Open the gate!

Open the gate!

He's American!

I'm with the consulate!

He's one of my men!

I'm with the consulate! Let me go!

He is on Indonesian soil and he is under arrest.

I am sure you don't want an international incident.

Honey! Help me!

Please!

We'll get you out, Corvo.

I haven't seen anything like this in a long time, sir.

I know you Marines are more comfortable with mess kits and folding spoons,

Colonel, but... Believe it or not, sir, we have real silverware back at JAG.

I keep forgetting you're a non -combat officer.

I guess the only landmines that you dodge are legal ones.

Outstanding, Skipper.

So you see, the Navy is good for more than just moving our little green

around, Colonel.

Oh, I have nothing but respect for squids, sir.

Oh.

Would you excuse me, please?

This is the captain?

Yes.

Affirmative. Yes.

We just received a communique from Gunnery Sergeant Simpkins, who's in

the Marine Detachment at the consulate in Ache Province.

One of his men was arrested this morning, charged with rape. He's been

the civilian government.

Sounds like he needs a lawyer, sir.

Well, Oche Province is already in chaos.

We can't even guarantee the safety of American citizens.

This surely won't help.

Sorry to be sending you into a hot zone, Colonel.

Oh, I've had training, sir.

But as a woman, you've never been assigned to a combat unit.

That's not Marine Corps policy.

But anyway, I'm going in as a lawyer.

I'll meet with the local authority, arrange for our man's release into my

custody. You mean your man's release?

I'm a squid.

Remember?

Is he losing the case, Harm?

No way. Look at the members, man.

Come on, plead it out. I'll knock it down to negligent homicide, two years

on confinement, dismissal and forfeiture as a judge. It's a gift. All right.

You'd rather he's convicted of voluntary manslaughter, he might be looking at 15

years. Sturgis, Commander Keegan did the right thing. The right thing.

Navy field kills helpless civilian on a commercial airplane.

The guy he killed threatened the life of every person aboard that aircraft.

But you can't prove that. Even if you could, it's still excessive force. Look,

half the passengers on the plane want to give Keegan a medal.

Too bad they're not on the panel.

Morning, gentlemen.

We're not jogging, Lieutenant?

No, sir, just ran up the stairs trying to start off slow.

I'm encouraging Lieutenant Roberts to get in shape. Took him out jogging the

other night. Yeah, had to stop after half a mile.

We'll get there, Lieutenant.

Think about it.

Uh, sir, about the case that you and Commander Turner are conducting.

Yes? Uh, you're going to be interviewing the government's next witness, and I

know it's your job to, when you're cross -examining them, cast a shadow of a

doubt. Please, please do it without attacking her, sir.

Nobody's going to attack her, bud.

Harriet, we were just talking about you.

Right. I should go.

Consorting with the enemy, Commander?

She's a witness, Lieutenant.

For theirs, sir.

Not ours.

Harriet? I hate this, bud.

Being grilled by the people that I know. By my friends.

This killing happened on a civilian aircraft, and a civilian court should

it. An officer was involved, honey. The military wanted to take the case.

Look, you just have to testify today, and it'll all be over.

Ready, Lieutenant Sims?

Well, she's a little nervous, sir.

I've prepared you very well, Lieutenant.

All you have to do is swear to tell the truth.

When you take the stand this afternoon, Drek's going to be easy.

We've been over your testimony.

It's the cross you'll need to worry about.

Trial counsel will do their best to characterize you as a cold -blooded

machine.

You'll need to counteract that by appearing likable, caring, concerned.

I feel for that man's family.

I see them on TV.

I know his kid won't have a father.

You still believe you did the right thing.

Whenever I think about it, I always end up at the same place.

What if he'd gotten away from me?

What if all those people died because I didn't act?

You swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, so

you God?

I do.

You may be seated.

Lieutenant Sims, you were a passenger on Air Domain Flight 655 on April 12th of

this year?

Yes, sir.

Where were you seated, Lieutenant?

2B, aisle seat.

Then please tell us what you saw.

I saw the accused Lieutenant Commander Keegan kill Anton Summer.

Would you please describe exactly what occurred, Lieutenant?

It was a night flight, JFK to Dulles, and I was awakened by an argument

the defendant and Anton Summer.

What were they arguing about, Lieutenant?

Mr. Summer was very upset and said he wanted to talk to a stewardess.

Why?

Mr. Summer had destroyed a smoke detector in the laboratory where he had

smoking.

