Key Discussion Points and Narrative Threads

1. Leshinsky’s Ordeal and Patterson’s Philosophy

Cadet Steven Leshinsky faces the institutional rituals of the academy—discipline, hazing, and homesickness.

• The Barber Scene: Leshinsky’s request for a mild haircut is ignored, leaving him shorn and humiliated. (03:03–04:33)
  • Quote – Leshinsky: “I’m probably not gonna be here for long, so if you could just, like, take a little off the sides…” (03:55)
  • Barber: “Oh, what’s the matter? You don’t like it here?” (04:01)
• Post-haircut Breakdown: Leshinsky cries at the academy gate, drawing the sympathy and stern advice of Commander Patterson. (08:50–13:01)
  • Patterson: “Boys run. Men sit tight. Can’t always run home to Mama. In my experience, if you’re in a storm, it’s best to sit tight.” (10:23–10:48)
  • Patterson’s Story: Patterson recounts his experience during WWII at Anzio, underlining the virtue of perseverance. (10:57–12:01)

---

2. Barracks Chaos and Camaraderie

The daily grind and banter among the cadets signal both the survival mechanisms and social contests at play.

• Smuggling & Bed Check: Bova tries to hide contraband liquor, is caught by Commander Patterson, and wriggles through with humor and denial. (04:35–06:33)
  • Bova: “Do you know anything about the Punic wars, sir?” (05:16)
• Morning Rituals, Hazing, and Dynamic Leadership: Groaning over chores, strategizing about who’s absent, and merciless teasing about bedwetting. (13:48–15:10)
  • Saulo: “All right, you heard the elf. Get in front of your beds. It ain’t Dade Country Club. Let’s count the boners.” (14:31)
• Toothpaste Wars & Latrine Drama: Inspections take a turn for the absurd, with stolen toothpaste, bloody shaving mishaps, and jostling for top bunks. (17:49–19:09)

---

3. Family Tensions and Broken Lines

Dysfunctional relationships between children and parents/authority figures pepper the episode with emotional weight.

• Valentine's Day on the Rocks: Patterson, drunk and melancholic, seeks solace from Nurse Noriko—“Madam Butterfly.” (07:21–08:22)
  • Noriko: “Drinking won’t solve your problems, Pat.” (08:15)
• Sally Barnes & Patterson: Sally confronts Patterson about her mother, her uncertain paternity, and family ruin. (21:01–25:32)
  • Sally: “You’re the only one she ever loved, Pat. Why didn’t you save her? You were her Lancelot…” (21:54)
  • Sally: “So are you my father?” (24:10)
  • Patterson: “Sally, I... I really can’t answer that.” (24:15)

---

4. Rebellion, Smuggling, and Cuban Connections

Parallel to the military school’s disciplined front, a storyline of gun smuggling to aid Cuban revolutionaries adds high stakes and a political edge.

• Cadet Conspiracy: Slouch and Bebop run guns—bazooka in tow—to Cuban contacts, using illicit means to earn cash and adrenaline. (39:04–41:46)
  • Slouch: “What’s the joke? …This is bullshit. Don’t be stupid and stop playing around.” (41:46)
• Encounter with Rebels: The gun drop unfolds in the Everglades, introducing the formidable Anita Torres and rebel leader Miguel Sanchez. (39:04–43:04)
  • Anita: “Now I don’t have to kill you.” (43:04)

---

5. Cadet Life: Yearning, Humor, and Sexual Discovery

Horns are locked, alliances shift, and sexual energies simmer below the surface, especially in interactions with women.

• Sally Barnes and the Cadets: Sally’s beauty is the object of lust and banter—a prize in the boys’ competitions. (22:42–23:19)
  • Angel Bahama Mama: “This gold coin goes to the first man that nails the white maiden Barnes daughter.” (23:02)
• Slouch and Aunt Selena’s Seductive Beach Scene: Slouch is pulled into a flirtatious, comic, and touching exchange with the much-older Selena. (44:01–46:39)
  • Slouch: “You’re a knockout.” (46:16)
  • Aunt Selena: “So you think I still have a nice bod?” (46:28)
  • Slouch: “Venus, you are the birth of Venus.” (46:43)

---

6. Authority, Competition, and Military Ritual

Drill, discipline, competition for privilege, and the encroaching shadow of Vietnam-era geopolitics are ever present.

