Judge Randolph:
[to Kaffee from the judge's bench]
Consider yourself in contempt!
Kaffee:
Colonel Jessup, did you order the Code Red?
Judge Randolph:
You don't have to answer that question!
Col. Jessup:
I'll answer the question!
[to Kaffee]
Col. Jessup:
You want answers?
Kaffee:
I think I'm entitled to.
Col. Jessep:
You want answers?
Kaffee:
I WANT THE TRUTH!
Col. Jessup:
YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH!
[pauses]
Col. Jessup:
Son, we live in a world that has walls, and those walls have to be guarded by men with guns. Who's gonna do it? You? You, Lt. Weinberg? I have a greater responsibility than you could possibly fathom. You weep for Santiago and you curse the Marines. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know; that Santiago's death, while tragic, probably saved lives. And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, *saves lives*. You don't want the truth because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that wall. You need me on that wall. We use words like honor, code, loyalty. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending something. You use them as a punchline. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it! I would rather you just said "thank you" and went on your way, Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a weapon and stand a post. Either way, I don't give a *damn* what you think you are entitled to!
Kaffee:
Did you order the code red?
Col. Jessup:
I did the job I...
Kaffee:
[interrupts him]
*Did you order the Code Red?*
Col. Jessup:
*You're God damn right I did!*

00:00:03.000 --> 00:00:05.867
- Damn it, Kaffee!
- Consider yourself in contempt.
00:00:05.936 --> 00:00:08.734
Colonel Jessup,
did you order the Code Red?
00:00:08.806 --> 00:00:12.367
- You don't have to answer that.
- I'll answer the question.
00:00:12.443 --> 00:00:14.468
- You want answers?
- I think I'm entitled!
00:00:14.545 --> 00:00:16.945
- You want answers?
- I want the truth!
00:00:17.999 --> 00:00:20.108
You can't handle the truth!
00:00:20.184 --> 00:00:22.175
Son, we live in a world that has walls...
00:00:22.253 --> 00:00:24.881
and those walls have to be guarded
by men with guns.
00:00:24.955 --> 00:00:29.324
Who's gonna do it? You?
You, Lieutenant Weinberg?
00:00:29.393 --> 00:00:33.386
I have a greater responsibility
than you can possibly fathom.
00:00:33.464 --> 00:00:36.922
You weep for Santiago,
and you curse the Marines.
00:00:37.767 --> 00:00:40.835
You have the luxury
of not knowing what I know...
00:00:40.905 --> 00:00:45.767
that Santiago's death,
while tragic, probably saved lives.
00:00:45.003 --> 00:00:50.098
And my existence, while grotesque and
incomprehensible to you, saves lives!
00:00:51.002 --> 00:00:55.178
You don't want the truth because
deep down you don't talk about...
00:00:55.252 --> 00:00:57.413
you want me on that wall.
00:00:57.488 --> 00:01:00.184
You need me on that wall!
00:01:00.257 --> 00:01:04.001
We use words like honor, code, loyalty.
00:01:04.995 --> 00:01:08.999
We use these words as the backbone
of a life spent defending something.
00:01:08.001 --> 00:01:10.001
You use them as a punch line.
00:01:10.999 --> 00:01:14.669
I have neither the time
nor the inclination to explain myself...
00:01:14.738 --> 00:01:18.902
to a man who rises and sleeps under
the blanket of the freedom I provide...
00:01:18.976 --> 00:01:21.843
and then questions the manner
in which I provide it!
00:01:21.001 --> 00:01:25.001
I would rather you just said thank you
and went on your way.
00:01:25.249 --> 00:01:29.001
Otherwise, I suggest you
pick up a weapon and stand a post.
00:01:29.999 --> 00:01:33.989
Either way, I don't give a damn
what you think you are entitled to!
00:01:34.007 --> 00:01:35.999
Did you order the Code Red?
00:01:35.001 --> 00:01:37.727
- I did the job...
- Did you order the Code Red?
00:01:37.795 --> 00:01:40.127
You're goddamned right I did!
00:01:51.175 --> 00:01:54.001
Please the court,
I suggest the members be dismissed...
00:01:54.345 --> 00:01:57.999
so that we can move to an
immediate Article 39-A session.
00:01:57.648 --> 00:02:00.994
The witness has rights.
00:02:00.001 --> 00:02:02.038
Captain Ross?
00:02:13.001 --> 00:02:16.999
The members of the court will retire
to an anteroom until further instructed.
00:02:17.048 --> 00:02:18.798
All rise.
00:02:20.006 --> 00:02:23.529
What the hell is this?
Colonel, what's going on?
00:02:23.607 --> 00:02:26.001
I did my job.
I'd do it again.
00:02:26.001 --> 00:02:29.999
I'm gonna get on a plane
and go on back to my base.
00:02:29.001 --> 00:02:33.001
You're not going anywhere, Colonel.
M.P.s, guard the colonel.
00:02:33.999 --> 00:02:34.001
Yes, sir.
00:02:36.654 --> 00:02:39.179
- Captain Ross.
- What the hell is this?
00:02:39.256 --> 00:02:42.001
Colonel Jessup, you have
the right to remain silent.
00:02:42.226 --> 00:02:46.999
I'm being charged with a crime?
Is that what this is?
00:02:46.001 --> 00:02:50.001
- I'm being charged with a crime?
- You have a right to consult a lawyer.
00:02:50.334 --> 00:02:54.001
- This is funny. That's what this is.
- This lawyer may be appointed by you.
00:02:54.238 --> 00:02:57.935
I'm gonna rip the eyes out of your head
and piss in your dead skull!
00:02:58.098 --> 00:02:59.001
You fucked with the wrong Marine!
00:03:00.909 --> 00:03:03.411
Colonel Jessup, do you understand
these rights as I have just read them?
00:03:09.999 --> 00:03:12.417
You fucking people.
00:03:12.489 --> 00:03:15.999
You have no idea how to defend a nation.
00:03:15.999 --> 00:03:18.762
All you did was weaken
a country today, Kaffee.
00:03:18.001 --> 00:03:20.999
That's all you did.
00:03:20.898 --> 00:03:25.995
You put people's lives in danger.
Sweet dreams, son.
00:03:26.993 --> 00:03:28.999
Don't call me son.
00:03:28.001 --> 00:03:32.999
I'm a lawyer and an officer
in the United States Navy...
00:03:32.081 --> 00:03:35.001
and you're under arrest,
you son of a bitch.
00:03:39.001 --> 00:03:41.851
The witness is excused.
00:04:03.999 --> 00:04:05.011
All rise.
00:04:16.553 --> 00:04:18.001
Have the members reached a verdict?
00:04:18.255 --> 00:04:20.002
We have, sir.
00:04:32.095 --> 00:04:35.998