And I heard the stewardess tell him that she was going to have to inform the U

.S. Marshals and he would be immediately arrested when we got to Dulles.

And after telling him that, she went on to the flight deck, and Mr.

Summer yelled after her to give him a break.

What led Lieutenant Commander Keegan to kill Mr. Summer?

Lieutenant Commander Keegan was standing in between Mr.

Summer and the flight deck, and after the stewardess left,

Mr. Summer took a step toward the lieutenant commander.

What was Lieutenant Commander Keegan's response?

He knocked the water bottle out of Mr. Summer's hand.

And when Mr. Summer bent over to pick it up, Lieutenant Commander Keegan grabbed

him, and they tussled, and the commander broke Mr. Summer's neck.

So when Anton Summer died, he wasn't posing an immediate threat to the crew,

plane, or the passengers?

No, sir. He was just trying to pick up his water bottle.

No further questions, Your Honor. We'll take a short recess before the defense

questions the witness.

A say is fragile at the

moment. Pro -independence rebels attacking government forces, the

rounding up dissidents.

Can I have a few Perrier? An Air France pilot brings them to me. No, thank you.

When things go badly, everyone blames the Americans.

And now you're an unfortunate corporal. About Corporal Lassiter. An unpleasant

business.

Maya Sweet worked in a dollar dance club.

The corporal met her there.

When she left, he dragged her into an alley and had his way with her.

She made a positive ID.

May I see the case file?

Not available.

It is still being prepared.

I want to interview the girl.

I sent her home to her family.

Did Corporal Lassiter make a statement?

Swayze's never been to the club or met the girl.

Can you prove he was there or had contact with the alleged victim?

When I arrested Corporal Lassiter, 15 men were chasing him.

The girl cried rape and they came to her rescue.

Did they see Corporal Lassiter with the girl? When they arrived, he was running

down the block.

Maybe he was running because they were chasing him.

The girl says otherwise.

Well, the United States military will handle the case from here, Captain, if

you'll just release Corporal Lassiter to my custody.

We have no status of force in this agreement with your country.

Corporal Lassiter stays or leaves at my pleasure. He's a U .S. citizen and a

Marine. I would very much like to make an accommodation, but I couldn't

without, uh...

Without what, Captain?

Some form of security.

I believe you call it bail.

I believe we call it bribery.

I could lodge a formal protest with your government.

Which would take days.

I don't believe Corporal Lassiter has that much time.

You see the crowd outside?

Hard to control indefinitely.

In case you haven't noticed, Colonel, life in Ache is cheap.

What's the cost to bail him out, Captain?

We have no cash, no authorization.

Please, we represent two fine nations.

Let's not barter like common street merchants.

How idiosyncratic.

Dog tags with jewelry.

There must be a fascinating story here.

Colonel, don't.

Ah, I was right.

A woman gives away her ring.

Somewhere there is a broken heart.

That's yours, I hope.

Let's get this done, Captain.

The ring or nothing.

Lieutenant, you testified earlier that you were sleeping when the voices woke

you. Were you sleeping deeply enough to be dreaming?

Yes, as a matter of fact, I was dreaming.

What were you dreaming about?

Objection? What possible relevance could this have?

Goes to the state of mind, Your Honor, if you'll let me proceed.

Get there quickly, Counselor. Thank you, Your Honor.

Tell us about your dream, Lieutenant.

I was dreaming about the child that my husband and I lost last year.

How exactly did you lose it?

It?

Her name was Sarah.

And she died in childbirth.

And why were you dreaming about the child?

I was returning from a weekend meeting of a grief support group.

Healing hearts.

So you're having a hard time dealing with the loss of your baby.

Of course.

Did you wake up crying from that dream?

Yes. In fact, you're so caught up in your grief, you can't really be certain

what you saw in that plane, can you? I know what happened, Lieutenant.

How? I have a deep sleep through tears and emotional pain. I know that the man

that was killed was defenseless.

Defenseless as a newborn baby?

Objection.

Sustained. You spent an emotional day with the support group, dreamed about

dead baby, awakened by an argument, and witnessed an act of violence.

Weren't you upset and confused when you woke up? No. Oh, come on, Lieutenant.

How could you not be upset?

Your Honor.

Your Honor.

Commander Rav, you were faster.

Ma 'am, may I have a brief recess to confer with co -counsel?

Excellent idea.

You two need to start trying the same case. We are in recess.

