-Hurry up!
-Right behind you, Stu.

This is Stuart Dunston,

reporting from
Camp Stronghold Freedom,

in Karshi Khanabad,
Uzbekistan,

where a contingent of
Navy Seabees is hard at work

on an essential but little-seen
part of the war effort,

creating a path
for the American ground forces--

-[explosion]
-[soldier] Incoming!

Hit the deck!

Get down!

[Dunston] Keep rolling!

[machine gun fire]

[bullets ricocheting]

-I hope you got that.
-Oh, yeah!

[whooping]

Way to go!

Yeah!

[roars]

Man, look at this!
Look at this!

Out of the way,
out of the way.

Come around!
Come around!

You saved my life,
Petty Officer!

I mean, you saved
all of our lives.

You're a hero! What's your name?
Where you from?

[panting]
Get away from me.

We're from ZNN! I mean...

Don't worry about it.

[opening theme music playing]

[SECNAV] I've come
to a difficult decision.

I've decided to act
on Commander Lindsey's
recommendations

concerning your office
and its operations.

I'm sorry to hear that, sir.

I don't like it, A.J.,
but...

when you see it here,
in black and white,

it's, well,
it's just indefensible.

You can't blame
the messenger, A.J.

-No, sir.
-There's nepotism in the office,

conflicts of interest,
budget overruns.

Then there's the bad press,
the unpopular verdicts in court,

not to mention
lawyers flying jets.

Chief of Information
wants to detail

a new Public Affairs Officer
just to look into the fallout

from JAG Corps.

Obviously, Mr. Secretary,
you've, uh,

lost confidence
in my ability to command.

I haven't finalized
my decision yet.

I want you to take this
and review it.

Rebut it, if you can,
then come back to me

with something that'll
get CHINFO back in the box,

and maybe I'll reconsider.

Yes, sir.

And don't take
too long, A.J.

Appropriations hearings
start next week.

I won't be able
to get the budget we need

with this hanging
over my head.

Understood.

That'll be all.

Commander, I may need
to meet with you

in regards to this matter.

I'll be at your
service, sir.

I'm sure you will.

[Dunston]
As our brave men and women

carry out their mission to
liberate the people of Iraq,

there are heroes
behind the scenes, as well.

What we're about to show you
is actual raw footage

taken two days ago
in Central Asia.

Get down!

[machine gun fire]

[automatic gunfire]

[Dunston]
Shocking as this footage is,

e wouldn't be here to show it

if it wasn't for
the courage and bravery

of one of those
fighting Seabees,

Petty Officer Third Class
Steven Wilson,

who single-handedly saved
the lives of dozens of men,

including my own.

Petty Officer Wilson declined
to speak with us at the time,

but in just a few hours,
his unit will be landing here

at the Norfolk
Naval Air Station,

home from deployment
in the Middle East.

That's why I'm here:
to greet a hero.

And you can see it live on ZNN.

Stay with us.
This is Stuart Dunston.

How'd your meeting go, sir?

Well, Commander Lindsey
has dredged up

every irrelevant smear
he could put his hands on.

[ chuckles]

Never mind that Navy JAG Corps
handles more cases

with less personnel
than the Army or the Air Force.

We get too much bad press.

We're, uh... we're a problem

for the Chief of Information.

Hell, read the damn thing
yourself.

-[knocking on door]
-Excuse me, sir, could
this have anything to do

with the decision in
the friendly fire case?

Obviously, SECNAV
wanted a conviction
and didn't get one.

Oh, Lieutenant,
this is about everything!

Unpopular verdicts,
for God's sake!

Never mind justice was served!

What's the SECNAV
going to do, sir?

Well, he's thinking about
firing me.

Well, I mean, it's, uh...
happened on my watch.

I got to take responsibility
for it, so...

best course of action
is for me to retire.

-You can't be serious, sir.
-Why not?

Well, Admiral...

What?

It appears to me, sir,

you're making a decision
in the heat of the moment.

No, not at all-- I've been
thinking about it for weeks.

I haven't seen
my daughter in Italy
for I don't know how long,

and, uh, Meredith and I are...

well, we're planning
to get married.

Oh, that's great, sir!

I mean, congratulations!
That's great.

