All language subtitles for Early Edition s03e04 Lt Hobson, Usn

You never know where tomorrow is going
to take you.

From the seats of power to a seat in the
tattoo parlor.

It's all part of the package when you
get tomorrow's newspaper today.

Lloyd Cutler?

Hey, you... Ow!

What? Sorry.

You used to ride with a gang in
Wisconsin.

The... The Marauders?

So? You gotta get out of here.

It's a zoo.

When you left, you left with the head
honcho's girlfriend, right?

What?

They're here.

Man.

Hey. Hey, get back here.

You mean a dude named Lloyd?

He went out the back.

Ow. Moth.

What does that mean, moth?

It's not finished.

Oh.

What if you knew, beyond a doubt, what
was going to happen tomorrow?

What would you do?

There is no easy answer for a guy who
gets tomorrow's news today.

Not bothering him.

Anything good in the paper?

What are you watching?

It's called the news, Henry.

Why do you watch the news if you already
know what's going to happen?

Because sometimes... Don't you have to
be in school?

The bus comes in ten minutes.

Republics of Chesnia and Livonia are set
to engage in full -scale talks at the

University of Illinois today in the
latest attempt to end decades of ethnic

strife. Militant groups have threatened
to disrupt the proceedings since

security is tight in the region.

So what happens at the peace talks?

They fall apart.

Actually, they never begin because of
the shape of the table, all right? Shape

of the table?

That's a stupid thing to have a war
about.

Why don't you do something?

Look, because they don't like each other
very much, and there's nothing I can do

about that, all right? But still...
Look, Henry, I'm just a regular guy who

happens to get the most paper, okay?
Don't ask me why, because I don't know,

I can't save the world. And if I tried,
I couldn't. Why not?

Because world peace is a little bit out
of my league.

I mean, things like this. Now, that's
something... Oh, boy.

That's something I can do something
about.

Listen,

I gotta go. You, uh... You get to
school.

You don't understand.

I just tried to call their embassies.

Isn't there anybody at the State
Department I can talk to?

Really? The State Department has a
website?

I'm looking for the ammunition storage
area.

The ammunition dump. Yes, sir. Do you
have identification?

Yeah, I can't find it.

Driver's license right here. No, sir.
Military ID, sir.

No, well, I'm not in the military.

And you want the ammo dump. See,
something's going to happen.

It's kind of complicated.

One moment, sir.

Thank you.

Help you? Hi.

I've lost my ticket, but that's my
uniform right over there.

No problem.

Hello, Norgy.

Yeah. Yeah. How much is that?

Six bucks.

Six dollars.

Sir.

Excuse me, sir.

One moment, sir.

I hope I'm not out of line here, but I
believe the lieutenant's insignia is

upside down.

Loose.

Huh? On your collar, sir.

Oh. Thank you.

Carry on.

This is a strange question, but do we
have any idea what shape of table the

University of Illinois is using for the
Livonia -Chesnia talks?

Yeah, no, that's right, the table.

Could you find out?

Excuse me. Do you

know where the ammo supply area is?

After these units, sir. Good.

Carry on.

liked about your action back there in
the wiki no hesitation you took the

initiative command present kind of thing
that can't be taught tell me something

lieutenant how did you know it was going
to blow oh well uh well tell the court

i thought so reminds me of subic bay in
73 grab a chair lieutenant

I'm a lieutenant.

Uh -huh.

Modest. I admire that in an officer.

I assume you were in the Gulf.

Whose command?

Operation Fishman, sir. Fishman?

Never heard of it.

Well, that would be because it was...
Oh.

I get it.

Classified?

Yes, sir. Exactly.

Need to know situation.

Excellent.

Tell me, Lieutenant.

Are you single?

Yes, sir.

Outstanding. The torpedo man's ball is
tomorrow night. You know the drill.

whites, navy band.

I'd be honored if you'd escort my
daughter.

Your daughter? Of course, I can't order
you to take her. I can only make a

request, but...

Let me remind you, Lieutenant, that it
is an admiral who's making that request.

So you're going to stand her up?

Yeah, well, I was lucky to get away with
it. Do you have any idea what happens

to someone impersonating an officer?

Firing squad.

What? Yeah, that's in wartime. In
peacetime, you just get life in prison.