For Gunnery Sergeant Simca's promotion.

There'll be cake later, in lieu of a wedding down party.

Better go process your paperwork, Corporal. Right this way, Gunnery

Oh, I am so sorry. I wasn't... You can't be a Marine.

Why not?

Women cannot be Marines.

Or I have never seen one.

Well, you've seen one now. I'm Lieutenant Colonel Sarah McKenzie.

A cannon?

Wonderful. Did they let you shoot guns?

Every Marine a rifleman, young lady.

Wonderful.

I am Nuyana.

My mother is the best cook here.

But they won't make her head chef because she's woman.

I don't think that's fair. Do you?

No, I don't. Are you staying for our party?

I hope so.

There will be a big cake later.

It's in shape of American flag.

I like your uniform.

Maybe someday I will be marrying an older man about.

Do you order Dermabelt?

These Marines are specially trained to protect the consulate. But if they give

you a gun, you could protect it, too. Well, there's more to serving at the

consulate than just having a gun, Liliana.

I think I understand.

It is because you're a woman.

No, that's not... Do not worry.

Someday you will be in charge. Just as someday my mother will be head chef.

Colonel McKenzie.

Congratulations on your promotion, Gunnery Sergeant. Thank you, ma 'am.

I'd like to introduce you, Consul General Raymond Dart. Good to meet you,

Colonel. We got your Marine out of jail.

I, for one, am not happy to see Corporal Lassiter back here.

I don't appreciate the sentiment, Mr. Dart. This whole country is ready to

explode if some Marine goes around raping women.

I saw very little evidence of an actual crime, Mr. Dart.

These people don't give a damn about evidence. This man was alone in town in

uniform. That's all against regulation.

That's a far cry from rape, sir. Your job is to protect us, not put us in the

line of fire.

When is this damn tape coming out?

Uh, soon.

What the hell were you doing in there?

Discrediting the witness, sir.

You attack her testimony to put down in a member's mind, lieutenant. You attack

her, you look like a bully.

They saw she wasn't objective.

They saw a lawyer attacking a woman who lost her baby.

That was my point, sir. You brought her to tears, lieutenant.

You made her sympathetic.

The members knew what I was doing, sir.

Who of the members are women who have children?

She was a strong witness, sir. I decided it was a risk worth taking.

Well, that's not your decision to make, is it?

Where'd you get this dream stuff from, anyway?

Harriet told Petty Officer Tyner he told me this morning.

I should have been informed.

Would you have used it, sir?

Not the way you did.

You hurt us in there, Lieutenant.

I thought it was our best shot, sir. Our best shot comes this afternoon when we

present our case.

I'll be conducting both the direct and the cross.

Are you implying I'm a bad lawyer, sir?

Just inexperienced lieutenant and without wisdom.

Permission to speak freely, sir?

Denied. That'll be all.

If they didn't feed you in that jail... Bowl of rice, full of worms.

Places an armpit.

Jails generally are.

Not the jail.

The whole damn country.

And the people in it.

I haven't seen a decent -looking woman in months.

Not till your colonel sashayed in and rescued me.

Not the senior officer you're talking about, Corporal.

Sorry, Gunnery Sergeant. I meant no offense.

God bless America and the United States Marine Corps.

Gunnery Sergeant, congratulations.

Well -deserved promotion.

We can do the honors.

Step of five.

Hoorah!

Ma 'am?

Cute kid.

Her father had to flee the rebels.

We haven't been able to determine if he's still alive.

Gunny!

Right outside's getting bigger.

A little show of force now, might save a use of force later.

I'd say that's a good idea.

I'd say it's not.

The local police are handling this.

It's my second -in -command, Staff Sergeant Wakefield, Lieutenant Colonel

McKenzie. Nice to meet you, Staff Sergeant. Ma 'am. Colonel.

Policeman just delivered this.

Do you understand the Article 31 rights you've just been given? Yes, ma 'am. And

you're willing to speak with me?

Don't have anything to hide, ma 'am.

From the Oxy Police, your case file and personal effects corporate.

You swore that you had never been to the doll or a dance club where the girl

worked. I haven't, ma 'am.

This is from the club.

It's found with your personal items returned by the police.

It's a frame, Gunny. They must have stuck the ticket in with my stuff to

look guilty.

Stand up.

Lift up your shirt.

Where'd you get those scratches, Corporal?

Police did it to me, Gunny.

