Irwin:
[Winter is trying to compromise with Irwin, while in his cell]
No. Not OK. It's too late, Colonel. Winter:
It's too late for what? Irwin:
For your offer. The men don't want to salute. They don't want to use rank. They don't want better food, They don't want more TV. They just want your resignation. And so do I. Winter:
My resignation? Irwin:
You're a disgrace, Colonel. A *disgrace* to the uniform! You should not be allowed to retain your command. Winter:
Well, then, I guess I'd better go pack. Irwin:
I think you should. Winter:
Tell me, Mr. Irwin, what's to stop me from just placing you in the HOLE, for say six months? Irwin:
Nothing. If that's the way you want to win

It's too late, Colonel.
00:00:03.000 --> 00:00:06.546
- It's too late for what?
- For your offer.
00:00:06.587 --> 00:00:08.059
The men don't want to salute.
00:00:08.631 --> 00:00:10.008
They don't want to use rank.
00:00:10.883 --> 00:00:12.885
They don't want better food.
They don't want more TV.
00:00:12.968 --> 00:00:15.763
They just want your resignation.
So do I.
00:00:17.515 --> 00:00:19.724
- My resignation?
- You're a disgrace, Colonel.
00:00:19.808 --> 00:00:21.893
A disgrace to the uniform.
00:00:21.936 --> 00:00:25.606
You should not be allowed
to retain your command.
00:00:29.275 --> 00:00:32.738
Well, then I'd better go pack.
00:00:32.822 --> 00:00:37.659
- I think you should.
- Oh?
00:00:37.743 --> 00:00:41.246
Tell me, Mr. Irwin,
what's to stop me from just...
00:00:41.329 --> 00:00:44.666
placing you in the hole...
for, say, six months?
00:00:44.749 --> 00:00:47.836
Nothing.
00:00:47.919 --> 00:00:49.837
If that's the way
you want to win.
00:00:55.426 --> 00:00:57.345
Sir, if I can make a suggestion,
00:00:57.429 --> 00:01:00.473
- maybe we should isolate prisoner
Irwin- - Get me General Wheeler.
00:01:02.976 --> 00:01:05.007
Yes, sir.
00:01:10.999 --> 00:01:15.989
Two weeks ago, I watched as he
marched a man up and down the yard.
00:01:16.993 --> 00:01:18.045
A minor eccentricity. Fine.
00:01:18.492 --> 00:01:20.953
Since then,
he's been acting as though...
00:01:20.994 --> 00:01:25.006
he still has a command
in some fantasy army.
00:01:25.123 --> 00:01:28.001
- And yesterday- - I don't
think you'd want to make general.
00:01:28.251 --> 00:01:31.003
Now, you wouldn't want to give up
all these perks, would you?