Really? Oh, yeah, absolutely.

That's something I picked up when I was
a pre -law major.

Or was it when I was a history major?

Oh, maybe I just found it in the film.

Tensions are running high in Livonia
following the breakdown of peace talks

today. Hey, what's up, big guy?

Peace talks.

Nobody listens.

Oh, listens to who?

Someone who could help.

Ah, you mean like a politician?

I mean like anybody.

Even a kid.

Yeah, well, those guys don't listen to
anyone, not even themselves.

Can I see the paper?

No.

Just the peace talks?

No. If you just show me the peace talks,
I'll never ask to see another story in

the paper again.

I promise.

Oh, you promise?

Like the other times that you promised?

Look, don't get upset.

All right,

the Chesneans walk out. All right? If it
was the Lobotneans, today it's the

Chesneans.

Why?

Why?

Why?

Flowers.

What?

Flowers.

It says there was a red bouquet of
flowers.

The botanian flag is all red. The
Chessanian flag doesn't have any red in

they walked out.

I don't get it. I mean, like, do they
want the beeswax to fail?

I don't know. It would sort of seem that
way, wouldn't it?

Okay, we had a deal.

Thanks.

Hey, Henry.

Well, you know, sometimes things in
life, they just don't work out.

But don't let it get you down, huh?

Okay.

Emily Harrigan, 18, daughter of Rear
Admiral Edward Harrigan, commander of

Great Lakes Naval Training Center, was
killed with an unidentified sailor last

night in a single car accident on North
Sheridan Road.

The car was traveling at a high rate of
speed when it struck the center divider

and flipped.

Oh, Erica.

Hmm?

Where's Marissa?

She's at a management seminar.

She said she checked with you first.

Yeah, she probably did.

Listen, tell her I'm going to be out
tonight, will you? Sure.

Thanks.

Got a date?

Excuse me?

You know, a date, dinner, movie, back in
the cheek.

Something like that.

Really?

Yeah, it can happen, you know.

Not since I've been here.

Where are you going?

I dance.

I dance.

Really?

You just don't seem like the dancing
type, that's all.

I happen to be a pretty good dancer.

Okay. Have fun.

Well, of course I'm going to have fun.
I'm going dancing. That's what people do

when they go dancing. They have fun.
What is wrong with everyone?

Yeah.

What do you think, Ace?

All right.

I'll take it.

But there is someone here to see you.

Yes. Yeah, well, I'm going to have to
call you back on that.

Thank you.

Mr. Jensen, meet Henry Padgett.

This is Henry Padgett?

You're Henry Padgett?

It depends.

How old are you?

Eight and a half.

Almost.

You didn't tell me he was eight years
old. You didn't ask.

Are you the same Henry Padgett that's
been emailing the State Department?

Maybe.

Why?

Hop up here.

Because, my friend, eight years old or
not, you've got the kind of insight that

diplomatic careers are made of.

I do.

Nobody, not even the best or the
brightest that we have, could see the

flowers flap coming except for you,
Henry.

Now, we are desperate for these peace
talks to succeed. We need stability in

region, and we're grasping at straws,
and that's why I'm here.

Oh, you're saying that Henry is a straw.

Our Henry?

That's exactly what I'm saying.

You're my man.

Now... What we need is to get both
parties to sit back down at the table.

Now, it would be my privilege to take
the word of eight -year -old Henry

and tell the world that it took the
wisdom of a child to get two nations

to make peace with each other.

Now, how does that sound?

Oh, Henry.

Oh, lay it on me.

Can't we just wait till tomorrow
morning, like first thing?

Well, I'll tell you, tomorrow's gonna be
a little late.

So just give me an idea, like the table
or the flowers.

I'm a little empty right now, so... I
know, it's hard, but it's important,

Henry. So think, okay?

Think, try.

Excuse me.

No, we've got a problem here. We use
Chicago rules.

Chicago rules.

Yeah, we sit them down. We put the beers
on the house and we tell them, you

know, nobody's leaving here until we
work everything out.

And it works.

Oh, yeah.

They drink a lot of beer anyhow.

Chicago rules.

You just can't order me around, Dad.
Emily, I've already... Just forget it.

is ridiculous.

I can't believe we're having this
discussion.