The victim's statement says she scratched you when you raped her.

exact spot.

Police must have dummied up the report, ma 'am. Do you remember the policeman

who did that?

Yes, ma 'am. Got a long look at his name tag.

Captain Giroux.

Giroux, are you sure?

I'll never forget him, ma 'am.

He did that with his fingernail? Yes, ma 'am.

You're lying, Corporal.

What? I don't understand, ma 'am. Captain Giroux is impeccably groomed.

nails are cut to the knob. He couldn't have scratched you.

Want me to take the prisoner back to Captain Giroux, ma 'am? Wait a minute.

can't. They'll kill me. You tell me a story that makes sense or you go back

Corporal.

She was just a dance hall girl.

Gunnery Sergeant, put Corporal Lassiter under arrest.

Confine him to quarters.

Yes, ma 'am.

Commander, your word. Yes, your word.

Colonel McKenzie and the gunny were sent to the consulate in Aceh to negotiate

the return of a Marine accused of rape.

Apparently, the incident inflamed an already tense situation.

The consulate is now under attack.

Attack? There was an explosion on ports of injuries.

We don't know anything about Mack or the gunny as yet.

Aye, sir.

Captain Windell, how long have you been flying with Air Domain?

22 years.

Were you on flight 655 the night of April 12th?

Yes, sir.

As a passenger, what we call deadheading. If there's an extra seat,

employees fly free.

Now, did you, Captain, on this flight, have the occasion to speak with the man

who died, Anton Summer?

Yes.

When I was coming out of the lavatory, he was waiting to go in.

I saw the cigarettes in his hand, and when I informed him that if he smoked,

captain would have to call the U .S. Marshals.

He said, let him try and see what happens.

So later, Captain, when you saw Mr. Summer arguing by the flight deck, what

you think?

That he was trying to make good on his threat.

Thank you. Nothing further, ma 'am.

Counselor?

This conversation you had with Mr. Summer allegedly threatening the

the defendant hear this?

No, no, sir. I kept it quiet. I didn't want to alarm anyone.

So even though you were aware of this threat, Lieutenant Commander Keegan

wasn't? No, sir.

What is airline policy on dealing with potentially violent passengers?

It's called verbal judo.

Talk, persuade, if all else fails, subdue.

Subdue, not kill.

Thank you, Captain. No further questions.

Redirect, Commander?

Yes, ma 'am.

Captain, after your conversation with Mr. Summer, what did you do?

I informed the crew to keep an eye on the man.

He might be trouble.

So you felt that Mr. Sommer was a potential threat?

Yes, sir.

He was very belligerent.

And I've flown long enough to know if someone might be a problem or if they're

just blowing off steam.

Thank you. That will be all, men.

Colonel.

Flash communicate from Washington.

Highest precedent.

We're closing the consulate and evacuating all American citizens.

Inform Gunnery Sergeant Simpkins to contact anyone with an American passport

have him gathered at the airport at 2300 for immediate evac.

Right away, sir. Two or three hours. We have a very specific protocol to follow.

If you'll excuse me, Colonel.

Colonel! I was worried. Are you all right?

My mother and I hit in the basement after the explosion.

They gave you a gun.

When did this one? Colonel, local staff has to leave.

Go find your mom.

Gunnery Sergeant Simpkins, believe it's safe?

Well, the crowd will let the locals through.

It's us they want.

It's not fair.

I could be very helpful.

You'd be safer at home.

You see?

I give you a gun, too.

Well, Liana, thank you. I love it.

Hold this right there.

Police are pulling out, ma 'am.

Can't control the mob. Need to clear the game.

You're dead.

You next in a chain of command, Staff Sergeant?

Yes, ma 'am, but... What is it?

Something happened out there, Colonel.

I can't see.

Chance your eyesight. We'll come back, Staff Sergeant.

It might be shock of the concussion.

Show up so corporal.

Colonel McKenzie. Right here, Staff Sergeant.

My men have their NEO procedures.

They know what to do.

Me down and Corporal Lassiter under arrest.

We're short two men.

General Sergeant Galindez and I can cover.

I'd rather you stay close. I'm going to be needing you, Colonel.

We should deploy two Marines on the roof. I want to keep an eye on that

show a presence.

Rules of engagement here are restricted.

I am aware of the rules, Colonel.

We've already been fired upon. Twenty minutes ago. There's no immediate

and there must be an imminent threat before your men can fire.

