Enter of thine own free will and without fear.

Listen to the words of the great goddess of old.

Once in the month, and better it be when the moon is full, you shall assemble in

some secret place and adore the spirit of me, who is clean of all the wise.

In my honor, you shall sing, dance, make music, and harm none in my presence.

For mine is the ecstasy of the Spirit on earth.

Be

free,

joyous, and sky -clad in your great right.

Flight 416 from Houston is now arriving at Gate 14B.

Flight 416 from Houston is now arriving at Gate 14B. Welcome to Gulfport,

gentlemen. Thank you. At ease, Chief.

Consider yourselves guests of the Construction Battalion Center, sir.

Lead on.

Lester, we're parked in the far lot. You feel like taking a hike?

If you feel like carrying our luggage.

Of course, sir.

We didn't want to blow your cover, Mac.

What about our friendship?

I'm friendly with Lieutenant Colonel Sarah McKenzie. I don't know much about

Chief Petty Officer Bonnie Johnson.

She is just as unforgiving.

You do look snappy in that uniform, ma 'am.

You have baby food on yours, Lieutenant.

So, what do you know, anyway?

Typing is hard on the fingernails.

About witches, Mac.

They worship naked.

Really? Did you?

So what was it like? Was it cold?

Was there sex involved?

I went for it. It was a warm night, and no one touched me. Did they touch each

other, ma 'am? No, we just danced around a bonfire. When the flames were low

enough, we jumped over.

You jumped over a fire naked?

Inking my track and field coach all the way.

So what have you found out?

Tom, I've been talking to Wickens all week. I haven't been able to find

to substantiate Petty Officer Plunkett's claim that she was raped.

We have a meeting with her in the morning. We'll see what she has to say.

So are you a witch now, ma 'am?

In training, bud.

They've taken me into their confidence, so I don't want to hear any cracks out

of either of you.

How was your trip to Australia, ma 'am? It was excellent.

Not used to seeing you drive in one of these, Mac.

What did you expect?

Bud, a broomstick, sir?

It happened right after my initiation, sir.

Chief Merker.

Chief the High Priest.

He walked me to my quarters.

I said goodnight, but when I opened the door, he followed me in.

That's when it happened.

Did you resist?

I wanted to, sir.

Then why didn't you?

I did, sir.

In my head.

And you felt that that would be enough?

Sir, I couldn't speak.

You were panicked.

No, sir.

You're not being very clear, Petty Officer.

Chief Merker put a spell on me, sir.

I'm speechless.

And we're helpless, ma 'am. There's no way to make this fly.

You want to drop it?

What's our argument?

The petty officer couldn't say no because Chief Merker put a spell on her?

I remind you that Navy policy requires all personnel to take seriously any

charge of sexual assault? We don't have anywhere to begin with this.

We better figure it out. I was sent down here because of Wicca's growing

presence in the military. I got the same speech, Mac. The Navy wants to know if

this is an isolated incident, otherwise it has to reevaluate its policies on

religious freedoms.

All right, so what do we have?

Well, we have what you've given us. Chief Merker is friendly, accommodating,

personally powerful.

I'll dig deeper.

What if we go public with it?

It could open a conversation within Wicca. Something might fall out.

Works for me.

Bud, give me what you can on these names, huh?

Yes, sir.

Oh, sir.

Uh, FYI, I found a case in the manual for courts martial that involves

and live chickens.

I woke you up.

Bloody inconsiderate. I'm sorry.

No, to do it by phone.

You should have been lying next to me nuzzling me awake.

You know, I keep smelling you everywhere.

All my pillows, my clothes, my towels.

Can't bring myself to wash them.

Well, promise me you'll do it before I visit again.

If you promise to visit again.

I can't take leave until July. What am I supposed to do until then?

I don't know, but don't do it with anyone else.

You think I would?

Well, you're not yourself, are you?

You're Chief Johnson.

Hmm. I hadn't thought of it that way. Thanks for the suggestion.

Well, we're moving forward down here, Mick.

Expect more naked dancing.

As long as you send me a tape.

Sir?

The wicker research?

Thanks.

Pre -Christian, earth -based reconstruction of European tribal

paganistic, but polytheistic gods and goddesses.

No animal sacrifice, no devil worship.

What's this?

I cast a wider net, sir.

Frightening form of witchcraft was reportedly practiced not in Salem, but

deep south.

The witches in these regions were said to have cast crippling spells.