• Amphibious Warfare Lesson: Discussion about battle tactics and fear of death throws the brutal logic of military service into sharp relief. (27:04–29:53)
  • Bova: “Why the hell would they want to get in the boat?” (27:35)
  • Patterson: “The infantry is the premier branch… the most respected and patriotic service…” (29:02)
• Dade County Fair: The boys learn they’ll be allowed to attend under strict conditions, hinting at both anticipation and risky freedom. (30:10–31:28)
  • Colonel Barnes: “I hope I don’t live to regret this uncharacteristic display of generosity.” (31:03)

---

7. Punctuating Humor and Meta Moments

The read-through’s live energy surfaces, with actors breaking character and offering encouragement or requesting retakes.

• Actor: “Can we get a little more on that read, please? A little more, your conviction.” (40:56)
• Actor: “That was fantastic.” (49:44)
• Actor: “Nice job.” (52:10)

Episode Tone & Style

The dialogue is brisk, raw, and often laced with sardonic humor and 1960s period slang. Both the young cadets and the adults juggle bravado and vulnerability, the cast’s energy oscillating between playful banter and moments of hard-earned wisdom or pathos. The “table read” format occasionally lets the actors step outside their roles, giving the whole production a dynamic, collaborative feeling.

---

Conclusion

"RECALL Act 2" masterfully juxtaposes the coming-of-age journeys of military cadets with the chaotic, unpredictable world of adults who are just as lost. It’s a tapestry of youth struggling for identity, masculinity in crisis, generational wounds, and subversions of the American dream. The table read performance honors both the grit and the humor of the script, drawing listeners into a cinematic, character-rich world.

[B]

Steven Leshinsky arrived expecting discipline. He found a powder keg, slouch and Bebop 2 cadets Running guns to Cuban rebel A bazooka lifted from the bunkers handed off on Biscayne Bay. Colonel Barnes is dying. Commander Patterson is drinking. The army wants their land back. And on Valentine's night when Leschinsky tried to run, Patterson told him the only truth that matters. Boys run. Men sit tight. So he stayed. Now Wheeler's pulling him out of the barracks. The barber wants to see him. Exterior Company Street. Night. Wheeler and Leschinsky walk along toward the rotunda near the mess hall.

[C]

Is your nose feeling any better, Lieutenant?

[A]

In there, piss pot.

[B]

Leshinski heads toward the lighted door of the small building in front of him. Interior, Crow's barbershop. Night. Leschinsky, seated, watches Crow, the barber, run the electric hair clippers over the head of a cadet who is indifferent to the fact that he's being clipped nearly bald.

[C]

Do you know of any phone around here I can use? Huh? No.

[B]

Leschinsky looks around the harshly lit room. It is bare except for a table with a few barbering tools and a chair holding the victim. The floor is thick with a carpet of hair left by the cadets. The cadet is finished with his haircut and gets down from the chair.

[D]

So long, Wendell.

[B]

The cadet doesn't reply. He walks to the door and exits. Crow stands by his chair, waiting for Leschinsky.

[C]

I'm probably not gonna be here for long, so if you could just, like, take a little off the sides and the rest I can leave long under my hat.

[D]

Oh, what's the matter? You don't like it here?

[C]

No, no, it's not that. It's only that I don't think I'm gonna be here that long. So if you could just take a little off the sides, I can leave the rest long under my hat. Like this.

[B]

He pulls his hair back with both hands to show how it can be done.

[A]

See? Oh.

[C]

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, sure.

[B]

And with a gesture, invites Lashinsky to the chair. As Lachinsky gets into the chair, he hears the hum of the clippers. The first sudden stroke zooms down the center of his head, leaving a barren stretch of bristle.

[C]

No.

[B]

Interior, A company barracks. Evening. Bova bursts through the door leading from the latrine. He's frenzied and out of breath, carrying a brown paper bag of booze.

[C]

Somebody take this.

[B]

Sensing a danger at helping Bova, nobody comes to his a.

[C]

Come on, will ya?

[B]

Bova runs over to his locker and throws open the door. He tosses the bag into the bottom of the locker. Commander Patterson lunges wheezing through the latrine doors in hot pursuit of Bova. He sees Bova standing in front of his locker.

[C]

BOVA not fast enough. BOVA what are you talking about, sir? I'm working on this term paper here.

[B]

Patterson nods and looks at the locker. Bova feels the end is Near.

[C]

Do you know anything about the Punic wars, sir?

[B]

Patterson opens the Locke her door.

[C]

How about Giotto, sir? Ever hear of a GTO in your travels?

[B]

Patterson bends down and lifts the bag out of the locker.

[C]

I have no idea how that got there, sir.

[D]

You're sure?

[C]

Yes, sir.

