A Marine Story
00:
01:22,165 -- 00:01:27,2112
00:
02:15,510 -- 00:02:17,344- Hi.
- Hi.
3
00:
02:17,387 -- 00:02:19,847So when did Frank's close down?
4
00:
02:19,889 -- 00:02:22,850Oh, two years, three years ago.
5
00:
02:22,892 -- 00:02:24,101- Oh?
- Yeah.
6
00:
02:27,355 -- 00:02:30,149Is it OK if I
stow this here while I shop?
7
00:
02:30,900 -- 00:02:33,610Uh, yeah, go ahead, honey.
8
00:
02:40,160 -- 00:02:42,119Can I get a pack of smokes?
9
00:
02:42,162 -- 00:02:44,538Um...sure.
What kind do you want?
10
00:
02:44,581 -- 00:02:46,206What do those say right there?
11
00:
02:46,249 -- 00:02:48,125These are lights.
12
00:
02:48,168 -- 00:02:50,711What are those ones,
those ones down there...
13
00:
02:52,755 -- 00:02:54,715Just those blue ones there.
14
00:
02:54,757 -- 00:02:56,675These are menthol flavored.
15
00:
02:56,718 -- 00:02:58,552The other ones there,
to the right.
16
00:
02:58,595 -- 00:03:00,470$6.24 with tax.
17
00:
03:01,347 -- 00:03:03,390Um...
18
00:
03:06,227 -- 00:03:08,812You know what...
19
00:
03:08,855 -- 00:03:10,856I'm gonna have to come back.
20
00:
03:12,358 -- 00:03:14,318[car alarm blaring,
man yelling]
21
00:
03:17,197 -- 00:03:18,530Call 911 !
22
00:
03:19,699 -- 00:03:21,491I will break this arm.
I will break it!
23
00:
03:21,534 -- 00:03:22,868Hold still...
24
00:
03:24,204 -- 00:03:25,537Hold still!
25
00:
03:37,717 -- 00:03:40,344That boy is just
swirlin' down the drain.
26
00:
03:40,386 -- 00:03:42,179Seems like they all are.
27
00:
03:42,222 -- 00:03:44,431Didn't have meth labs around
when we were that age.
28
00:
03:44,474 -- 00:03:46,683Things don't always change
for the better, I guess.
29
00:
03:46,726 -- 00:03:48,185No, they don't.
30
00:
03:48,228 -- 00:03:50,896I don't remember it being yourjob
31
00:
03:50,939 -- 00:03:52,689I wasn't looking
for trouble, Max.
32
00:
03:52,732 -- 00:03:54,858That's not the way he tells it.
33
00:
03:54,901 -- 00:03:57,569Look, four deployments would
make Gandhi trigger-happy,
34
00:
03:57,612 -- 00:03:59,238so I get you
might be high-strung.
35
00:
03:59,280 -- 00:04:02,074But stand down, soldier.
You gotta leave this stuff to me.
36
00:
04:02,116 -- 00:04:04,534I know, it was stupid,
it won't happen again.
37
00:
04:04,577 -- 00:04:07,079You've got a more
important fight.
38
00:
04:08,414 -- 00:04:11,708I'd give you a lift,
but I'm a little short-handed.
39
00:
04:11,751 -- 00:04:13,293It's fine.
40
00:
04:13,336 -- 00:04:15,087- How long you in town?
- Couple ofweeks.
41
00:
04:15,129 -- 00:04:16,421Good.
42
00:
04:16,464 -- 00:04:18,382Say hi to the General
when you speak to him.
43
00:
04:18,424 -- 00:04:19,800I will.
44
00:
04:23,346 -- 00:04:25,222Hey, Max.
45
00:
04:25,265 -- 00:04:26,890There was a girl.
46
00:
04:27,475 -- 00:04:30,435- Tall, brown hair?
- Yeah.
47
00:
04:44,701 -- 00:04:46,576You carry any tequila?
48
00:
05:14,647 -- 00:05:16,148[door creaks open]
49
00:
05:16,190 -- 00:05:18,108Not open yet.
50
00:
05:20,320 -- 00:05:23,613Holy crap!
Is that an Everett?
51
00:
05:23,656 -- 00:05:24,698Hi, Shelly.
52
00:
05:24,741 -- 00:05:27,451Alexandra Everett,
what the hell you doin' home?
53
00:
05:27,493 -- 00:05:29,453Don't you know there's a war on?