They even sacrificed humans in their quest for union with the devil.

What does this have to do with Wiccans, bud?

Well, the petty officer claimed that she was the victim of a spell, sir.

Sir, this is not one of my paranormal fixations.

It's one of your normal fixations?

Sir, here. In 1916, a swarm of beetles descended on Harrison County.

In the early 40s, a hundred dogs went missing in the span of a week.

And as late as 1993... All right.

I'll look it over.

Do you think the colonel might be interested, sir?

I'll keep her informed.

Yes, sir.

Hey,

how you doing, Jean?

Well, the Navy thinks I'm a rapist.

Papers say I made a pact with the devil. There's a guy out in the parking lot

who wants to castrate me.

Mind if I sit down?

Please. Thanks.

You hungry, Chief?

Sure. Then don't sit here. No one seems to want to take our order.

Well, that's okay, Steve.

You got friends.

Well, I'm really glad you're one of them.

Now, Bonnie, if you're going to stick with us, you should know this could be a

rough ride.

Wiccans are pretty open -minded about sex.

Concentral sex.

Yeah. We take a lot of heat for it. And this...

are worth nightmare.

It gives fuel to our enemies and can destroy us.

You know, that's the crazy part about it. What happened between me and Petty

Officer Plunkett was consensual.

If I'm guilty of anything, it's not realizing how naive she was.

The Lord has not forsaken you. You can still be saved. Come into his arms.

There is no warmer place in the firmament. Ma 'am, you're not welcome

Marvelous grace of our loving Lord.

Grace that exceeds our sin and guilt.

Yonder on Calvary's mount outpoured. There where the blood of the Lamb was

spilled.

Grace, grace, God's grace.

Grace that is greater than all our sins.

WIC is growing in the military because it's one of the few institutions that

will let us be. Or so we thought.

There was some talk of a study group at Norfolk, but it never happened.

Well, Bonnie, I want you to know I really appreciate your support.

I mean, you're only here a week, and you're already in the thick of it.

Most people don't get us.

Well, most people don't cast spells, Chief.

Spiritual magic.

To harness positive energy.

I mean, it's not like we're turning people into toadstools.

Can you?

I believe my faith gives me the power to do anything.

Well, good night.

Where are you going?

to sleep.

You're not going to let me be alone tonight, are you?

Yes, Chief.

Okay.

Good morning, Admiral.

Your call, sir.

Everybody wants a piece of me, Connor.

Nothing lights up people like sex and witchcraft.

Monsignor Daughtery, ACLU, Wiccan Circle, Congressman Steelsmith.

Confirming you're 9 o 'clock for tomorrow, sir.

Yeah, it's his district.

Probably wants to meddle, misses the smell of litigation. Damn hill dwellers.

What the hell is that?

The all -seeing eye, sir.

It's believed to be the eye of Lucifer.

Hexes, curses, psychic control, and all corruption are worked through this

emblem.

Lieutenant Roberts ordered it for his research, sir. He wants me to forward

It's made of plaster, Tyler.

I can see that, sir.

Tell the lieutenant he's gone too far this time.

Yes, sir.

Here.

Judge Advocate General's office.

Hold on, please.

Sir, Congressman Fieldsmith's office wants to push tomorrow's meeting to 10.

He's backed up early on and he's afraid he'll fall behind.

He can fall on his behind as far as I'm concerned.

10 o 'clock is fine. We'll see him then.

Give me the commanding officer at Army Installation, Fort Hood, Texas.

They've been taking heat on their Wiccans. I want to pick his brain.

Aye, sir.

Oh, and Turner, tell the lieutenant if he tries to expense that, I'm going to

make him wear it as a hat.

Yes, sir.

As is the male to the female, blessed be the act of creation.

Blessed be the waters of life.

May they protect and purify this circle.

May

the

Goddess and the God protect and purify thee.

Blessed be.

What's your wish?

How'd you know I was making one?

Up is where hope lives.

So there's a guy.

All right, if you know so much, what was I wishing?

You want to be with him?

Yes. But you can't.

No.

Can I help?

What could you do?

What do you like?

Yeah. So how you doing?

We're starting up again.

Tried to put a spell on him.

What did he do, sprinkle fairy dust on you? Salt water.

Then when we went outside, he took my hand and... You resisted, I assume.

Yeah. But someone weaker, younger, more naive may have had a harder time. This

guy is compelling.

Mac, what kind of powers are we talking about, anyway?