Thank you. What the hell
are you all doing in my office?
Dismissed!

-Aye, sir.
-Aye, sir.

[whirring]

Got any plans
for liberty, Wilson?

No.

No family around here?

No family. Period.

Just me.

[applause and cheering]

[chanting]
U.S.A.! U.S.A.!

[whooping and cheering]

[boy] Yeah!

All right!

Petty Officer Wilson!
Stuart Dunston, ZNN news.

-Come on, get me out of here.
-Hey, hey, hey...

-How does it feel to be
America's latest hero?
-Don't jostle the man!

He's a finely tuned
fighting machine.

Well, one thing you can say
about Commander Lindsey:
he's thorough.

Obsessive-compulsive's
more like it.
You're a "security risk."

-Hey, you're a "loose cannon."
-Yeah, don't I know it.

I show "consistent and reckless
disregard for responsibility."

And I love this one:
"Unsupervised T.A.D. with
members of the opposite sex."

You and me.

[sighs]

This is all ridiculous.

I can't believe the admiral
would just roll over.

There's got to be
a reason for it.

He wants to get married.

No, that's not the reason.
There's something else.

Well, I don't know, Mac.

Whatever it is...

Lindsey's upset
because he believes

the admiral scuttled his career,
so he's out for revenge,

but he's acted too
hastily this time.

Revenge is a dish
best served cold.

Somehow, I don't feel better.

[petty officer]
Hey, Wilson!

-Yo!
-Front and center.

What's the deal?

You got a visitor.

Says her name
is Jennifer Bruder.

You're going to need
that charm, hero.

[chuckling quietly]

Hello, Jenny.

[voice quivering]
I saw you on television.

I figured.

Look, what's going on?

I thought you were dead!

I thought you died
in the Tower with Tom!

-I'm sorry.
-You're sorry?

Okay, so, if you're alive,

does that mean that Tom is?

He didn't make it, Jenny.

So he didn't make it,
but you did?

I told you I was sorry.

What are you sorry for?

For what? For surviving?

For not calling me and
telling me you were alive?

-For not telling me
my husband was dead?
-For all of that!

I put your name on the list
of the people that died in 9/11.

Were you even
in the World Trade Center?

Yes!

[sobbing]

I was there.

Then you know for sure
that he's dead.

Why are you pretending
to be someone you're not?

I don't-- I don't get it.

And what happened
to the money?

-Money's gone, Jenny.
-Millions of dollars
are just-just gone?

-I don't believe you.
-It's true.

Look...

I don't know how I got out
of that building alive.

I don't remember
most of it.

I-- I had what they call
survivor's guilt,

I-- I think.
Tommy was my best friend,

and why he had to die,
and not me--

there's no answer
for that question, Jenny.

-But there just isn't.
-No. I want to know
what happened!

I can't tell you.
I don't remember!

[door slams]

I don't care what
you call yourself now!

You were the last person
to see my husband alive,

and I want to know
everything!

I want to know
what his last words were.

I want to know how he died.

Look, all I can tell you is
the man that I used to be

died in the World Trade Center
along with your husband.

I've started a new life.

That's all there is to it.

Well, that's not good enough.

That's all I can give you.

Then I'll find out for myself.

[door slams]

[sighs heavily]

[Chegwidden]
Petty Officer Third Class
Steven Wilson.

You may have seen him
on television.

He single-handedly stopped

a suicide attack
on a Marine Camp

Stronghold Freedom
in Uzbekistan.

Incidentally, he saved the life
of ZNN reporter Stuart Dunston

who has kept
Petty Officer Wilson
in the news ever since.

And as a result of that,

a woman by the name
of Jennifer Bruder

has come forward to inform
the command at Norfolk

that the Navy's newest hero
is, in fact,
not Petty Officer Wilson,

but a man by the name
of Matthew Divine

who is supposed
to have been killed

in the World Trade Center
attacks of 9/11.

A case of fraudulent enlistment,
sir?

Evidently. The Navy's Chief
of Civil Engineers

likes his heroes
controversy-free,

so he's asked for a discreet
JAGMAN investigation.

Understood, sir.

Commander Turner,

you'll proceed
to Norfolk and interview

Petty Officer Wilson or Divine
or whatever
the hell his name is.