54
00:
05:31,664 -- 00:05:34,666How's your dad and your brother?
Everybody still got all their pieces?
55
00:
05:34,709 -- 00:05:36,168Yeah, so far.
56
00:
05:36,210 -- 00:05:38,295We pray for that,
yes, we do.
57
00:
05:38,338 -- 00:05:40,172You're lookin'
marvelous as ever.
58
00:
05:40,214 -- 00:05:41,798Thanks. You, too.
59
00:
05:41,841 -- 00:05:43,925Oh, please.
Marines aren't supposed to lie.
60
00:
05:43,968 -- 00:05:45,427Let me buy you a drink.
61
00:
05:45,470 -- 00:05:48,472No, thanks. I just stopped by
to say hi and use the head.
62
00:
05:48,514 -- 00:05:50,307OK, you know where it is.
63
00:
05:51,142 -- 00:05:53,643You on foot?
I can give you a ride to the house.
64
00:
05:53,686 -- 00:05:54,603No, thanks.
65
00:
05:54,645 -- 00:05:56,855I need to walk off
that train ride.
66
00:
05:56,898 -- 00:05:59,149Ten miles ain't a walk, honey.
That's a hike.
67
00:
07:11,431 -- 00:07:14,099Three new messages...
68
00:
07:14,142 -- 00:07:15,559Alexandra, hi,
69
00:
07:15,601 -- 00:07:17,686this is Tracy Flores
from San Lucas Realty.
70
00:
07:17,728 -- 00:07:19,896Could you please call me
back and just confirm
71
00:
07:19,939 -- 00:07:23,316that you are there and that
I shouldn't book the house?
72
00:
07:23,359 -- 00:07:26,486Thanks.
73
00:
07:26,529 -- 00:07:28,989Alex, it's your father.
74
00:
07:29,031 -- 00:07:32,033on your cell, with no luck.
75
00:
07:32,076 -- 00:07:35,537The realtor said something
about you staying at the house.
76
00:
07:35,580 -- 00:07:39,124If you are, call me.
77
00:
07:39,167 -- 00:07:42,252Hey, Alex, it's Joe.
Just heard the news.
78
00:
07:42,295 -- 00:07:44,296Wow..
79
00:
08:31,135 -- 00:08:34,429And we had a choice of our own -
either take the word of a madman
80
00:
08:34,472 -- 00:08:38,683or take action to defend
America and the world.
81
00:
08:38,726 -- 00:08:40,977Faced with that choice,
82
00:
08:41,020 -- 00:08:45,524I will defend America
every time.
83
00:
08:47,109 -- 00:08:50,028It's generally believed
there's been a let up in the
84
00:
08:50,071 -- 00:08:53,281violence of late in Iraq -
that is until today...
85
00:
08:53,324 -- 00:08:55,492The car bomb ripped through
the mostly Shiite area
86
00:
08:55,535 -- 00:08:57,994of North Baghdad,
called Al Haria.
87
00:
08:58,037 -- 00:09:02,040The car, parked next to
a bus stop at rush hour...
88
00:
09:02,083 -- 00:09:04,501The explosion in the
mainly Shiite area
89
00:
09:04,544 -- 00:09:06,670engulfed shops
and residential flats,
90
00:
09:06,712 -- 00:09:09,172causing chaos and confusion
amidst the busy streets...
91
00:
09:09,215 -- 00:09:11,424The meth lab explosion
in a Bear Valley home last night
92
00:
09:11,467 -- 00:09:14,177has left one person dead
and another with severe burns.
93
00:
09:14,220 -- 00:09:16,179It's the third meth lab
explosion this year...
94
00:
09:16,764 -- 00:09:17,722Hey!
95
00:
09:19,100 -- 00:09:20,850You bought this?
96
00:
09:20,893 -- 00:09:22,769She's still got some life in her.
97
00:
09:22,812 -- 00:09:24,604I see you put the flag up.
98
00:
09:24,647 -- 00:09:26,648An Everett is home.
99
00:
09:26,691 -- 00:09:27,857For now.
100
00:
09:29,569 -- 00:09:31,236Take a look in my back seat.
101
00:
09:33,489 -- 00:09:36,700Her name is Saffron -
Saffron Snow.
102
00:
09:37,577 -- 00:09:39,911- You remember the Snows?
- Yeah.
103
00:
09:39,954 -- 00:09:41,705