Magical or personal?

Because if he has only seduced Petty Officer Plunkett, we can go home.

Came on to me the night before two -arm.

Ma 'am, what happened last night, was it after a ceremony?

Yes. Same as Petty Officer Plunkett.

Chief Merker doesn't have the ability to cast spells, but somehow he convinced

the Petty Officer that he does.

Now, the thing is, if she really believed that she was incapable of

that makes it rape.

I mean, you could directly compare that to being drugged or hypnotized. In each

case, the person is being denied their free will.

What happened to Bud Roberts, a cult expert?

He reminded himself that he was an attorney, sir.

Defense will jump all over the consent issue. You have to prove intent on the

part of the accused that he expected the petty officer to resist, but made her

think that she couldn't so that he could take advantage of her.

Anything further, Counselor? Yeah.

Good luck.

Congressman here yet? His office canceled, sir.

Apparently he slipped on a marble floor and broke an ankle.

Oh. Well, get him a card and I'll sign it. Yes, sir.

Tyner?

What is that filth doing here?

Sorry, sir. I haven't gotten around to sending it yet.

Well, don't leave it out. Put it someplace.

All we need is Monsignor Daughtery to find it and he'll damn us all to hell.

Yes, sir.

Oh, when is the ACLU rep expected?

Noon, sir. Boy, this one is a loud talker.

He had me on the phone for 40 minutes. I got up, my ears were ringing.

Well, maybe he said all he needs to say and just wants to wrap up, sir.

Well, one word out of his mouth is one too many.

Here, hang this on my parking space. Maybe I'll keep the minivans up.

The hardest part is remembering to salute the officers.

I walked right past an ensign the other day. He dropped me down for five

minutes.

Lucky bloke.

What do you mean by that?

Well, ever since you told me you were working undercover as a chief petty

officer.

I've been having fraternization fantasies.

Really? I'm your commanding officer by day, and your love slave at night.

Keep talking, slave.

Yeah, and you snap too, Chief.

Yes, sir.

Seriously, Sarah, watch yourself around this murky character.

What, you don't think I can handle myself?

I don't think I want to think about it. It worries me.

You're worried or jealous?

No, I don't get jealous.

Yeah, neither do I.

Oh, beauty.

Then I can keep my mistress.

Can I keep mine?

I miss you.

I miss you too.

I've got to go.

Till next time.

Yeah, till then.

I've been waiting 30 minutes for you. Oh, sorry.

Who are you talking to?

My mistress.

Very funny.

Chief Johnson.

Steven. I have some business and admin, Chief.

Yeah, my transfer papers got screwed up.

Wouldn't it be nice to have a day when everything went according to plan?

I've had a few of those.

Really? Maybe if I hang out with you, Chief, I can learn how you do it.

You just have to believe in yourself.

My first thoughts took off. Really?

It used to be worse, but it helped a lot.

I think so. You seem to be doing fine.

I hope you mean that truth, because a lot of people say stuff like that just

get you out of their face, and I don't know you that well. You know me well

enough to be honest with me, and I know you well enough to be willing to listen.

See you later.

I can't seem to... Now I

know.

Do you know where I can find a commander, Rat?

Yeah, you're looking at him.

Excellent.

James Posey. I'm representing Chief America.

Excuse me. Of course.

Glad I ran into you because I could not find your office. I've been all over the

building. It's right across the hall, Mr. Posey.

Well, now I know.

May I suggest a way to dispose of this case?

Do you want to talk about this in here? Well, it's in there, man. It's got good

acoustic.

All right, go ahead.

You drop the charges.

I call off the ACLU when the talk shows in the news magazine.

There seems to be some confusion, Mr. Posey. Your client is the one in

Well, now, what do you have? A woman making hysterical allegations.

Locals guilty of bigotry and harassment.

This is not a case of indecent assault.

This is a civil liberties trial.

No deals without an admission of guilt.

How's this for a headline?

Real witch hunt in Harrison County.

Well, thank you for setting the tone for the trial, Mr. Posner. You're welcome.

It was your personal pick.

That's all right.

I only make them one.

Mr. White, sir, if you live on top of the hill, is that correct?

Yes, sir. What can you see below?

Well, forest mostly.

A clearing or two.

Have you witnessed any recent activity in either one of these clearings? I sure

have. One night I was chasing some raccoons away from my pole beans, and I

spotted some folks dancing naked around a bonfire. Yeah, I am wondering about

relevance. How am I, Counselor?

