Look at me. Look at me. Look at me. Look at me.

Look at me.

I'm not him, okay?

All right?

He's over there.

Is he dead?

He's unconscious.

He banged his head on the floor when I disarmed him.

Oh, my God.

He cut me.

It's not your blood.

Right. Maybe you should pass on the captain's mask.

Sorry I'm late, sir. I got caught on a call.

Remain fanning, Commander.

This won't take long.

Attention to orders.

During a combat mission over the former Yugoslavia, Lieutenant Commander Harmon

Rav Jr. was flying escort for an F -14 photo aircraft when it was badly damaged

by hostile anti -aircraft fire.

To prevent his comrades from being captured or killed, Commander Raab

unhesitatingly and with consummate skill used his windscreen to push the

aircraft by use of its lowered tail hook 12 miles to the sea where both pilots

in Rio were rescued.

Commander Raab's gallantry was in the finest tradition of the naval services

reflects great credit upon himself, naval aviation, and the United States

He is hereby awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross Second Award.

Congratulations, Commander.

Thank you, sir.

Eddie?

Now, since you're not married and your mother's not present, I'm damn sure I'm

willing.

I'll ask the colonel to do the honors.

Gently, Marine.

Sir,

I'm flattered. I'm also a little confused.

I believe I requested no ceremony be conducted.

Yeah, I know. I ignored it.

Take a seat. I was just about to discuss your next case.

Last month, Marine Private William Fawson, um,

um, allegedly assaulted a young woman outside a night spot.

Dragged her at knife point into a construction site.

Tempted to rape her.

I'm familiar with the case, sir. A city councilman's daughter. Another Marine

saved her, correct?

Corporal Keeley Woods, sir.

You and the lieutenant will prosecute in private lawson's court -martial?

Yes, sir.

Now, for obvious reasons, the press has taken an acute interest.

Build your case carefully.

Tighten every bolt.

Understood, sir.

Commander Matoni, you have the thankless job of defending the most unpopular

Marine in Norfolk.

I accept the challenge, sir.

Colonel, you'll take on the defense of Petty Officer Richard Brindisi. He was

arrested in Norfolk by the U .S. Customs K -9 Enforcement Team as he disembarked

the destroyer USS Grace Hopper.

Charged is possession of marijuana.

Petty Officer is maintaining his innocence. Article 32 hearing has been

convened. Sir, might I request for prosecution on this one?

I see an easy score here, Commander.

No, it's all, sir.

Just an opportunity to lock horns with a worthy adversary.

Brumby, you give new meaning to the word enthusiasm.

Shall I take that as a compliment, sir? Please do.

Admiral, sir.

Sir, about the medal. I'd like to make it clear I do appreciate the honor. I

just trying to avoid any references to my carrier activities as a way of

my renewed commitment to Jags.

I'm happy.

In fact, sir, I'm ecstatic to be rubbing shoulders once again in what I consider

to be the top JAG outfit in the military.

Clear to me. Anyone confused by the commander's feelings?

That'll be all.

I'm overcompensating. Yes, you are.

I just can't help feeling everybody's in the boat and I'm being towed behind in

the dinghy.

Could it be because you're the only one using nautical metaphors?

It's got to be a period of adjustment for all of us.

My suggestion is don't push it, you know? Let it happen. We'll get the

back.

Well, Brumby certainly dances to your beat.

By that you mean?

He's still on your scent.

We're friends.

No man is interested in being friends with a woman who looks like you.

Well, except for me, of course, because, you know, I'm like a brother, but...

Anyway, to the point, you encourage him.

How? How?

He says he wants to lock horns with you. You smile.

Well, what should I have done? Ordered him to drop and give me 50?

You like him.

Look, you haven't been here in six months.

So the fine points of my relationship with anyone are lost on you.

And, you know, when it comes to my relationships, you are not necessarily

need -to -know basis.

Yes, ma 'am.

Colonel, the corporal's testimony is essential to our case.

I understand, Commander.

But the corporal is reserved by nature, and the rescue of that girl has made him

a media celebrity.

He's uncomfortable with the limelight.

You'll need to tread lightly and keep the press at bay. I understand that,

The problem we're facing is with time constraints. Look, I like this kid. He's

got grit.

He was back to duty the day his stitches were removed.

His CO tells me he's developed faster than any Marine in his command.

Colonel Hagsitter, when you say that he feels uncomfortable with the

limelight... He had to be talking to accepting his Navy Marine Corps medal.