[D]

Underage drinking. Because if it is yours, it's a E file.

[C]

Oh no, no, no, no, no. It ain't mine, sir. Somebody's trying to frame me.

[B]

Patterson looks into the bag.

[D]

Jim Beam. Gilby's. Well, whosever it is, it's contraband. Way too young for this sort of behavior.

[B]

Patterson folds the top of the bag and starts for the door. Patterson stops and looks in the bag again. He pulls out a brown bottle.

[D]

Coconut rum, sir.

[C]

It's Valentine's Day. Wouldn't you just like to stay and join us for just a nip?

[D]

Now what kind of protocol would that be? Coconut rum. You boys should be eating candy. Lights out in 15 minutes. As you were.

[B]

As he walks to the front door, he places the bottle on a ledge near the exit. He leaves. As Patterson leaves, the boys converge in the bottle of tonic water.

[C]

Nice going, lard ass.

[B]

Exterior Boat dock. Evening. From a mango tree overlooking the boat dock, Lindquist watches Patterson lying by the shed downing the last of the Gilby's gin. Patterson throws the empty into the bay. He looks up at the silhouette of the high rise apartment buildings under construction. He looks back at the school. He musters his courage and stands up. He takes a deep breath and staggers forward across the parade field.

[D]

Left. Left. I had a good dame, but she left.

[B]

Exterior Noriko's first aid station. Night. Patterson is outside a lighted window. He taps clumsily on the pane.

[D]

Noriko,

[B]

the nurse we have seen at morning prayer and whom the boys refer to as Madam butterfly. Noriko Yakimoto, 50, comes to the window.

[D]

What, Noriko?

[A]

What you want?

[D]

Well, I was thinking. Today is Valentine's Day.

[A]

Go home, Pat. You're drunk.

[D]

I want a kiss.

[A]

You're drunk.

[D]

I want a kiss for Valentine's Day.

[A]

I give you a kiss, you go home.

[B]

Yes.

[A]

Your word as an officer and a gentleman.

[D]

Ah, Noriko. Why always with the tess?

[B]

Noriko reaches out the window and pulls Patterson's head in through the frame. She kisses him gently.

[A]

Drinking won't solve your problems, Pat.

[D]

Hold me, blossom. It's gonna be a rough night.

[B]

He tries to swing his leg up on the sash in an attempt to get inside. Finally relenting, Noriko starts to help them in. He is halfway through the Window when

[D]

Commander Wheeler go to bed.

[A]

Commander, the new chicken's AWOL already.

[D]

You take care of it, Wheeler.

[A]

They busted my handcuffs. Sir, if you could just.

[B]

Patterson climbs down.

[D]

Where is he?

[A]

Just walk through the damn gate. Waiting for the J bus. Probably misses his mommy.

[B]

Cut to exterior. Academy gate night. Wheeler is helping Patterson weave across the parade ground and through the gate. We see Leschinsky sitting on a bench, crying. He is without hair, bloody nicks in his head. Patterson flops down next to Leschinsky. Wheeler stands at attention.

[A]

What's wrong, candy ass? Can't take it?

[D]

As you were, Wheeler. Get to your bunk.

[B]

Wheeler salutes and does an about face, then rattles away, sword clanking. Behind. There is silence. Leschinsky discreetly trying to wipe his tears.

[D]

Where are you headed, son?

[C]

Don't know. Home, I guess.

[D]

This is your home now, ain't it?

[C]

I hate it here.

[D]

I heard you volunteered. So why'd you come here then?

[C]

I read the brochure. The guy on the COVID had a hat on. I don't know. They hacked up your head.

[D]

Well, now, there's a reason for that, Leschinsky.

[C]

Yeah. To make you feel like hell.

[D]

Hygiene. To make you look like a soldier. Get rid of the excess baggage. Trim you down.

[C]

That explains the food.

[D]

Well, it may not be the Ritz, but it's nutritious.

[B]

Patterson takes a bottle from his pocket and drinks.

[C]

I just want to go home.

[B]

Patterson offers him the bottle. Leschinsky takes a slug.

[D]

So get the bus, go home, shame your parents. Is that what you want to do?

[C]

No, sir. I just hate it here.

[D]

Well, you're not the first. But it ain't always what you hate and what you don't hate. Why not sit tight for a while? Who knows? Maybe you'll change your mind about what's important. That's what men do. Boys just run. Can't always run home to Mama. In my experience, if you're in a storm, it's best to sit tight. Once I was on a beach. Anzio. You heard of Anzio?

