Previously on The Code...

Jason was stabbed
by one of his own men.

TREY: Giving that family
a lot of help.

Yeah, just like I said I would
when Jason died.

ADAM:
Thanks for the boots, Mom.

Adam and three other Marines
never reported back

from their last patrol.
They're being held
in the same complex

where Richard Barnwright
is hiding.

But if we sign off
on a MOAB strike,

we might be killing your son.

File it.

VAN HORN:
Hey, man, you in the Marines?

Hell, yes. Semper Fi.
VAN HORN: Oh, nice.

I knew. I can spot
a Devil Dog a mile away.

Uh, you in the Corps?
VAN HORN: Man, I wish.

So why are you in uniform?

Uh, well, this is our reunion,
so I'm in my dress uniform.

VAN HORN:
Yeah, 'cause I thought
you only wore that one

when you were deployed.

What, are you invading
Baltimore, Marine?

Uh, hey, man, we're just
a couple of friends.

We're trying
to have a nice night.

VAN HORN: It's all good, man.
I don't mean to disrespect you.

I just get confused, I guess.

Oh, wait, man, you're in the
1st Civ Div. That's cool, man.

Uh, yeah, yeah, brother,
yeah, I was.

VAN HORN: Yeah, what was
your I.D.I.O.T. number?

Uh, 32-86543.

We got him, folks.

You just gave me your
"idiot number," moron.

And there's no such thing
as the First Civilian Division.

Hey, man, who the hell are you?

VAN HORN:
Your boots are all wrong,

your hat is from
the freaking Army,

and your insignia says that
you're in the 5th Marines.

There hasn't been
a 5th Marines since 1969.
Shut up.

Stolen valor! Stolen valor!
Hey.

You better back the hell off.
Or what?

'Cause this is what a real
Marine looks like, right here.

My friends died wearing that
uniform, you fat little bitch.

Stolen valor! St...

And you put this on
the Internet why, exactly?

Shame.

Shame.
Yeah.

That guy was wearing the uniform
so he could-- I don't know--

get free drinks.

He deserves shame.
So you protected the Corps by...

Hell yeah.

...calling a stranger
a "fat little bitch"?

Your "stolen valor" video
picked up

700,000 views
in three days.

Do you make money through shame?

I'm saving up for a Ninja.

You're saving up for a Ninja.

It's a motorcycle, ma'am.

Why did you come see us today,
Lance Corporal?

Uh, that guy in the video,
James Dale,

I kind of hit him
a couple times.

He filed a civil suit.

Smart.

You were probably only going
to be charged with battery.

Nominal fine, time served
in overnight lockup.

This way he can
make money off you,

maybe get a Ninja of his own.

My CO said a judge advocate
could fix this for me.

He said to mention
something called the SCRA.

The Servicemembers Civil Relief
Act is to protect spouses

from losing their homes
while their partners serve,

things like that,
not things like this.

Yeah, but my CO said that it
guarantees legal representation

for all active duty,
so, full respect, ma'am,

I'm sitting here
until I get some help.

Rami.

Can you name two
Cabinet-level positions?

Secretary of Housing
and Urban Development,

Secretary of
Veterans Affairs.

Lance Corporal Van Horn here
needs legal representation.

I have to attend to matters

that matter.

Would you mind kindly setting
him up with Lieutenant Pfister?

Absolutely. I just saw
the lieutenant upstairs.

Name three of the
original 13 states.

New York, New Jersey,
Georgia.
Boom.

Why are people asking you
all these weird questions?

They're just helping me study
for my citizenship exam.

You're not American?

I have a green card. As I'm sure
you know, military service

confers an accelerated path
to full citizenship.

You sound American.

I grew up in
Grand Rapids, Michigan.

Oh, cool, I got cousins
in Grand Rapids.

There and Tabriz.

So this guy Pfister I got,
is he any good?

He's... experienced
at being a lieutenant.

Beautiful flowers,
Lieutenant Li.

What's the occasion?

The occasion is having
an amazing fiancé.

Oh, uh, quick detour, then I'll
get you to Lieutenant Pfister.

ABE: Major Jason Hunt
was a positive influence

in the life of everyone
who served under his command.

It's an honor
to be asked to summarize

his career, but it's
an intimidating one.

Is that the right word,
"intimidating"?
(knocking on glass)

I could come back later.

Oh, it's okay, uh,

my old CO is being
promoted posthumously

at his pinning ceremony.
Major Ferry's just helping me

figure out what to say.
RAMI: Of course, sir.