-Yes, sir.
-And Commander Rabb,
you'll interview Mrs. Bruder

-at her home in New Jersey.
-Yes, sir.

I need both of you
to report back to me ASAP.
That'll be all.

[both]
Aye, aye, sir.

Tiner, are you sure
Commander Lindsey

didn't have access
to our personnel files?

Yes, ma'am.
They're under lock and key.

What about after hours?

Never happened, Colonel.
I checked.

He had to clear security
and sign the log book

every time he went in or out.

I just don't see how
he could have found out

all this nasty personal stuff
about everybody.

All in a single week.

Yeah, well, he's probably been
keeping a list for years

and this was his big chance
to get even with us

and show off
his lawyering skills.

The sick thing is is this is
what we do every day as lawyers.

He's turning our technique's
against us.

Which means
he's a clever lawyer,
but a lousy human being.

[Sheila] Teddy, honey?

There you are.

I was calling for you.

I'm sorry, sweetheart.
I didn't hear you.

-Aren't you going
into the office at all today?
-Uh, no, no.

I'm just going to, you know,
work from home.

Is everything okay, honey?

I mean, you seem kind of,
I don't know, distracted lately.

No, sweetheart.

Everything's fine.
Couldn't be better.

Okay, I'll see you. Love you.

Love you, too.

[Jennifer] The kids and I

almost lost the house
after Tom died.

If he hadn't been one
of the victims,

[sighs] the bank probably
would have foreclosed.

I'm very sorry
for your loss, Mrs. Bruder.

Thank you.

We're all right right now,
financially.

The 9/11 Victim Compensation
Fund has been

a godsend.

[sighs]

Matt Divine, the man that's
calling himself Steven Wilson,

he was my husband's
business partner.

What business were they in?

Investment banking.

They're venture capitalists.

They ran what was known
as an angel fund.

They got new ventures
off the ground

with high-risk early investment.

Their office was in
the World Trade Center.

Were they both in the building
when the planes hit?

Yeah, they were
always there early.

They worked late.

For Matt it was no problem

'cause he was single,
no family.

He was a workaholic.

But for Tom...

it was different...

cause he missed us...

and we missed him.

[Turner]
Petty Officer Steven Wilson?

Sir!

I'm Commander Turner
from the JAG Corps.

Good to meet you, sir.

Is Steven Wilson
your real name, Petty Officer?

-No, sir.
-Is Matthew Divine
your real name?

Yes, sir.

That presents us
with a problem, doesn't it?

How am I to address you?
Petty Officer Wilson
doesn't work anymore,

and Matthew Divine
is listed as dead

in the World Trade
Center on 9/11.

With the Commander's
permission, sir,

I'd like to be referred to
as Petty Officer Matthew Divine.

For that to happen,

you have a lot of explaining
to do, sailor.

RABB:
Did Matthew Divine tell you

why he decided to adopt
the new identity?

He really didn't tell me
anything.

You put his name
on the 9/11 victims list.

Can I get in trouble for that?

No, no. You did what
you thought was right.

I have to pick up my kids
in a few minutes.

Well, we'll wrap it up then.

Thank you for your time,
Mrs. Bruder.

Commander, I don't know
if this is going
to make any sense to you.

Matt Divine,
he was the last person

that saw my husband alive,

and I just... I have so many
unanswered questions.

I mean, supposedly,
they had a successful business,

but there was no money at all
in our bank account
after Tom died.

And it's not that we need
the money,

I just-- I want to know why.

I understand.

Really, do you?

Am I just being morbid?

When my dad was shot down
over Vietnam,
I felt the same way.

And I'm going to do everything
I can to help you.

-Thank you.
-Okay.

[Divine] My dad was
a Seabee, too.

Vietnam. I guess I always wanted
to join the Navy.

Why not join up
as Matthew Divine?

'Cause Matthew Divine had
a story going

and after September 11th,
I didn't like that story
anymore.

-What story was that?
-Make money.

Get other people's money,
use it to make more money,

lose money, use other people's
money to cover the losses.

That's all there was.

You ever read any
F. Scott Fitzgerald?

Some.

He wrote "There are no second
acts in American lives."

Now, after September 11th,

I realized that I had
a chance at a second act.

I could remake myself
into a better person.

