Passengers arriving on Philippine Airlines flight 118,

welcome to Manila International Airport.

Hey.

- Hey, kid. Are you Zack? - Yes, sir.

I'm Byron. Nice to meet you.

- Come on. Let's get your bags, okay? - Yes, sir.

Take your jacket off. It's hot as hell here.

This is the P.l. It's what we call the Philippine Islands.

Zack, I'm sorry about what happened to your mom. It must've been rough.

I would have called you a lot sooner, but I was out at sea.

But I've been calling you for four months!

That's what I'm trying to tell you. I was out at sea for four months.

All right, kid. These are your mama-sans, Tiki and Maria.

Hello, Byron.

I want you to meet somebody. This is my son, Zack.

Tiki, say hello. Zack, Tiki and Maria.

Hi, Zack.

I'm out at sea three weeks out of every month.

When I'm in port, I don't have time for "daddy" stuff. That's not who I am.

- That's okay, sir. - Kid, you don't understand.

I'm too old for this. I don't care what the Navy says.

This is no place for a kid. I told you on the phone.

- You're better off in school in Virginia. - I'm never going back!

Maybe that's not for you to say! Don't look at me that way!

What happened to your mother had nothing to do with me!

It did. You said you were going to come back!

Is that what she said? That's a female lie. That's bullshit!

I found your letters. I read them after she did it.

You said you'd come back. You said you loved her.

And she believed you. You're a liar.

- Handsome. - Grow up, boy. I'll wait for you.

You want to go to school? I'll teach you nice.

Chicken feet, monkey meat. Come on, you buy.

Hey, sailor. What ship are you from?

Hey, what are you doing?

- Big spender. Give us your money! - I don't have any money.

- Bullshit, get it out! - No!

Leave me alone!

Holy shit!

- Watch it. I've got to heave. - Jesus Christ.

Give me a towel.

Pretty fucking Wild.

Holy shit!

Not as wild as when we banged three stewardesses in Manila.

Bet you didn't get it on like that in that jerkwater college you graduated from.

How long are you going to hang around Seattle?

Get ready, man. This one is going to blow you away.

Nothing you do is ever going to surprise me.

- Tell me. - I joined the Navy.

- You joined the Navy? - That's right. I joined the Navy.

I'm on my way over to Port Rainier now, this officer's training school over there.

- What for? - Jets. I want to fly jets.

It's only a couple of hours from here. Maybe you want to come visit. All right?

- Who put that idea in your head? - Nobody. It just came to me.

What's so funny?

You, man. It's like saying you're going to run for fucking president.

For Christ's sake, look at yourself.

Officers don't have tattoos.

Look, I'll see you, man. All right?

- Zack, don't be pissed off. - I'm not pissed off.

Yeah, you are pissed off. Come on. I'm on your side.

I don't want to see you do something you're going to regret.

You've got to give six years to the Navy if you want to fly.

Six years with the most uptight assholes God put on this earth.

Officers are not like you and me. They're a different breed.

This sounds like you're afraid

you might have to salute me some day, chief.

- Why would I be afraid of that? - I don't know. It sounds that way.

You want some fatherly bullshit, a pat on the back.

From you? No.

Thanks for my graduation present. See you around.

Zack, don't go away mad. Hey, babe. Zack, come on.

Zack!

Fall in!

I said, "Fall in", you slimy worms!

Put your toes on the edge of that chalk line!

I said, "Put your toes on the edge of this chalk line", you slimy worms!

Attention!

I don't believe what I'm seeing.

Where have you been all your lives, at an orgy?

Listening to Mick Jagger music and bad-mouthing your country, I bet.

Stop eyeballing me. You're not worthy of looking your superiors in the eye.

- Use peripheral vision. Understand? - Yes, sir.

Every time I say, "Understand", I want everyone to say, "Yes, sir".

- Understand? - Yes, sir!

I know why most of you are here.

I'm not stupid.

Before you can sell what we teach you over at United Airlines,

you've got to give the Navy six years of your lives, sweet peas.

Lots of things can happen in six years. Another war can come up in six years.

Are you too peaceful a person

to dump napalm on an enemy village with women and children?

I'm going to find that out.

- Understand? - Yes, sir!

Hi, son.

How are you doing, Sarge?

What did you call me?

- Pardon? - What did you call me, boy?

- I called you "Sarge". - Before that.

- Nothing. - You said, "How are you?"

I am not a "ewe", boy. A ewe is a female sheep.

- Is that what you think I am, boy? - No.

-"No, sir!" - No, sir.

- Louder, sweet pea. - No, sir!

You want to fuck me up the ass? Is that why you called me a ewe, boy?

- Are you a queer? - Hell no, sir.

- Where are you from? - Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, sir.

Only two things come out of Oklahoma.

Steers and queers.

Which one are you, boy?

I don't see any horns, so you must be a queer.

- No, sir. - Stop whispering.

- You're giving me a hard-on. - No, sir!

- Were you laughing at me, dick brain? - No, sir!

Better stop eyeballing me, boy.

I'll rip your eyeballs out of the sockets and skull-fuck you to death.

- Yes, sir! - What's your name, boy?

Mayo. Zack Mayo, sir.

How did you slip into this programme? I didn't know the Navy was so hard up.

You've got an injury there, Mayo?

Not exactly, sir.

This is really wonderful work. Where did you get this, Mayo?

Subic Base, Philippines, sir.

Thought I recognised the work.

Be proud of those wings. The only ones you'll leave here with,

"Mayonnaise".

- What's your name, boy? - Emiliano Santos Della Serra, sir.

You don't say. Are you a college boy, Della Serra?

Yes, sir. Math major, sir.

Graduated from Texas Tech with honours, sir.

Do you see this cane, Della Serra? See the notches near the handle?

There's a notch for every college puke, like you,

who I got to D.O.R., that's Drop On Request, from this programme.

