So, um... your boy, Ray, he split.
He said he was hitting up Big Bear
or something.
He's gone?
Yeah.
Whatever.
I wasn't with him anyway.
You was already behind,
so I had to padlock you.
I'm sorry. It's just that I got people
'Course, we might could
work something out.
I don't know.
Didn't go to the casino last night?
I told you, I'm done with that place.
Little early for a beer then.
I have been working all night.
It's not the same thing.
- Does it relax you?
- Yes.
Then it's the same thing.
Why don't you give this section a whirl?
Jesus Christ, Rose,
how many times have we been...
Do you think I like
sitting around here all day?
They told me I can't work
or we're gonna lose that settlement.
Somebody takes a picture of me
doing something physical,
we lose the lawsuit.
Well, you at least ought to try
and sell the truck then.
It's been almost a year already.
- Speaking of settlements...
- Nope. Forget it.
That is his.
He's the one that suffered, not you.
- Short-term loan.
- No.
Jerry says they're gonna settle any day.
We'd give him the money right back.
No.
You never should've taught him
how to use eBay.
Ned, I'm in the truck
if you want a ride to work.
...was the greatest failure
by the United States
in the war against Al-Qaeda.
The latest video of Osama Bin Laden
surfaced today
with the Al-Qaeda leader claiming
his organization is alive and well,
and will continue to target Americans
both abroad and on their own soil.
Quote, "We must eliminate the cross.
The bearer of the cross is America.
We will blow you up
and finish you off," end quote.
According to the Washington Post,
the US...
I miss it more than I can say, brother.
I'm dying a slow death out here.
Hey, man, I hear you,
but it's worth it.
We're gonna win this thing.
Listen, I gotta split.
I'll keep you posted on the lawsuit.
Say hi to Brains for me, okay?
- Ten-four.
- Roger that.
Hey, welcome back, Ned.
America is the bearer of the cross.
I know it.
Al-Qaeda is alive and well, Bob.
They have to let me help.
You ought to take Paul Delgado's place.
His mom's always going on about
how he wants to come home
from Afghanistan.
Who wants to come home
from Afghanistan?
Paul Delgado.
Two houses down.
You walk his dog, Ned.
Waffles.
about this big.
Waffles.
Spell Delgado for me.
We'll see, yeah. Delgado.
Here you go.
- Thank you, Bob.
- No problem.
That might not have been a good idea.
Hi, Ned.
I'd like to talk about your son,
Paul Delgado?
I'd also like a picture of him, please.
Hello, Waffles.
You know, all these years,
we've never really been anywhere.
- Lake Hav...
- Don't say Lake Havasu.
Well, when you spend your life
on the road,
you know, the last thing
you wanna do with your downtime is travel.
I have lived here my entire life.
I never thought that would happen.
I wouldn't worry about it.
I mean, travel's overrated.
One place,
pretty much the same as another.
Yeah. That doesn't sound right.
Where's my shake?
Al-Qaeda.
Thank you, Bob.
I'll get it for you, honey.
You got a good sweat going there.
It's hot.
Ned Chipley to see
Master Sergeant Foutz, ma'am.
I... I told you, Master Sergeant Foutz
was reassigned to a different office.
- Staff Sergeant Kendrick?
- He's not here today.
- He's unavailable right now.
I am not sure when his schedule
is gonna open up.
That's okay. I'm off work today.
Oh. Okay.
Why don't you take a seat, Ned?
Thank you, ma'am.
Do you need some food
or water or something?
I need very little food or water.
I have field readiness.
That's good.
Do you know Paul Delgado, ma'am?
No, I don't think so.
This is Paul Delgado.
He's a Marine and he would like
to come home right now.
I'm gonna take his place.
Right now, I just walk his dog.
Waffles.
I don't have a picture of the dog,
but it's white and fluffy
and about this big.
Or... well, actually it's about...
Sir?
No, I know what you said.
I'm sorry, sir. Yes, I'm just...
I just thought you should know
that Ned Chipley is here again.
What?
He's saying that he'd like to...
Is that Master Sergeant Jenkins?
That he'd like to take the place of...
Paul Delgado.
Paul Delgado.
Tell him about the dog.
And he has a dog.
- Named...
- Named Waffles.
Thank you.
Master Sergeant Jenkins
will see you now.
Thank you, ma'am.
What's this all about, son?
Al-Qaeda is alive and well, sir.
Okay. What's this about, specifically?
Paul Delgado would like to come home.
And I'll take his place.
That's...
That's not how it works, Ned.
You just can't take someone's place.
A military outfit is about cohesion.
It's about uniformity, it's...
Stop writing and listen to me.
- Ned...
- What is that?
Can I have this, sir?
Ned... why do you wanna
join the Marines?
And don't quote the brochure,
just tell me in your own words.
I hate terrorists, sir.
And I want to save lives.
- Save lives?
- Yes, sir.
Shut the door.
Let me tell you something.
Have a seat.
I'll give you the poster already.
There's an old saying.
Here, give me one of those cards,
I'll write it down for you.
It says...
"An immature man
wants to die nobly for a cause,
but a mature man
wants to live humbly for one."
What that means, Ned,
is we're in danger at home.
We need good people
I mean, sure,
everybody wants to put on
a uniform and be a hero,
but... the real heroes
are the ones looking after
their fellow citizens
here on the home front.
The home front.
Didn't you say Al-Qaeda
was alive and well?
Yes, sir.
Then there's bound to be sleeper cells
everywhere.
Right under our noses, even.
Chances are, they're gonna keep
attacking us where we live,
at the malls, at the supermarkets.
We need good people
looking after things here.
Special Operatives, if you will.
You want me to be a Special Operative?
Absolutely.
- So I'll be a Marine? - Uh... - A Special Operative.
No. Don't tell people
you're a Marine, Ned.
You don't wanna compromise
yourself or this office.
Can I have a gun, sir?
Weapons draw
the wrong kind of attention.
What can I have then,
besides that poster?
Okay.
Be very careful with these, Ned.
On them are the 52 biggest
terrorist threats in the world.
Saddam is the Ace of spades?
Those are the men you're looking for
and anyone associated with them.
And what I need you to do, Ned,
is be vigilant.
Can you do that for me?
Be vigilant?
Vigilant? Absolutely, sir.
What is my unit's nickname?
- Am I Devil Dog?
- No.
You're a...
You know what a Sun Dog is, Ned?
Wait, hold on, look. Let me show you.
You see the sun in the middle here?
Mm-hm.
Picture that as, say, the...
the Marines in Iraq and Afghanistan.
And these...
those are Sun Dogs.
They're just as important,
off to the side of the sun,