All I had to do was go
on the street

and buy myself
a new identity and start over.

You had to go
and be a hero, huh?

Best thing I ever did
in my life.

Look what I get.

Tough assignment,
being a hero.

Commander, any chance
I can stay in the Navy?

Might be.
Might be, Petty Officer.

You're just going to have
to answer to the charges

and face an administrative
discharge board.

You up for that?

Yes, sir.

Hi. Is the admiral
in his office?

He is.
Oh, and by the way,

congratulations!

Thank you.

We are just thrilled
for the both of you.

Oh, well, as far as I know,

I think I'm the only one
getting this award.

Oh, I didn't know
anything about an award.

I was talking
about your engagement.

I mean, that's great.

It's good news
all the way around.

Huh.

[knocking]

Enter!

Hi!

Hey!

So is this Schuyler University's
Professor of The Year

-I'm looking at?
-[chuckles]

-I'm confused.
-About what?

Did you propose to me
when I wasn't present?

I'm sorry. I said that
for the benefit of the staff.

I was trying to come up
with a reason
for my retirement.

You're retiring?

Well, I was going
to talk about all of this
over dinner.

Slip it in between courses?

I have all these ideas
in my head.

I'm trying
to sort them out.

Pressures at work,
visiting Francesca, marriage

things like that, so...

Who's Francesca?

My daughter in Italy.

Oh.

You know, you never told me
her name?

Well, now I have. I know I've
mentioned my retirement.

I believe you said,

"One of these days
I'm going to retire."

Well, seems one
of these days is imminent.

Not to mention
all those wedding arrangements.

Sweetheart, I know
that we danced
around the subject.

Well, maybe it's time
we stopped dancing
and started talking.

You're right.

Is there something
you want to say to me?

Interested?

[laughs]

Not under these
circumstances.

Where are you going?

Why don't we get back
to this

when you're more prepared

and I know more
about what's going on?

What about dinner?

Enjoy it.

[sighs]

Excuse me, Admiral.

Can we talk for a minute?

Why not? Come on in.

I've made up dossiers

rebutting the allegations
of Commander Lindsey's

extremely biased report, sir.

Nice work, Colonel.

I'll pass them along
to the SECNAV.

-You still thinking
about resigning, sir?
-Yes.

Those dossiers make
it abundantly clear
why you shouldn't resign,

and why the SECNAV
shouldn't fire you.

Well, I appreciate that.

Excuse me, sir,

but I believe you should listen
to what I have to say.

Have a seat.

You told the office
this morning

that you were retiring

because you and Meredith
were getting married.

I saw Meredith on her way out
a few minutes ago

and she told me that you
made that story up on the spot.

Guilty as charged.

You don't want to retire, sir.

And the only reason
you're even considering it

is to protect us,
myself, Commander Rabb,

Lieutenant Roberts,
Lieutenant Sims...

because we're the ones
intentionally smeared
by Commander Lindsey.

You think Commander Lindsey
is out to get you personally.

That he's just dragging us
through the mud to do it.

Yes.

Well, it's his motive
I'm questioning, sir.

He told Commander Rabb that he
wanted this office broken apart

and us scattered
to the four winds.

Well, if that's the case,
then your resignation

is of no benefit
to us or the Navy.

Or to me?

It's absolutely not
in your character to cave in.

And I refuse to accept that
from you for any reason.

[clears throat]
Are you done?

No, sir.

You are offering
to sacrifice your career

and, with all due respect, sir,
that offer is not accepted.

I hope that'll be all.

Yes, sir.

Mac?

Thanks.

Didn't I say he was handsome?

It's in both of your blood.
It's obvious.

Brother.

Good to see you.

And here she is,
my fiancee.

Galina...

Let me introduce
my younger brother.

It's nice to meet you.

Harm,
this is Galina Boricova.

It's a pleasure to meet you.

Thank you.

Come. Sit, sit.

-Isn't she beautiful?
-Yes.

On the Aeroflot flight
all the businessmen
are flirting with her.

She's by far the prettiest
of the flight attendants.

Oh, I can see that.

So, Harm, you are going
to be my best man.

[chuckles slightly]

Are you sure about this?

I mean, we didn't exactly
part in the best of ways.

I told you I would get over it.