And the first one I'm going to carve out of this class is you, Emiliano.

I expect to lose half of you before I'm finished.

I will use every means necessary, fair and unfair, to trip you up,

to expose your weaknesses as a potential aviator and human being.

- Understand? - Yes, sir!

The prize at the other end is a flight education

worth $1 million.

But first, you've got to get past me.

Hey, Paula! It's 5:00! Where's the goddamn whistle?

Oh, shit.

Come on, Paula. Let's go. Turn that thing off.

Next.

Now, this is my idea of an ass bandit.

Wait till some of the local girls get a look at you, scrotum head.

Do you think that's funny, Worley?

Not all the obstacles that can trip you up are on this base.

Let me tell you something about the local girls.

Ever since there's been a naval base here,

there's been what we call the Puget Sound debs.

That's poor girls coming across the sound every weekend

with just one thing in mind.

And that's to marry themselves a naval aviator.

A Puget deb would tell you, "Don't worry about contraceptives.

"I got that all taken care of. " Don't you believe a word of it.

A Puget deb would do and say anything to trap you.

I know this sounds silly to you, especially in this modern age,

but you college pukes had better watch out,

because you, sweet peas, are the answer to their dreams.

All right, hurry up! On the double now!

You lard-asses, I'm going to fix you.

Come on! Get up there! Quick! On the double, Mayonnaise!

Little-girl poopies to the left, little-boy poopies to the right.

Come on, let's go. What a motley bunch. Get in there.

All right, quick. On the double!

How's it going?

You got to be kidding. How do they expect me to get down in there?

- One of you want to switch bunks? - They are assigned.

I don't think we can.

- Who the hell is that guy? - Mom and Dad for the next 13 weeks.

All right, fall out! Get outside, on the double. Come on out here!

Quick! Quick! Quick! More! More! More!

You and you, get down and give me 50. Count them.

You think it's true what he said about those girls?

- Sure it is, sweet pea. - Still?

Should have warned you female types about Puget dudes.

They say they wear rubber, but there are holes in the bottom.

- Very funny, Mayo. - Seeger! Mayo! Worley!

If you got energy to run those sewers,

get over there and give me 50! On the double! Right now!

All right, poopie-asses, get your faces down there!

Pump them out! You women better not expect special privileges.

You think flying a plane is just sitting on a chair pushing buttons?

Looks like you need a little work in your upper-body strength, Seeger.

All right, all right. Get up. Get up!

Step out.

Get back in line. You watch. Go on!

The Lexington pilots should be in the officer's club now.

You sure got the timetable down, Lynette.

After three years, you learn all the tricks.

Did you see that bodacious set of tatas?

Hi, Mrs Ruffervvell. I brought the records the social committee asked for.

You're pissing me off, boys.

Thirty-eight, 39...

The Blue Angels will be in next month. You need an introduction, let me know.

- Bye for now. - Bye.

Far fucking out!

I've been wanting to meet a Blue Angel for ages.

- Look at the poopies. Poor guys. - See you in a month on liberty!

Don't worry, it grows out an inch by then!

There'll be no liberty for you, boys. You'll be going home by then.

- Start from one again. One... - Two...

Flying low and feeling mean

Spot a family by the stream

Pickle a pair and hear them scream

'Cause napalm sticks to kids

- That is disgusting! - What are you doing here, Seeger?

Am I threatening you, Worley?

We'll send you to war. Get your ass shot down.

I don't mind being the first woman to fly fighters in combat.

- Go in my place. - Jets?

- All the way. - How about you, Mayo?

- Jets. - I hate to tell you,

but only two in each class go to jets. Who's going with me?

- Me. - Me.

Talking in the ranks again.

You three just added two miles to this hike.

For everybody. Come on, let's go.

Family of gooks are sitting in a ditch

Little baby's sucking on momma's tit

Chemical firms don't give a shit

That napalm sticks to kids

Get over there! Let's go!

All right, everybody up! Up on your feet!

I don't want to see anything coming out of your mouths either!

Get into shape around here! Stand straight up!

All right, get out of the way!

Lift your head and hold it high

The best in the regiment is running on by

That could be you at the end of 13 weeks.

For those of you who might survive. You don't deserve to look at them!

Della Serra, turn your back!

You are without a doubt the most pathetic class

I've ever been assigned to.

You chump! Four weeks and you still can't shine a damn buckle.

Shoot me a Kotex, buddy.

Be careful where you stick that.

Five minutes to inspection, Mayo.

Where's your money?

Boonies.

You better hope Foley never finds out about that, Mayo.

Hey, Perryman?

Look what I've got here, man.

Look at that. Look at those buckles, man.

Look good, huh? Ten bucks.

- Fifteen for the boonies. - Who the hell has 10 bucks?

I spend every penny I get to keep my old lady and my kid in that motel.

You're breaking my heart, Perryman.

Who have you got doing this stuff for you?

Some enlisted guy, right?

- Hey, tell me something. - Watch the sheets, man.

Look, is that change you're making from that stuff

worth all of us getting kicked out of here on an honour's violation?

I don't see anybody else complaining about it, Perryman. Excuse me.

Ready? Go.

- Look out, Worley, coming through. - The hell you are.

Here I come.

Out of my way, Mayo. Gonna put my name on that wall.

- Underneath mine. - Fuck!

Shit!

Goddamn, Mayonnaise.

2.25. Not bad for a beginner.

Piece of cake.

Let's go now! Come on, Schneider!

Let's go! You guys are bringing up the rear!

You're not getting out of here until you get over that wall, Seeger.

- I'll make it, sir! - Hurry up.

Come on, get over there!

Do you really want to be a man?

Are you one of those who didn't get Daddy's attention,

because he wanted a son, Seeger?

That's it. That's what's going to beat you every time, Seeger.