I followed up with
Svalbard Books.

They're expecting your first
edition of The Guns of August

by the end of the week.
Thank you, Rami.

How many amendments
does the Constitution have?

27, sir.
Uh, "daunting,"

instead of "intimidating,"
Captain.

You're a
Warrant Officer.

That means you've been
in the Marines for, what?

Going on nine years now.
But you're still
not a citizen?

It's an
involved process.

There can be certain hiccups
for a person of my heritage.

The background checks
are... extensive.

All's well that
ends well, though.

I finally have an appointment
for my interview.

Oh, there he is.
Lieutenant Ike Pfister.

Hey, Ram, what's up?

This is Lance Corporal
Van Horn.

Captain Dobbins asked you
to handle his case.

Cool. You want one of these?

MAYA: That footage was
taken by a tribal elder

we're friendly with.
He was one

of the first people
back in Parwan

after we dropped
the MOAB.

Strategically, we think
the strike was a success.

Our SIGINT teams
are hearing chatter

that indicates
Richard Barnwright

and at least ten other
IS fighters were killed

when the blast wave hit the
tunnels where they were hiding.

Barnwright's gone, ma'am.

He won't be murdering
anyone else on YouTube.

And the captured Marines?

None of our intercepts
mention hostages.

There's no indication
that your son and the other

Marines were being held
in the tunnels.

Thank you, Captain.

I know you're taking this on
in addition

to your caseload.
Ma'am, I'm sorry
to have to say this...

I understand.

There's nothing that indicates
Adam was in those tunnels.

There's also nothing
that indicates he wasn't.

(children laughing on TV)

You know, once
the kid's in bed,

you are allowed
to change the channel.

Danny told me about this show
on the way home from school,

so I told her
I'd watch this episode

so we can talk
about it tomorrow.

She really
likes you, Abe.

Jason was gone so much,
she's slow to warm up to men.

You did well with her.

You and Jason

did well.

Do you ever
slow down?

If I don't do it,
it doesn't happen. (sneezes)

Bless you.
Thank you.

What's that?

It's just stuff that my lawyer
wants me to nag you about.

The talking points that you
haven't been reading,

a rough timetable
for the next few years.

You agreed to testify about
what happened to Jason.

It's no fun,
but this is the deal.

(sneezes)

Bless you.

Thank you.

Do you mind?

You're burning up.

Oh, I don't have time
to be sick.

Go, sleep.

I'll check in on
Danny and Maggie.

I've got it, Al.

If you want, I can crash
on the pullout.

Help them get ready for school

and day care.

You are too good to us.

When I was posted
at Leatherneck with Jason,

the night before we went on
the op where I got shot...

...we knew it was gonna be bad.

I promised Jason that,
if anything happened to him,

I'd be there for
you and the kids.

I'm here, Al,

until you tell me not to be.

It's no fun,
but this is the deal.

MAYA: We should get
local command to authorize

extra cash payments to every
tribal leader in Parwan

who'll still take our calls.

Someone knows what happened
to Adam Turnbull.

Can I call you back?

Lieutenant Pfister,
what is this?

That's the file
on the Van Horn case.

Major Ferry asked me
to pass it on to you.

Looks like you guys
are gonna be cocounsel.

The Stolen Valor Guy?

Lance Corporal Van Horn
got into a bar fight.

Why do we need two
senior attorneys on this?

James Dale, the guy
that Van Horn hit,

well, apparently, he's
been having headaches

since the night
of the fight.

Went to the ER yesterday,
lost consciousness

while they were
examining him.

He had a blood clot
in his brain.

Doctors say it was
from the fight.

Had a blood clot?

It ruptured early this morning.
James Dale died.

This is
Article 118 now.

Lance Corporal Van Horn
is being charged with murder.

♪ ♪

ey can't charge me
with murder. He took the

first swing. I was just
defending myself.

It's all there
on camera.
We're confident we can plea down

to a lesser charge,
maybe Article 119,

Involuntary Manslaughter.

No. He hit me.
The government

will likely argue that your
extreme hostility was itself

an act of provocation,
and that James Dale

had reason to fear
for his safety.

So what now? I spend the rest of
my life in a brig?

We'll try to prevent that,
but the fact is,

you personally recorded evidence
of yourself committing a crime,

then posted it to the Internet

for 700,000
people to watch.

900,000, as of this morning.

VAN HORN (on video):
And there's no such thing as...

Pitch in with something?

Sure.

...boots are all wrong and your
hat is from the freaking Army.

I caught this.