It's a hostile mob.

There are unarmed women and children in that mob, Wakefield. You put your men

outside, there's a good chance they'll have to use force.

Yes, ma 'am. If they defend themselves, civilians will die. They'll be blamed.

We have to take that chance. It's just a matter of time before that mob gets

inside here, Colonel. And we'll be gone before they do. If we keep things under

control, we can evacuate everyone without a confrontation.

How long before they leave that, Colonel?

The hero from the Guadalcanal will be here in one hour and 45 minutes.

Do you have something to say, Staff Sergeant? We have two machine guns

downstairs, ma 'am.

Show of force.

Might just make them think twice.

And it might not.

If there's a massacre, Staff Sergeant, as a judge advocate, I'm advising you

against doing anything that could inflame this situation.

That's a lawyer talking, Colonel.

Marine first, lawyer second.

We both want a safe evacuation.

All right, Colonel.

Have my men initiate evac procedures to clear the roof. Yes, Death Sergeant.

Lieutenant Commander Keegan, what led to your confrontation with Anton Summer on

Air Domain Flight 655 last April 12th?

I overheard an argument between Mr. Summer and the stewardess.

Can you tell us what you did?

Well, nothing at first.

But then the argument got louder, and I saw the man getting very agitated.

The stewardess made eye contact with me like she needed help. Is this where you

became involved, Commander?

Yes, sir.

I asked what the problem was.

The stewardess explained about the smoke detector and then went on to the flight

deck to call the marshals.

She asked me to keep an eye on Mr. Summer. What happened after the

left? I put myself in between Mr. Summer and the flight deck.

I told Mr. Summer to sit down, but he refused.

Commander, did Mr.

Summer say or do anything to you that made you especially wary of him?

Yes, sir.

He said it was an ex -con on parole.

He also said he wasn't going back to jail for smoking.

What happened next?

The suitors opened the door to the flight deck, exposing the flight crew to

Summer. He made a move for the open door.

I pushed him away, and that's when he dropped the water bottle.

Commander, why did you feel it necessary to take action?

Mr. Summer grabbed onto the emergency exit handle, sir.

I tried to pry his hand off, but he was strong. He wouldn't let go.

That's when I reacted.

Lieutenant Sims testified earlier, Commander, that she didn't see Anton

take a hold of the emergency exit handle. How could she, sir?

Our bodies were blocking her view.

Now, I have one last question, Commander.

Why didn't you just try to subdue Anton Summer?

I was trying to subdue him, sir. He wouldn't let me.

He kept pulling on that handle, and I grabbed him.

He was trying to crash us, sir.

I wasn't going to let that plane go down.

Thank you.

That'll be all, ma 'am.

Counselor?

Commander, you stated Mr. Summer grabbed the emergency handle when you killed

him.

Yes, sir.

Why would he do that?

I don't know what was in his mind, sir.

If you didn't know what was in his mind, how do you know he was a threat to the

people on that plane?

I don't know his motivation, but I know what he did.

Or was about to do.

Yes. But how do you know that he was actually about to pull that handle?

I just know that he was, sir.

But you couldn't possibly know that for a fact, could you, Commander?

Not unless I'd let the plane go down, no, sir.

Commander, did you enter the airport bar prior to boarding Flight 655 that day?

Yes, sir.

Did you speak to a Marine Lance Corporal Edgerton?

I spoke to some Marine. I don't know what his name was.

I asked him to sit down. He was blocking the TV. A game was on.

Had you been drinking, Commander?

I'd had a couple beers, yes, sir.

Just two?

I wasn't drunk, sir.

And I had coffee on the plane, so... Thank you, Commander.

No further questions, Your Honor.

Commander Rabb?

The defense rests, Your Honor.

You may step down.

Your Honor, the government wishes to call a rebuttal witness, Marine Lance

Corporal Edgerton.

Ma 'am, Marine Lance Corporal Edgerton is not on the government's witness list.

He only came forward this morning, Your Honor. He just read about the case in

the paper.

Ma 'am, we've not had time to interview this witness.

I'll allow the Lance Corporal's testimony.

But I will give the defense time to interview the witness before cross.

Thank you, sir.

Lieutenant Commander Keegan should have told us about this, sir. Yes, he should

have.

Bud. Look, I was trying to get a hold of you earlier about what happened to

Harriet on Cross.

It's over, sir.

Look, it never should have happened. You were first chair, sir.