Well, if you'll grant me some leeway, sir, I'll get to that.

Soon.

Yes, sir.

Mr. White Thrip, what do you do for a living?

I'm a wildlife photographer.

And are these the photos that you took on the night in question?

Yes, sir.

1600 ASA, pushed in the lab. What are we looking at?

Naked people jumping over a fire.

Is there anyone present in the courtroom that you observed that night?

Oh, yeah.

I see quite a few of them here.

Including Chief Marker?

Yep. Right there.

Let the record reflect that the witness pointed to the accused.

It's him, with his arms akimbo.

Which one?

Oh, standing right there, next to the lady with the tattoo.

Wow. Her.

It's Wilford Waller from the ACLU, sir.

Send him in.

You are welcome.

Please have a seat.

You okay?

Could you describe the initiation ceremony for us, please?

Chief Merker brought me into the center of the circle.

Were you clothed?

No, sir. We were sky -clad.

Naked.

Had you worshipped this way before?

The others had.

This was my first time.

Whose idea was it for you to disrobe?

Chief Merker suggested it.

He said I was ready.

I was uncomfortable with the idea, but he felt I'd be a stronger receptor for

the energy this way.

What happened next?

The chief blessed me and granted me the title of first -degree initiate.

And how did he do that?

He kissed his hand and he touched me in five places. Where exactly?

My feet.

My hands.

My breasts, my lips, and down

there.

What was the chief's expression at this time, Petty Officer?

It wasn't spiritual, sir.

Were you disappointed?

A little, but I was still excited about it all.

Did Chief Merker walk you home after the ceremony?

Yes, sir.

It was fine until we got to my door.

I said goodnight, but he came in anyway.

What happened then?

It was weird, sir.

I suddenly felt like I was inside myself, looking

out.

Like the connection between my mind and my body was gone.

But it wasn't until he started taking off my clothes.

But I realized that I couldn't do anything about it.

Why?

I was bewitched, sir.

You mean like hypnotized or drugged?

Objection. Let the witness tell us what she meant.

Sustained.

I wasn't able to cry for help or fight him off or anything.

Did you want to fight him off?

Not yet.

Betty, I have to plunk it.

Did Chief Marker have sexual intercourse with you in this state?

Yes, sir.

Excuse me, sir. What is it?

Sir, I don't know how to put this.

How about a sentence, a short one?

Yes, sir.

Admiral, it's about your meetings with Congressman Steelsmith and Mr. Waller.

What about them?

Well, you said something about Congressman Steelsmith falling.

And then we learned he broke his ankle. Then with Mr. Waller, you said you

didn't want to hear another word out of his mouth. And when he was in your

office, all he could do was cough.

Sir, you were holding the all -seeing eye both times.

So I, um, I hexed these people.

Inadvertently, sir.

With a plaster pyramid.

It would seem that way, sir.

Well, then, Tyner, I... I must have magical powers.

In that case, I magically transfer them to you.

Yes, sir.

Bippity -boppity -boo, they're yours, Tyner. Go have a party.

Sir?

Out.

Yes, sir.

Petty Officer Plunkett, you're saying that Chief Merker put a spell on you?

Yes, sir.

Otherwise, it never would have happened.

And you believed him capable of making you do his bidding?

Yes, sir.

Well, if he had that kind of power over you, why can't he make you withdraw this

charge?

I don't know, sir.

Now, isn't it the truth that you couldn't say no to him that night

didn't want to?

No, sir.

But you said you were excited by the initiation ceremony.

I was excited to be a member of Wicca.

You were naked, and a man was touching you.

And the only thing that excited you was that they were going to be mailing you a

membership card?

Objection argumentative.

Sustained. Betty Officer, what was your faith prior to joining Wicca?

I was a member of a Baptist church in Lysana. Uh -huh.

And does this church prohibit sex outside of marriage?

Yes, sir.

And did you follow their teachings?

Yes, sir.

But you left that church to join Wicca.

I was looking for something new.

And exciting.

Different. I see.

And where do you worship now?

Objection, Your Honor. This trial is not about the complainant's religion.

Your Honor, if the complainant is feeling guilty about a consensual sexual

relationship, she has reason for claiming sexual assault. Is defense

testifying as an expert witness?

All right, that's enough from both of you.

Objections overruled.

Answer the question.

I went back to my church.

I wanted to be baptized again.