[C]

No, sir.

[D]

Where the hell have you been? Invasion of Italy. Amphibious landing. We made it at the beach and we holed up in this area. It was raining like a son of a bitch. A company's objective was to take this town Nuttuno. We were getting nothing from communications, but we had this objective, see? Take Netuno. But seeing as how it was raining on us like elephant piss, nobody knew where the hell we were. So what the hell, we just dug in for the night. Set in the muck, mortars dropping and so on. Morning comes, the rain had stopped and we finally found the town, but the Germans had left.

[B]

The J bus pulls up to the stop in front of the bench and opens its door. Nobody moves. The door closes and moves off.

[D]

The goddamn Heinies had pulled out during the night. We marched into the town without a shot being fired. Objective accomplished, sir.

[C]

I thought you were in the Navy.

[D]

Merchant Marines. Story for another night, son. Now are you gonna head back to your unit or do I turn you over to Wheeler as a deserter?

[C]

No sir.

[B]

Swigs the pint. Lashinsky gets up from the bench.

[D]

Wait a minute. Give me that bottle. How old are you anyway?

[B]

17.

[D]

Well, almost too young for despair, son. 16 and going at it full bore. Just let it idle a bit. And don't forget inspection tomorrow. A company better look sharp or I'll have the entire company in the bull ring.

[B]

Lashinsky walks away.

[D]

Sleep on it, son.

[B]

Patterson sits alone on the bench. ANGLE as Lashinsky passes close to Colonel Barnes HOUSE Sally Barnes is painting by flashlight, putting the finishing touches on her VW van, now army green with a red Cross insignia. She sees Leschinky and stops. They stare at each other for a moment.

[C]

Nice job.

[B]

Need any help? She smiles, gives him the finger, then heads into the house. Lashinski watches for her to return and she doesn't. He backs away toward the barracks, trying to catch sight of her again. ANGLE Linquist in the mango tree, watching. FADE TO INTERIOR barracks mourning barracks.

[A]

10 hut. Order of the DAY A company will police the parade grounds at 09.15 immediately following the morning announcements.

[C]

First platoon, that means you.

[B]

Groans from one side of the barracks.

[A]

As you were.

[B]

He does an about face and heads for the door. One of the boys grabs Wheeler's hat on the way out the door. They laughingly pass it down the bunks.

[A]

Give me that.

[B]

The hat passes to Bear, who is just waking up. Wheeler in a rage, points to Bear.

[A]

You want a report, fella?

[B]

Bear sheepishly hands the hat back to Wheeler.

[D]

No sir.

[B]

Wheeler snaps on his cap.

[A]

15 minutes till formation.

[B]

He marches out. Salo gets out of bed and counts down the rows.

[C]

All right, you heard the elf. Get in front of your beds. It ain't Dade Country Club. Let's count the boners. Sound off.

[B]

The boys are still asleep, at attention in front of their bunks as Saulo comes down the rows counting heads and tapping the beds of the late risers with his bat. They count off and roll call until they come to 32. There is a brief lapse and a voice tries to cover 32. Solo is in on the ruse.

[C]

Wait a minute.

[B]

Cheetham.

[C]

Where the hell is Coombs? No excuse, sir. Girl trouble. Shit. He better be back at inspection at 1400 hours.

[B]

Bear is looking sheepish.

[C]

He wet the bed again. Serge, can I have the top bunk from now on? Pleasant dream, Smith.

[B]

Gators in a bayou, Sergeant, sir.

[C]

How did you ever find your way out of the swamp? Smith? Airboat. I see Trent.

[B]

I was hanging on the back end

[C]

of this cypress tree and the water was real warm. Like Susan Fermi smith. All right, 15 minutes everybody.

[A]

Look sharp.

[C]

Why is it always chaos when we link up? Because nobody plans anything, bro. Good thing the road's ready like that for real. Rain, dirt, whatever available. All wheel drive, five modes. We still outside.

[B]

And they got some kick too.

[C]

That turbo torque is crazy. The most in its class. It moves, moves, moves. Rogue doesn't mess around and peep the space merch on merch. Gear mics. All of it fits.

Anyway, she's fine, I guess. She's a boring zombie. She drives me crazy, but she's fine. She can't stand me, and I can't stand her.

[D]

It hurts me to hear you talk that way about your mother.

[B]

Silence.

[A]

You're the only one she ever loved, Pat. Why didn't you save her? You were her Lancelot. When she gets drinking, she talks about her Lancelot. That sorry son of a bitch never

[B]

even knew he knew. Cut to interior. A company barracks. Day. The boys are pulling old uniform pieces out of their lockers and handing them to Sea Cow, who dresses Linquist in the salvaged parts. All right.

