My client says loud and clear,

that he did.

The prosecutor claims that he did not.

But then we hear communications officer

Kenneth Jensen, Butcher, tell us

it was he, who saw the

muzzle fire coming from Compound 6.

That it was he who identified

Compound 6 as a military target

and not as a civilian target,

as the prosecutor claims.

My client, Claus Michael Pedersen,

had PID.

If Danish soldiers, who put

their lives one the line, are prosecuted

for violations of the military

criminal code, on conjecture,

THEN we'll be somewhere,

we do not want to be.

Therefore, I must call

for acquittal on all charges.

And with that, I rest my case. Thank you.

Now it's your turn, Claus Michael

Pedersen, you have the last word.

Do you have anything to add,

that has not already been said?

No.

Then we will retire

and deliberate on the case.

The verdict will be handed down

on Thursday the 14th

Let me go in front.

This one's good!

Here! Throw it.

This one's good.

Two!

Dad?

Yes.

Look at this rock.

Did you found an nice rock?

No. ...'s got a hole in it.

What?

Hold it like this.

Show him a rock skip.

Hello!

Can you see me?

How many fingers am I holding up?

Two.

Okay, are you ready?

No!!

What?

What a weak shot.

Yeah, it was a silly shot.

We will now pronounce the verdict.

Claus Michael Pedersen is acquitted.

The Treasury will pay the costs of the trial.

Can I ... Can I ...

Can I please have order in the court?

A reaction is understandable,

but please, refrain from it.

Please sit down, and I will provide

the reasoning for the verdict.

The verdict is unanimous,

and that means

that we all three agree with the result.

This is Afghanistan, right?

Mhm.

And that is Denmark, right?

Mhm.

And this is Madagascar,

that is South Africa

and this is Brazil,

and this is Italy.

Or I mean ...

What was it?

USA.

USA.

Come.

USA. USA.

Now go to bed. USA.

Dad?

Do you have to go away again?

No. I don't.

So you'll stay at home now?

Yes.

Could you tuck me in tomorrow then?

Could you?

I sure can.

I love you.

I love you too. Good night.