The guy operating
the camera is a Marine.

The man he's
confronting

died early this morning.

Count your lucky stars
and send that guy

a thank you card.
He delivered your case

to you in a
heart-shaped box.

Look at this, though.

The guy loading
the groceries

is a math teacher from
Bismarck, North Dakota.

He was exposed as a faker
by a lance corporal

who was home on leave.

The confrontation
got physical.

He came away with a broken arm.
This one...

was recorded near
Naval Air Station

in Key West. Two of our pilots
down there got into it

with a local
named Alvaro Mendo.

Mendo's in a
medically-induced coma.

There are more,

and they're all from videos
posted to this website.

Okay, I get the idea.

Stolen Valor confrontations on
FakeMarine.com have a tendency

to get violent,
and you want to know why.

What does the guy
you're prosecuting

have to say
about it?

Lance Corporal Van Horn
told the defense

he just kind of
understood

that violent confrontations
got more views.

I'm not sure that explains
the pattern, though.

These sites are everywhere now,
but FakeMarine.com

is the only one with
a consistent history

of violent
confrontations.

So when you say "pitch in,"

you mean I fly down to Key West,

interview those
Leatherneck flight jockeys,

and ask 'em if anyone

from that website incentivized
them to get handsy?

Be a big help.

Done. Make sure
you notify defense.

My guess is they'll
want to come with.

Hold up.

You go to Key West
and I go to North Dakota?

Can't be helped, Lieutenant.
I got to be back here

in time to pick up
Danny Hunt from school.

They're gonna ask about the six
months you were in London

at your cousin's-- I have
to find what I wrote.

Just tell them that
my aunt was sick.

Kind of helps that it's true.
No, I know,

it's just, I had details about
her treatment written down.

Rami, it's fine.
It's gonna be fine.

(exhales)
We went over everything.

The best thing for you
to do now is relax.

You don't want your palms
to be all sweaty.

Do you have the, uh, cold water?

Good morning, Grace.

Just checking to see
if they scheduled

my husband's interview yet.

Nothing new
this morning, S.Y. Sorry.

Check back tomorrow?
SEO-YUN:
Ah.

Okay.

Excuse me.

Uh, do-- y-you know someone
who joined the military

through the MAVNI program?

My husband.
We wanted to come here,

and the Army needed
Korean speakers.

I'm sorry.

It's terrible
what they did to you.

They told us our entire family
would have citizenship

once Min-jun's service ended.

But once we got here,
they took it all back.

They might deport me.

My daughter, too.

We made you a promise.

We owed you better.

MAYA:
I'll be in touch with
my contacts in Afghanistan

at all times, ma'am.
They can reach me

in the air if they need to.

(over phone):
If there's any news about Adam,

I'll call right away.
I appreciate

the update, Captain.
(phone chimes)

Do you need to get that, ma'am?

I've been getting these calls
from scrambled numbers all day.

I think the telemarketers have
gotten hold of my new cell.

We should be back
to Quantico by COB.

Understood. If my husband
finds anything out

from the diplomatic side,
I'll let you know.

Copy.

How'd you pull Key West detail?

I used my wiles, of course.

Did you just say "wiles"?

That and Trey
has this weird thing

about wanting to see
all 50 states.

He's never been to North Dakota.

You never answered my text
about bringing a bathing suit.

I am a lawyer and an officer in
the United States armed forces.

Nobody's asking you
to be unprofessional.

Both of those professions
stress constant readiness.

If, within the course
of my duties, an opportunity

for a quick swim
presents itself,

this Marine is ready.

HARPER: Thank you, sir.
Have a safe flight back.

Abe and Maya just left the brig
at NAS Key West.

Both of those pilots

have the same story as
Lance Corporal Van Horn.

They didn't receive explicit
instructions from anyone

at FakeMarine.com

to get violent with the fakers
they exposed, they just watched

the other videos on the site
and imitated what they saw.

Captain Abraham
also wants to know

if North Dakota is everything
you'd hoped it would be.

I wouldn't expect
Captain Abraham to appreciate

the more sunlight-challenged
states. Anything else?

Yes, sir. He also just
sent this text.

(door closes)

Thank God. Marines.

Can you get me
out of here, Officers?

We're not your transfer team,
Lance Corporal Arndt.

They're taking their time
getting here, ma'am.

Can you at least turn
the thermostat up?

These chair force guys
are icing me out.

We'll see what we can do, but if
you wanted Marine Corps heat,

you might have
recorded that video

a little closer to
one of our bases.