Then I was lonely.

Now, I'm not.

So, will you come to Russia

and stand beside me?

I'd be honored.

So, we need drinks for a toast.

I'm buying.

Hang on just a second.

So, uh, have you heard
from Lieutenant Singer

since she called you
back in January?

No. Why?

Is something bothering you?
What is it?

I forced her
to make the call.

She made it outside here,
in fact, on my cell phone.

Sergei, I don't think she
was telling you the truth

about you not being
the baby's father.

[chuckles]

Why would she lie?

Well, you just can never
tell with Lieutenant Singer.

Oh, it was what you call
a one-stop shop.

It's a one-night stand.

Whatever. It wasn't even
the whole night.

It was nothing.

It was a way to say goodbye.

I don't know, Sergei.
The timing's...

Coincidence.

I mean, trust me, brother,

Lieutenant Singer is a woman
who would have no trouble

with more than one man
in her life.

All right?

All right.

So, have you heard
the scuttlebutt around town?

You're going to retire
so I don't have to fire you.

Well, sir, this town
is a gossip factory.

Washington runs on gossip.

Mmm. So is it true?

Mr. Secretary, I serve
at your pleasure.

Now don't be coy with me, A.J.
We've got a problem.

All I want
is what's best for the Navy.

And so do I, sir.

And that's why I've come
to realize

that my resignation
wouldn't solve anything.

I think you'll find that
Commander Lindsey's report

is very biased.

Here's the point-
by-point rebuttal

of every one of his allegations
put together by my staff.

Good.

You and Commander Lindsey
go back a long ways, don't you?

We have a history.

I probably picked the wrong
person to handle this matter.

I should have realized
that Lindsey had an ax to grind.

But now the issue's
on the table.
I can't just take it off.

Now, this may help,
but what's it going to change?

Certainly not the facts.

No, sir, but it may change
your opinion of the facts.

A.J., I need more.

Scotch, I mean.

Want a refill?

I'll do the honors this time.

[scoffs]

[Turner] Give me one good reason
why Matthew Devine
shouldn't stay in the Navy.

Fraudulent enlistment,
using fake I.D.

Allowing his name to remain
on the 9/11 victim's list.

Did he benefit from it?

Did anyone make a claim
against him? No.

Matthew Devine is a hero, Harm.
He saved a lot of lives.

His service record
is spotless.

It's what he did before he
got into the service, Sturgis.

And what was that?
Did he commit a crime?
Defraud anyone?

Is the law after him?

Not that I found yet.

He failed in his business, Harm.
He want's to get on
with his life.

Look, so does Mrs. Bruder.

At the very least,
he needs to sit down with her,

answer her questions

and tell her what he knows.

We can't force him to do that.

-[sighs]
-He's in the Navy.

I mean, can't someone
just order him to talk to me?

It doesn't work that way,
Mrs. Bruder.

I've asked him again
and he's refused.

Now, according to Navy rules,

Petty Officer Devine
has a right to privacy.

So that's it, then?

He gets to have a new life
and I'm supposed to--

I'm supposed to what?

Spend the rest of mine
wondering?

I wish I could just accept
the fact that he's gone

and that I'll never know
anything more than that.

But I can't.

Not while I know that
Matt Devine is alive.

Have you ever considered that...

maybe you're better off
not knowing.

You said that you had
to find out

what happened
to your father.

No, no, just tell me this:

You were able to
find out the truth.

Now, are you better off?

Or are you sorry?

I'm not sorry.

I think I have an idea.

[woman:
The board will come to order.

In the matter of construction
man Matthew Devine,

a.k.a. Petty Officer
Third Class Steven Wilson,

the respondent
is being processed

for administrative separation
by reason

of misconduct due
to fraudulent enlistment
in the Navy.

Commander Turner, what is
the respondent's position
on the misconduct?

The respondent
is admitting the misconduct

and will present a case
for retention, Lieutenant.

Very well.

Commander Rabb,
does the government intend

to put on any evidence
on the issues of separation
and characterization?

We do.

You may call your
first witness.

The government calls
Jennifer Bruder.

[melancholy music playing]

Commander Turner.

With the Senior
Member's permission,

I need a minute to confer
with the respondent.

-Very well.
-Thank you.

