"Relax, I want you to tell me exactly what happened." "Don't lie, don't embellish." "Tell me exactly what happened." "That's the guy?" "I don't know." "Alright." "You ready?" "What?" "Just walk by me." "Oh!" "No." "No, I'm staying here." "Jesus Christ." "You wanna wait here?" "Please." "Wait over there." "You got a problem, mother--?" "Let's get something straight." "You like that?" "A deal's a fuckin' deal, asshole." "That was so cool!" "I don't fuckin' need this shit." "But you wrecked that guy." "I don't fuckin' need this shit." "You wrecked that guy!" "That was" "Listen, man!" "You fuckin' think I like doin' shit like this?" "Fuckin' answer me, you think I like this shit?" "I don't know." "Jesus Christ!" "What the fuck are you doin', man?" "What the fuck are you doin' with this guy?" "Man, we are fuckin' leavin' soon." "This is what you're doin'?" "You don't understand." "I don't fuckin' understand?" "Tell me." "Man, you take a fuckin' walk." "You can't leave me here!" "You put me in this fuckin' position!" "Come on!" "Dixon!" "Dixon, I'm sorr-- Dixon!" "Guys, come on, I wanna go home." "Hey, buddy." "It's us." "We're here." "Where are you?" "We're worried." "Give us a call." "Alright?" "Probably working on number 10." "Yeah, he's a little out of control." "A little?" "Where you at right now?" "You still not gonna go?" "It's just this whole thing is so wrong." "I just know it." "We're making new enemies every day." "And it's a war we can't win." "Whoa, you don't know that." "I don't know it?" "I believe it." "I believe you." "I do." "I absolutely believe you." "But you need to know that I believe it's the right thing to do." "I do, man." "I think that if we don't do this now, it's gonna be too late." "Nothing left to fight for." "'Cause as soon as they can kill us, they will." "As soon as they get nukes, that's it, it's over, man." "I'm gonna tell you something else." "New York City, right here, we're gonna be first." "Look, I" "I'm basically a fuck-up." "I know that." "I do." "But I believe" "I believe in this place and all of it." "And the thing is, is that, I choose to drive that cab." "I--I choose to be your friend." "I choose, right now, I am choosing to be in this bar." "And that's the point, man." "That's--that's what's at stake, that's-- it's choice, it's freedom." "It's freedom to be whatever the fuck you wanna be, even if it is a fuck-up." "I mean, we're-- we're in a fight, for a way of life." "And that's what I believe." "Aaron Feller, reporting for duty, sir." "You stand up." "You stand up and you fight." "You fight." "Are you with me?" "Are you with me?" "Are you with me?" "Good." "Let's take 'em down." "Let's take 'em down!" "I would die for you." "I would die for you, sir." "I would die for you." "Would I die for you?" "If you're watching this, then I didn't make it." "Either that or I did make it to the five-year mark and we can have a good laugh together." "I tried, but-- it just wasn't meant to be." "I'm okay with that, 'cause I got to know you." "You were a part of my life." "Baby, I don 't know many people in this world who would've stood beside someone the way you did." "You had your whole life ahead of you, and--you didn't leave me for a second." "And I know that we'll never get to do-- all the things-- all the things that we talked about, but, I love you so much." "No matter where I am" "I will always be with you." "I am not supposed to leave you." "Fuck!" "So--when do you go?" "Tomorrow." "Wow." "Will you do something for me?" "Come here." "See this?" "These are my Dad's." "He fought in something called the Korean War." "Know what that is?" "It's kinda like what we're doing now." "Now listen." "I want you to hang on to these for me, okay?" "Hey, I'm gonna come back." "I'm gonna get those from you." "Okay?" "So you don't lose them." "No?" "No." "You know if you do, I'm gonna kick your ass, right?" "Come on." "Be strong." "Shhh." "Be strong." "Be strong." "First state your name and your rank." "First lieutenant Kevin Tilder." "You've had command of what?" "Bradley Platoon consisting of 39 soldiers." "39 soldiers, M2A2's Bradley fighting vehicles" "The other night you and your crew were involved in some pretty heavy action." "Do you want to explain that?" "We were on our way back from a five-hour mission." "Drop clearance on what we do particularly roadside bombs, improvised explosive devices." "IED's, enemy ambushes." "We were on our way back as-- it was 3:30 AM, and my vehicle got hit by an IED, and destroyed tires, windshield, the engine, radio station." "After that" "The Iraqi police that were on patrol with us, they were stuck in the kill zone." "What do we want?" "Peace!" ""What do you want?"" ""Peace!"" "You know what it is." "It's the first generation not to grow up with the draft." "You don't know war, no draft, nothing." "Yeah, we had it pretty easy." "It had to end sometime." "Hey, guys." "What's up, man?" "Holy shit." "How you doin', Aaron?" "Huh?" "Are you okay?" "I'm fine." "You sure?" "Yeah." "I gotta tell ya, man, it seems like-- you're going off the deep end a little bit." "You do your thing, I'll do mine." "Why you saying that?" "We're in this together, you know that." "I don't need any help." "Hey, hey, hey." "We're asking." "Fuck you guys, alright?" "Hey!" "Whoa!" "Fuck you." "Fuck you." "Whoa!" "Aaron." "What are you doin', man?" "You gonna be there?" "7 a.m. Penn Station." "Peace." "(female voice sings soft song, indistinct]" "Come on, let's go." "I gotta tell you something." "What's up?" "I need you to know, no matter what you decide," "I get it, man." "I'm cool." "I get it." "I'm with you no matter what." "Yeah?" "Thank you, man." "Thank you." "Thank you." "Yeah." "You sleep well tonight, alright?" "You too, buddy." "I will." "Alright." "Hello." "Hello?" "Is someone there?" "It's A--it's Aaron." "It's me." "Wow." "Where are you these days?" "Huh?" "I'm in New York City." "Yeah." "How are you?" "How's Mom and Dad?" "Dad had a heart attack last year." "He's okay now." "But he had a rough time." "I got drafted." "Really?" "Well, good luck with that." "You've reached Molly and George." "Please leave a message and we'll call you back." "George?" "Great news!" "Senator Boone came through." "He's gonna help you get out of it." "You don't have to report tomorrow." "Will you call me when you get a chance, son?" "Love you." "Call me." "I'll stay for you if you ask me to." "No, you wouldn't." "I will wait for you." "I'll wait." "What else am I supposed to do?" "I love you." "I love you too." "If you decide to go then," "I don't know what I'll do." "But I'll be okay." "We can't plan everything." "Some things just happen." "You think I'm a good person?" "Subtitles extracted by LeapinLar"
