[In the film edited for TV on NBC dubbed in the Modified Version. Judge Randolph dismisses the jury after Jessup's revelation on the stand about the Code Red] Col. Jessup:
What the hell is this? Colonel, what's going on? I did my job. I'd do it again. I'm gonna get on a plane and go on back to my base. Judge Randolph:
You're not going anywhere, Colonel. MP's, guard the Colonel. M.P.:
Yes, sir. [MP's take to the post. And Col. Jessup find out what's going on] Judge Randolph:
Captain Ross. Col. Jessup:
What the hell is these? Capt. Ross:
Colonel Jessup, you have the right to remain silent; Any statement you make may be used against you in a trial by court-martial or in other judicial or administrative proceedings. You have the right to consult with a lawyer prior any further questions. This lawyer may be a civilian lawyer retained by you at your own expense... Col. Jessup:
I'm being charged with a crime? Is that what this is? I'm being charged with a crime? This is funny. That's what this is... [Turning to Kaffee and lunging at him. But the MP's restrain Colonel Jessup] Col. Jessup:
... I'm gonna rip the eyes out of your head and puke into your dead skull, you messed with the wrong marine! Capt. Ross:
Colonel Jessup, do you understand these rights as I have just read them to you? Col. Jessup:
You friggin' people. You have no idea how to defend the nation. All you did was weaken a country today, Kaffee. That's all you did. You put people's lives in danger. Sweet dreams, son, Kaffee:
Don't call me son. I'm a lawyer, and an officer in the United States Navy, and you're under arrest, you son of a bitch. [Glares at Jessup] Kaffee:
The witness is excused. [Colonel Jessup calms down, taking a deep breath to cool off, bend down and grab his hat on the floor, and MP's taken Colonel Jessup away into custody]