Your mental attitude of a person of the female persuasion.

Deep down, under all that bullshit,

you're still thinking like a second-class citizen, Seeger.

You can never give orders to men!

Walk around. Walk around, sugar-breeches.

Bernoulli's equation gives us

the total energy contained in the airflow.

"Pi" is static pressure in pounds per square foot.

"Rho" is air density in slugs per cubic foot.

And velocity is in feet per second.

Two thousand pounds per square foot...

Let's see them.

All right. What about the buckles?

- Okay, good enough, 20 bucks, right? - Hey, bud.

Beat it.

What are you laughing about?

- I thought that's how you did it. - Did what?

Come on, Santa Claus.

- Will you tell anybody about this? - Not if you make it worth my while.

Free boonies for the duration. That's fair.

I'll tell you what I'm going to do.

You get me through aerodynamics, you can write your own ticket, my friend.

You got a deal.

I'm coming home, I've done my time

And I've got to know what is and isn't mine

If you receive my letter telling me I'll soon be free

then you know just what to do if you still want me

If you still want me...

George Jones, where are you when we need you most?

Hey, two o'clock. Moving in, Della Serra.

Radar's up, scoping the target area.

Zero in, slick it back. There he goes.

Who will be the lucky deb? Is it the blonde? Is it the brunette?

Score! He's got her.

Oh, my God. Check Perryman.

Five years of marriage, still in love. It's what life is all about.

Hey, Seeger.

Remember that bodacious set of tatas and her pal?

There they are, bud.

I think we ought to do something about it.

Captain, it's so nice to meet you.

The boys speak so highly of you...

- Lynette, he has many people to meet. - Oh, I'm so sorry.

- Mrs Ruffervvell? - Hello, Captain.

Could you introduce us to these two young ladies, please?

Paula, Lynette.

Miss Paula Pokrifki, Miss Lynette Pomeroy.

May I present Officer Candidates Sid Worley and Zachary Mayo?

Well, I hope you have a good time.

- We've already met. - We did?

You said it would grow an inch by now.

- That was you guys? - Yeah.

- Would you like to dance? - Sure.

It's grown out more than an inch, pal.

- Would you like to get a drink? - Sure.

Let's go.

- So, what kind of a name is Pokrifki? - Polish.

- What kind of a name is Mayo? - Italian. My mom was Irish.

- No, thank you. - I think I got her ears.

The rest is all wop.

Where are you from, Mayo the Wop?

Everywhere, nowhere, Paula the Polack.

- Seriously. - Seriously.

- My father is a rear admiral, 7th Fleet. - You're kidding.

No, we've lived in ports all over the world.

Kathmandu, Moscow, Nairobi.

Really? I've never been out of Washington.

Wait a minute. You're kidding me, right?

- We have no naval bases in Moscow. - No.

No, I didn't think so.

So, you got a girl, Mayo the Wop?

No.

I'm not looking for one either.

What are you looking for?

I heard about these girls that come to these things looking for a husband.

Not me.

Oh, yeah? Why are you here?

To meet interesting people, improve myself.

- What do you do? Go to school? - No, I've got a job.

I work over at National Paper. It's a real good job.

I'm going to save enough money to travel.

I think I'd like to go to Moscow.

Have you been through the Dilbert Dunker yet?

No, but both my father and my brother made it, so I guess I can, too.

- Is your brother a flyer? - He was. He got killed.

- Vietnam? - Yeah.

My brother died over there, too. He wasn't a flyer, though.

I was only 12 when it happened. I don't remember much about him.

I sure remember Tommy. Do you mind if we talk about something else?

We don't have to talk about anything at all.

So, do you think you'll manage to get your wings?

Who knows?

Guys a lot smarter than me have been dropping out like flies.

You have to say you're going to do it. You have to programme yourself.

It'll happen. You have to see yourself making it.

I know, because I read this article in Cosmo about that very thing.

I swear.

Paula.

You are a very, very pretty girl.

Do you want to go somewhere else?

Come on.

Fall out, Worley.

Something tells me you girls have been here before.

Whatever gave you that idea?

- Stop it. You'll ruin it. - I'm sorry.

I'll do it.

Are you sure this is okay?

Don't worry. I'll respect you in the morning.

You're crazy, girl.

You'll respect me...

I couldn't wait to get out of there.

- Didn't you like the band? - Not much.

You didn't like Tie A Yellow Ribbon? Their rendition was one of the...

- Let's go down to the beach. - That sounds good.

Class, halt!

Fall out!

Look at Foley. Can you believe it? Showboating.

All right, listen up.

I am the base martial arts instructor.

Those of you in 1-5 must not think of me

as the drill instructor for the next 60 minutes.

Just think of me as the enemy.

Do you believe this guy?

May I have a volunteer, please?

Daniels. As you're hiding back there. Get up here quick.

- Put him in the hospital. - He can't touch me, it's against the law.

Come on up here, son.

Hello, pussy. How bad do you want to survive?

Sir, this officer candidate doesn't understand

the drill instructor's question.

Let's see if I can clarify it.

You want to survive bad enough to stop me, pussy?

Are you relying on my generosity to stop me from killing you?

Can't breathe...

Break loose, break loose!

I can't breathe.

Get away from here.

You're not hurt. I could have killed you if I wanted to. Move off.

Get out of here. Hurry up. Get back to your seat.

You think I was really harsh on your classmate, don't you?

Just wait till you get shot down behind enemy lines.

The only thing between you and a POW camp

is what you learn from me.

Now that I've got your attention, we shall proceed with the class.

God, I hope she shows.

She's going to show. She will show.

A rich, socialite Okie like you

ought to be a big catch around these parts.

- I'm not rich. - An officer's kid.

So what?

Man, I spent six years living on top of the raunchiest whorehouse in the P.l.

"You want number one fucky-fucky?