Why?

To be cleansed of my sins.

What sins would those be, petty officer?

I thought you were bewitched.

No further questions.

I just rolled, Chief.

Is it the flu, or...? I'm having a bad day.

Aren't you happy with the way the trial's going?

Sure.

Looks good for the Chief.

I'm sorry, I'm just tired.

What's up?

It's all right, I can handle it, Chief.

Not at the moment, you can't.

I didn't want anyone to see me like this.

won't go away by itself.

It happened months ago.

What happened?

Chief Marker happened.

I was raped too.

Why are we hearing about this now?

Well, she was afraid to come forward. It's not unusual for a woman to shut

after she's been sexually assaulted.

But she had such a good opportunity. I mean, she had another case to support

own. Well, she figured we'd get him on the plunket charge.

And when she saw him slipping away, we should put her on the stand. She's a

perfect rebuttal witness.

It's not going to happen.

And don't bother going to her. If I couldn't convince her, you won't.

Well, we need to find somebody who can then.

Blessed be thy feet, which have led thee in these ways.

Blessed be thy womb, without which we would not be.

Blessed be thy hands, which reach out and act in the world.

Blessed be thy breath, formed in strength and beauty.

Blessed be thy lips, which speak the sacred names.

And blessed be you.

Did you as high priest perform this blessing on Teddy Officer Plunkett?

Yes. Is it performed with a sexual intent?

Never. Even though you place your hands on the individual's flesh.

When a rabbi performs a circumcision, he places his hand on the manhood of an

infant, should he be accused of child molestation.

Now, after the ceremony, did you walk the petty officer home?

She asked me to. And had she indicated a prior interest in you?

I had received a valentine from her.

And did she express an interest in you that evening?

Yes.

Did you put a spell on her?

There is a myth that Wiccans have access to that kind of magic, but it's only

true in the movies.

Thank you.

No further questions.

What kind of magic do you practice, Chief?

Our spells are positive ends.

Happiness, healing, that kind of thing.

So Petty Officer Plunkett is wrong in believing that you bewitched her.

That's right, sir.

She had just disrobed in the dark, surrounded by naked people, had been

in private areas of her body by a man in a position of authority within the

coven. What psychological effect did you expect this to have on her, Chief?

To put her in touch with herself.

With the earth, with the god and the goddess.

Not with the high priest?

I am just a medium for higher powers, sir.

How many Wiccan women have you engaged sexually, Chief?

Objection. Defendant's sexual history is not relevant here.

I'll rephrase, Your Honor.

Chief, have you had sexual experience with any Wiccan women after initiations?

It goes to pattern, Your Honor. I still object.

And I overrule.

Witness will answer.

On occasion.

And it was always consensual.

Never used your position as high priest to press them into it?

No, sir.

Never extended the initiation ceremony to include a sexual one, Chief?

No. Never used the chanting, the atmosphere, or the belief system of

manipulate suggestible young women into believing they were powerless to resist

your advances?

I never made advances toward anyone, at any time, against their will. So if

somebody were to say that you had,

well, they'd be lying, sir.

Seaman's dork.

I realize this is awkward, but I thought you might want to talk to the

commander. About what, Chief? About what you told me. I don't know what that

would be. Don't lie. Don't do that to yourself.

I can't believe that you went to him. I trusted you, Chief. Yes, and I'm glad

you did.

You're just too young to be in this much pain. Yeah, well, I thought you

supported Chief Merker. Not if he's guilty.

Chief Merker's acting like he knows you won't contradict him, Seaman. Why?

I have nothing to say to you, sir.

Are you protecting him? No, sir. I'm protecting Wicca. What do you think will

happen if Chief Merker is convicted?

It'll give fuel to our enemies. It will destroy us.

Are those your words or the Wicca party line?

I speak for Wicca, Chief, and Wicca speaks for me.

Well, right now, Chief Merker is speaking for Wicca. Is that the way you

it? That's the way it's going to have to be, sir. You're selling yourself short,

Seaman. It won't be the first time, ma 'am.

You know I can order you to appear, sir.

And I can refuse, sir.

Good afternoon, sir.

Well, that's that.

Any other ideas?

Your Honor, I'd like to call Lieutenant Colonel Sarah McKenzie to the stand.

Raise your right hand.

Do you swear that the evidence you give will be the truth, the whole truth, and

nothing but the truth, so help you God? I do. Have a seat.