[C]

The guy that gives us the exact number of days we can keep Linqvist. Disguises comes, wins the pot.

[B]

Slouch holds up a large glass cookie jar.

[C]

Put your dollars in here. Come on, let's have them. Let's have them.

[B]

Let's go, boys. Ante up as Slouch passes among the bunks.

[C]

That includes the parade and the Dade County Fair, right? Yep, that's right.

[B]

Lechinsky is at the window of the barracks, looking out into Biscayne Bay through a pair of binoculars.

[C]

Barnesdottir huh? When we were both kids, she used to live over there. And lots and lots of yelling. Hey, gentlemen, ante up. Come on, let's go.

[B]

A bottle of coconut rum is passed around the bunks. Among the boys, Engel Bahama Mama holds up a brass coin.

[C]

This gold coin goes to the first man that nails the white maiden Barnes daughter.

[D]

And lives to tell the tale in

[C]

front of witnesses, naturally. And brings the honor to a company hooray.

[B]

I'll be the first to spare the white.

[A]

Wow.

[B]

And he falls off his bunk drunk. They laugh angel on Lesinski as he still looks through binoculars out the window at the distance. Sally Cross Fade to exterior boat dock Day. Patterson and Sally are sitting on Pat's bench by the bay.

[A]

Anyway, we were getting on each other's nerves. And I have to decide what to do about college. Maybe after he dies, I'll head out to California.

[D]

College wouldn't be a bad idea for now. But you and your dad, maybe you can take this time to patch some fences.

[A]

Oh, maybe. Pigs whistle it isn't like I haven't tried. Pat. He doesn't know me from.

[D]

Maybe you shouldn't give up yet. Getting late.

[A]

So are you my father?

[D]

Sally, I. I really can't answer that. Oh, no, Sally. I mean, I really don't know. It's a question I can't answer. It's possible, I guess.

[A]

You guess?

[D]

I mean it's a question that blew us all apart a long time ago. None of us can be sure. It's just.

[A]

Should I go to water?

[D]

Yeah, I guess. Anyways, you're here. You're back. And we're glad he's happy you're here.

[A]

Oh, bullshit. How the hell do you know anything you wife?

[B]

Patterson is silent. Finally.

[A]

I'm sorry.

[D]

Me too, kiddo. More than I can say. I mean, not about you being here.

[A]

Oh, well. So here I am. Ain't you guys lucky.

[D]

Anyway, it's good your back. He needs you.

[A]

Oh, give us a break. He doesn't give a. And he never did.

[D]

You couldn't be more wrong, right? I think I know.

[A]

So who am I, Pat?

[D]

You're the best of us.

[B]

They watch the setting sun. Cut to exterior parade field Day. A company is marching in formation. Lindquist is in love with his rifle as he tries to keep in step with the others. Cut to exterior Lagoon day. A company's assembled on the grass outside of Patterson's hutch. In the background, Sea cow Hamley is talking through the cyclone fence to Mrs. Lindquist.

[D]

Mr. Trenchard, describe the tactics and techniques. Technique Of a successful amphibious landing.

[C]

No excuse, Sir.

[D]

Give me 10.

[B]

Trencher gets down and does 10 push ups. Angle, Cyclone Fence, Sea Cow and Mrs. Lindquist. Patterson can be heard in the background.

[A]

Well, if you're sure it'll be all

[C]

right, let's just try for a couple of days and see how it works out. It ain't the Ritz, but the food's pretty nutritious. What's the harm?

[A]

Well, Arthur's always wanted to be a soldier.

[B]

She indicates Lindquist sitting at the edge of Patterson's class.

[C]

Okay, Mrs. Lindquist, just so it's our secret.

[B]

Angle, Patterson. He sees sea cow at the fence.

[D]

Mr. Hamley.

[B]

Sea cow, double times. Back to class. Exterior, munitions bunker. Day. Slouch and Bebop are hidden from Patterson's class. Slouch fits his key into the locked door. Cut to exterior Lagoon Day. Patterson diagrams on blackboard. Voiced it on the grass.

[D]

The first wave takes about 25 minutes to hit the shore at 2 minute intervals. The next three waves arrive. The second wave contains the other rifle and weapons companies of each battalion. The third, a tank company and support units. The fourth, more support units. In eight minutes, over 3,000 men and more than 150 armored vehicles are ashore.

[C]

Sir, one simple question.

