Rabb:
IT'S ONLY THE GOD SQUAD,
ADMIRAL.

THEY HAVE THEIR HEAD
IN THE CLOUDS.

TEACH THEM
SOME RELIGION, CAPTAIN.

Roberts:
NO BAT... NO BAT...

SORRY, BUDRICK.

SIR...

[ laughs ]

Man: NO BATTER,
NO BATTER, NO BATTER.

[ cheering ]

GO!

[indistinct chatter]

GOOD CATCH, MAJOR.

WHOO!

MIGHTY MAC!

ALL RIGHT, ADMIRAL, ONE MORE.

NO PRESSURE NOW.
THERE'S NO PRESSURE.

COME ON, NILES.

SEND IT HEAVENWARD.

[ phone ringing ]TIME.

PETTY OFFICER TINER.Man: WHAT'S GOING ON, TINER?

YES, SIR.

CONFERENCE.

[indistinct chatter]

SIR, IT'S THE SECNAV.

YES, SIR, MR. SECRETARY?

YES, SIR.

[ sighs ]
YES, SIR. WILL DO.

LET'S BRING
IT IN.

WE'RE GOING TO HAVE
TO CALL IT, CHARLEY.

A JAPANESE CITIZEN
IN YOKOSUKA, JAPAN

HAS ACCUSED
A SURFACE WARFARE OFFICER

ABOARD THE CARRIER REPRISAL
OF RAPING HIS TEENAGE DAUGHTER.

THE NEWS CHANNELS
ARE ALL OVER IT.

MAJOR, YOU WERE
AT CAMP BUTLER

DURING THE OKINAWA CASE, RIGHT?

I WAS, SIR.GOOD.

THEN YOU AND LIEUTENANT ROBERTS
WILL ACCOMPANY COMMANDER RABB

TO THE SEVENTH FLEET
IMMEDIATELY.

AYE, SIR.

WHAT'S HIS SIDE
OF THE STORY, ADMIRAL?

HE'S DENYING IT.

WE'LL PRAY
FOR THEM BOTH, A.J.

Man:
I ASSUME YOU'RE AWARE

OF THE CHARACTERISTICS
OF AN ACTIVE VOLCANO.

JAPAN HAS 58 OF THEM.

THIS IS ALL YOU
NEED TO KNOW

ABOUT THE GENERAL MAKEUP
OF THE POPULATION--

CALM EXTERIOR,
FIRE IN THE BELLY.

THINGS HEATING UP, SIR?

A JUNIOR OFFICER
WITH A WIGGLE IN HIS PANTS

IS ABOUT TO COMPROMISE
50 YEARS OF U.S./JAPANESE
MILITARY COOPERATION.

ARE YOU ASSUMING GUILT, SIR?

I'M ASSUMING
A DAMN GOOD DEFENSE, COMMANDER.

THE GIRL IS STILL
IN HIGH SCHOOL.

OUR STATUS OF FORCES AGREEMENT
WITHSTOOD THE RAPE IN OKINAWA

BUT IF THE AUTHORITIES
CAN MAKE US LOOK LIKE A FLEET

OF CHILD SEX OFFENDERS,
THE LOCAL POLICE
WILL BE COLLARING SAILORS

FOR SLURPING THEIR NOODLES.

Rabb:
WELL, SIR, AT THIS POINT,
IT IS JUST AN ACCUSATION.

THE ENSIGN HAS NOT BEEN
OFFICIALLY CHARGED.

IF HE IS, HE'LL BE ASSIGNED
A JAPANESE ATTORNEY, ADMIRAL.

OUR FUNCTION IS TO OBSERVE
AND ENSURE DUE PROCESS.

HAVE I NOT MADE CLEAR
WHAT'S AT STAKE?

Rabb:
SIR, WE WILL, OF COURSE,
ADVISE AND CONSULT

TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED.

THE QUESTION, ADMIRAL,
IS WHETHER POLITICAL PRESSURE...

HELPS OR HINDERS
OUR ABILITY TO DO SO.

COMMANDER, YOU ARE
LEADING THIS TEAM

BECAUSE OF THE WAY
YOU JUGGLED THE POLITICS

ON THE SIGONELLA
HELICOPTER TRAGEDY.

YOU DID AN ACE
OF A JOB ON THIN ICE.

WELL, SIR, I THINK
CONGRESSWOMAN LATHAM

DESERVES THE CREDIT
FOR THE POLITICS.

ARE YOU IMPLYING THAT I'VE
UNDERESTIMATED YOUR TALENT?

NO, SIR.

THEN LET ME MAKE A SUGGESTION:

STOP WHINING AND START SKATING.

[ ship whistle blows ]

Mackenzie:
YOU LIT UP A TWO-STAR
AND YOU GOT BURNED, HARM.

JUST LET IT GO.
Rabb: I'M TELLING YOU, MAC,
FESSENDEN'S TROUBLE.

HE HAS TOO MUCH
ON THE LINE.

IF WE'RE NOT PROACTIVE
IN THIS CASE

WE'RE GOING TO HAVE
TO PEEL HIM OFF OUR BUTTS
JUST TO SIT DOWN.

WELL, HE RECENTLY
GOT BUMPED SIDEWAYS

FROM THE STAFF
OVER AT CINCPAC, MA'AM.
LOOSE LIPS.

SEE? ONE MORE MISSTEP
AND HIS CAREER
WILL BE IN A FREE-FALL.

AT EASE, ENSIGN.