(exhales)
I'm Major Ferry.

This is Lieutenant Li.

We're judge advocates
from Quantico.

Quantico? They told me
my attorney's local.

We're not assigned to your case.

We're interested
in FakeMarine.com.

HARPER:
You posted 11 Stolen
Valor videos under

the username
Basilone's Ball Bag.

Yeah, like after Manila John?

He won the Navy Cross
and the Medal of Honor.

I'm sure the Basilone Foundation
appreciates the shout-out.

Your first eight videos ended

without any kind
of intense confrontation.

They languished
on the back pages

of FakeMarine.com,
and your last three,

you switched to more aggressive
tactics, got more views,

made more money.
So?

So what changed?
Why'd you go full bully?

Why should I talk
to either of you?

Because we're looking
at something way bigger

than your dumb case,
Lance Corporal Arndt.

Because if we make
you a witness,

that will be your best
shot at a decent deal.

And also: we walked
right by that thermostat

on our way in.

Now, you tell us something good,

and we might just
dial it up a notch.

ABE:
Lance Corporal Arndt

wrote nine e-mails to the
administrator of FakeMarine.com,

asking how he could get
more traction for his videos.

After the eighth one, he
finally got a response.

"Your videos aren't getting
clicks because they're boring.

You got to get in there, man.
You got to shake these guys up."

Lance Corporal Arndt
wrote back,

asking what
the administrator meant

by "shake these guys up,"
here's what came back:

"Get in their face.

"Hurt them. What's
the old saying?

If it bleeds, it leads."

ABE:
That is a direct solicitation,
ma'am. The administrator

of that site is commissioning
Marines to act as vigilantes.

Whomever that administrator
might be.

The site's owned
by a shell company.

We'll find him before
more people get hurt, ma'am.

(phones buzzing)

Something to do
with the case?

(phone chimes)
(sighs)

I've been getting these
for hours. Excuse me.

Hello?

MALE VOICE (distant):
Mom? You...
(phone crackling)

Mom? You need...
track the sat...

Adam?

KOZLOWSKI: We believe your son
is being held in Waziristan.

The Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province

is is a mountainous
no-man's-land.

GLENN:
How did Adam get

from those tunnels to a
mountaintop in Pakistan?

We can't be sure
he was ever in the tunnels.

That may have been bad intel.
Thank you.

We think
that's your son.

As far as how he wound up
in Waziristan,

probably
a prisoner exchange.

It looks as if
Lieutenant Turnbull

got free long enough
to place the calls,

and then his captors
caught up with him.

Another moment later,
they're all gone.

They very likely went
into those caves.

So we know where those Marines
are being held.

When do we stage the rescue?

We can handle
the political fallout

from a low-impact raid into

an ostensibly
friendly country.

What can't we handle?

There are maps
of that cave system,

but we don't have
access to them.

They're owned by a mining
company. Without them,

we'd be sending
our Raiders in blind.

Can't we just ask?

These are American lives.

Widecombe Consolidated

has held the mineral rights
to this region

since the 1800s.

But they have a problem with
illegal mining operations,

so they keep their maps
locked away.

From the U.S. government?

And without the maps?

We're looking into options.

ALEX:
Nobody woke me up
for the kids' bedtime.

You're sick.
You needed sleep.

I feel a bit better, actually.

I think the fever broke.

(laughs)

You meant it when you told Danny
that you like this show?

Honestly?

I'm too tired
to change the channel.

Welcome to parenting.

I mean, I...
not that you're their...

I know what you meant.

I talked to my sister today.

It's funny,
your name kept coming up.

Good things, I hope.

She thinks it's weird
that you're around so much.

(TV clicks off)

I could come over less.

No, I don't want that.

(laughs softly)

It's easy for her to do,
you know?

She's not on
the ground here.

You are here...

and I'm grateful.

(chuckles)

It does happen, though, right?

I mean, we've all seen it
on base.

Husband dies,
and his friend starts

helping out
around the place,

and all of a sudden,
they're a thing.

Sure. I've seen it.

I've judged it.

It looks different
from the other side.

You're alone, you're lonely.

(exhales):
And there's somebody
there who...

can do at least
some of the stuff

that your partner used to do,
so you grab onto it.

And that person keeps
coming around.

Maybe it's easy.

Maybe it...

...feels right.

So, of course, when
your guard's down, you think,

"Why stop at chores?
Why should we share

"all the work and not the joy?

Why should I walk upstairs alone
even one more night?"

(laughs softly):
But that's just sometimes.