"Long time, short time. $10. Cheap, cheap."

"$10. $10."

- Lynette, honey, how's it hanging? - Don't drool on her, boy.

- Hi, baby. - Hi.

Pansy-assed fly boys.

- I remember you. Mayo the Wop. - Yeah, that's me.

It's good to see you.

I was looking forward to it.

Me, too.

Excuse me.

You guys want to hang out here, or can I suggest an alternate plan?

- Like pick up a bottle and go to a motel? - Just like that.

What do you think?

I vote for a motel.

My kind of group.

Troy, here they come.

Well, make way for the warmongers.

- What did you call us? - A warmonger. Isn't that what you are?

Yeah, all right.

I thought he wanted to dance with you.

- I'd like to ask you something. - What do you want?

You come up here for a couple of months, you rich college boys.

You're strutting around in your ice-cream outfits like you own the place.

- Who do you think you are? - I don't want to fight you.

I do not want to fight. Why don't you go inside and cool down?

I'm not finished talking to you, sailor boy.

Get him, Troy.

Oh, my God.

- That's enough, man. - Holy shit, check his nose.

- He broke his nose. - You asshole!

Come on.

I've never seen anything like that in my whole life.

- Did you see that guy's nose... - Shut up until we get to the motel.

Excuse me for living.

Asshole.

I shouldn't have done it. I should have walked away.

- Zack, he didn't give you a choice. - One always has a choice.

- Where did you learn to fight like that? - I don't want to talk about it now.

Zack, it wouldn't kill you to open up to me a little bit.

What do you want? You want to fuck?

Come here. Get on the bed. Take your clothes off.

- I'll give you a good fuck. - Where's that coming from?

- I wouldn't fuck you now... - Then get the hell out of here!

Who do you think you're talking to? I'm no whore you brought in here.

- I'm trying to be your friend. - Then be a friend. Get out of here.

Fine. Fine.

You're nothing special. No manners! You treat women like whores.

If you ask me, you have no chance of becoming an officer.

Hey.

It's okay. It's all right.

I'm sorry.

- Are you hungry? - Yeah, I'm starved.

- Skivvies? - Pretty sexy, huh?

- Sporty. - Control yourself, baby.

Good.

Look, Paula...

I try hard not to fool anybody about who I am and what I want.

- So if you got... - I know who you are and what you want.

- What do you want? - A good time until you have to leave.

That's it?

- Last night was incredible. - I thought so, too.

- Zack, am I your fantasy? - What?

I'm not going to get serious on you, but I dare you not to fall in love with me.

I mean, how can you resist? I'm like candy.

You are better than candy.

It's going to be very hard to get enough. Very hard. Very hard.

Getting feisty on me, you little Polack? You little cocky Polack.

What do you do with a girl when you're through with her?

Do you say something, or do you just disappear?

I've never had a girl.

- I forgot to thank you for breakfast. - Any time, sailor.

Heads up. When you hit the water,

you might get the wind knocked out of you.

Don't panic.

You've got a second and a half before the cage is underwater.

It flips upside down. Go, Joe.

The most important thing is to watch your bubbles.

When the cage flips upside down, you will be disoriented.

Like Perryman down there.

The bubbles will determine which way is up.

All right, time's up. Go down for him, Jason.

This is what happens if you panic. You can die down there.

This is only a pool.

In the Pacific, you won't have a frogman to save your ass.

Totally unsatisfactory, Perryman. Get in the back of the line. Do it again.

You only have two more chances to make it, or you're out.

Hold it. Change in order.

Mayo, since you're "Hot Shot of the Week", you're next.

- Aye, aye, sir. - Seeger. You're behind him.

Yes, sir.

You ought to be good at this. Something you can do alone.

Take him up, Joe!

You never know in this programme what's going to trip you up.

It could be the grade

or a flaw in your character that comes out under stress.

Let's go, Joe.

Way to go.

Seeger, you're next.

All right, Seeger, let's go. Get a move on.

Joe, take her up.

- Don't you cry now, sugar-breeches. - Go, Joe.

- All right, Seeger! - All right.

Good girl.

Oh, gosh, that was great! Will they let us do it again?

Not bad, Seeger. But you still have to get over that wall.

Next.

- Come on, Daniels, let's move it. - Take it easy now. Just a joyride.

Does this thing have the same impact as a plane?

This is nothing compared to a plane. Don't forget to watch the bubbles.

All right, Joe, take him up.

Daniels, let's have that thumbs up.

Come on, Daniels. Where's the thumbs up?

Go, Joe.

Hold it, take it easy.

- Pull it back up. - I can't. It'll take a few seconds.

Put him on his belly.

- Take his helmet off! Quick! - God damn.

Just stand back.

Breathe, man, breathe.

Is that corpsman on the way?

Somebody check on that corpsman. He's going to be all right. Take it easy.

Prepare for inspection!

Shit! I'm not going to make it.

Help me out, Sid. Do you have a spare?

No, man. My spare sucks. You know where the hardware store is.

Zack, I need a buckle, man.

- I can't risk it. - Plenty of time. He's still with the girls.

- I can't do it. - I have to see my family.

I couldn't take it if he wouldn't let me out.

I wouldn't want you to get an honour violation, Perryman.

Okay.

Attention on deck!

In every class, there's always one joker who thinks he's smarter than me.

In this class, that happens to be you, isn't it, Mayonnaise?

Perryman, Worley, let us have this room.

On the double.

- Couldn't happen to a nicer guy. - Stow it.

Mayo, I want you D.O.R.

No, sir. You can kick me out of here, but I'm not quitting.

Get into your fatigues, Mayo.

By the end of this weekend, you'll quit.

Casey Jones was a son of a bitch

Drove his train in a 30-foot ditch

Came on out with his dick in his hand

Said, "Listen, ladies, I'm a hell of a man"

Went to his room and lined up 100

Swore up and down he'd fuck everyone

Fucked 98 till his balls turned blue

Then he backed off, jacked off and fucked the other two

Wave goodbye to your buddies, Mayo.