Colonel, you are obviously not Chief Petty Officer Bonnie Johnson.

No, I was assigned by the Judge Advocate General to conduct an undercover

investigation of the C .B. Wickens.

And what did you discover?

That they are civil people of deep conviction who are no threat to the

or the military at large.

All of them?

Except Chief Merker.

He made sexual advances toward me on two occasions.

Your Honor, Chief Merker is not charged with anything relating to this witness.

Again, sir, this goes to pattern.

Witness may continue.

On the first occasion, he asked to spend the night.

On the second, during a ceremony, I could feel him looking at me intently.

Afterwards, he took hold of my hand.

Were you able to rebuff his advances, Colonel?

Objection, Your Honor. When was handholding added to the list of

activities? Commander, the charge is rape.

Does your witness have anything to contribute on that subject?

Yes, sir, she does.

Colonel, who is Seaman Stortz?

Member of Wicca.

Did Seaman Stortz relate to you an experience she had with Chief Merker

her initiation into Wicca? Objection. This is his pay. And the commander knows

it.

Members will ignore the last question.

I'm sorry, sir. Nothing further.

Colonel.

Did Chief Merker force you to engage in sexual activity with him?

No, but... That's all.

Thank you very much.

You may step down, Colonel.

Yes, sir.

Sir, I'd like to call Seaman Storch to the stand.

Your Honor, any information derived from Seaman Storch during the Colonel's

undercover investigation is the product of a gross violation of religious

freedom. The colonel was investigating an alleged crime, not a religion,

Counselor. Is the seaman present?

Yes, Your Honor.

Would you step up, please?

No, sir.

Seaman, I'm ordering you.

I'm sorry, sir, but I can't.

Would you prefer to be held in contempt of this court?

If necessary, sir.

Your Honor, I would like to recall Colonel McKenzie in light of the

refusal to testify.

To do what?

To relate to this court the seaman's story, since the seaman has refused to

so herself.

Rule 804, declarant unavailable exception to the hearsay rule, sir.

Seaman, you have a choice.

The colonel can take the stand and explain the events according to her

recollection of your statement to her, or you can do it yourself.

He says how much I've been overcharged. I walk into my landlord's office and

show him my lease. And he says, take me to court. And I'm like, well, it'll be

years before I get my money back.

I get it, sir. Don't hurt him. Just give him a rash or something.

How about on his nose, sir?

Yeah.

Tyner.

My office.

Bring that with you.

Yes, sir.

Tyner, what are you getting out of this? Never mind. I don't want to know.

Give it to me.

What's the literature say about destroying one of these?

It doesn't, sir.

Good.

Dismissed. Aye, sir.

We stopped at Steve Merker's quarters first, sir.

He wanted to play a CD for me, so I went inside and he put it on.

I turned around and he was staring at me in the most intense way, like he was

trying to put a spell on me, sir.

Did you succumb?

Well, no, because I didn't think that that's the way spells worked, that you

could just make someone do something against their will.

Then why did you tell Colonel McKenzie that Chief Merker had raped you?

Because he did, sir.

When he realized that I wasn't buying it, he forced himself on me.

I fought back, but he pushed me onto the bed and

he pinned my arms around my back.

That's when I tried to call for help.

Put it on me.

He left a talk in my mouth.

And afterwards, he made me a cup of coffee.

Will the defendant please rise?

Announce your findings.

Chief Petty Officer Lane Merker, this court martial fine view of the charge

specification, guilty.

This court is adjourned.

Okay, I got it.

That was a brave thing you did, Seaman.

No, sir.

I just thought it wouldn't be fair to have someone else have to do it but me.

Chief Merker was a cancer. He's been cut out.

It's time to heal.

What the chief did was unforgivable, sir.

And if any of us had known about Seaman Stortz, we would have convinced her to

testify, even if it meant hurting Wicca.

But you are the last person, sir, who should be talking about doing the right

thing. And as for you, ma 'am, After manipulating and lying to us, well,

Colonel.

Commander.

Very impressive.

It's worth a manor on the Riviera, love.

Sorry, love.

Over here, mates.

Come on up, please.

The look on her face was enough to turn you into salt.

Felt like a total bastard.

You were smuggling stolen military property out of the country, Mick.

Your first undercover is always the hardest.

Okay.

I felt a quiver.

The back of my neck got warm.

I licked my lips.

I bit mine.

You're next.

Um, let me turn out the light.

Me too.