When your guard
is down.

What do you get
out of this, Abe?

I...

...made a promise.

That's it? Duty calls?

I am going upstairs now.

Good morning,
Captain Abraham.

Rami. Have you lost weight?

Not recently, no.

Uh, Lieutenant Li
asked me to look into

who might be running
FakeMarine.com.

Well, something's changed, but I
can't quite put my finger on it.

Are you wearing lifts
in those shoes?
Of course not, sir.

And I do know where
you're going with this.

Did you lose your virginity?

I've been married
for four years.

My question stands.

It stands to reason that
the site administrator

is also the first person
who posted a video there.

That individual goes
by the username RickRoll54.

So our bad guy has a weakness

for Internet trends
that went stale a decade ago?

We don't choose our passions,
sir, they choose us.

RickRoll, whoever he is, shot
dozens of videos over the years,

but he never stripped
the GPS information

from any any of his postings.

The videos were recorded in
and around Cincinnati, Ohio.

Which narrows it down to, what,
three million Midwesterners?

Ohio is actually
a Mid-Atlantic state.

The videos were taken

in Cincinnati, unless,
that is, of course,

they were shot on the second
Sunday of every month.

In that case, they were recorded
in Roanoke, Virginia.

So this guy, RickRoll,
is in the Marine Reserves;

he lives in Cincinnati and once
a month reports to Roanoke

for I&I.
Exactly. I called

the commanding officer of the
fourth combat engineer battalion

and he told me
currently has

three reservists who
live in Cincinnati.

One is African American.

You can see RickRoll's hands
in several of the videos,

so that rules him out.
The others are

Staff Sergeant Lionel Kearns
and Lieutenant William Albrecht.

Thank you, Rami.
I suppose Harper and I should

get to Ohio
and see what we can learn.
I'll alert Lance Corporal

Van Horn's defense team.
They'll want to go, too.

Think I've got it now.

There's a certain aura
of unassailable patriotism.

Yes. About that, sir...

Rami? Can we see you in here?
It's urgent.

WOMAN:
There he is.
Congratulations!

(cheering, whooping)

We don't mean
to get ahead of ourselves,

but you never missed a question
on your practice tests.

And the colonel is sorry
she couldn't be here.

Her son.
Oh.

So? Tell us how it went.

I didn't take the test.

ABE: But it
took them

years to finish
your background check.

What happened?

There was a protest
outside the building

where I was
supposed to take it.

People who are
here through MAVNI.

They didn't break any rules.

We asked them to come--
We needed them to come.

The kinds of
people who know

more than one language
in this country?

Who can program computers?

They don't do
military service anymore.

No arguments here. It's brutal
what the military did

to the last batch of MAVNI
recruits, but you're

on a green card; that has
nothing to do with you.

We backed out of every
promise we made to them.

Now they're in limbo.

Their families
might get deported.

I couldn't just walk past that.

Somebody has to,

you know,
stand with those people.

Even if it's just me.

That's incredibly brave.

What does your wife think?

She's super pissed.
(chuckles)

She won't be the only one.

When people up the chain
find out,

they're definitely
going to have opinions.

You might even need a lawyer.

Are you saying you'd...
Of course I would.

Not that you'd have
any shortage of volunteers.

Thank you, ma'am.

Why would people find out
what I did?

Because you're going
to tell them.

I'm... No.

I-I don't like talking
about myself.
TREY:
Rami.

If you're going
to protest something,

you kind of have to admit

that's what
you're doing.

(exhales)

HARPER:
I can't stop thinking

about what Rami did.

I know, it's
incredibly stupid.

Stupid?
He's got a wife

and a daughter and a
path to citizenship

in a country
that remains

a heavyweight contender
for best place on Earth.

He's not thinking
about himself.

That's what makes
it so amazing.

I said it was
stupid, Lieutenant.

It can be that,

and also one of the
most courageous things

I've ever seen.

If people didn't do
incredibly stupid things

sometimes, we'd still
be in the Dark Ages.

(cell phone
buzzing, chiming)

It's Abe.

He and Trey talked
to Lionel Kearns,

apparently he's not
smart enough to log onto

the Internet,
let alone run a website.

Did they send a picture?

MAYA:
Chili.

It is Cincinnati.

Let's go.
Spike it. Go.

(players shouting)

No one calls me "Lieutenant"
here.

In this gym,
it's Coach Albrecht.

Lieutenant, we're here
to talk about FakeMarine.com.

Have you heard of
or visited that website?

FakeMarine?

Never heard of it.