I forgot. You don't have any buddies, only customers.

- Are you having fun, Mayonnaise? - Yes, sir!

- Can't hear you! - Yes, sir!

Ninety-eight, 99...

Get your face all the way down in there.

Hundred.

- Are you ready to quit now, Mayo? - No, sir!

Look over there, Mayo.

Look over there, look at her.

She decided to stay instead of taking liberty this weekend.

She may not make it, but she's got more heart

and more character than you'll ever have.

Stop eyeballing me!

Life sure has dealt you some shitty cards, hasn't it?

I'm doing all right, sir.

- Six... - Bullshit.

I've done some checking. I've looked through your files.

I know about your momma. Don't you eyeball me again.

I know your father is an alcoholic and a whore-chaser.

That's why you don't mesh. Because deep down...

Don't you eyeball me, boy!

Deep down inside, you know

the other boys and girls are better than you.

- Isn't that right, Mayo? - No, sir! No, sir!

What's the matter, Mayo? Are you getting tired? I'm not. Move it!

This is where the fun starts. Move it!

You've got all day tomorrow to look forward to. Come on!

Six inches off the ground.

Now give me six to 90.

Hey, Mayo...

Why don't we quit this charade of yours over a couple of beers at TJ's?

You're about as close to being officer material as me.

This candidate believes he would make a good officer.

You don't give a shit about anybody. Your classmates know it.

Do you think they'd trust you flying a plane with them in it?

I picture you as a guy who would zip off with an F-14 and sell it to the Cubans.

No, sir! I love my country.

Sell it to the Air Force, Mayo.

Why would a slick little hustler like you want to sign up for this abuse?

- I want to fly jets, sir. - My grandma wants to fly jets.

- Ever since I was a kid! - The topic is not flying, but character!

- I've changed since I got here. - The hell you have!

I've changed, sir!

You've just polished up your act, just shined it up.

But tell me what I want to hear.

- I want your D.O.R. - No, sir.

- I'm not going to quit. - Spell it! D-O-R!

Then you and your daddy can get drunk and chase whores.

No, sir! I'm not going to quit!

Then you can forget it! You're out!

Don't you do it! Don't you...

I've got nowhere else to go!

I've got nowhere else to...

I've got nothing else.

All right, Mayo. On your feet.

Come on, Mayo. Let's get back to the barracks.

Zack, don't give up! You've got that queer on the run!

- Kiss this, Foley! - Hang in there, Zack!

- Friends of yours, Mayo? - Yes, sir.

- We're with you, Zack! - Don't quit, Zack, you can make it!

All right, you've got some urinals to clean. Move out.

Foley's a queer! He got his balls shot off in the war!

So you're still here, Mayo.

- Sid? - Yeah.

Thanks.

Sid.

Take a look at that.

That son of a bitch.

- Do you want me to get a towel? - I'll get one if you want.

- No, I don't want you to move. - I don't want to move.

Somebody has to move sometime.

Eventually.

"They found them there weeks later, shrivelled from lack of food and water."

Bye, Zachary.

I laughed all week thinking about you guys on that boat.

We were so drunk.

That looks pretty sharp. Pretty sharp.

I'd love to be one of those girls in the flight programme.

I think it'd be a gas to fly.

What's stopping you?

You know, all those magazines. What they say, it's just...

It's not so easy for a girl.

That's no excuse for not going out and getting what you want.

Just go and get it.

And who says that I'm not going after what I want?

Not me.

My mom's 39 years old. She still works over at that factory.

Every time I look at her, I know exactly what I don't want.

My old lady

took a bottle of pills one day when I was at school.

The thing that got me about it...

She didn't leave a note. She didn't...

Nothing. She just checked out.

I've always hated her for that.

Oh, God.

That must really hurt.

Hurt? No.

No. You're all alone in the world.

Once you've got that down, it doesn't hurt any more.

I bet most people would buy that line when you feed it to them.

Hey, are you really serious about having him over?

I don't know. I haven't made up my mind yet.

Paula, how far would you go to get Zack?

- What do you mean? - You know what I mean.

Would you let yourself get pregnant?

No way, Lynette. Come on, would you?

Well, I never used to think I'd do something like that.

Nine weeks just isn't long enough to get a guy to fall in love with you.

That doesn't justify trying to trap him or getting pregnant.

I can't believe you had that thought. It's really backward.

It's not backward if you ask me.

The way these hot-shot assholes use us until they've had enough

and then ditch us like trash.

Don't you ever feel used, Paula? Don't you ever feel like

this is all I get for my troubles,

and the son of a bitch ought to pay for it?

No, I never feel like that.

Well, I do.

- Thanks again for the flowers, Zack. - It's my pleasure, ma'am.

Those are the most beautiful things I ever saw.

Wipe that stuff off your mouth.

Zack.

This is great.

Sir?

How many more weeks till graduation?

I have three more weeks.

- Those are the roughest ones of all. - That's what they tell me.

Sir, excuse me, but why are you staring at my food?

Or are you staring at me?

- Staring at you. - He doesn't mean anything by it.

Do you, Joe?

No, I don't mean anything by it.

Would you like more chicken, Zack?

No, thanks. In fact, I've had it. I can't eat another bite.

- This was great. - I'm stuffed, too.

This is the best meal I've had in a long time, ma'am. Thank you.

Why don't we go, Zack? Thank you, Mom.

- Thank you, Zack. - Thanks again, ma'am.

Go on and eat.

Sorry. I'm so embarrassed, Zack.

I knew I shouldn't have brought you here.

That's okay. A great free meal. A nice relaxing dinner.

These people are so uptight. I feel sorry for you.