[D]

What is it, Bova?

[C]

Sir, these are 3,000 men. How you gonna get them in the boats?

[D]

Good question. The success of the entire MAF hinges on the ability of these two dozen LVTPs to get ashore and back in one piece.

[C]

No, sir.

[D]

No, no.

[C]

What I mean is, why the hell would they want to get in the boat?

[D]

Come again?

[C]

Who's gonna get in those boats? Infantry, right?

[D]

Primarily.

[C]

It's my understanding, sir, the odds of serving in the infantry and not being wounded or killed in this century are less than one in three.

[D]

Where'd you hear that?

[C]

I write it, sir.

[D]

Stuff and nonsense. That's World Infantry. Russkies, Gooks, Japs. All those kinds of undisciplined, untrained Bushido bastards. Cannon fodder. I'm talking US Infantry. The most effectively prepared army in the world. The best equipped, training and leadership this country has to offer.

[B]

Exterior, munitions bunker, day. Slouch and Bebop toss a large canvas bag into a storage bin outside the bunker. They run to rejoin the class. Lindquist, who has been watching from a distance, approaches the bin. He tentatively opens the bag and pulls out an Object. He holds a.30 caliber M1 clip in his hand. Cut to exterior Lagoon Day. Patterson is lecturing still.

[D]

And I'll tell you something else, mister. The infantry is the premier branch of the armed forces. The most noble calling and the most respected and patriotic service one can render one's country.

[C]

So I guess getting killed is the highest form of patriotism.

[D]

Look, Bova, you don't fight a war to get shot. You fight to win. Sometimes they shoot back. That's a fact of life.

[C]

I still don't know what would compel me to get in that damn boat, sir.

[D]

Class, class. Can anyone give Bova a good reason for getting in the boat?

[C]

Cause if we don't, they'll come get us and rape our sisters. I don't have a sister. Because it's your duty. Listen, it's like this. I watch your back and you watch mine. And if I get in the boat and you don't, well, I'm gonna blow your fucking head off. That's a good reason.

[B]

Cut to interior. Gymnasium Day. Colonel Barnes is in a wheelchair now. Damron lowers the mic for him at the podium. The boys are in their dress whites. They are just ending the morning prayer.

[C]

Before your leave commences at 1300 hours

[D]

today, there are a few words I'd like to say. As we are all aware, the Dade

[C]

County Fair is in two weeks.

[B]

A loud cheer.

[C]

And this is the first occasion in

[B]

the two years that the school has been invited back to participate.

[D]

I trust that our appearance at this function will not see a repetition of the melee that occurred the year before last. I know how difficult it is dealing with the taunts of the townies, but reacting with undue force is not our

[B]

way of building character.

[D]

Boys working off major punishments will be allowed three hours special leave from 1800 to 2100 hours that afternoon to attend the fair. I hope I don't live to regret this uncharacteristic display of generosity.

[C]

Make me proud.

[D]

Now. I think Ms. Yakimoto has an announcement

[B]

to make about the salt vaccine booster shot. Noriko stands at the podium and addresses the audience shyly.

[A]

The United States Armed Forces has provided us with this blessing. Please come to the dispensary beginning at 0800 hours this morning for your shots. Thank you.

[B]

Thank you, Ms. Yakimoto. Colonel Agamenis, dismiss the corps. Cut to exterior. Front gate Day. The boys are making their exits for the weekend. Slouch and Bebop are furtively lugging a heavy duffel bag through the gate. Leschinsky remains inside the perimeter.

Bear joins them the wild mouse ride in two weeks. Hope they have the wild mouse ride this year. Hey bear, I'm need your boat again. Is it in the same place? But fill her up this time. Yeah, whatever. Leschinsky, keep an eye on Linqvist in case Coombs shows up. Why is it always chaos when we link up? Because nobody plans anything, bro. Good thing the Rogue's ready like that for real. Rain, dirt, whatever available. All wheel drive, five modes. We still outside. And they got some kick too. That turbo torque is crazy. The most in its class. It moves, moves. Rogue doesn't mess around and peep the space merch on merch. Gear mics. All of it fits.

[B]

A car. A car pulls up near the gate with a very attractive Cuban woman driving. She waves to Bebop.

[C]

Behave yourself.

[D]

Okay, okay.

Just so she don't give me a boner.

[B]

Dissolved to exterior. Parade field day. Leschinsky walks around a quiet school. It is deserted except for Wheeler in the distance banging on a mango tree with his sword. He shouts up into the tree, hey,

[C]

I hope it's all right, Mrs. Sarah Penida.