I was paying for my drink when I felt a bottle shoved in my back, sir.

I looked around and Lieutenant Commander Keegan's in my face, calling me a

jarhead, sir, telling me I'm blocking the TV.

When I told him to back off, he said maybe we should step outside, sir.

Did you have reason to believe Lieutenant Commander Keegan had been

Yes, sir. He had two empties on his table, plus the one in his hand, sir.

We have one helo inbound to our position in 30 minutes.

Give us enough time to complete our event procedures, Colonel. How long do

need, Mr. George? We have another hour.

Let's delay the helo, ma 'am.

Fox Lima 04, this is Colonel McKenzie.

Be advised, we have a hostile crowd threatening to overrun us. We are not

for evac.

Stay clear out of sight. We'll contact you at 0130.

Consulate, this is 04 Wilco.

Standing by.

We don't want to keep the helicopter close.

That's the last thing you want, Mr. Sarge. The crowd sees the helo and don't

tell them what they're going to do.

I'm ordering my men to bring up the machine guns.

Might need to use them after all, Colonel.

I concur, Staff Sergeant.

The accused and counsel will rise.

Announce your finding.

Lieutenant Commander Arnold Keegan, United States Navy.

On the charge and specification of voluntary manslaughter, this court finds

guilty.

This didn't have to happen, Commander. It shouldn't have happened.

Why didn't you tell us about the bar, sir?

I didn't think it made any difference.

What's the difference between being perceived as a hero or an angry drunk?

I wasn't drunk.

You didn't tell us what happened in the bar. The panel saw we were caught off

guard. To them, it looked like you were hiding something.

Look, if you told us about the incident with the Marine, we could have dealt

with it up front in your testimony. We could have diffused the impact.

You did the best job you could, Commander.

It's not over yet. You still have the sentencing.

As far as I'm concerned, this is the only chance we've got.

Have you completed any of that procedure, Mr. Dart? Almost, but not

to get us out of here.

What is he doing here? Mr. Dart went to contact the local police, turned

Corporal Lassiter over to him. It's the only way to keep from being overrun,

Colonel. We both know what's going to happen to Corporal Lassiter. We turn him

over to those locals. This is a diplomatic solution to the crisis.

Sacrifice! This is my consulate. These are my people, and I have the right to

protect them. It's under my command, Mr. Dart.

Actually, he's in my custody, Staff Sergeant. Corporal Lassiter is my

Then it's your call.

Surely you can see what's at stake here. Yes, I do.

Corporal Lassiter stays.

Marines do take care of their own.

The helo will be here in 20 minutes, at which time all remaining personnel will

be evacuated.

Thank you.

We don't want your thanks, Corporal. You're a disgrace to that unit.

Get them out of here.

Yes, sir.

Busy, Commander?

Sir, I was working on Lieutenant Commander Keegan's sentencing argument.

Not feeling inspired?

Have a seat.

Well, Admiral, I could have won an acquittal, sir, had it not been for an

unfortunate circumstance.

Did you ever consider the possibility that she might have lost the case

No, sir.

I admire your confidence.

Commander, your client did what he was trained to do.

Sir? He paid the price.

for doing his duty.

Well, I know that the commander is haunted by the incident, sir.

He always will be.

But he saved 139 lives, and he needs to remember that.

Uh, Admiral, I haven't heard anything about the colonel.

I'll, uh... I'll let you know as soon as I hear something.

Thank you, sir.

We are about to be overrun. I repeat, we are about to be overrun.

Roger, Colonel. We're inbound. Three minutes out for landing.

Stand by here, Benny. Aye, ma 'am.

Staff Sergeant, get everyone staged and in position.

There's enough people.

We're going to form two lines.

We're going to leave this place in an orderly fashion. Let's go.

The gate's going to give way any time, Colonel.

We need immediate evac. Do you read?

This is Fox Lima 04.

We're taking Skull Arms fire.

We're in an emergency situation here, 04. We have to be extracted ASAP.

My orders are not to put the aircraft or its personnel in danger with live fire.

We have to wave off and deport the pattern.

I'll stand by our airborne and look for a better window. 04, out.

Staff Sergeant, is there any other emergency evac route?

Not that I'm aware of, ma 'am.

Corporal DeLuca?

Don't know of any other staff sergeant.

Freeze! Hold your fire!

Donna, you shouldn't be here.

I know you're in trouble.

I know a way out of this place.

Lieutenant Keegan has spent his entire adult life defending people.