Don't feel sorry for me, I'm used to it. It's hereditary.

So anyway, after this you go to basic flight,

which is in Pensacola, right?

Yeah, Pensacola.

Then we go to Beeville, Texas when I get jets.

So, after that. Don't you think about... I mean, come on.

What's after that? Family, kids?

Do you think about all that?

No.

- Is that what you think about? - Sometimes.

If I could do a better job than them I'd love it.

- What would you do different? - Everything.

First, I'd marry a man I really loved.

So why did your mom marry this guy if she didn't love him?

Because my real father wouldn't marry her.

- Your real father? - My real father.

I'll show you my real father.

Pop.

I see your real father was an officer candidate like me.

- About 22 years ago. - Jesus!

No wonder this guy was looking at me funny.

He always looks funny.

- It's about time I got back to the wars. - Yeah, I know.

Thank your mom for dinner again, okay?

- Great chicken, huh? - Yeah, I loved the chicken.

If you get a chance this week, give me a call, okay?

I'll try. We have survival training this week, so I can't make any promises.

No promises.

Zack, I didn't have to show you that picture if I didn't want to.

- I just wanted to tell you that. - Yeah, I know.

- Be careful on that thing. - Yeah.

Are you and Paula still seeing those flight candidates on the base?

Why? Any reason we wouldn't be?

3:40 p.m. and no word about what you're doing over the weekend.

Hi, I'd like to speak with Zack Mayo. He's an A.O.C. candidate.

Could you look around for him? Tell him it's Paula.

Liberty time, boys and girls.

Fall out!

Ave, aye, sir!

Where are you going?

- Seeger, don't forget TJ's. - I won't.

Hey, Mayo, you've got a phone call. Somebody named Paula.

Tell her I already split.

I see. Okay.

There comes a time.

Right after survival training, they think they can make it without you.

Suddenly, they stop calling. Suddenly, they own the goddamn world.

They said that he'd already left.

I don't think that he had.

He hasn't called by now, he isn't going to.

Bunny, why don't you just shut up?

- You don't know so much. - Clock me out, Lynette.

Paula, what are you doing?

May they all crash and burn.

- Paula, wait! Where are you going? - Let me go, Momma.

You're going to the base. Don't do it.

I love him. I can't just let him run off.

- How are you going to stop him? - I'll think of a way.

- No! - No?

Honey, please. I can't let you do this. Don't go, baby. Please, don't go.

- What are you crying about? - Because I know what you're feeling.

- What am I feeling? - Don't do it. Let him go.

- Don't trick him or try to trap him. - I wouldn't do that!

- Yes. - I would never trap him...

If you go there tonight and find him, you'll say anything, baby. You will.

And God help you after that.

Momma, you're right.

Daddy, Zack's only two-tenths of a second

after the all-time obstacle course record.

He'll break it before he leaves.

You're lucky you weren't in the programme when I was.

You couldn't just quit the way you can now.

When me and my oldest boy went through it,

you ended as a swabby if you bilged out.

That's interesting, sir.

You haven't written Susan in three weeks.

We haven't had time to write anybody. I have written to you only once.

It's incredible.

- Right? - Oh, yeah.

- Who is this Susan, anyway? - It's my girl back home.

I'm marrying her as soon as I get out of here.

She was Tommy's girl. They were to marry before he got killed.

I guess I didn't tell you because you'd think I was a shit.

I'm not your parents, you know.

- Do you love this girl? - The greatest chick you want to know.

She loves kids. Works with handicapped kids every afternoon.

That's not what I'm talking about.

- I asked you if you loved her. - Everybody loves her.

- I'm not going to make it to the reunion. - Why not?

I'm meeting Lynette over at the Tides.

Best head in 52 states, man. What can I do?

No,no,no. You should have done what I did.

Break it off clean. Have it done with. Over. That's the best.

She was torn up since you didn't call, but I'm not supposed to tell you that.

Women, women, women...

They always say we'll have a good time, lots of laughs, no problems.

Doesn't work that way, does it?

Look out, TJ's. Here I come.

See you later, man.

- To survival. - To survival.

In spite of Foley.

Is that your deb over there, Mayo?

She's pulling rank on you. She's with a flight instructor.

I'll be back in a minute.

What are you doing here?

I thought I should see legendary TJ's once before I left here.

- Do you come here a lot? - I come here once in a while.

I'm sorry I didn't call you this weekend. The whole week has been unbelievable.

It's okay. How did survival training go?

- I survived. - You survived, obviously.

- How was your week? - It was good.

- I'll get a raise next month. - That's great.

Aren't you guys graduating in a couple of weeks?

Yeah, I'm starting to believe I'm actually going to make it.

You'll make it. Remember I told you. You saw it, and it'll happen.

Yeah, you told me.

I have to go. I have a date. So...

Look, there's something I want to...

What?

I... I want to thank you.

I don't think I would have made it through this crazy thing

-without something to look forward to. - Don't thank me. I had a good time.

And good luck in Pensacola with your flight training and...

Get jets, all right?

I'll see you, Zack.

Jay, give me another one.

In fact, give me the bottle.

Baby doll, come here.

Come over here.

Sit down here for a second. I'm going to tell you something.

I just had to have one more taste.

Does that stuff come in anything besides strawberry?

How about if I bring some coconut next time?

Sid, I really have to go.

Shouldn't you have had your period by now?

I'm a little late, that's all.

- How late are you? - Why? What's the difference?

If anything was to happen, which I'm sure it's not,

it'd be my responsibility.

- Exactly how late are you? - What do you care?

Suppose I did get pregnant?

I'd never try to make you do something you didn't want to do.

I know.

That's not the only issue. There's more to it than that.

What other issue is there, Sid?

My responsibilities as a father, for one thing.

If I'd got you pregnant, I'd want to do the right thing by you.

I'd pay for the abortion.

