Flight Of The Intruder Page #11

Synopsis: After his bombardier is killed, Jake "Cool Hand" Grafton (Brad Johnson)', a carrier-based Intruder pilot, questions the purpose of Navy bombing missions. He finds an ally for his cynicism in Virgil Cole, a bombardier on his third tour of duty, and together they ponder the notion of one unsanctioned mission "downtown", to "Sam City" in North Vietnam.

These I like, too.

1109

00:
55:08,796 -- 00:55:10,025

Now, wait a minute.

1110

00:
55:10,098 -- 00:55:12,259

You had time for this

and for evaluation?

1111

00:
55:12,402 -- 00:55:14,893

I got a lot

of responsibilities, man,

1112

00:
55:14,971 -- 00:55:16,063

you know?

1113

00:
55:16,172 -- 00:55:18,232

I'm a...

1114

00:
55:18,342 -- 00:55:19,468

I'm a patriarch.

1115

00:
55:20,778 -- 00:55:21,711

No, really.

1116

00:
55:21,780 -- 00:55:22,712

A patriarch.

1117

00:
55:22,781 -- 00:55:23,748

Yeah.

1118

00:
55:23,848 -- 00:55:25,406

Want to hear something?

1119

00:
55:25,483 -- 00:55:26,746

What do you got?

1120

00:
55:26,819 -- 00:55:28,286

Hold on.

1121

00:
55:31,992 -- 00:55:33,255

Wait till you hear this.

1122

00:
55:33,327 -- 00:55:34,418

It's something else.

1123

00:
55:34,494 -- 00:55:35,587

Listen to this.

1124

00:
55:35,663 -- 00:55:36,652

Ready?

1125

00:
55:36,731 -- 00:55:39,428

Yeah.

1126

00:
55:45,342 -- 00:55:46,775

You hear that?

1127

00:
55:46,877 -- 00:55:48,208

"Daddy."

1128

00:
55:48,279 -- 00:55:49,371

No, no, no.

1129

00:
55:49,448 -- 00:55:52,542

He said "daddy," man.

That's my son.

1130

00:
55:52,617 -- 00:55:54,483

That's my son.

It's beautiful, huh?

1131

00:
55:54,554 -- 00:55:56,021

That's your son?

1132

00:
55:56,089 -- 00:55:57,488

How'd you know?

1133

00:
55:57,557 -- 00:55:59,684

I don't know, and I don't

give a sh*t either.

1134

00:
56:00,894 -- 00:56:02,759

He can be my son

if he wants to be.

1135

00:
56:02,831 -- 00:56:03,923

Why not?

Sure he can. Yes.

1136

00:
56:03,997 -- 00:56:05,431

Right? I mean,

she wants him to be.

1137

00:
56:05,500 -- 00:56:06,592

So do l.

1138

00:
56:06,668 -- 00:56:08,261

I mean, that's what's

important, right?

1139

00:
56:08,370 -- 00:56:09,928

That's right,

that's what's important.

1140

00:
56:10,039 -- 00:56:11,597

Right. Right.

1141

00:
56:11,707 -- 00:56:12,800

What's she like?

1142

00:
56:12,909 -- 00:56:14,536

She's butt ugly.

1143

00:
56:14,611 -- 00:56:15,600

I mean, she's ugly,

1144

00:
56:15,679 -- 00:56:17,409

but she's got a great body, man.

1145

00:
56:17,482 -- 00:56:19,109

Well, you know...

1146

00:
56:19,184 -- 00:56:20,116

You know, Jake,

1147

00:
56:20,185 -- 00:56:21,709

I think I could love

an ugly woman.

1148

00:
56:21,787 -- 00:56:23,186

I mean, you can trust her more.

1149

00:
56:23,255 -- 00:56:24,188

The pretty ones...

1150

00:
56:24,257 -- 00:56:25,781

they only care about

themselves, right?

1151

00:
56:25,859 -- 00:56:26,918

Yeah.

1152

00:
56:26,994 -- 00:56:27,925

Right? I mean,

you know what I mean.

1153

00:
56:27,994 -- 00:56:28,927

Yeah, sure.

1154

00:
56:28,996 -- 00:56:30,896

That's nice.

1155

00:
56:32,399 -- 00:56:33,094

Yeah?

1156

00:
56:33,201 -- 00:56:34,190

Yeah.

1157

00:
56:34,302 -- 00:56:35,998

Thanks a lot, Jake.

1158

00:
56:36,105 -- 00:56:38,039

Yeah. Thanks a lot, man.

1159

00:
56:38,107 -- 00:56:39,039

All right.

1160

00:
56:39,108 -- 00:56:40,133

I'll see you around.

1161

00:
56:40,244 -- 00:56:42,007

All right.

1162

00:
56:56,898 -- 00:56:58,126

Mr. Grafton.