Do I have to be
in the room for this?

Why, is she going to say
something to hurt your case?

No, of course not.

It's just that...

why does she have to even
be here at all?

The government presents
aggravation to support

separating you from the Navy.

We present extenuation

and mitigation to support
keeping you in.

Is there something
between you two
you haven't told me?

No, it's my partner's wife.
I don't even know her very well.

I don't care how uncomfortable
this makes you feel.

If you want a career
in the Navy,

then act like you belong
in this service.

We are ready, Lieutenant.

Mrs. Bruder, how long have you
known Matthew Devine?

About three years.

Three years before...

-Before 9/11?
-Yes.

Which is when you
lost your husband
in the World Trade Center?

Yes.

Matt was with my husband
when he died.

They were best friends
and business partners.

So did you spend a lot of time
with Matthew Devine then?

No, not really.

He had his life,
and we had ours...

Tom had...

He had his family and
Petty Officer Devine was single.

Yes, so we didn't
socialize that much together.

Can you tell us, Mrs. Bruder,

why your husband is not here
today, but Matthew Devine is?

I can't, cause...

cause Matt won't tell me
what happened that day.

Do you feel that
Matthew Devine

is a person of good character,
Mrs. Bruder?

I don't know anymore.

My husband liked him,
and I think he trusted him,

but after Tom died,
there was--

there was no more money
left in our bank accounts.

And I don't know why.

-How did you feel,
Mrs. Bruder, when you saw
Matthew Devine on television

under the name of Steven Wilson?

I felt like I was dreaming.

I was wondering if Matt
was alive, maybe Tom was, too.

I just couldn't understand
why he didn't call us

to tell us what happened.

For months after 9/11,
I couldn't sleep
for more than a few hours

without...

[voice breaking]
without waking up.

I kept imagining what
it must have been like

to be in that building
when those planes hit.

Was he one-- was he one
of the ones who jumped?

Did he try to call me
on his cell phone...

but he just
couldn't get through?

I just couldn't stand
not knowing.

My life stopped on 9/11.

I felt like I was sleepwalking.

[sniffs]

And then I'd wake up
and a month had gone by, and...

and my son was an inch taller
and my daughter lost a tooth,

and I couldn't remember
anything in between.

But in time, you got over this,
correct?

Until Matt Devine came back
from the dead.

And then it started
all over again.

And now,

I can't see the future,
so I can't move forward,

and I can't have the past,
so I can't make peace with it.

Thank you, Mrs. Bruder.

Has this helped at all?

I-- I don't feel like any of
this has to do with Matt Devine.

Oh, on the contrary,
this has everything to do

with Mathew Devine.

[Manetti]
Good morning, everyone.

Good morning,
Commander Manetti.

Nice to have
you back, ma'am.

Thank you.

Lieutenant.

Commander Manetti.

Is this still my office?

Yes, ma'am.
Just keeping it warm for you.

Well, thank you.

-Don't you think this is
kind of funny, sir?
-Funny?

The Commander's been gone
for weeks, and now she
comes back?

/Right as this office
is about to be broken up?

We've been wondering
how Commander Lindsey

found so much dirt on everybody
in such a short time.

You think
Commander Manetti...?

We've always wondered if
she was a SECNAV spy.

-Welcome back, Commander.
-Thank you, sir.

It's good to be back.

CINCPACFLEET sent me
a P-Four message yesterday

-saying what a fine job you did.
-That's good to hear, sir.

I trust that you found your
T-A-D at Pearl not too
difficult.

It was a pleasant
assignment, Admiral.

-Well, nice to have you back.
-Thank you, sir.

Don't you three have
something to be doing?

[all] Yes, sir.

[Turner] This isn't a trial,
so I'm not going to ask you
a lot of questions.

Just tell us why you want
to stay in the Navy.

To do that, sir,
I have to explain

why I joined the Navy
in the first place.

Tommy Bruder and I were
fraternity brothers in college.

After I went belly-up
in the dot-com bust,

he suggested that I go
up to New York

and go into business with him.

He was into making money,

and I'd learned a lot during
the Internet bubble.

Mostly how gullible
people were.

How you could sell ideas
and promises,

and then cook the books to make
it seem as though

the company was profitable.

I guess you could say
that I corrupted him.