I'd be with you through the whole thing, like we'd be going through it together.

So how late are you?

Let's just wait and see what happens, okay?

See you later.

I'll call you.

Go.

- Go for the record, Mayo! - This is it, Mayonnaise. Go.

Go for it, man. Go get it.

- Go, Mayo, push it! - Get there. Put your name on that wall!

Come on, Mike, let's catch that animal!

Let's do this together, Seeger.

- Come on. - Forget it. Go for the record.

Come on, hurry up!

- Go, go, go! - Come on, you've got it!

- Get up. - Forget it.

You want jets? Then get up! You're going over that wall.

Start right here. Three steps. Right, left, right.

Hand over hand. Walk the wall.

Come on, Seeger. Let's go.

Left, right and pull. Walk that wall, Seeger!

Walk it, Walk it! Walk the Wall!

Don't you let go! You walk that wall!

Pull, pull! You've got it. Pull over!

Pull yourself over!

Where's Sid?

Couldn't she be lying?

She went to the doctor, she had the test, she's pregnant.

- Okay, so get an abortion. - I'd love to, believe me.

She won't even talk about it. She's Catholic.

Sid, you're not going to marry this girl.

She says it's up to me, but if I don't, she'll go off and have the baby.

- So what? Women do it all the time. - So what?

I can't let her have a kid by herself. It's my kid, too.

Are you sure?

It's mine.

I'm sorry, all right?

Listen, what if Foley was right?

If she's trapping you, is it still your responsibility?

That's not the point. No matter what, there'd be a child that is mine.

I wouldn't know its name or nothing.

Jesus Christ, is everything your responsibility?

Sit. Adjust. Pray. Attack.

It's just like your brother getting killed.

It's the same thing with your brother. Him getting killed instead of you.

Isn't that why you promised to marry Susan?

Isn't the reason to do everything after some bullshit code of ethics?

It may be bullshit to you, buddy, but I wasn't raised that way.

We are responsible for the people in our lives.

That is what separates us from the animals.

I'm not like you.

I can't shit all over people and then sleep like a baby.

You have a responsibility to yourself first. If you can't handle that,

you have bigger problems than knocking up a girl!

Gentlemen, relax.

Without an oxygen mask at 30,000 feet,

your insides will feel like this rubber glove.

Your co-ordination will deteriorate, and simple tasks will seem impossible.

Look for the warning signs.

Giddiness, shortness of breath, claustrophobia.

They can hit you at any moment.

When you feel yourself losing control, go back on oxygen.

That's the whole purpose of this drill.

Does everyone understand the exercise?

Okay, everybody set? Let's see a thumbs up, please.

Very good. Everybody remove your masks, please.

All right. You can begin the exercises now.

Queen of diamonds.

Nine of diamonds.

If you have any problems, put your mask on.

Or if you have trouble doing that, raise your hand for assistance.

How are you doing, Mayo and Seeger? Having trouble?

Concentrate. Try to make your palms meet.

Ace of spades.

How are you doing, Worley?

Worley, are you all right?

- Worley, can you hear me? - Ace of spades.

Worley, put your mask back on.

Sid, are you okay?

- I got to get out of here... - Worley, sit down!

Corpsman, we have a problem.

- I've got to get out of here! - Corpsman, get that mask on.

It's all right, breathe. Get out of here! It's all right.

Mayo, they're watching.

Pressure stabilised in one minute.

- Put your masks on. - It's all right. Nobody's watching.

Stay where you are. Leave your masks on.

It's okay. No problem. He's okay.

Colours!

Secure the halyard.

Charlie, take care of that.

What's going on?

You didn't kick him out?

Didn't he tell you what he's been going through?

It doesn't matter. That's the purpose of this zoo.

What does matter is that he freaked out at 25,000 feet.

That can't happen ever.

A pregnant girl is putting him through hell.

- That doesn't matter. - What? You have two weeks left!

It could still happen to you, Mayonnaise.

He's not bullshitting you.

- I'm talking to you, motherfucker! - Don't fuck it up for you, man.

What did you call me?

I thought the D.l. was supposed to help. What kind of a human being are you?

Lock it up, or you'll be going home with him.

Zack, go back to the barracks, please.

I don't get this. He's the best candidate in the class!

He's the best student, the best leader, the best friend to everybody.

- Can't you bend your rules for once? - He didn't ask me to D.O.R.

- I went to him. - What are you talking about?

I'm glad it's over. He was right. I was here for everybody but me.

I was here for my big brother.

Hey, buddy. Sid, wait a minute. Sid!

Request permission to carry on...

- Sir! - Get the fuck out of here.

- Yes, sir. Keep the change. - Thanks, pal.

Lynette.

- Hi, baby. - Hi, Sid.

- Come out here. - Where's your uniform?

Don't worry, just come out here.

- Wait. I look like a mess. - All right, if you don't want it...

All right. What?

- Well, if you don't want it... - What?

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God. It's beautiful.

Cost me my whole savings, but I said, "What the fuck".

Oh, Sid!

- So, does this mean... - Yes, ma'am! That's what it means.

- Oh, Sid! - Let's go to the Justice of the Peace.

I can't wait to tell Paula. I wonder where we'll be stationed first.

I hope it's Hawaii. I've always wanted to go there.

We won't be stationed anywhere. I D.O.R.'ed.

- You've what? - I D.O.R.'ed.

Hell, I was never cut out to be a pilot.

I was faking it, just like everything in my life up to now.

But what would we do? Where would we go?

Oklahoma.

I'll get my old job back at J.C. Penney's. In two years, I'll be floor manager.

You'll love Oklahoma. And you and Mom will get along great.

Money might be tight at first, so we'll have to live at home.

- It'll work out. - Sid, there is no baby.

What?

I'm not pregnant.

I got my period this morning. There's no baby, Sid.

I'll be goddamned.