Something that big, can you imagine?

Here's a guy who would rather wrestle with a knife -wielding rapist than

an awards ceremony.

Sir, how are we to proceed if we encounter similar resistance?

Make no mistake.

I want Private Clawson's ass on toast.

Cut the corporal a mile of slack.

Work your magic.

Aye, aye, sir.

Woo -hoo -hoo!

Georgetown got the ball!

Allen Iverson doesn't use a hook shot.

He does now, sir.

It's a lost art.

Of course, there are those times when lanes plug, you can't get set. That's

you have.

You play, sir?

A little.

You want to play one -on -one, sir?

Not today, Corporal. Today we talk.

I'm Lieutenant Commander Rob. This is Lieutenant Roberts. We're with the Judge

Advocate General Corps.

You want me to testify, right, sir?

We do.

Why, sir?

The girl can tell you everything.

We need an eyewitness, otherwise it's just word against word.

You're the legs of our case, Corporal.

I can't handle this, sir.

I'll freeze up there.

Well, we could coach you on what to say, how to say it.

What about, um, I can't think of it.

You know, when the testimony's written down.

Affidavits aren't allowed.

You have to appear.

I understand it's a challenge, Corporal, but look at it this way.

Failed to testify, private cloth, and could be acquitted.

How would you feel then?

I'll have to be at the motor pool in 11 minutes, sir.

You should know, Corporal, we can order you to appear if necessary.

Not that we expect that to happen.

No, sir.

You expect me to get on board, right, sir?

Just think about it, all right?

Aye, sir.

When are you off duty, Corporal?

In two hours, sir.

We'll come by the barracks then, all right?

Aye, sir.

That was quite the shot, sir.

Surprised the hell out of me, too.

The defense moves to dismiss all charges, sir.

On what grounds, Colonel?

There is no evidence.

The U .S. Customs Lab lost it?

And no field test was performed.

Sir, the government can produce Gary Sharps, the customs enforcement officer

took possession of the marijuana.

It's not marijuana if you can't prove it. Refer to it as substance for the

being. Yes, sir.

Mr. Sharps was alerted by the U .S. Customs detective doc, and then a search

the petty officer's gear uncovered the substance, which Mr. Sharps inspected

concluded to be marijuana.

The customs officer's testimony is unverifiable.

It's not only unfair to my client, but to the entire notion of due process.

Mr. Sharps has been seizing illegal shipments of drugs for more than 18

He knows marijuana when he sees it. We're going to need more than his

Commander. Well, he qualifies as an expert witness, sir.

Besides, according to the captain of the Great Hopper, Petty Officer Brindisi

has been under suspicion for some time. Which proves nothing.

Colonel, you'll get your chance to cross -examine.

But, sir... Uh -uh.

I'm not going to lay you out the back door.

Villalobos, McIntyre.

Cell duty, Moore.

Mayor Woods.

There it is, sir.

Eddie, this is Corporal Woods' bunk, yes?

Yes, sir.

You know where he is?

No, sir. I think he left for the PX about an hour ago.

With all his gear.

Corporal Woods had no special liberty.

Easy way.

Can you tell me why?

You're not assuming we had something to do with it, sir? He was here. You talked

to him, he's gone.

Sir, we just gave it to him straight.

No pressure of any kind.

We told him to think about it, sir.

Now, sir, I also thought he had a right to know we could order him to appear if

necessary. That might have done it.

Sir... And if so, the fault lies with the corporal.

Duty is an obligation, not an option.

He knows that.

On the other hand...

This is a lousy way to get his record dinged.

I'll hold off reporting the incident.

Would you like a second crack at your witness?

Very much, sir.

He's from New Brunswick, New Jersey.

They usually go home.

When you find him, you tell him this. I offer forgiveness only.

If he wants back, he'll have to prove he's the Marine we believe him to be.

Aye, aye.

I was around the corner at a pub, beat a bloke at darts, so I spent my winnings

on a couple of Caesar salads.

I was actually in the middle of making dinner, but I haven't opened a can yet,

so come in.

Thanks.

First time I've gotten past the door.

Must be living right.

Look, I can't take a salad and throw you out, but don't get too comfortable. I'm

working. Actually, so am I.

See, I was thinking, if you're inclined to ask for a deal for Petty Officer

Brindisi, let's say a bad conduct discharge with no confinement or

pay, I might be in a position to... Weasel your way out of a weak case?