So the username RickRoll54
doesn't mean anything to you?

Rick Roll? What does that mean?

Officers, I'm more
than happy to answer

any questions you've
got, but these ladies

have states coming up. Can I
maybe meet you after practice?

How about they finish up
this scrimmage

and we confirm a few things
with you afterwards?
Done.

(players shouting)

(ringtone playing):
♪ Never gonna give you up ♪

♪ Never gonna let you down ♪

♪ Never gonna run... ♪

Is that Rick Astley?

Maybe, I-I don't know.

♪ Never gonna make you cry... ♪

Told you ladies not to bring
your phones to practice.

What are you talking
about, Coach Albrecht?

That's your phone.
♪ Hurt you ♪

♪ Never gonna give you up... ♪

So you don't know anything
about rickrolling,

but your ringtone
is "Never Gonna Give You Up"?

Is that so weird?

I wouldn't call it weird,
exactly. More like...

♪ Say good-bye... ♪

What's the phrase
I'm looking for?

Hmm.

Probable cause to search

everything you own.

If you're
the administrator

of FakeMarine.com, then someone
is dead because of you.

Get ready for your turn
in front of the camera.

♪ Never gonna make you cry... ♪

Why do you want my testimony?

I never even met that guy from
FakeMarine.com.

We searched Lieutenant
Albrecht's computers

right before we apprehended him.
We know he was the administrator

of the site. We know he sent
the e-mail directing

Lance Corporal Arndt
to get physical

with the people
he confronted.

Once this goes to court-martial,
we just need you to testify

as to the contents
of your own videos

and how the general tone of
FakeMarine.com influenced

their creation.
Uh, sure, I could do that.

That's a relief.

In the future,
Lance Corporal,

let's refrain from trying
to talk your accuser

out of making a deal.
What are you offering
our client in exchange

for his testimony?
119-Bravo,
involuntary manslaughter.

(scoffs)
I wasn't aware you were

part of the defense team, Ike.

Lieutenant Pfister
was representing

Lance Corporal Van Horn back
when this was a civil thing.

Technically,
he's still aboard.

MAYA: If you're
willing to consider

our client's commendations
during sentencing,

you've got yourself a witness.

Wait, that's it?
Ike, we're negotiating here.

He thinks we should get more.

Would you like to proceed with
Lt. Pfister as primary council?

We'll take the deal.

(faint chatter)

Are you Mitchell Burston?

The CEO of Widecombe
Consolidated?

I am.
May I?

My name is Glenn Turnbull.

I'm a colonel with
the U.S. Marines.

I understand why
you're here, Colonel Turnbull.

Do you?
You want our maps

and I am sympathetic
to your position.

If you're so sympathetic,

why haven't you returned
any of my calls?

Because sad as it is, we don't
have anything to talk about.

Mr. Burston...
I couldn't help you
even if I wanted to.

Our shareholders elected

not to share
our proprietary information

with any government.

My son is being held
captive in those tunnels.

My son, Adam, is
being held on your land.

Not ours;
we have mineral rights.

It's your land.

And you're
so sympathetic that I had

to crash your lunch
to talk to you.

I am sorry for your situation.

Truly, and I will pray
for your son's safe return,

but I really think
it's better if we don't talk.

Shareholders can be wrong,
Mr. Burston.

I'm sure
you're highly aware of that.

When this goes viral

and they're looking
for a face to smear

all over social media,

I will personally guarantee
that it's yours.

You think your shareholders
are gonna have your back when

you're the face of a decision
that killed four Marines?

Let's not do threats;
we're a mining company.

Everybody hates us already.
I'm not talking about
your company.

I'm talking about you.

I'm talking about a mob
that won't stop howling

until you go away forever.

You wouldn't do that.

I have ordered better men
to their deaths than you.

I will end you on my way

into yoga and forget your name

by the time
we get to Warrior 1.

Can't hide behind
your shareholders.

Not on this.

On this,
you're accountable to me.

(ticking rapidly)

Lieutenant Colonel Maddox,
I am Trey Ferry.

Pleasure to meet you.
I know who
you are, Major.

Glenn Turnbull has some balls
putting me off on a staffer.

Colonel Turnbull's son
is being held

by the enemy in Pakistan.
Shall I tell her to drop that?

(clears throat)

So, what can we do
for the Human Resources

in Organizational
Management branch?

There's a
warrant officer

on your staff,
Rami Ahmadi.

He's apparently
planning some

sort of stunt with
his citizenship.

So you read the notice
in the Quantico Sentry.