1163

00:
57:04,473 -- 00:57:05,964

You wouldn't happen

to have anything

1164

00:
57:06,075 -- 00:57:07,133

on North Vietnam, would you?

1165

00:
57:07,210 -- 00:57:08,576

Like what?

1166

00:
57:08,646 -- 00:57:10,546

Oh, I don't know.

1167

00:
57:10,614 -- 00:57:13,879

Anything with...

maybe some maps?

1168

00:
57:17,857 -- 00:57:19,324

Try this Geographic.

1169

00:
57:19,458 -- 00:57:21,119

The map's in the back.

1170

00:
57:21,194 -- 00:57:22,127

Keep it quiet.

1171

00:
57:22,196 -- 00:57:24,563

It's not supposed to circulate.

1172

00:
57:24,632 -- 00:57:26,998

All right. Thanks.

1173

00:
57:39,149 -- 00:57:41,414

You want to bomb Hanoi.

1174

00:
57:44,456 -- 00:57:46,720

You realize I could have you

court-martialed

1175

00:
57:46,792 -- 00:57:48,454

for even making the suggestion.

1176

00:
57:48,528 -- 00:57:49,860

That's right.

1177

00:
57:49,930 -- 00:57:51,329

You took a big risk.

1178

00:
57:51,432 -- 00:57:52,160

Yes, I did.

1179

00:
57:55,536 -- 00:57:56,765

Why do you want to do this?

1180

00:
57:56,838 -- 00:57:58,704

I think you know why.

1181

00:
57:58,774 -- 00:58:02,211

There's guys like Morgan...

1182

00:
58:02,279 -- 00:58:07,012

they're dying every day,

every single day.

1183

00:
58:07,084 -- 00:58:08,074

This war...

1184

00:
58:08,186 -- 00:58:10,313

This war's not going to end.

1185

00:
58:10,421 -- 00:58:11,786

You think it would matter?

1186

00:
58:11,856 -- 00:58:13,051

One plane?

1187

00:
58:13,125 -- 00:58:14,353

Yes, I do.

1188

00:
58:14,426 -- 00:58:15,587

It would matter to me.

1189

00:
58:15,662 -- 00:58:17,254

I think it would matter to Morg.

1190

00:
58:17,397 -- 00:58:20,526

It'd matter to all the other

guys that had gotten bagged.

1191

00:
58:20,601 -- 00:58:23,195

It would matter to you,

and you know it.

1192

00:
58:23,271 -- 00:58:25,035

So, you think putting

a couple of snake eyes

1193

00:
58:25,107 -- 00:58:27,099

in the middle of party

headquarters is the answer?

1194

00:
58:27,176 -- 00:58:28,700

Well, I don't know

if it's the answer,

1195

00:
58:28,778 -- 00:58:30,041

but I'll tell you what.

1196

00:
58:30,114 -- 00:58:31,979

It's going to get their

attention, isn't it?

1197

00:
58:32,049 -- 00:58:34,882

You'd be going

right downtown.

1198

00:
58:34,985 -- 00:58:37,249

It'd be no piece of cake.

1199

00:
58:37,322 -- 00:58:38,950

Yeah, but it would be worth it.

1200

00:
58:39,025 -- 00:58:41,892

And this time it's not going

to be a bunch of trees.

1201

00:
58:41,961 -- 00:58:43,930

It's not going to be

a road junction.

1202

00:
58:43,997 -- 00:58:46,397

It's going to be a

mission, a real mission.

1203

00:
58:47,802 -- 00:58:50,829

You think it would change

anything at the peace table?

1204

00:
58:52,875 -- 00:58:53,807

I don't know.

1205

00:
58:53,876 -- 00:58:54,843

It might.

1206

00:
58:56,913 -- 00:58:58,346

No dice.

1207

00:
58:58,448 -- 00:59:00,007

I've been in this war

too long

1208

00:
59:00,117 -- 00:59:02,210

to listen to this

idealistic bullshit.

1209

00:
59:02,320 -- 00:59:03,082

Ah...

1210

00:
59:03,154 -- 00:59:04,213

Let me tell you, friend,

1211

00:
59:04,323 -- 00:59:06,416

there's nothing up there

worth dying for.

1212

00:
59:06,491 -- 00:59:08,425

No, let me tell you something.

1213

00:
59:08,493 -- 00:59:10,621

You risk your life.

1214

00:
59:10,697 -- 00:59:13,633

You risk your life every

mission, every stinking mission.

1215

00:
59:13,701 -- 00:59:15,566

I do my job.

1216

00:
59:15,636 -- 00:59:19,073

I do my job.

1217

00:
59:27,517 -- 00:59:29,782

Don't worry.

1218

00:
59:29,854 -- 00:59:34,292

I'm going to forget

we even talked about this.

1219

00:
59:39,466 -- 00:59:39,795

Dear Callie,

1220

00:
59:42,803 -- 00:59:45,601

Last night, l...

I talked to my new bombardier
