can free up
some artillery. Over.

ANDERSON:
That's a negative.

We'll evade and get
back to you later.

Red Dog out.

Sarge.

[VINH SPEAKING VIETNAMESE]

Vinh, what's going on?

Sergeant, you must give us
your weapons.

Whoa. What's going on here now?

[SPEAKING VIETNAMESE]

VINH:
Put your hands
on your head.

Now!

[SOLDIER SHOUTS IN VIETNAMESE]

[SPEAKING VIETNAMESE]

Sarge, we got to
make a break.

Uh-uh.
Just take it easy.

[SPEAKS VIETNAMESE]

[SPEAKS, SHOUTS
VIETNAMESE COMMAND]

[SPEAKING VIETNAMESE]

[SPEAKING VIETNAMESE]

Didi.

[SHOUTS VIETNAMESE COMMAND]

[HELICOPTER APPROACHING]

Hey!

Down here!

Down here! Down here!

Yo!

You happy, huh?

Yes. Yeah, very happy.
Very happy.

Johnny...

Johnny!

Johnny!

I-- I thought
you were out on patrol

with those trainees.

I was.

Come on.

Wait. I want
to take the kids.

They'll put us way over
the weight limit.

No! We can't
leave them here.

Henry. Come here.

You go home now?

Yeah.
And you go with me.

Chopper ride?

Chopper ride
to Saigon.

No, no, Saigon bad.
Live on streets.

No. No, we'll--
We'll find someone

to take care of you.

Me take care.

Henry, I can't
leave you here.

We stay here.

You go.

Come on.

For God's sake,
you be careful, all right?

No problem.

You do good story.
My name is spelled H-E-N-R-Y.

[SPEAKING VIETNAMESE]

You saved us.

Yes.

I told them
that you are our prisoners,

and that we would take credit
for your capture.

Hey, look, you can have credit

for anything
you want credit for.

No.

[SPEAKS VIETNAMESE]

What's going on, Tran?

He's my commander.

I'm sorry.

What's happening here? You
taking those uniforms seriously?

Are you frightened, sergeant?

Give us back our weapons now.

Yesterday, you thought
we were...children.

We're all on the same side here.

The side
that burns our villages?

Makes whores of our women?

Our guys die
right alongside yours.

Do their widows and orphans
starve to death?

What is it you hope to gain
by all this?

Respect.

I want to go back to the truck
exactly as we are now.

So everyone sees
that you had to depend on us.

You're gonna get
court-martialed.

And you're too good a soldier
to let that happen.

Maybe, but I have to point a gun
before you see it.

[SPEAKING VIETNAMESE]

They're behind us.

Put your hands up.

[SPEAKING VIETNAMESE]

[RESPONDS
IN VIETNAMESE]

[WHISPERING]
They found the bodies

where we got the uniforms.

[SPEAKING VIETNAMESE]

Go, go!

ANDERSON: Let's get
out of here.

There's too many
of them.

Go, go!
Keep moving! Go!

ANDERSON:
Let's go!

Try to make it
down to the river.

[MACHINE GUN FIRING]

All right, White Horse,
got the visual.

MAN [ON RADIO]:
Sorry we took so long,
Red Dog.

We got bandits coming in
your September.

Keep your head down.
Over.

ANDERSON:
I copy, White Horse.

Listen up. Black pajamas
are ours, do you copy?

Black pajamas are friendly.

Repeat, black pajamas
are friendly.

Leave them alone, son.

Yeah. Oh, yeah!

[SOLDIERS CHEERING]

All right.

Crazy bastard.

He was a good man,
sergeant.

Yes, he was.

Take care.

You know,
a real gentleman

would've
seen you home.

He wanted to
get back to his men.

I understand that.

How are we?

Three wounded,
one pretty bad,

but he ought
to make it.

Rough puffs did
a good job for us, LT.

But we lost Vinh.

Aw, man, that stinks.

I saw your lady
in there.

Is she okay?

She's fine.

Glad to hear it.

Feels good
to know she's all right.

I really like this one,
sergeant.

Yes, sir,
I heard that.

Hey, guys, you got

a little bit of mud
on your jeep.

Yeah, we owe you.

That's not
what your mama said.

What have you done

with this precious lady?!

Time to boogie.

Yo.

How's the motor pool, boys?

Hey, sarge.
How's it going out there?

Those guys manage

not to trip
over their own feet?

Oh, you could
say that.

Hey, sarge, uh,
when's the last time

you saw
Dr. Seymour?

I saw her this morning
before we left. Why?

Well, I tell you,
sarge,

I might be
way out of line,

I know she's a shrink and
she knows more than I do,

but, sarge,
I think she's gonna

be going through
some changes.

What are you talking about?
What happened?

[���]

This is really good, Al.

Yeah?

It's only the first part.

I'm hoping
it'll make people back home

reach for their checkbooks.

It's the only thing
I can do for those kids.

Well, it makes me
want to chip in.

Thanks.

And thanks
for what you did today.

I was just hitching a ride
on a chopper.

Yeah, to come look for me,
and you had to leave your men.

I know that wasn't easy for you.

It does mean a lot to me.

Well, you just
promise me

that you won't
do anything stupid

like that
again, okay?

Promise?

No.

[KNOCKING ON DOOR]

Yeah?

It's me, Zeke.
Can I come in?

Sure.

How did it go today?
Everybody get back okay?

Yeah, fine. How are you?

Fine.

I talked to Percell and Taylor.

Oh, yeah.

That was something else.

But at least we got the dapsone.

Come on, come on, talk to me.

There's really nothing to say.

I... I killed him.

When we were little,
my father used to make us all

learn how to shoot.

And I remember the thing
that always scared me,

it wasn't the bullets.

It was the sound.

And the funny thing is...
I fired the gun,

and I don't remember hearing it.

I didn't hear anything today.

All I can see are his eyes.

[VOICE CRACKING]
I'm all right.

No, you're not.

You're a long ways
from it now.

I'm all right,
I-- I just...

[SIGHS]

I run around urging people

to learn how
to face their feelings,

and I'm just having
a little trouble facing mine.

Jennifer, when a soldier
comes to you

and says he feels like crying,
what do you tell him to do?