Why doesn't he just walk
into the commandant's office

and take a dump on the desk?

MAYA: Mr. Ahmadi's
expressing his

conscience, ma'am.
There's a tradition

of civil disobedience
in this country,

they wrote a book
about it and everything.

Was the author a Marine?

Who is this?

I figured you came
about the article.

Captain Dobbins
is advising Mr. Ahmadi

on his rights
in this matter.
He has the right to go back

to that office and take
his citizenship test.

Mr. Ahmadi believes in

this country and
the mission of the Corps.

If he believed in our mission,

he wouldn't show us up
in public.

He has a distinguished record

and is a vital asset
of this office.

I don't care if he won
the damn Navy Cross.

He needs to have
a "Come to Allah" moment.

Did you just say,
"Come to Allah"?

Mr. Ahmadi's private
act of conscience

is outside of the scope
of our authority.

This office has no right
to influence or dissuade him.

I would like to speak
with Colonel Turnbull.

I have the colonel's proxy
in this.

To be continued.

And you get off
your ass and stand

when I leave a room, Major.

BAILIFF:
All rise.

We rose. You gonna
bring us a judge?

Monty tried to
join the Corps

back when we
didn't make it easy

for folks like
her to serve.

She's been feasting on
judge advocates ever since.

Our loss, her motion
to dismiss is really good.

We drew an outstanding judge,

no way Corpus tosses
the e-mail to Arndt.

(door opens)
BAILIFF:
All rise.

(sighs)

(door shuts)
That's not
Lt. Colonel Corpus.

ABE: No, it most
certainly is not.

If you believe what she says,

Judge Corpus
has a family emergency.

I was summoned
from the parking lot

to fill in for her.
I'd like to be back.

Motion to dismiss.

Discuss.

Colonel Zugler...

I am a colonel and a judge,
Lieutenant.

Colonel Judge Zugler,

the defendant's e-mail
to Lance Corporal Arndt

is clearly an offer
to compensate him

for submitting violent videos
to FakeMarine.com.

"Get in their face. Hurt 'em.
If it bleeds, it leads."

Provocative language, yes.
My client is passionate

about protecting
Marines.

But I don't see anything
transactional in there.

I don't, either.
Colonel Judge,

the defendant tells
Lance Corporal Arndt

he needs to commit violent acts

in order to get
more page views.

In the context of

FakeMarine.com,
page views are money.

That's a stretch.
Your Honor, the two
are directly

correlated. I fail to see
how it is a stretch.

I don't like stretches.

Leads to muscle pulls
in a man my age.

Motion to dismiss... upheld.

(clears throat)

GRAY:
Colonel Turnbull.

Mr. Maholm.

You can call me Gray.

Why didn't you make
an appointment with my office?

At close of business today,
we got an encrypted file

from Widecombe
Consolidated.

Had the keys to
the kingdom inside.

Complete maps of the cave system
in Waziristan.

You went to see
Mitchell Burston.

What'd you say to him?

Not much.

Just two grown-ups talking.

Remind me not to get
on your bad side.

We're in planning mode.

It won't last long.

You won't see me again
until it's over.

But I thought you'd
want to know.

Thank you, Gray.

VAN HORN:
This is what

a real Marine
looks like...

ABE:
Good morning,
Lieutenant.

...died wearing that uniform,
you fat little bitch!

Ooh, marinating in defeat,
are we?

I wouldn't
say marinating.

My bad. Well, stop ruminating,
or whatever it is you're doing.

Marti DiMonte is coming in
for a meeting.

Why are we meeting with
William Albrecht's lawyer?

The case is over.

I don't know. I had this
really dumb idea.

It requires a shared willingness
to be aggressive and obnoxious,

and it's almost certain to crash
and burn in spectacular fashion.

Trey and Maya are down to help.

Trey and Maya are
defense attorneys.

They're not William Albrecht's
defense attorneys.

Care to make a last stand
beside your colleagues?

What is this idea?

In his deposition,

Lieutenant Albrecht said
he only made that site

to protect real Marines.

His attorney said it again
in court.

Let's see if he's willing to put
his money where his mouth is.

Wow, guys.
How many attorneys

does it take
to wave a white flag?

Not much left to talk
about, is there?

No, there's nothing
left to talk about,

as far as I'm concerned.

This is a courtesy meeting.

We want to inform you

that this office will be
proceeding with a series

of Article 114 prosecutions,
and that your client

can expect to be
called as a witness

in each and every
one of them.

I've never heard of Article 114.