[A]

Of course it is, Antonio. You're welcome here anytime.

[C]

Thank you, ma'.

[D]

Am.

[A]

Anyway, I stopped at the farmer's market. I got these steaks you like, Mando and Antonio. I got some Lebanon bologna. I couldn't remember if you like it thick sliced or thin sliced, so I got both. Better safe than sorry. Then I couldn't decide if you like American cheese or Swiss cheese. But I only had the Swiss cheese sliced thin and then the American sliced thick. The man at the counter was very rude. I hope you don't mind.

[C]

Uh huh. You know, is that a new dress, Mrs. Ciro Pineda?

[A]

Ah, this old thing.

[C]

And you know, it certainly shows off your figure there. You're out of minutes. Come on, Slouch. We got errands to run.

What's that?

[C]

Let's go back again.

[D]

I said, are you familiar with correct military procedure?

[C]

What's that? Removing your hat on a bus. Are you familiar with your teeth? This is our stop. And you know, speaking of animals, lady, you're the dog's ass.

[B]

Lindquist smiles. Cut to exterior Everglades Outpost Day Slouch and Bebop and Anita Torres motor up to a dock in Bear's airboat. Slouch is blindfolded. Bebop drives.

Cut to EXTERIOR Armory WINDOW DAY Wheeler and Lindquist.

[A]

You want to be Coombs, Mr. Coombs it is.

[B]

Wheeler grabs the dog tags around Lindquist's neck, then reads as Lindquist stands at the armory window. He is at least more ready than his earlier attempt.

[A]

Koomptz A25732.

[B]

Lindquist mouths the words and holds his arms ready for the rifle. His calculations are a bit off and the rifle soars out the window, past his waiting hands into the dirt. Wheeler cringes. Cut to EXTERIOR BULLRING Day. The bullring is a white gravel courtyard separating the classroom buildings. It is hot. Lindquist attempts to march to Wheeler's commands. He's not doing that well.

[A]

All right, Mr. Coombs. You owe me 15 demerits. And that's before you went AWOL. Seems your ass is grasped, Mr. Coombs. Let's start with a little double time.

[B]

Can we get a little more on that read, please? A little more.

[C]

You're conviction.

[B]

You're in charge. You're in charge.

[A]

All right, Mr. Coombs. You owe me 15 demerits. And that's before you went AWOL. Seems your ass is grass, Mr. Coombs. Let's start with a little double time. Left, right, left, right.

[B]

Lindquist has no idea what Wheeler is yelling about. Wheeler pokes at him with his sword.

Left, right. Come on, get him up. Mr. Move it.

[B]

Lindquist dances to avoid the sword, then waddles away. Cut to INTERIOR Movie THEATER day. Tippi Hedren is on screen, running from the birds. There's the gas station scene where the car blows up.

[D]

Then I guess you know the Bahia de Coronas.

He didn't seem too happy around Christmas time. So anyway, a month ago, last Tuesday, he went to the Piggly Wiggly for a pack of Camels and never came back home.

[B]

Slouch catches a glare from Bebop but ignores it.

[A]

And you want to know something, Antonio? In my heart, I was deeply relieved.

[B]

Slouch is in lust.

[A]

I mean, I love him, I guess, but I never really liked the son of a bitch. Most of the time, God forgive me, pardon my French. Anyway, after two weeks, I called his mother, who hates me. She informs me that he is in Colombia or Guatemala or God knows where, and it is no es importante to ask me so many questions and that her little prick of a son would let me know when it was my business. Mama's boy. A goddamn mama's boy. The son of a bitch. If only he would have the decency to call me a goddamn son of a bitch. Pardon?

[C]

You're French.

[A]

I mean to sneak out the back door again for cigarettes. I'm sick of it.

[B]

Selena's eyes are moist as she kneels in the sand near the water's edge.

[C]

He'll be back. I mean, Raul's a soldier. He has his duties.

[A]

I know. Duty, honor, and country. And the American dream. All you militaristas are the same. Such macho nonsense.

[C]

Maybe you shouldn't oughta be here if you think like that. Maybe you should have stayed in Cuba.

[A]

What? Gringo de mierda. You know nothing.

[C]

I know mierda ain't French.

[A]

You think you know all about my life?

[C]

Okay, look. You may not have noticed, but you got a lot going for you. You're a dental hygienist with a good income in America. I mean, if you were in Cuba, your teeth would be falling out. You have a fridge full of groceries. I mean, a tv. And I mean, if you don't pardon me saying so, you got a terrific personality and bodies. You can name your ticket. Things ain't so bad for you here.