No, you're in evidentiary hell, Commander. It's not in the best interest

client to give you a leg up.

Your client has a history of suspicious behavior.

Besides, I have two parties that identified the substance as marijuana.

Two?

The customs officer and the dog.

You're right.

I need to meet this animal.

No, wait a minute. No, my client has been falsely accused, and it was this

who first sniffed him out. So, set it up for tomorrow.

No, this is something that I would do.

Yeah, of course it is.

Blimey, I like our courtroom battles.

You're keeping me sharp, Mac.

No, no, no. Bad strategy.

See, you're acknowledging my power.

What, making you overconfident?

Truth is, I admire the way you work.

Your tenacity and persistence.

That's what gives you your age.

All right.

In the interest of fairness, I'll tell you what I like about the way you work.

You are able to distinguish between what you are and what you do.

You're a snake in the courtroom, but nowhere else.

And when you lose, you just shrug it off and you bounce back.

You know, you're also pretty creative.

That I would dispute.

But I have ways of compensating.

Like what?

My timing's pretty good.

I'll agree.

I enjoy the element of surprise.

Always works.

Thank you.

My first name.

Is that a good sign?

I'm not ready for this.

I'm sorry.

It's all right.

Is it?

But the salad's awfully good.

How did you spell it again?

K -E -E -L -Y -W -O -O -D -S.

What kind of a name is Keeley?

I don't know, ma 'am. We're just looking for his family's home address. We

thought we had the right one, but the people there didn't know who he was.

When was he a student here?

Class of 93.

I don't see it.

92?

94? No, 92.

No, 94.

There's no record of a Keeley Woods ever attending Edison.

Maybe he changed his name.

Uh, his records indicate he was a varsity basketball player.

Do you have team photos anywhere?

On the wall.

I don't think Corporal Woods ever played basketball at this school, bud.

How did we get ourselves talked into this?

We may not want to deal with it right now, sir, but even if we do track him

down, won't he have a credibility problem?

It could be a record mistake.

It only happens a thousand times a year.

So where do we look now?

Well, he knew a lot about the Georgetown basketball team three years ago. That's

pretty specific.

Think he's from D .C., sir?

When we get back, I'm going to check the college and semi -pro rosters. You take

that photo of him around the city's top playground, see if you can get an ID,

huh? Aye, aye, sir.

Might help to get into a game, too.

I only play basketball on the computer, sir.

I wouldn't mention that, bud.

306 narcotic seizures.

That considered good?

Those are Hall of Fame stats, ma 'am.

We're talking a street value over $18 million.

How long has Jingo been in service?

Since 1987.

He's getting up there, isn't he? No, not really.

We're still using dogs that are two, three years older.

Would you walk him around for me?

Yeah, sure.

Oh, boy.

Good boy.

Why are his eyes cloudy?

Cataracts. That can't be good.

It's not his eyes that make him useful, Colonel. He can still sniff a rose petal

in a pile of dung.

Thanks for the image.

I appreciate you bringing him by.

You're welcome, ma 'am.

Excuse me.

Sure.

Good boy.

Here.

Hey, you.

Does he feed him?

I had to ride up in the elevator with him. He's going to pass out.

He's an old dog.

Yeah, so am I.

But I still do a few tricks.

That's all I've noticed.

Am I correct in assuming that we're right?

I mean, after last night.

We're fine.

Because I would kick myself if it had an effect on our working relationship.

Well, you will if you don't drop it.

Yes, ma 'am.

Hey, Popeye.

Give us a ride in your boat.

I left it back in the bathtub.

Then why you looking for it here?

Actually, I'm looking for a person. That's what I heard.

Yeah.

So where's this picture you've been showing around?

Hang on.

Do you know this man?

Where'd you get this?

Do you know him?

You think he's around here?

Look, I'm asking the questions here.

What's your name?

Toots.

That's it?

For your ears.

Well, Toots, I'm a Navy lawyer.

Corporal Woods is an important witness in a case that we're trying.

Who's that?

You're looking at him.

This is Fly.

Lamar Dunwoody?

Dunwoody?

Are you sure?

Of course I'm sure. This fool killed my brother.

Mr. Sharps, why did you search Petty Officer Mernizzi's gear bag?

Uh, Jingo scratched at it. And Jingo is?

My detector, Doug.

Your Honor, government exhibit D, Jingo's long and distinguished record.

