"Trial to be set for August." "Guilty!" "If I may approach." "You have 10 seconds to prove" "There's a manual component to the knife," "Or he goes to county." "Certainly, your honor." "Oh, this is nothing." "You try doithis in the moonlight" "In a driving rain in cambodia in 1968 as I did." "Ah!" "VoilÃ!" "There you are, your honor." "No longer a switchblade." "Uh, and if you see on " "If I dismiss the case, mr." "Infeld," "Will you stop talking?" "Certainly." "Mr. Singh is ordered released forthwith." "You can pick up the knife from the clerk's office downstairs." "Are we finished?" "Have a nice evening, your honor." "May I speak with you a moment?" "Yes." "Oh, by the way," "It's very generous of elisa to finish her workday," "Especially after you fired her." "Yeah." "That's what I wanted to talk to you about." "Elisa got it right." "Roggot it wrong." "Oh." "Well, what about the c.R.A. Exemption?" "Doesn't apply to properties" "In the downtown business district." "In fact, her diligence" "Will eventually earn this firm thousands in billable hours." "Really?" "Well, um, why don't we hire her full-time" "As a first-year associate?" "Really?" "Yeah." "Any colleague that you can recommend" "Is worth their weight in gold." "Anyway, I like the cut of her jib." "Yeah, her jib rocks," "But it's just -- I -- you don't have to." "Make her an offer -- 150." "You know, it's funny." "I could swear I've seen her somewhere before." "We know captain vaughn got the guys assigned to e.O.D." "We also know she's hiding something," "Since she wanted them off-base, but we still need a motive." "That, and some evidence would be nice." "Something hard." "I'll give a full salute" "If you can dig up some dirt on our c.O." "Unfortunately, she testified before congress in 2002" "As an expert in women's roles in the armed forces." "Wow." "I didn't even know about that." "Is it time to wave the white flag?" "Not quite yet." "Check this out." "Women are a valuable support asset" "In every branch of the armed forces." "But for the sake of everyone in uniform," "It's essential that we retain the ban" "On women engaging in front-line combat." "They do not have the strength or the endurance" "Of their male counterparts" "And would not only put themselves in harm's way" "But also their fellow service members." "I don't believe it." "She lied to us?" "You were right." "She does care about you." "She just cares about the navy more." "Vaughn wanted you disqualified from the e.O.D." "By sending in goons to rough you up." "Yeah." "It's a win-win for her." "The guys succeed in beating you up, you learn a lesson," "And learn that women don't belong on the front line." "Right." "And if you win the brawl," "You get court-martialed and booted from the program." "That's why she was pushing the plea deal." "She doesn't want you discharged." "She wants you ineligible." "There's our motive." "We still have nothing concrete," "And vaughn is too highly regarded and smart" "For us to tear her down on the stand." "You guys sure that she stuck up for you before?" "Positive." "100%." "All right." "Good." "'cause we're gonna have to risk your freedom to prove it." "+" "How did you feel when you found out that you'd been left off" "The list for the e.O.D. Unit?" "Angry, sir." "Well, you thought maybe that they had made a mistake" "In passing you over?" "I knew they did." "We consistently tested higher" "Than almost everyone on the base, man or woman." "Objection." "It's not petty officer ward's place to question authority." "It's her place to respect it." "What if george washington had never questioned authority?" "That flag would be a union jack." "I'd be wearing a wig right now," "And we'd all have weird monopoly-looking currency." "Sustained." "Save the speech for closing, mr." "Bash." "Petty officer ward," "You understand that fighting is chargeable under the ucmj?" "Yes, sir." "Did you start that fight?" "We didn't have a choice." "Because those two men provoked you?" "Yes, sir." "They provoked us because they didn't think" "We were tough enough to fight back." "Do you think that women are physically tougher than men?" "No, sir." "At our level, 99 out of 100 aren't," "But there are exceptions." "Am I looking at an exception?" "Yes, sir." "Hoo-rah!" "So, did you and petty officer ward" "Start a fight because you realized that the navy as a whole" "Needed to re-evaluate its requirements" "For women serving in combat," "And you decided to change it right then and right there?" "Yes, sir." "Do you understand what you're asking, counselor?" "I'm asking for the facts, jack." "I'm sorry." "It's from "stripes."" "It's a movie about -- I'll get it for you." "The girls saw an injustice" "And decided to change it." "We have another word for that in the military." "Your honor, our clients believe in what they're doing." "Petty officer toomin," "You're just simply testifying honestly" "To what you were thinking when you " "Sir, I have to insist that " "Sit down, captain vaughn." "Captain, we ask that the m.P.S" "Place petty officers toomin and ward under arrest" "For the additional charges of sedition and mutiny." "Gunnery sergeant, detain the defendants." "Aye-aye, sir." "Detail, secure the defendants." "Oops." ""oops"?" "She moving?" "No." "Come on." "Wait." "Captain, this is my fault." "How's that?" "I ordered the men to start the fight" "With petty officers ward and toomin." "You did?" "Yes, sir." "Petty officers ward and toomin" "Wanted to fight on the front lines." "Is this true, petty officer ward?" "Yes, sir." "I sent two male sailors to engage them," "Assuming the small beating they'd give the ladies" "Would prove to them why we leave the front lines to the men." "Instead, as usual, they exceeded my expectations," "And I should have come forward then," "But the whole thing got away from me." "Captain, you'll be detained at pmo until further notice." "As for the charges against petty officers ward and toomin," "The case is hereby dismissed." "Understood, sir." "I'm very sorry." "If anyone's gonna prove me wrong, it will be you two." "Good luck." "All rise!" "You guys rock!" "Congratulations." "Oh, thank you." "Thank you." "Thank you so much." "You guys gave us another shot at e.O.D." "Thank you." "Is there anything we can do you for you while you're still here?" "Oh, oh." "Do you guys have access to a nuclear sub?" "No." "No?" "Can we buzz the tower in an f-14?" "Yeah." "Uh, that's just a movie." "Well, good luck over there." "Keep your heads down." "Yes, sir." "We will." "All right." "Thank you." "I didn't make a mistake, did I?" "No." "You can finish out the summer." "oh." "Thank you " "Thank you for sticking your neck out for me." "Absolutely." "I've been authorized to make you an offer." "$150,000 a year." "What?" "Wow." "That's vegenerous." "Yeah." "It's certifiably insane," "And we'd like you to keep it quiet." "Uh, but I'll have to pass." "Pass?" "Yes." "I'm going to megget and towne." "You leveraged infeld/daniels for a better deal?" "No, no." "I -- they offered me less." "Well, I thought you'd be relieved." "I'm not." "You'll -- you'll finish out your -- your term, I hope?" "Yeah, of course." "Maybe then..." "You'll help me break in my new expense account." "Oh, I'm sure something can be arranged." "Okay." "Uh-oh." "What'd we do?" "Gentlemen..." "Thank you so very much." "For what?" "The gift." "Hey." "Where did you get " "The presentation was original." "I mean, you could have had it wrapped." "Oh, by the way, how did you know that I love knives?" "Well, sir, you..." "Killed a man with one once." "Yes." "I forgot." "We..." "Didn't." "Enjoy." "Yeah." "Hanna." "Going to the diner for victory burgers." "You got to come." "Uh, thanks, but I have work" "From the private sector that I need to, uh, catch up on." "Come on." "We couldn't have done it without you." "Oh, I'd say it was a team effort." "All right, well, here's to working together again." "Huh?" "That's for you." "I look forward to it." "On the right hand, too."
