It Helps The Planes

Get Up Enough Speed

To Get Airborne.

Ahh! This Is So Cool!

P.A.:
Wow, That Sure Was

Exciting, Wasn't It?

I Tell You What,

It Takes Nerves Of Steel

For These Men And Women...

Oh, Look! There's Grace!

P.A.:
...On And Off

Of This Aircraft Carrier.

Did You See Her?

Tina, Just

Get The Shot.

We Gotta Go.

Hold On.

This Is So Cool!

Tina, Don't Push It.

I'm Serious!

Tina:
Hold On.

[Laughs]

We're Busted!

Let's Go!

Come On!

We Gotta Go!

Come On, Tina!

I'm Serious.

Come On!

Tina, Come On!

Yes, Sir!

Here. In Here.

Hey, Stop!

[Laughing]

Not Very Smart.

What You Did...

Was In Direct Violation

Of Regulations.

If You Were Members

Of This Crew,

You Could Be Brought Up

On Charges.

Consider This A Warning.

The Least Bit Of Trouble

Out Of Any One Of You,

And You'll Be Confined

To Your Quarters

For The Rest Of This Voyage.

Are We Clear On That?

Yes, Sir.

Yes, Sir.

Yeah.

Ahem.

Yes, Sir.

All Right, Go On.

I Want To Talk

To Your Families.

I Think That

Ought To Do It.

Don't Be Too Rough

On 'Em.

Go Ahead.

Yell, And Just

Get It Over With.

What, So You Could Say

I Was Never There,

And Therefore

I Have No Right

To Discipline You?

We've Gone

Through That Before.

Was This Whole Thing

Some Way To Get My Attention?

No.

Well, It Did.

I'm Worried

About You, Maddie.

This Isn't Like You.

7 Weeks Ago,

We Lost A Pilot...

On A Practice Maneuver.

It Was A Nice Sunny Day,

Just Like Today.

Something Happened--

A Problem With The Landing--

And We Lost Him.

That's Why Everybody's

So Serious Out There.

It's Dangerous.

And For You

To Disobey Me, I--

[Sighs]

I Don't Understand

What You're Going Through.

I Try,

But I'll Tell You This.

You've Gotta Start Thinking

About Your Actions.

The World Doesn't Revolve

Around You.

Everybody Has To Learn That

At A Certain Point.

Hey, When Are

You Gonna Start Thinking

About Somebody Else, Huh?

I Mean, I'm Trying

To Make Something

Out Of Myself,

And Stupid Stuff Like This

Does Not Help.

Man, I Didn't Mean--

Just Shut Up And Listen! Ok?

This Was A Mistake

Having You Come

On This Thing.

It Wasn't Pop's Idea.

It Was Mine.

You Know, I Was Hoping--

I Don't Know

What I Was Hoping.

But We Got Enough

To Do Right Now

Where I Can't Have You

Running Around,

Getting In

Any More Trouble.

So That Means

For The Next Few Days,

You Behave Yourself.

You Understand Me?

When You Get Home,

You Can Run Off

With Your Idiot Friends

And Do Whatever You Want.

At This Point,

I Really Don't Care.

But Until Then,

You Watch Yourself.

Understand?

P.A.:
Welcome To

The Tiger Cruise

2001 Talent Show.

[Dance Music Playing]

Whoo!

Let's Get Up!

Come On, Come On, Whoo

Yeah!

Yeah!

Unh

Look, Trouble's

Like My Middle Name.

I'm Used To People

Yelling At Me,

But I'm Sorry

I Got You Guys

Into This.

It's Not Your Fault.

I Was The One

Who Wanted To Do It.

My Sister Just Glares

When She's Mad,

But It Can Kill,

You Know?

What About Your Dad?

He Must've Been

Pretty Hot.

No, He Wasn't.

He Was...

Quiet. I Don't Know.

Real Different.

Kinda Wish He Had Yelled.

Sometimes Parents

Just Do Stuff Like That

To Freak Us Out.

Hey, Joey, You Want

Some More Ice Cream?

I Don't Think So.

[Joey Groans]

Whoo

Whoo

Come On, Come On

We Had That Made

For Him Last Year.

Nice.

We Spent The Millennium

In A Cheap Hotel

'Cause Our New House

Wasn't Ready Yet.

Lots Of Fun.

Commander Dolan Told Me

About What Happened Today.

Still Mad?

I Think "Disappointed"

Is A Better Word.

He Was Really

Looking Forward

To You Going

On This Cruise.

Really?

It's All He Talked About.

I Don't Know What It Is

You Think Your Dad's Doing...

But It's Not

A Pleasure Cruise

Out Here.

Sometimes It's Lonely,

Sometimes It's Dangerous,

But Your Dad...

He Makes It Easier On Us.

You Know, A Lot

Of These Guys Out Here

Are Younger Than Me.

I Mean,

They're Teenagers,

But We Can Talk To Him.

He's Like--He's Like

A Father Sometimes.

Must Be Nice.

Well...

Hey.

Hi.

I'm Sorry About

What Happened Today.

Sure.

But That's

Behind Us Now.

There's A Lot

To Think About.

Couple Of The Things

You Said Have A--

Have An Element

Of Truth To 'Em.

We Are Strangers.

Today's Little Incident

Kind Of Underlined That

For Me.

Dad, I Was Just--

Hear Me Out, All Right?

See, I Never Knew

How Unhappy You Were.

But You're Right.

I Missed A Lot

Of Your Life--

The Good, The Bad,

All The Moves,

The Schools.

If I Could Go Back

And Catch Up

On Everything That

I've Missed, I Would,

But I Can't.

As Captain Select,

I'm In Line

For Assignment

To Command

My Own Ship.

That's What I Worked

My Whole Life For.

You're Asking Me

To Give It Up.

Maddie...

I Don't Know

If You Know This.

Our Family Means

The Whole World To Me.

Holding It Together...

I'd Be Willing

To Give Myself

A New Direction.

I Talked To Your Mom

For A Long Time

Last Night, And...

I Decided

I'm Not Gonna Reup.

I'm Coming Home...

For Good.

Dad, Are You Serious?

Yeah.

I'm Serious.

Yes! Yes! Yes!

Thank You. Thank You.

Oh, This Is So Great!

Are You Sure?

Yes, I'm Sure.

Thank You. Thank You.

Woman:

Any Squawks

That Are Unassigned,

I Want To Be Notified.

Yes, Sir.

All Right, Hey, Hey,

Mode 4s Are Challenged.

Got That, Everybody?

Mode 4s Are Challenged.

Sir. Sir.

There's A Second One.

Prepare A Statement