Was there any hesitation or confusion in the way Jingo approached the bag?

Oh, no, he went right for it.

And when you searched it, what did you find?

A plastic bag containing marijuana.

Objection. Yet to be proven.

That's what we're trying to do here, Your Honor.

I'll allow it from this witness. His expertise has been established.

How did you determine it was marijuana?

I smelled and tasted it. It was top grade.

And what made it top grade, may I ask?

The fragrance and oiliness of the leaves indicates a high level of THC.

That's delta -9 -tetrahydrocannabinol, the intoxicating agent.

Could you determine the variety?

Green gold.

It's prevalent all over the Caribbean.

And where had Petty Officer Brindisi's ship just been?

The Roosevelt Roads Naval Station in Puerto Rico.

Thank you.

Your witness.

Mr. Sharps, aren't customs officers required to conduct field tests of all

suspicious substances?

My new kid hadn't arrived yet, and my old one was spent.

When that happens, we use our noses and tongues to move the process on to the

next phase.

Well, what if there is no next phase?

I meant that I... That you tend to assume guilt.

Oh, no, ma 'am. Did you smoke the evidence?

Of course not.

Excluding chemical analysis, wouldn't that be the only other way of

its authenticity?

Well, this was marijuana.

So you say.

I object, Your Honor.

Withdrawn.

That'll be all.

Redirect, Your Honor.

Mr. Sharps, are customs officers allowed to make determinations by smoking a

substance under suspicion?

No, sir.

Thank you.

Government rest, Your Honor.

Bill?

I haven't seen Lamar in four years.

He ran away. He took my house money and my jewelry. You've had no contact with

your son, ma 'am? No.

I thought he was dead. Maybe if he's lucky, buried.

You say he's using a different name?

Yes, ma 'am. Keeley Woods.

Well, then how'd you know to come here?

A neighborhood kid identified him.

That's why those boys been hanging around.

They think I talked to them. One of them even threatened me.

I'm very sorry about that, Mrs. Dunwoody. We do need to ask you some

Hey, look, you know more than I do.

You know your son may have killed somebody.

Those boys think he did.

What do you think, ma 'am?

Look, why are you here and not the police?

We're not investigating the murder, ma 'am. Your son saved a woman from being

raped. He's our chief witness.

Anything you can tell us, Mr. Dunwoody, to help us find him would be incredibly

helpful.

Look, Lamar's gone.

Mrs. Dunwoody, I'm going to give you my card.

I'll write my home number on the back.

You call me day or night if anything occurs to you.

Mr. Brindisi, what was in the plastic bag that was confiscated by Customs

Officer Sharps?

Tropical oregano, ma 'am. Very pungent. And how are you familiar with it?

My mother owns a restaurant in Great Neck, Long Island.

Um, the best marinara this side of Salerno.

I may throw in a plug.

Sure, she taught me everything she knows about food, including herbs.

And why did you have it?

My mother asked me to bring some back. It's hard to find in the States.

Did you have any expectation that it might be confused with marijuana?

Not at all. I thought maybe they'd check it for bugs, fungi, you know, that kind

of thing.

You ever smoke marijuana?

No, ma 'am.

I was an altar boy.

Thank you.

You're a witness.

How long were you an altar boy?

Seven years, sir.

Is that where you learned to play poker?

Objection. Relevance?

Your Honor, on direct examination, the defendant has put himself forward as

being of good character. I'm allowed to impeach.

You are.

Objection overruled.

Weren't you investigated in connection with the shipboard gambling syndicate

sale and distribution of alcohol?

These aren't even prior acts, Your Honor, just prior unsubstantiated

allegations.

Commander, you're reaching.

No further questions.

Thank you, Petty Officer.

Your Honor, I would like to request that Jingo appear at this hearing.

What?

I don't follow, Colonel.

Well, the dog was the first to identify the substance as illicit.

Customs Officer Sharps took his cue from Jingo.

I'd like the opportunity to prove that Jingo had incorrectly established an

expectation of Mr. Sharps, who in turn assumed that what he was smelling was

marijuana. How is the colonel going to question a dog, Your Honor? Well, I

intend to conduct a demonstration of Jingo's drug -sniffing abilities, or

thereof.

No tricks.

No, sir.

Your Honor, if... The colonel is correct.

The defendant has a right to confront an accuser.

Have the animal here tomorrow morning.

I understand your chief witness is a dog.

I understand yours is a murderer.

Well, that hasn't checked out yet, ma 'am.

