Please the court,
I suggest the members be dismissed...
00:00:02.697 --> 00:00:05.928
so that we can move to an
immediate Article 39-A session.
00:00:06.000 --> 00:00:08.434
The witness has rights.
00:00:08.502 --> 00:00:10.732
Captain Ross?
00:00:21.616 --> 00:00:25.279
The members of the court will retire
to an anteroom until further instructed.
00:00:25.353 --> 00:00:27.015
All rise.
00:00:28.389 --> 00:00:31.881
What the hell is this?
Colonel, what's going on?
00:00:31.959 --> 00:00:34.484
I did my job.
I'd do it again.
00:00:34.562 --> 00:00:37.069
I'm gonna get on a plane
and go on back to my base.
00:00:37.765 --> 00:00:41.462
You're not going anywhere, Colonel.
M.P.s, guard the colonel.
00:00:41.535 --> 00:00:42.968
Yes, sir.
00:00:45.002 --> 00:00:47.531
- Captain Ross.
- What the hell is this?
00:00:47.608 --> 00:00:50.509
Colonel Jessup, you have
the right to remain silent.
00:00:50.578 --> 00:00:55.208
I'm being charged with a crime?
Is that what this is?
00:00:55.283 --> 00:00:58.616
- I'm being charged with a crime?
- You have a right to consult a lawyer.
00:00:58.686 --> 00:01:02.052
- This is funny. That's what this is.
- This lawyer may be appointed by you.
00:01:02.059 --> 00:01:06.001
I'm gonna rip the eyes out of your head
and piss in your dead skull!
00:01:06.036 --> 00:01:08.294
You fucked with the wrong Marine!
00:01:08.999 --> 00:01:11.001
Colonel Jessup, do you understand
these rights as I have just read them?
00:01:18.955 --> 00:01:20.001
You fucking people.
00:01:20.999 --> 00:01:23.605
You have no idea how to defend a nation.