Lieutenant.

Right on time. Come in.

I... I guess you heard the 16 inches.

Excuse me?

The shore bombardment my daughter can
fire for effect with the best of them.

Oh, no, I didn't hear a thing.

My wife died two years ago, Lieutenant.

Emily transferred to finish college here
in Chicago.

She's been staying with me, which has
been fine until recently.

All I can say is it's easier to command
a fleet in combat.

I suppose we should get this over with.

Hi.

Hello.

You two don't know each other, do you?
No.

Lieutenant Nowicki, nice to meet you.
Hi, hi.

Daddy, don't wait up for us.

Thanks,

Lieutenant.

Look, I don't know what your deal is,
but thank you for not saying anything

about yesterday.

Oh, well, you're welcome. So, that's
that.

Have a good night. Miss Harrigan, if...
Look, you got me out of the house, and

my dad thinks you're great, so let's
just leave it at that.

Okay. Well, don't you think that we
should go to the... Would you please be

quiet?

Don't you think that we should just go
to the dance? Yeah, just for appearance

sake. No, I don't.

But I think you're making a mistake.

The both of you. Don't you start
ordering me around now, too. You could

stay on the base tonight, because there
could be a... There could be an accident

or something. Oh, please. You sound just
like my father.

Sir, I know you're an officer, but I
really don't see any cause for you to

worry. That's it, isn't it?

That's how you found us yesterday. You
were supposed... Look, lady, I don't

to spy on people. I can't believe that
my father would do something this low.

Come on, Eric, let's just go.

Give me my keys. Sir, give her her keys
back. You have no right to do that.

Oh, no.

Break it up.

Break it up.

As you were.

Are you okay, Lieutenant?

What's going on here?

On patrol, sir.

We saw this individual assault the
lieutenant here.

Actually, Admiral. No need to act a
gentleman, Lieutenant.

Book him for assault and trespassing.
No, Daddy, you can't do that. Admiral.

Don't try to cover up for my daughter.

He's telling the truth. But you don't
care about that, do you? And you don't

care about me at all either.

God, I can't believe you. Watch your
head, Steve.

Hey, I know I knew that LT from
somewhere.

That's the guy from the tattoo parlor.

Well, here are the keys, Admiral.

Thanks for everything. Lieutenant, I
need a debriefing.

It's not that he's an enlisted man that
bothers me.

To the contrary.

One of the best sailors I ever served
with came in through the house pipe. But

know I don't have to tell you that. No,
no. I mean, no, no, sir.

Ready for another?

Actually, no, I really should be going.
The world will keep on turning for a few

more hours without us, Nowicki.

Nope. What bothers me is this kid
doesn't care about the Navy.

Not like us, Lieutenant.

Just wants his electronics training
three hots in a cot. Well, this is not

want my daughter to be with.

Well, they are just dating, sir.

She wants to get married.

I can tell you that would be very hard
for me to take.

I suppose you've told her that.

Oh, she knows how I feel.

She is so headstrong.

I'll tell you one thing, though.

I am not going to lose her like this.

I don't mean to go beyond the line, sir.

Look, I know you lost your wife, sir.

But you haven't lost Emily.

Because Emily, she's still here.

Look what we have here.

I think that LT needs a little company,
huh?

Had a few, Lieutenant?

Well, I was just actually going to the
train. Ah, not so fast, sir.

You're out of uniform.

Your hat.

My deposit.

We're going to need to ask you to walk a
straight line, sir.

Now, sir.

Walk a straight line?

Now, sir.

You afraid we're going to have to take
you into public intoxication?

Now, wait a second. You're not
resisting, are you, sir? Well, no.

I suppose we can add conduct unbecoming
to those charges.

Well, now, wait a second, fellas.

You hear something?

A cat?

What are you doing here?

Come on, kid, get out of here.

How's this? Get here.

You want a paper?

No, I already read it, funny.

Hold still, honey. Come on.

I wish Gary was here.

Must have been some date.

He had a date?

It's no mystery where he is this
morning.

Please, not in front of Henry.

Oh, sorry.

This is so cool.

Secret peace talks here at McGinty's. I
can't wait to tell my friends.

Patrick, you can't tell your friends. We
signed an agreement, remember?

Oh, right.