What do you say we get married anyway?

I love you.

I don't think I knew that till just now, just this second.

I have never been happier than in these last seven weeks.

I've never felt so relaxed.

I've never felt so loved for who I really am.

Lynette, marry me. Make me the happiest man in the whole world.

I'm sorry, Sid, but I don't want to marry you.

I really like you,

and we've had some really great times, but I thought you understood.

I want to marry a pilot. I want to live my life overseas.

The wife of an aviator.

Damn you. God damn you!

Nobody D.O.R.'s after 11 weeks. Nobody!

Hey, ma'am. Have you seen Paula around?

- Paula! - Paula!

I'm looking for Sid.

He D.O.R.'ed and split. Nobody has seen him since.

I don't know where to look.

Go to Lynette's.

- Same room? - Yes, sir.

- Number three. - Yeah, that's the one.

- What do you think of this? - That's nice.

Watch this. I think you'll like it.

Damn it!

Oh, shit.

Lynette.

- Has Sid been here? - Already come and gone.

- What happened? - Can you believe it?

He D.O.R.'ed in the twelfth week.

How can you win?

Lynette...

What did you tell him about the baby?

That there isn't one. As of today.

I got my period this morning.

I couldn't believe it. He still wanted to marry me.

- And what did you say? - I said no, of course.

I don't want no Okie from Muskogee. I get that right here.

You little bitch.

Who the hell do you think you are, playing with people like that?

He loves you. You just shit on him.

You made up this whole thing. There was no baby.

Of course, there was a baby. I'd never lie about something like that.

Would I, Paula?

You little cunt.

God help you.

- You're no different than I am. - Oh, yes, lam.

Oh, no, you're not.

- Let me see if he's here, okay? - All right.

Hey, Mack, have you seen Sid Worley around here?

Yeah, he's here.

Sid.

The guy said he just got here.

Sid.

Sid?

Hey, man.

Sid, are you okay?

- Shit! - What?

Oh, God.

Call an ambulance.

Poor Sid.

Oh, my God.

Call an ambulance.

You dumb fucking Okie.

I was your friend.

Why didn't you come and talk to me about it?

You didn't even try.

You didn't even say goodbye to me.

I spoke to the chaplain at the base. He said he'd call Sid's parents.

Why can't I learn? Just like her, all over again. Just like her.

Zack, don't do this to yourself. You didn't kill your mother.

You didn't kill Sid. They killed themselves.

- There's nothing you could've done. - I've got to go.

You want some money to get a cab? Something. I don't...

- I don't deserve that! - Okay. All right.

It's not just you who's feeling awful. Maybe I had something to do with it.

I knew what Lynette was doing, but I didn't say anything.

Look, you've got no problems, all right?

Another class will come soon, and you two will be back in business.

That's not fair. I never lied to you. I never did what Lynette's doing.

- I'm not Lynette. - No.

I love you. I've loved you since I met you.

Don't you understand?

No! I don't want you or anyone to love me. I just want out!

I don't know but it's been said

Air Force wings are made of lead

Left, right

Column, right turn!

I don't know but I've been told

Navy wings are made of gold

Platoon, halt!

This officer candidate requests permission to see you in private, sir.

Mayo, the whole class knows about Candidate Worley. We're sorry.

I bet you are.

- I want to see you in private, sir. - Not now, I'm busy.

- Now. - Forward, march!

Sir, I request permission...

Left, right, left, right...

This officer candidate requests permission to see you in private, sir!

Not now, I'm busy. So are you, now get cleaned up.

I don't need your shit. I came back to quit! D.O.R.!

Platoon, halt!

I don't need you, I don't need the Navy. I don't need anybody.

Okay, Mayo. I see what you want.

You said you wanted to meet me in private. You got it.

The blimp hangar, now! Move it!

- You move it. - We're not going there to talk, boy.

Move!

Fall out. Fall out! This is between me and him.

All right, Mayo.

Let's see what you've got.

I see you've had some training, Mayonnaise.

- Come on, Foley. - Lookie, lookie, here.

Your blood is as red as mine, isn't it, Mayo?

Come on. Get up!

You can quit now, Mayo, if you want to. It's up to you.

Sir, the officers are present.

Will the guests please rise?

Class 15-81, raise your right hand and repeat after me.

I do solemnly swear.

I will support and defend the constitution of the United States...

...against all enemies, foreign and domestic...

I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same.

I take this obligation freely...

...without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion.

I will well and faithfully discharge...

...the duties of the office on which I am about to enter...

...so help me God.

Please, be seated.

- Gunnery Sergeant Foley. - Sir.

Well done, Sergeant.

Thank you, sir.

Class 1-5-8-1.

- Fall out! - Aye, aye, sir!

Foley's Fire-Eaters finally finished!

- I want you to meet my family. - No, I want to get my first salute.

Congratulations, Ensign Chadwick.

- Congratulations, Ensign Seeger. - Thank you, sir.

Gunnery Sergeant, Ensign Seeger.

Sir.

Congratulations, Ensign Mayo.

- I will never forget you, Sergeant. - I know.

I wouldn't have made this if it weren't for you.

Get the hell out of here.

Thank you, Sergeant.

Congratulations, Ensign Della Serra.

Thank you, Sergeant.

Every time I say, "Understand", I want the whole group to say, "Yes, sir".

- Understand! - Yes, sir!

I don't believe what I'm seeing. Where have you been all your lives?

Listening to punk rock and bad-mouthing your country, I bet.

- Where are you from, boy? - Tucson, Arizona, sir!

Only two things come out of Arizona. Steers and queers.

Which one are you? I don't see horns, so you must be queer.

No, sir!

I expect to lose half of you before I'm finished.

I'll use any means necessary, fair and unfair...

Turn it, Bunny. No, back the other way.

Keep going, keep going.

Way to go, Paula!
