if I don't come outta this,

you get these boys home-you hear?

509

00:
35:36,509 -- 00:35:38,718

Don't f***ing even go there, sarge.

510

00:
35:39,679 -- 00:35:41,388

Don't be afraid of it.

511

00:
35:41,639 -- 00:35:42,556

Afraid of what?

512

00:
35:43,057 -- 00:35:44,266

You taking over.

513

00:
35:46,018 -- 00:35:47,269

Is that all you think you are to me,

sarge?

514

00:
35:47,436 -- 00:35:48,770

A f***in' way to dodge command?

515

00:
35:50,231 -- 00:35:53,108

No disrespect, sarge, f*** you.

516

00:
35:54,193 -- 00:35:55,527

Coming in. Easy.

517

00:
35:55,987 -- 00:35:57,821

Hold her steady. Just a second, baby.

518

00:
36:11,586 -- 00:36:13,253

Don't f***in' move!

519

00:
36:14,630 -- 00:36:18,675

Get your weapon off my man.

520

00:
36:18,843 -- 00:36:21,553

Come on, Lieutenant.

This motherf***er was in the other room

521

00:
36:21,721 -- 00:36:23,763

on a cell phone when

we heard the first blast.

522

00:
36:24,307 -- 00:36:25,557

Now we're all in the same room again

523

00:
36:25,725 -- 00:36:27,559

and he's on a cell phone

in another room.

524

00:
36:28,477 -- 00:36:29,186

Do the math.

525

00:
36:30,271 -- 00:36:32,856

You don't belleve me? Check his f***ing

cell phone. Hit the readout button.

526

00:
36:34,692 -- 00:36:46,036

[SPEAKS ARABIC]

527

00:
36:49,624 -- 00:36:51,374

No! No, no!

528

00:
36:58,549 -- 00:37:02,552

Cover the doc and sarge.

Nobody gets in here.

529

00:
37:02,720 -- 00:37:03,970

Nobody.

530

00:
37:43,719 -- 00:37:49,474

Who can I trust, if I can't

trust my own men? Tell me.

531

00:
38:31,225 -- 00:38:32,642

Lieutenant, you okay?

532

00:
38:39,150 -- 00:38:41,318

All that matters is

you can trust me - Alright?

533

00:
38:41,485 -- 00:38:45,155

I trust you, and we gotta

wade outta this sh*t together

534

00:
38:45,364 -- 00:38:48,450

or it's gonna f***in'

sink both of us, okay?

535

00:
38:48,659 -- 00:38:50,076

Together, yes.

536

00:
38:57,084 -- 00:38:58,752

Keep pressure on that blood bag, Carver.

537

00:
39:01,464 -- 00:39:04,841

Jesus Christ.

I'm no surgeon, man.

538

00:
39:06,635 -- 00:39:09,596

Your folks are docs, right?

It's aImost the same thing.

539

00:
39:11,265 -- 00:39:13,183

I'm not wired right for this sh*t!

540

00:
39:17,438 -- 00:39:19,356

That's why I joined up, Deke...

541

00:
39:19,523 -- 00:39:22,734

To get away from all that pressure

to be daddy's little doctor

542

00:
39:23,611 -- 00:39:27,906

as soon as I finished basic,

they found out I was pre-med in college.

543

00:
39:28,074 -- 00:39:30,700

Bam! SuddenIy I'm a medic.

544

00:
39:32,453 -- 00:39:34,204

Sarge deserves better than this.

545

00:
39:35,915 -- 00:39:37,415

Better than I can give him.

546

00:
39:37,625 -- 00:39:42,337

Hey! One foot in front of

the other gets it done. Alright?

547

00:
39:42,505 -- 00:39:44,756

It's the onIy way we're

going to get through this sh*t.

548

00:
39:45,508 -- 00:39:47,008

You just gotta have faith.

549

00:
39:57,812 -- 00:39:59,312

Doc, how we doin'?

550

00:
39:59,522 -- 00:40:02,399

I don't know!

Maybe sarge can field that one.

551

00:
40:03,401 -- 00:40:06,027

Got a beat or two

left in me yet, doc.

552

00:
40:06,195 -- 00:40:11,116

Look, whlle you been goin'

through this I been thinkin' sarge,

553

00:
40:11,283 -- 00:40:14,828

And I never really thanked you,

554

00:
40:15,621 -- 00:40:21,209

I mean said the words for

everything you've done for me,

555

00:
40:22,128 -- 00:40:28,299

Thank the army, son.

I do...along with that judge.

556

00:
40:28,509 -- 00:40:29,717

What judge, sarge?

557

00:
40:30,553 -- 00:40:32,720

One who gave me the choice...

558

00:
40:32,930 -- 00:40:37,267

between servin' time or servin'

my country.

559

00:
40:37,435 -- 00:40:40,228

Are you trying to tell us

you were a badass once?

560

00:
40:40,438 -- 00:40:43,523

I had a thing for

fast cars that weren't mine.

561

00:
40:45,693 -- 00:40:47,610

Army straightened my ass out...

562

00:
40:48,362 -- 00:40:51,739

Sh*t! There's a special

f***ing delivery for us.

563

00:
40:53,826 -- 00:40:55,493

double time...double time...

567

00:
41:00,541 -- 00:41:04,294

Deke, stay here with Doc