I guess that's why it's a secret. I
think it's a great idea.

Get those guys away from the media.

It's all because of you and Henry.

Yes, sir. Everything's going fine here,
sir, Mr. Secretary. Sir, I realize we're

out on a limb here, but I believe it's a
risk worth taking.

Oh, understood. I won't let you down,
sir.

Thank you.

I need a situation report on the
security perimeter, and I need it five

ago. Thank you.

Wow. Security perimeter?

That sounds serious.

Well, we're controlling an eight -block
area.

There's a lot of crazies out there.

We've kept it away from the media, but
you can't be too careful.

I was scared it was here.

Was I dreaming or did you hear a cat?

There was a cat.

You didn't by chance see a paper, did
you?

Security's got them both in that office.

Excuse me.

Can I have that paper?

What paper is that, sir? That paper
right over there.

You want to see this paper?

You want to see this newspaper?

Exit, sir.

You can see that now, huh?

Gentlemen.

The idea of getting away from the media
and meeting here today was inspired by

Henry's interest in seeing your two
nations come together.

You are wise beyond your years, Henry.

I was about to say the same thing.

Yeah, I see. What are you going to do
about it?

What's going on? I don't know. We did
not agree to let Lovatnia determine the

seating arrangement.

They want this to work.

Probably because I haven't taken their
drink order yet.

Yo, you look like a beer guy to me.

Pilsner, please.

And do you serve absolute?

On the rocks.

Please. He's good.

Excuse me, please.

Patrick, wait. Patrick, right.

You know what? I'm not so sure that
drinking is where we want to go with

right now. Oh, Chicago rules, remember?

Yes, but I thought you just meant the
atmosphere.

You know, since you're going to have
something to drink, maybe you'd like

something to eat, too. Try the buffalo
wings. How specialty?

Buffalo wings?

They're chicken wings.

Spicy. Very, very spicy.

Oh, well, Chesnians like hot food.

One order, please.

Lavotnians love hot food. Two orders.

Spiciest you got.

Okay. Okay.

Coming up.

Well, okay. So, uh...

Then why don't we get started, sit over
here? I will not change seating to

accommodate Lovatny and superstition. I
cannot sit in this chair.

Then I cannot either.

It's a stupid chair. What's the big
deal?

All right, I'll sit.

I got to get out of here. I got to get
out of here right now.

Tell me about it.

Hey, I'm your superior officer, right?

Yes, sir. Well, I'm giving you an order.

Get me out of here now.

Here we are, gentlemen.

Buffalo wings.

Round one.

Patrick, why don't you get a pitcher of
ice water and some glasses? Okay.

When we say extra spicy, we mean it.

Emily.

Aren't you a little old for that?

For what?

Silent treatment.

We should talk.

What's there to talk about?

Just let me try to communicate here.

Why?

This is not easy for me to say.

I've been very self -centered.

I know I may not show it, but...

Well, I'm very appreciative that you
came back here to live with me after

mother died.

I just want you to know that I'm willing
to change.

Yeah, I've heard that one before. Just
hear me out.

Why? You don't like Eric and you're
never going to just because he's an

man. I know I said that. You haven't
even tried to get to know him, Daddy.

bright and he's funny, but that doesn't
matter to you. Emily. I love him, Dad.

And he loves me, and there's nothing you
can do about it. You're too young to

get married.

How old were you and Mom when you got
married? Times were different. You see?

You haven't changed.

And you're never going to change.

You make me so mad! Where are you going,
Emily?

I'm going to see Eric.

Hey, you musclehead freak.

I'm talking to you wimps in there. You
can't treat us like this.

What was that, maggot?

You, uh, you got a problem?

Yeah. I'm sick and tired of you hiding
behind that rating on your sleeve.

Yeah?

Yeah. You were old, Navy.

We take this outside, settle us like
men.

Yeah, yeah. What do you want? You want a
piece of me, too?

Uh, hey.

Yeah, I do.

What's so funny?

Man to man, huh?

That's right, man to man.

Man to man.

Mark.

Take your blood on my uniform.

What now?

We beat him up.

That's your plan?

Hey, got a better idea? Look familiar?

That was you in the tattoo part.

Yeah, that was me.

Moth? It's not finished.

