Here's what happens. Before we can cuff

him, he goes for this weapon,

we shoot this prick and steal his sh*t.

What the f***? Terrence...

I thought we had our thing going.

And you're wrong, baby.

He acts like he likes you,

So I'm proud to include Lt. Terrence

McDonagh among those being promoted...

with our sparkling water.

I would like to make a toast.

- Aw... That's okay.

To my new family.

- God Bless!

- Hear, hear...

when I get closer to the D-Day?

I'll make sure I'm not. How's that.

But I like having you home at night.

I like it better that way too.