If the markets had
turned around,

then we would have been all
right, but that didn't happen.

And every day we were sinking
deeper and deeper

until finally the morning
of 9/11.

I didn't know what
we were going to do--

file for bankruptcy,
start another scam...

There was just no money left.

We were arguing when
the plane hit.

Didn't know what
it was at first.

Building just... shook

like a giant earthquake.

So much...

smoke and dust, and...

I saw Tommy.

Part of the floor
had collapsed down
on top of him,

and he was pinned.

I tried pulling him out,
but I couldn't budge him.

He was having trouble breathing,

so I got down on
my knees to hear him,
and he said...

he said, "Promise me that
Jenny never finds out

what we've done."

I made him that promise--

before he died.

I'm going to break it now
because I know
that he'd never want his wife,

who he loved
more than anything,

to suffer because
I stayed silent.

I joined the Navy because
I didn't want to be
Matthew Devine anymore.

Now I know
you can't run away
from who you are.

The Navy's the best thing
that ever happened to me.

I'd like Matthew Devine to have
a chance to become the man
that Steve Wilson was.

Thank you.

[Turner]
Lieutenant, Constructionman
Matthew Devine

has previously accepted
non-judicial punishment
of a reduction in rate,

forfeiture of half
a month's pay for two months

and 60 days restriction.

We now offer letters

from Constructionman
Devine's OIC

and members
of his Seabee unit

attesting to his bravery
and courage under fire

at Camp Stronghold Freedom,

which we hope the Board
will take

into consideration
in making its recommendations.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Seaman Devine,
by a vote of three-zero,

this Board finds that
there is a basis for separation

as a result of fraudulent
enlistment.

However, also by a vote
of three to zero,

this Board finds that you
should be retained

on active duty
in the Navy.

These proceedings
are concluded.

Thank you very much.

Congratulations.
We did okay.

I'm glad that he got
what he wanted.

And I did, too.

Thanks for believing in me.

You took a chance.

Yeah, and I am not sorry.

[sighs]

I'm going to get
better now.

Just like you.

It's not that you want
to forget-- it's...

you don't want grief
to control you.

I don't think it will.

-[elevator dings]
-Thank you.

[phone ringing]

Da. Sergei?

No, no, it's Harm.

Is that you, Galina?

Yes, I am Galina.

Is Sergei there?

No.

I am wait for him.
Many hours now.

Oh, well, I was hoping
to see you both

-before you leave.
-Leave?

Leave?

For Russia.

Ah, yes, we go tonight.

All right, tell Sergei
that I called.

Ask him to call me back, please.

Yes, you're welcome.

Thanks.

[knocking]

Sir, you wanted to see me?

es, come in.

I've put an end
to the inquiry
into the discrepancies

at JAG headquarters.

All of which,
I now realize

were blown completely
out of proportion,

by you, for personal reasons.

-Sir, please let me...
-Do me a favor
and don't say anything.

Yes, sir.

Admiral Chegwidden,
have regained

complete confidence
in your command.

A formal letter
of apology

to you and your staff
is forthcoming.

Commander Lindsey,

I have started another inquiry,
into you.

As of this moment,
you're relieved of your duties

in this office,
and I want you
out of the building, ASAP!

Yes, sir.

Dismissed!

Aye, aye, sir.

Goodbye.

Surprised?

Yes, sir.

You want to know
what made up my
mind for me?

I assumed it was
the defense put up

by my staff.

Yes, there's that,
but more.

A secret weapon
came to your defense.

Lieutenant Commander
Tracy Manetti.

And when I first
asked you

to bring her
on board,

you assumed that what I really
wanted was a spy in your midst.

Well, no, sir.

Well, you
were right.

She was my eyes and ears
in your office.

And therefore she was able

to give me
an objective evaluation

of Lindsey's report.

She was scathing.

She called it a "hatchet job."

I hope you're not
too disappointed in me.

No, sir.

Um, will Commander Manetti
be staying with us at JAG?

For another week or two.

I have another assignment
in mind for her shortly.

Well, I'll make sure that
I thank her for her work.

Oh, please do.
I'd appreciate that.

-Keep up the good work, Admiral.
-Aye, aye, sir.

And the next time,
drinks are on you.