Look, there he goes.

Emily.

Let's go.

Come on, let's go. Emily,

what are you doing here? I came to see
you. What are you doing here? The

lieutenant ordered me to escape.

What? Listen, I've got somewhere I've
got to get to fast.

Why? What are you doing? Don't stop the
car. I've got to get over to Lakeshore

Drive now, you understand?

You know what, buddy? Take a cab. Lions
are at stake.

Listen, I don't have time to explain.

Look, give me one reason why I should
help you. Why should she help?

I'll explain later. Emily, drive.

It's my dad.

Ricky?

Are you following that car?

Yes, sir.

Help!

You passed it. Passed what?

You passed where I gotta go. Turn
around, would you please? Fine.

I didn't know you could drive like that.

Better die.

He's right up here on the left. Not this
one, but the next one. Hey.

Eric, where are you going? To help.

Wait, to help with what?

That alone.

There they are. Your father. Get him.

Good enough.

Toward me. Very slowly.

Put your head behind your head.

Oh, my God.

Can you stop that? Not over the city.
It'd be a disaster.

What are you doing?

The manual override.

2180, get it out over the lake.

Is that going to work?

I need a wind reading.

Roger that.

East, south, east.

Adjust five knots.

Aye, aye, sir.

I hope this works.

Yeah, so do I.

You trained on that weapon, sailor?

Negative, sir, but I read about it.

No sweat.

It's working.

It's working.

Come on, come on.

We can stand down, sir.

Stand down? Hell, I think I'll sit down.

So how are they doing?

They're doing good.

But Jensen looks like he's in pain and
he's not even eating. When did I lose

control over this?

I'm sorry, what's your name again?
Patrick. Patrick Grant. I mean, look at

Patrick. You know, I mean, I take a
little initiative and suddenly now my

career is riding on an order of buffalo
wings.

McGinty's buffalo wings.

Do not forget.

Great. Great.

Yes, sir.

Lieutenant Nowicki.

You are modest to a fault. Tell me, son.

How did you know all about... Oh, uh...
That's, uh... Confidential,

sir. Even to an admiral?

Well, yes, sir. I'm afraid so.

Ah!

Good job up there, sailor. Thank you,
sir.

And I don't know how you got caught up
in all this, Emily, but it seems to me

that you saved the day.

Well, like father, like daughter.

I could never face losing you, Emily.

You never will, Daddy.

I promise.

Roger that.

Uh, Noiki.

Uh, Lieutenant.

If you're not busy this evening... Oh,
uh, well, sir, I think I, uh...

I need to give back to my superiors.

Say no more, Lieutenant.

Understood.

Thanks, sir.

My money is on the Chesnian because I
think the Lelotnian, he's going to

You know what? I think I've got
something here.

Buffalo wing diplomacy.

Hey.

Jerry, guess what? I've got to ride in
the helicopter.

Henry, Vice President Gore's on the
phone for you.

Did I miss something?

Was that Mr. Henry?

Yeah, he's on the phone with the vice
president.

If I don't find a sitter by tonight, I'm
going to have to cancel my date with

the undersecretary of the State
Department.

I'm not Jenison.

No way, it's Bob.

All right, I'll help you out, but you
have to cover for me tomorrow when I

tea with the Lobotny Consulate, okay?

All right, deal.

Okay, cool.

Sorry, Gary, were you saying something?

Huh?

How was your date?

What? Your date with the Admiral's
daughter.

Oh, it was, uh...

Boring.

And I'm telling you I want the red tape
to disappear.

I am personally recommending that seaman
Eric Van Owen be accepted to the Naval

Academy in Annapolis.

Come in.

Tell the congressman that I will be
expecting his endorsement.

Yes, Lieutenant?

You wanted to see me, sir?

I did.

Lieutenant Nowicki, reporting as
ordered.

Nowicki?

You're not in a wiggy.

I'm not?

Maybe one person can't change the world.

But one person can give it a nudge.

And you know, sometimes that's enough.

More tomorrow night at 7 o 'clock. The
Mail on Sunday recently described us as

the most watchable channel in existence
and utterly compulsive.

Well, we do try.

This is Hallmark and makes tonight an
award -winning crime series that's now

part of Hallmark's weekend.

Law and order very shortly.
