Dear John Page #10

888

00:
53:40,230 -- 00:53:42,755

Well, cheers, son.

Glad you could join us.

889

00:
53:42,933 -- 00:53:44,093

Thank you, sir.

890

00:
53:44,268 -- 00:53:48,295

Billy! You actually showed up!

See, hard part's over.

891

00:
53:48,872 -- 00:53:49,896

Whoa.

892

00:
53:50,073 -- 00:53:53,042

Good to see you again, John.

How you doing, Tim?

893

00:
53:53,210 -- 00:53:55,735

Hi. Hey, Tim,

how are you doing?

894

00:
53:55,913 -- 00:53:57,437

Good.

Good. l haven't seen your wife.

895

00:
53:57,614 -- 00:53:58,740

ls she here?

896

00:
53:58,916 -- 00:54:01,578

TlM:

Yeah, she's on vacation actually.

897

00:
54:01,752 -- 00:54:04,312

So l'll tell her you said hello.

WOMAN:
Please do.

898

00:
54:04,488 -- 00:54:05,978

l will.

899

00:
54:06,924 -- 00:54:10,587

Alan, remember

what we talked about?

900

00:
54:12,329 -- 00:54:14,092

JOHN:

Another vacation?

901

00:
54:14,865 -- 00:54:16,389

Yeah.

902

00:
54:18,802 -- 00:54:20,827

Alan ever ask

about her?

903

00:
54:22,239 -- 00:54:25,640

Yeah, he does.

l just don't know

what to say.

904

00:
54:25,809 -- 00:54:29,802

Hey, look, l'm not a father.

905

00:
54:29,980 -- 00:54:31,345

So...

906

00:
54:31,515 -- 00:54:34,643

You know, l'm really in no position

to give you advice at all.

907

00:
54:36,286 -- 00:54:38,379

When l was a kid,

l waited around every day

908

00:
54:38,555 -- 00:54:40,750

hoping that today

would finally be the day

909

00:
54:40,924 -- 00:54:42,755

that my mom

would come home.

910

00:
54:44,895 -- 00:54:47,056

l waited around 1 5 years.

911

00:
54:47,230 -- 00:54:50,927

So l know how painful

it might have been for

my dad to

912

00:
54:51,435 -- 00:54:53,335

just tell me the truth.

913

00:
54:55,038 -- 00:54:57,404

But it would have saved me

a lot of waiting around.

914

00:
54:57,574 -- 00:54:59,098

You know?

915

00:
55:01,778 -- 00:55:05,179

Well, l guess if the worst thing

you can say about your father

916

00:
55:05,349 -- 00:55:08,546

is he tried to protect you

too much...

917

00:
55:09,620 -- 00:55:12,088

then that's a pretty good

father, isn't it?

918

00:
55:12,656 -- 00:55:14,954

l'm sorry.

You're John, right?

919

00:
55:15,125 -- 00:55:16,820

Savannah's John?

Yes, sir.

920

00:
55:16,994 -- 00:55:18,791

l wanna thank you

for what you're doing.

921

00:
55:18,962 -- 00:55:21,590

Know that our prayers are with you.

l just hope that whatever happens,

922

00:
55:21,765 -- 00:55:24,859

it'll be over soon. So you boys

can come home safe and sound.

923

00:
55:25,035 -- 00:55:27,265

MR. CURTlS:

Oh, it won't be over anytime soon.

924

00:
55:27,437 -- 00:55:30,235

Afghanistan will just be

the first stop of many.

925

00:
55:30,407 -- 00:55:31,431

He's right, you know.

926

00:
55:31,608 -- 00:55:34,338

Pretty soon they're

gonna be asking y'all to

reenlist for another tour.

927

00:
55:34,511 -- 00:55:37,344

Slowly but surely they'll

stop asking and start telling.

928

00:
55:37,514 -- 00:55:39,778

None of the soldiers l know

need to be asked, sir.

929

00:
55:39,950 -- 00:55:42,418

And we sure

don't need to be told.

930

00:
55:42,586 -- 00:55:44,349

What do you mean by we?

934

00:
56:04,741 -- 00:56:07,209

So you're gonna reenlist,

just like that?

935

00:
56:09,880 -- 00:56:12,075

lt's something

we should talk about.

936

00:
56:12,916 -- 00:56:15,043

Two more years, John.

937

00:
56:21,858 -- 00:56:22,882

Have you already done it?

938

00:
56:23,060 -- 00:56:24,652

Have you already

re-upped?

939

00:
56:26,163 -- 00:56:27,790

No.

940

00:
56:27,964 -- 00:56:30,558

But you decided

that you're going to?

941

00:
56:34,071 -- 00:56:36,039

Do l have a say?

942

00:
56:36,206 -- 00:56:37,867

Do l have a say in this?

943

00:
56:38,942 -- 00:56:42,105

You don't understand.

Don't ever tell me l don't understand.

944

00:
57:04,000 -- 00:57:05,900

Leave me alone,

John.

945

00:
57:10,741 -- 00:57:12,140

Please.

946

00:
57:14,478 -- 00:57:15,911

What do you...?

947

00:
57:17,314 -- 00:57:19,077

What do you want from me?

948

00:
57:19,249 -- 00:57:21,479

Savannah, l mean...

949

00:
57:23,053 -- 00:57:27,046

Just tell me what you want

from me. Because-- l mean,

you want me to quit?

950

00:
57:27,224 -- 00:57:28,782

ls that it?

951

00:
57:29,760 -- 00:57:31,284

Look, l don't know

how we got here.

952

00:
57:31,461 -- 00:57:33,258

l don't know

what happened.

953

00:
57:34,197 -- 00:57:36,597

Just woke up

954

00:
57:36,767 -- 00:57:39,201

and there's buildings

falling and...

955

00:
57:39,369 -- 00:57:42,930

l mean, l had a plan--

l had a plan, but now l don't.

956

00:
57:43,106 -- 00:57:45,836

And l have no idea

what to do.

957

00:
57:46,476 -- 00:57:49,843

l don't know what to do

and l just-- All l know is

l wanna stay here.

958

00:
57:50,013 -- 00:57:53,244

l just wanna stay right

here with you as long

as l possibly can.

You're just all that matters, okay?

You're all that matters to me.

960

00:
57:56,820 -- 00:57:59,948

l'm trying to figure out what

the right thing is to do and

l don't know what that is.

961

00:
58:00,123 -- 00:58:04,253

l don't have any fricking idea

how to get there. l just--

Because l need you to tell me.

962

00:
58:04,427 -- 00:58:07,089

l just need you to tell me, okay?

963

00:
58:07,264 -- 00:58:11,166

Can you just tell me, please--?

Just tell me what you want me to do.

to come with me.