Well, I hope it doesn't, because then all you have to do is find him.

Well, I prefer human witnesses to dogs any day, even if they're missing.

I'll have a copy of that. Yes, sir.

Um... You were right. I was, uh... imposing my perception of Brumby onto

Don't worry about it.

No. I mean, I should have believed you. I think you know how you feel.

Besides, you and Brumby have no chemistry.

Wow.

I'm sorry.

Dunwoody. Street name Fly.

That's right.

How'd you find me?

I got a friend at your precinct. Detective Mario Bigi.

Tells me you're an expert on Anacostia gang.

Yeah. What's your pleasure?

Any idea of photo?

Discreetly. Fuck.

Yep, that's the guy.

What's with the uniform?

He enlisted in the Marine Corps under a different name.

I would too if I killed somebody.

Can you confirm that, detective?

How did six eyewitnesses grab you?

What do you want with him?

He's a witness in a rape case that we're prosecuting.

You want a murderer to condemn a rapist?

He's all we have.

You wouldn't happen to know where we can start looking for him, would you? All I

know is he disappeared about four years ago.

Come on!

Detective. You wouldn't want to blow my cover, would you, Commander?

God bless you, sir.

Your Honor,

it is our contention that Jango, who is not only aging, but also experiencing

diminished skills, confused the aromatic properties of marijuana with those of

oregano. Therefore, a simple test has been arranged.

Nine of these gear bags contain samples of tropical oregano.

One contains green gold marijuana.

How do we know this?

Well, all of the samples have been prepared and certified by the drug

lab at the Naval Medical Center in San Diego.

Your Honor, ten bags?

Well, actually, the odds are better than average working conditions, sir. In

most cases, the dog has to sniff his way through hundreds of bags.

He's supposed to be able to find the needle in the haystack.

What next, Your Honor?

Will the colonel have him jumping through hoops of fire?

This is it, Colonel.

Yes, sir.

Proceed.

Sir?

Sit.

You may begin, Mr. Sharps.

Go ahead, boy.

Come on.

I'm sorry, he's just not used to this setting.

Mr.

Sharps. Might have to declare him a hostile witness.

Private Claughton will plead guilty to assault and battery. Will accept

forfeiture of pay and six months confinement.

The charge is attempted rape, Mattoni.

Maximum sentence is 20 years.

You can dig in your heels, Commander, but you're just going to end up with

shoes. Scuttlebutt says you can't find your corroborating witness.

And your victim had trouble picking the private as her assailant on.

She was upset.

I think the term is hysterical, Lieutenant.

The point is, Mattoni, she made the ID.

She's shaky as hell.

Go ahead.

Put her on the stand. Let me at her.

I'd like to see that, sir.

Ten years' confinement.

We'll accept a lesser charge only.

Aggravated assault with a dishonorable discharge and three years' confinement.

Three years, sir?

Unacceptable. Fine.

We'll take it to trial.

He'll walk.

Let us think about it.

I was just goofing on her, sir.

I wasn't going to rape her.

Private Clawson, you are presently the luckiest Marine on the planet.

Don't blow it by also being the stupidest.

You just couldn't lay off.

That's too bad, because now you're going to have to answer to me.

My mother has nothing to do with this. Why are you bothering her?

We thought she might know where you were.

Now she's got bangers at her door harassing her on the street. They want

where I am and how to find me.

Before you showed up, they thought I was dead.

You showed up because you had the character to save a woman from being

Lamar.

I'd take it back if it'd keep my mother safe.

I understand that.

Your instincts wouldn't let you.

You're a better man than you'll admit.

In fact, I don't think you'd even be here if you didn't want to testify,

you?

What? Why aren't you in hiding?

Changing your identity. It's what you do, isn't it?

It's a little harder this time, though, huh?

Liked life as a Marine, didn't you?

More to the point, I think you like life as Keeley Woods.

He's the man you've always wanted to be, isn't he?

I always wanted to be my father, sir.

Marine, First Sergeant, Keeley done with it.

He died in Beirut.

I was nine.

Well, I can't think of a better reason to join.

I'll tell you what has me puzzled.

It's how you pass muster.

Recruiters run background checks.

This one has your stump, sir.

They don't run your fingerprints.

Always.

You have a police record, don't you? Right.

So it would have come up.

They'd have seen it. Unless, of course, it wasn't there.

You're in the witness protection program, aren't you?