[B]

Are they?

[A]

You have a smart mouth. No, but you're right. Things are good here. But we gave up a lot to get here. A lot. You have Lebanon bologna. I eat too much. You think I still have a good bod?

[D]

Are you kidding?

[A]

Oh God.

[B]

My. What?

[C]

You're a knockout.

[A]

What are you, all of 17?

[C]

I've been around.

She gets up and walks backward seductively.

[A]

I bet you have. So you think I still have a nice bod?

[B]

Selena backs into the waves and you

[C]

know what you look like standing there? A Botticelli.

[B]

She looks blankly at him as she stands for in the surf.

[C]

Venus, you are the birth of Venus. More on that you're calling out. She's getting further away from you. Venus, you are the birth of Venus.

[A]

Dollars to donuts, the commies are behind that.

[B]

Behind them, Sally Barnes enters the px. Wheeler Caesar.

[A]

Commies are. That damn dragon lady. One of the two. You know one of the most important things about this school is you can get yourself a decent education without girls teeing at you all the time. I've seen them come and go here. And behind every major problem is a woman.

I don't want anything from you. You son of a bitch. I don't even want to be here.

[B]

[A]

What are you doing here, mister? This is off limits. That's a D5 as I recall. Get out of here. Get away from me.

[C]

Are you alright?

[A]

I said fuck off.

[C]

I heard you talking to somebody.

[A]

I was talking to myself, you nosy asshole. What's the matter? Didn't you ever talk to yourself?

[C]

All the time. But it's usually a pretty boring conversation.

[A]

Can't a person get any privacy in this damn fishbowl?

[C]

I've been asking myself the same question. You know when I talk to myself, I say Lachinsk. You come to this place, you get kicked out of bed at 5 o' clock in the morning. You can get fed children on a shingle and you want to barf in your bunk. But that's a D6. Then they shave my head so I look like Murtimer Snerd. Then they march me around in circles for days. Carrying a 10 pound rifle in 190 degree heat with an 11 year old Hitler screaming in my face. Then I meet this beautiful girl who tells me to get lost. So here I am talking to you. That was great.

[D]

I loved it.

[C]

It's Mortimer. Mortimer. All right, let's do it one more time. Keep that same passion.

[D]

That was fantastic.

[C]

I've been asking myself the same question. You know when I talk to myself, I say leshinsk. You come to this place, you get kicked out of bed at five o' clock in the morning and you get fit. Shit on a shingle, you want to barf in your bunk, but that's a D6. Then they shave my head so I look like Mortimer Snerd. Then they march me in circles for days, carrying a 10 pound rifle in 190 degree heat with 11 year old Hitler screaming in my face. And I meet this beautiful girl who tells me to get lost. So here I am talking to you.

[A]

You're right. You are boring.

Cut to exterior, Miami Beach. Day dusk. Slouch is on the beach with Bebop. Aunt Selina is in the water while Bebop and Slouch argue.

Just give me the towel. No. Come on. It wasn't me. It was the wave. A wave came along and pulled them apart right off.

[A]

Bird.

[C]

You think I'm blind? You think I didn't see you copulating in the ocean like a couple of carefree sperm whales? Copulating? What is that, some spick word? What are you so mad about? You have the culture of a pig. Just give me the damn towel.

[B]

Bebop throws a towel on Slouch's face. Slouch hurries to assist aunt Selina who is rapidly turning blue.

[D]

Come on.

[C]

Ain't you ever been in love?

[B]

Slouch takes a towel out into the syrup and wraps it around Aunt Selena. Exterior Parade Field Evening Wheeler walks across the parade field with his family chauffeur Edison.

[D]

On Tuesday I received a communication saying she would be sailing from Athens to Cape Antibes and was curious to know whether you would be able to join her for the summer in Crete.

[A]

Is she still at that grease ball?

[D]

As far as I know.

[B]

Wheeler shakes his head in disgust as they approach the frame.

[D]

I was wondering if you were still interested in seeing Ben Hur this weekend. You had expressed some previous interest.

[A]

Not this weekend, Edison. Duty calls.

[D]

Very good, sir. Are you in need of any cash?

[A]

No.

[B]

Outside the gate, Wheeler opens the driver's door to a very long black limousine and ushers Edison inside.

[A]

I'll check with you on Thursday.

[B]

Edison hands Wheeler a cardboard box.

[D]

Your shirt, sir. Lighter on starch this time.

End of act two.

Nice job.
