Is that what you think we lack here? If i didn't, i wouldn't bring it. What's the question on your mind, son? Molly: your uncle's speaking to you, darryl. What's the question on your mind? How's my wife? She's gonna be fine if-- She'll be fine when i'm done with him. Here you go, daddy. Mmm. How's your grandfather? Oh, he's asleep by the fire. And your grandmother? Oh, she went to bed. Son, Today is the proudest day of my life. The army, 50 years later, Awarded to my father a silver star. I want to ask you a question. What took them so long? Well, you know, it's a... Two-Part answer. I'll be downstairs. One... The army don't like to give out that tin To enlisted men. Oh... Officers will decorate each other Like it's halloween. They'll give themselves a silver star For knowing the day of the week. But enlisted men, You gotta do something-- As your grandfather did-- To make them gape with awe. And, two... What took them so long Is the army of that day Did not admire to decorate a black man. And i do not want to hear your tale of woe Because you do not know what that man came back to. My father had been back for some years... And president truman-- As you remember-- Integrated the armed services. Now, why did he do that? Because the combat vets, the black combat vets Were leaving the jim crow army And the government just lost its n.C.O. Corps. [Brake hisses] Jonas, narrating: so... We were in transit-- Fort riley. Mama had gone down to mississippi, And my dad took me down so we could meet her. Now, this was a pretty special trip. And there i was-- Just me and my hero. We had a 10-Minute rest stop, And i had been for the last leg of the trip Calling out for a nice cold soda. Boy: can i get a coke, dad? You want a cola? Jonas, narrating: but my father was legitimately reluctant To let me into that all-White restaurant. [Upbeat tune playing] Excuse me, miss. Sure. Oh, no, no. Hey! All right, now, he's just a young boy. You got no quarrel with him. All right, son, you stay right here. It's gonna be all right, right? N: what are you doing Talking to that woman, boy? George: i got no quarrel with you, And you got no quarrel with me. First off, you want to talk to me, You call me sir. And next, what the hell you doing Got up in that costume? It's called a uniform. Not in the c.I.B., it ain't. Are you telling me you saw some action? That's right. They let the niggers fight? They let me fight. What do you think you're doing Talking to that woman? I asked her to buy a soda For my son. Where you from, boy? Mister. Can i tell you something? You're frightened. I've seen some action. Maybe you have, too, And i know what fear looks like. And you're scared to death. And i'm gonna tell you why... You're frightened, And i'm gonna tell you why. He spoke back to them. He spoke up to them. What did he say? Are you worthy to hear it? Because that is a question, darryl, I ask myself at those times When i am frhtened. Am i worthy? As that man, whatever he felt, He showed no fear to two armed men Who wanted to lynch him in front of his son. And he knew, of course, That had they killed him, They would have killed me, too. George: am i afraid to die? I can't tell you. But i can tell you this: I'd rather die Than spend the rest of my life knowing That i killed a man and his young son For nothing. For nothing. Now, listen to me. Come on. Let's go. [Engine starts] You ok? All right. Come on. Man on radio: what your status, peregrine 5? He's making a starboard turn. Roger, going starboard. You still there, jimmy? I hear you. I, uh... You got that autopilot on? Yeah, i do. Listen, jimmy, listen. Listening. Do you believe in judgment? I believe in good judgment. In fact, that's one of the rules By which i try to rule my life. Do you believe in the judgment of heaven? Well, i tell you what, Let's--Let's leave that for another day. Now, bill, we've got you In what us pilots call a race track pattern, And i want to compliment you On the way you've put that information to use. You know, jim, You can save it. I've been manipulating men My whole life. You don't want to con a coartist. Well, i ain't trying to con you, bill, I'm just trying to get you down in one piece. Yeah, well, you ain't the only one Trying to bring me down. What do you mean? I mean mother nature's got it in for me, too. I'm icing up. I think this plane's about ready To fall out of the sky. [Beeping] Man over radio: interceptor, you can return to base now. Copy that. Peregrine 5, r.T.B. The plane's falling! Willow?! Willow?! The ice! Delta tango, this is willow field. Partch: i'm icing up! Pull up the bar on the left-Hand side. I know you are, and i'm gonna cure it. Reach down on the console by your left hand, You're gonna see a little yellow bar. Pull that bar up now. The plane's out of con. Get the nose down. Get your nose down. Keep your nose down. A little push forward on the yoke. We got him on autopilot. Why'd the f-15 leave off? William partch. Mm-Hmm. You know, my calculations, He's got about a half an hour of-- You want me to talk this guy down? Look, thguy is drunk. He's scared out of his mind. I say we keep him circling a few more minutes. Let the adrenaline burn off. And he says he's a ranger? So he says. Yeah, you know what i like about this situation? You tell me. Nothing. You think he's a tango? No, i think he's not, Or else they would have shot him down When he clipped indianapolis. So, who the hell is that guy up there? Sounds like a guy that wants to die. Ranger wants to die. Wouldn't he eat the gun? Shame, son... Is a gateway to grace. Shame the gateway to grace. You've got two people to apologize to. Think a minute about who they are. You didn't have much of a party, did you? That's how it goes. Taxi will be here in 30 minutes. You get any sleep? Got a wink or two. Teesha, right? That's right. My name is jonas. I'm your uncle. I've got two questions for you About your husband. All right. And i want you to tell me the truth, Because whatever the truth... We're gonna take care of you. Do you love your husband? Yes. Now, tell me the truth as you know. Does he love you? Yes. He loves you? Yes. All right. You fix this up. Now, look... Somebody told him He's got the right to be angry Coming home from combat, But we had a little talk. And i've explained several things to him, And i believe he understands. Now, you look to me to be a treasure of a wife. And he's gonna treat you with respect. Should he not... Molly? Tell her what she's gonna do. You will leave him. Jonas: should he strike you... Molly: you will call the police. Right now. Now, on that basis, Will you take him ck? Mack: bill? Bill? Yeah. Hey, jimmy. Now, we're gonna land this plane here, ranger. You check out on this plane?

Why would anyone want to kill you? I don't know. Why would they want to kill the pilot? They killed the pilot? Who, bill? How'd the pilot die? Bill, how did the pilot die? That's a good question. It sure as hell wasn't nural causes. Fellow doesn't sound like a ranger. 'Cause he ain't a ranger. Why, because he couldn't remember The color of the commandant's wife's hair? Sarah: centracom/z. It's registered to a company called centracom/z. That's fine. But centracom/z doesn't exist. It's an accommodation address For a holding company registered in lichtenstein.