I've been in the safe house in Virginia since...

I went in UA.

My mother called and told me you'd been to see her.

And all I could think about was how was I going to get back at you.

You know what I'm saying, sir?

No, I don't, Corporal. That's because you ain't never been in no gang.

I was a Chester Street crip.

And it wasn't a day that went by where we didn't talk about who we was going to

make pay for dissing us.

Is that why you killed the kid?

He shot at us first.

Hit one of my homie's sisters.

It felt right at the time.

I even got a tattoo.

Well, I see you didn't just murder somebody you were proud of at all.

I saw your wings.

You count your kills. Don't even try to compare the two.

Why not, sir? We were at war.

My government, which was my gang, they gave us permission to fight for our

common interests.

Just like Washington does for you.

I understand war.

What I don't get is why my homie would blow a guy away at the ATM for $40.

Leave the kid crying right there in the car seat.

That when you went to the cops?

I knew if I tried to quit, they'd smoke me.

So I got immunity.

Talked to the grand jury.

U .S. Marshals put me in the program.

Sent me to Oregon.

I hated it.

So I joined the Marine Corps instead.

The U .S. Marshals supported you joining the Marine Corps.

They didn't like it, but they backed me up.

Problem was, I got stitched an hour away from my mother, my mother who I can't

even see.

Look, you understand now why I can't do this?

Because everyone's looking for me.

Crips, bloods. If my face got on the news, it'll be over. You should have

thought of that before you saved that girl, Corporal. I wasn't thinking. I was

just reacting.

You see, that's when you shine.

I can't help you now anyway.

Not with my past.

Nobody has to know about your past.

As far as the world is concerned, you're Corporal Keeley Woods.

I don't know!

You took somebody's life.

It'll never be enough.

Where are you going?

I don't know, sir.

Someplace where I can just get my hair clear from all of this.

I know someplace.

21 by 1.

That was on you, son.

2017. You can play.

You play me pretty tough, sir.

It's not over yet, corporal.

Yes, it is, sir.

You want to make this real?

You make this, and I'm out of your life.

Now, you miss.

You miss, you take the stand.

That's funny, sir.

It's the only way to get me out of your life, Corporal.

You set me up.

Uh -huh.

I'm just rolling with the moment.

Come on. So you'll walk away and leave me alone?

That's what I said.

My mother, too.

Mm -hmm.

All right.

Was that supposed to frighten me?

Sir, if that's your idea of trash -talking, I suggest you shut it down so

can learn something.

Now follow the ball.

Because here it is.

There it goes.

Come and get it, pokey -ass punk.

That's pokey -ass punk, sir.

But that was a foul. Come on, get him.

You took me out with your elbow.

Oh, now, whining doesn't become you, Marine.

But you want to take me on, huh?

You want to take me on?

You really want to pull out the thigh?

Who's that talking now, huh?

Is that Lamar? Is it the Marine or the gangster?

Is that the killer?

Or is it the hero?

Pick your foul.

I say we shoot it off.

Call in and sink it.

First one to miss loses.

All right.

You shoot first.

That shot.

Hook shot.

Do you swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth

help you God?

I do, ma 'am.

Welcome, Corporal Woods.

Just dropping off your mail, Colonel.

Oh, thanks, Dinah.

Everyone's talking about the stunt with the dog, ma 'am.

Stunt?

Sorry, ma 'am. That was my word.

I'm sure it was the correct strategy for the case. I mean, he was old and

couldn't cut it anymore.

That's why he's in a shelter, right, ma 'am?

Why didn't you tell me about Jango?

I thought it might upset you.

I'm sorry.

Well, what happened?

He was retired by the department, and Mr. Sharps' wife was allergic.

So there's nobody else?

Colonel, there aren't too many people looking for a 12 -year -old mutt with

cataracts.

He's doomed.

I mean, if I didn't have to go back to Australia, I would have taken him

I feel responsible.

Come on, no guilt.

It's not your fault.

How about I take you out?

Help you get over this.

We'll do anything you want.

No, I won't be good company.

That I could never believe.

Anything I want?

No, you're getting me excited.

What I'm saying is that I'm not sure I'm ready for this kind of commitment in my

life right now.

We'll have to see how it goes. But I will tell you one thing right now.

If you chew up my shoes, it's over.

We better get out of here.

Go.

I'm worried about you.

I've known these boys since they were small in their diapers. I can take care

myself.

You look just like your dad in that uniform.
