Battleship Page #2

---

I'm the idiot who's gonna kick it

through your keepers face.

Get ready for overtime.

All eyes on Hopper.

He could send this into overtime.

And here we go! If Hopper...

Hopper sends it flying over the crossbar.

Nowhere near the goal.

Typical.

What a heartbreak for the US.

It was a very poor attempt by the

obviously injured Alex Hopper.

He refused to come out of the game

and his stubborness cost the US.

Congratulations to Japan.

Our 2012 RIMPAC Cup winners.

The Final as we sign off:

Japan 2, USA 1.

- Are you ready for this?

- Born.

- You sure?

- Never been more sure of anything in my life.

What are you gonna say?

I'm gonna walk up to him man to man,

look him straight in the eyes.

- With what words?

- My words

Ok.

Sir...

You're daughter is the best thing

that has ever happened to me.

She's smart, kind, beautiful, funny and

I'm madly in love with her.

It would be an honor to have your

permission to marry her.

- I love you

- I love you too.

First off I would like to welcome you all to

the RIMPAC international naval war games.

And I'ld like to welcome you on-board the greatest

fighting ship in american naval history,

the MIGHTY MO. The USS MISSOURI.

Sh*t!

- Hopper, your cover!

- Keeping you on your toes.

Hopper! Let's go, come on! Hopper.

That way's the Admiral. I knew that.

I knew that. We knew that.

The USS Missouri was the final battleship to

be completed by the United States,

before being decomisioned and replaced

by a more modern fleet of vessels,

like Destroyers.

What's the diference between a battleship and a destroyer?

You see...

Battleships are great ships,

But they're kinda like dinosaurs.

They're designed to take hits.

Kinda like a floating punching bag.

But then there are destroyers which are just awesome.

They're designed to dish it out like the Terminator!

- Are you a captain?

- No he's not a captain because he's always late.

- Come on!

- I fight the ship.

- Come on!

- Which is even better!

- Listen get it done. Get it done.

- Babe it's a formality. I'm all over it.

Ok! Go!

We have with us today,

veterans from the MISSOURI.

Who have served on her, some going back to WWII.

Examples of the finest men to have ever served in any navy.

Lt. Hopper, what an honor.

Thank you for joining us.

Good to be here.

And now as we prepare to embark in this outstanding...

- I'm nervous.

- Shades off.

...I would like the commanding officers to come to the stage.

Captain Nagata, Japan.

- Konnichiwa!

- Captain Lou, Malaysia.

- Allo! Allo!

It's so close. Like the way we say it.

He hates me.

He doesn't hate you! Shut up, shut up.

- Captain Jacks, Australia!

- G'Day!

Shut up!

- Captain Zhao, Singapore!

- G'Day.

- Shut up!

- G'Day.

A special acknowledgment to Commander

Stone Hopper, US Navy...

Stay calm. Knock em out.

who along with his outstanding crew and ship

had the highest overall rating last year.

Shades off Hopper!

- Commander.

- Thank you Admiral.

Welcome everybody,

it's really great to see you all here today.

Especially you gentlemen.

It's a true honor.

Me and my crew are gonna have to

be on our toes this year.

Because your ships look outstanding

and your men look ready.

So good luck out there!

Be safe! Keep chargin!

He loves his daughter. She loves you,

he's gonna respect that.

- Hey, Mike!

- Admiral!

You remember Sam?

It's an obsolete tradition.

Just asking for permission.

- Tell me that came from...

- Stop.

- Sam is a physical therapist.

- Stop worrying about this...

and walk up and do what you gotta do.

- Hello Hopper!

- Why are you here?

This is gonna be sweet!

- I was within the rules.

- Really?

Were you within the rules when

you kicked me in the face?

Isn't there some place more important

you need to be right now.

- He hates the man!

- Well that seems a bit juvenile, wouldn't you say?

You go mess with him and see what happens!

Why?

Would it be funny if i punched

you in the face? Would that be funny?

- Stop it!

- Chicken!

- Kentucky Fried Chicken!

- Yeap. I love it. Two piece...

- You look like Colonel Sanders actually.

- He was a handsom man.

- Good job out there Dad!

- What do you want?

Hopper needs 5 minutes of your time.

- That's enough!

- What do you mean that's enough?

Stop it! Isn't there something more

important you should be doing right now?

- Three minutes, tops.

- Thank you, I love you. Thank you daddy.

I love you too.

- He's gonna smash my face in.

- He's not gonna smash your face in.

Oh my god.

Sir it would be an honour...

Sir! sir! sir!

Give me your permission...

It would be an honor to have your permission...

Sir, give me your permission what's your deal?

It would be a thankful honor to have your permission...

to honor your hand...

What?

Oh my god

Sir,

May i please marry your daughter?

She's everything i have and i love her.

Talking to yourself Mr. Hopper?

Yea I was.

I was actually talking about you Nagata.

Sir, it was a fluke accident.

The bathroom floor was wet.

I began to fall, Cpt. Nagata

kindly reached out to help.

Our heads go bang!

We fall back. Bang again.

- Just like the great Jerry Lewis.

- Jerry Lewis?

- Did he just say Jerry Lewis?

- Yes, sir.

Are you kidding me?

"The bell boy"

and "The Nutty Professor".

- Very good movies.

- He's a great humanitarian, sir.

You both think this a joke then

you're very much mistaken.

This will not happen again.

Do i make myself clear?

- Yes, sir!

- Yes, sir!

Gentlemen.

Give me a minute with Mr Hopper.

What is wrong with you?

You've got skills, but i have never ever

seen a man waste them like you.

"Keep the ship out of the surf and spray.."

"... or we will plunge to desturction."

Homer, sir.

The fact that you know that

infuriates me beyond words.

What my daughter sees in you

is a great mystery to me.

You're a very smart individual

with very weak character, leadership

and decision making skills.

Do you have anything to say to me?

Anything?

Negative, sir.

Enjoy these naval exercises Hopper.

They're likely to be your last.

Dismissed.

- Is there anything i can do to help?

- Negative.

- If you wana talk about anything...

- I dont.

- If you change you mind and you do wanna talk about...

- I wont.

Roger that.

Contact Efron 1.

Commence anti-submarine warfare exercises.

Commence all operations.