"Article 114.

"Any person

"subject to this chapter
who fights or promotes,

"or is concerned in,
or connives at

fighting a duel..."
Dueling?

"... or who, having
knowledge of a challenge

sent or about to be sent,"

blah, blah, blah,
boilerplate, boilerplate...

"shall be punished as
a court-martial may direct."

What's that got to do
with my client?

The charges
are being preferred against

Staff Sergeant Aaron Pierce,
PFC John David Darnell...

I know those names.

Lance Corporal
Luciano Heredia...

Those are the guys who
posted videos on my site.

Everyone who put up
a Stolen Valor video

on FakeMarine.com

is gonna be charged
with Article 114.

They recorded people
with their phones.

You're charging them
with dueling?

We plan to argue that the act
of approach and confrontation

is a provocation tantamount
to a physical challenge.

You can't do that.
Those are good Marines.

Relax.
This is nonsense.

These men will be charged
and tried.

They shamed fakers.
We absolutely will do it.

Do you know what I feel

about a person who pretends
to be a Marine, Lieutenant?

I feel sad

that that person has
a hole in their life,

a hole so big it can only
be filled with lies.

I don't feel rage,

or the need to ruin
that person's life,

because I'm not a bully.

Because I know that
that person's sad lie

has absolutely no effect

on my choice to serve.

We will prosecute every last one
of your platoon of bullies.

We will embarrass them,

we will tie up their promotions,
and we won't stop

until the whole Corps sees you
for the pigs that you are.

What she said.

Or... you can own what you did,

and maybe these cases go away.

Own what I did?

You ask me to cut a deal
and you're fired.

TREY: Article 128.
Assault.

You do a little time
and come out against

these Stolen Valor videos.

That doesn't sound too bad.

Bye.

You'll be fine,
Lieutenant.

We're swimming
in lawyers here.

Ike!

What's up?

Say hello to your newest client.

MAYA:
Ma'am, I have to insist

that any conversation with
Mr. Ahmadi take place

in the presence of counsel.

We're not talking
about citizenship, Captain.

I was giving
Mr. Ahmadi an order.

This is still
the Marine Corps.

What was that?

She, um...

she told me I'm getting
a new assignment.

What?

"You are to report without delay
to the United States Corps

Training and
Education Command."

I'm going to be serving under
a new commanding officer.

They're transferring me.

Sorry I couldn't call ahead.

I'm not supposed to be
telling you any of this yet.

What happened?
We...

used Navy guys. They have the
most experience with this stuff.

It didn't go as we hoped,
casualty-wise.

We lost people.

The hostages are safe, Glenn.

They're at Camp Dwyer.

Adam?

This footage was taken
by one of the SEALs

after they got home.

It's not supposed to be
outside the Pentagon.

You never saw it.

They're asleep.

Danny says
she wants you

to read her stories
every night from now on, so,

that should keep you
busy until she's 18.

You know, I'm feeling
a lot better, actually,

so you don't have to
be on red alert anymore.

I'll take help
wherever I can get it,

but it's basically
under control.

No, I know.

I, uh, mostly just
want to see how

Danny's show ends.

Come on.

You know, the show's better
from the couch, I promise.

I didn't come to watch TV.

Actually, tonight, I...

didn't even come by
to pitch in with chores.

Why did you come?

The other night you asked me

what I get out of this.

I didn't give you
a good answer.

I want a do-over.

It's not just that I promised
Jason I'd help.

That's how it started,
but it, um...

became something else
a while ago.

I was 23 when I got out of OCS.

Wh-- What did it matter
that everyone around me

was getting married?

I had forever.

Did my time overseas,

and then I took my wound,
and all of a sudden

the-the fighting part
of my life

was over.
Time to figure out

what's next.

Who cares if, if my friends
had kids now?

I'd catch up eventually.

And then law school,
and case after case,

and... learning that fighting
wasn't my only path

to a useful life.

I wouldn't do it
differently, but...

I did miss out on something.

This.

You, the kids, it...

it kinds of feels like it...

it fills in the missing lines.

Is that terrible?

Why would that
be terrible?

Jason.

My friend. Your husband.

What do you think
Jason would want for me?

Stay single for a respectable

nine months or so,

then open an online
dating account?

I guess not.

You're a good person, Alex.

You... take life the way
it actually happens,

and you look out
for your kids.

Every time I come here, I...

learn a little bit
about how to live.

Thanks.

You know what, I think I'm...

gonna head upstairs.

I'll see you when I see you,
Captain Abraham.