Navy SEALs do the things that we can't.

Won't.

Things we don't know about.

They take the dirty jobs.

When Anton Sommer took hold of the handle to the emergency exit, he was one

away from taking the life of every person aboard that plane.

Others saw the fight and did nothing.

Lieutenant Commander Keegan did what they could not.

He did the dirty work.

as he's always done our dirty work.

Had the lieutenant commander not been on flight 655, we would be mourning the

loss of 139 people.

So I hope when you pass judgment on the lieutenant commander, you'll keep in

mind those 139 souls and know that they would not be alive today

if not for this man sitting before you.

You deserve a medal, Liliana. I already have one.

We need to direct the helo to a new landing zone.

I know a place. My school.

It is very near. And there is a large yard. Where exactly is your school,

Liliana? Very near the store that sells guava jelly.

I don't think I can tell that to the helo pilot.

I know the school, Colonel. Maybe two clicks north of the big oil refinery.

Fox Lima 04, this is Colonel McKenzie. Do you copy?

I copy you, Colonel. Go ahead.

Safe pickup at a schoolyard. You'll find it two clicks north of the oil

refinery.

Acknowledge my last?

Fox Lima 04, do you copy?

What are we doing now?

Proceed to the LZ. If they hurt us, they'll be there within a few minutes.

Let's go. Keep moving.

Captain Bradley, have the members reached the sentence?

We have, Your Honor.

Will the defense please rise?

Announce the sentence.

Lieutenant Commander Arnold Keegan, United States Navy.

This court sentences you to receive a punitive letter of reprimand and

recommends that you undergo anger management counseling.

This court is dismissed.

The situation in Aceh province continues to deteriorate as demonstrators lob

city streets, chanting slogans and burning flags.

Tensions have been running high here ever since... Congratulations on the

sentence.

Thank you, sir. No prison time. He keeps his commission. Of course, promotions

won't come that easily.

Must have been a hell of a speech.

We should know something about the criminal within the hour.

May we come in, sir?

Yeah, yeah. Oh, hey, please.

I'm glad you're here. Listen, Harriet, I wanted to apologize.

No, sir.

There's no need to apologize.

We all had a job to do.

Well, then... Why are we here?

Because we wanted to stay with you until you find out about Colonel McKenzie.

If that's okay with you, sir.

Absolutely. Have a seat. Come on in.

Shouldn't be too long, you know.

This is here. This is my desk.

Right at the front.

Figures. I like to be closer.

I ask them any questions.

You ask a lot, too. But that's a good thing.

I hear guns many nights.

People shooting.

Moving to the streets.

I know when they come close.

And when they move away.

They are moving closer.

Then we better move too. We don't even know if the helo got your last

transmission. Give the helo five more minutes.

Colonel.

Worst comes to worst, I got some friends in the city. Locals. They'll help us

out. At risk to their own lives?

I did a few good turns for some families.

I'm impressed, Sergeant.

Well, do what's necessary as Marines and what's possible as civilians, Colonel.

You bring my picture?

Yeah, it's right here.

I will find it.

Gather at the door.

When we exit, walk quickly and in single file.

Wait until we're gone, until it's safe, and then go home. Do you understand?

Safe, Liliana.

All right, single file. Let's move.

All right, let's go.

You got to get them moving.

Go. All right, let's go, people. Don't panic.

Good.

Stay calm.

Let's go.

Single file.

Come on, ma 'am.

All right.

I'm so glad you called.

I've been feeling kind of bad because, well, I was so mean last time we talked.

Chloe, it's okay.

Are you all right? You sound kind of funny.

Sure, I'm fine.

How are you doing?

Good. Guess who's here with me?

Jingo. He's got some behind the ear for me, will you? He likes that.

How's he doing?

Great. He's like a part of the family.

He follows me at Scout everywhere.

You remember Scout, right?

You're a horse. How could I forget?

Where are you? It sounds like you're calling from the moon.

Yeah, I'm in the Indian Ocean.

Cool. Oh, you seen any Indians?

Joke. Bad joke.

Hey, so you know I'm going to an NSYNC concert tomorrow night?

Amy got us tickets.

And then her dad's taking us, and then we're going to meet Carly and Danny

there. And then we're all going to rent movies and bring them back here.

Oh, and I got the cutest skirt to wear.

My grandma thinks it's too short, but I told her it's the style.

You'd think it was really cool.

I don't know.