LIEUTENANT
COMMANDER RABB.

THIS IS MAJOR MACKENZIE,
LIEUTENANT, J.G., ROBERTS.

SO HOW ARE YOU
HOLDING UP?

WELL, I'M WAITING
FOR YOU TO PINCH ME, SIR

SO I CAN... WAKE UP
AND RETURN TO MY LIFE.

AND QUITE A LIFE
IT'S BEEN, ENSIGN.

ACADEMY GRAD,
OLMSTED SCHOLAR.

O.O.D. UNDERWAY
IN LESS THAN A YEAR.

Rabb:
YOU HAVE A FAN
CLUB, ENSIGN.

YOUR C.O. THINKS
YOU'RE EXEMPLARY.

HIS EXACT WORDS WERE, UH...

"ENSIGN GUITRY'S
UNCOMMONLY LOYAL."

FEMALE PERSONNEL
DESCRIBE YOU
AS SENSITIVE.

THEY'RE BEING KIND, SIR.

DID YOU RAPE THIS GIRL?

NO, SIR.

WHY DOES HER FATHER
THINK YOU DID?

THE ONLY THING THAT MAKES SENSE
TO ME IS MISTAKEN IDENTITY.

DO YOU KNOW HER?

NO.

WHERE WERE YOU
THE NIGHT OF THE INCIDENT?

I WAS, UH...
I WAS ON LIBERTY, MA'AM.

I LIKE TO, UH, WALK THE TOWN.

IT... HELPS ME CLEAR MY HEAD.

DO YOU HAVE ANY WITNESSES
TO CORROBORATE YOUR WHEREABOUTS?

UM... I'M-I'M AFRAID
I WAS ALONE.

I'VE-I'VE BEEN TOLD

JAPANESE POLICE ARE KNOWN
FOR FORCING CONFESSIONS.

SHOULD I BE WORRIED?

WE INTEND TO KEEP YOU ON BOARD.

IF THE LOCAL AUTHORITIES
WANT YOU,

THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE
TO PRESENT FORMAL CHARGES.

THIS IS AN INDICTMENT
FOR THE RAPE
OF JUN HIGASHIMORI.

BASED ON WHAT EVIDENCE?

MR. HIGASHIMORI
PICKED ENSIGN GUITRY'S FACE
OUT OF THE SHIP'S CRUISEBOOK.

I REPEAT-- EVIDENCE.

HE FOUND A CAP

INSCRIBED WITH THE LEGEND--
" U.S.S. REPRISAL."

WAS THERE A NAME OR A RANK
EMBROIDERED ON THIS CAP?

DO YOU HAVE A HAIR SAMPLE?

WE ARE AWAITING THE LAB RESULTS.

MR. TAKAHASHI, DID THE VICTIM
IDENTIFY HER ASSAILANT?

THE GIRL WAS IN SHOCK
AT THE TIME.

SHE HAS NO MEMORY
OF THE INCIDENT.

WHAT ABOUT A SEMEN ANALYSIS?

THE ASSAILANT
APPARENTLY USED A CONDOM.

I'M SURPRISED AT YOU, COUNSELOR.

AS THE PROSECUTING ATTORNEY,
THIS IS WHAT YOU BRING US?

YOUR INDICTMENT HAS NO LEGS.
YOU'RE WASTING OUR TIME.

MY FRIENDS... THE ONLY REASON
I'M TALKING TO YOU

IS BECAUSE
A JAPANESE DEFENSE ATTORNEY

HAS NOT YET BEEN ASSIGNED
TO YOUR CASE.

I AM NOT OBLIGATED
TO PROVE THE LEGITIMACY
OF THE INDICTMENT.

MY JURISDICTION
IS AUTHORIZED

BY ARTICLE 17,
PARAGRAPH FIVE-C

OF THE 1960
STATUS OF FORCES AGREEMENT.

ENSIGN GUITRY BELONGS TO US.

WE REQUEST A WAIVER.

I'M SORRY,
BUT THE MINISTER OF JUSTICE

HAS INSTRUCTED ME
TO REJECT A WAIVER IN THIS CASE.

GUITRY STAYS PUT.
HARM...

YOU CAN HAVE HIM
A FEW HOURS A DAY
FOR QUESTIONING.

WE'LL GIVE HIM UP
UPON CONVICTION ONLY.

HOW MANY HOURS
DID YOU HAVE IN MIND?

THREE.

[ dramatic music plays ]

YOU'RE A STRONG
NEGOTIATOR.

GOOD DAY.

WHAT THE HELL DID YOU SAY
TO THAT LAWYER, RABB?

EXCUSE ME, SIR?

THE COMMANDER
OF THE SEVENTH FLEET
HAS JUST INFORMED ME

THAT THE JAPANESE PRIME MINISTER
IS ACCUSING YOU

OF BLOCKING THEIR ACCESS
TO ENSIGN GUITRY.

ADMIRAL,
THE PROSECUTING ATTORNEY
AGREED TO OUR DEMANDS.

THE PROSECUTING ATTORNEY
WAS THE ONE WHO APPEALED
TO THE PRIME MINISTER.

IN ORDER TO PROTECT
OUR STATUS OF FORCES AGREEMENT

THE AMERICAN AMBASSADOR
IS GENUFLECTING.

ENSIGN GUITRY
IS BEING MOVED AS WE SPEAK.

ADMIRAL, THEY HAVE A WEAK CASE.

THEY DID...
UNTIL YOU GAVE THE AUTHORITIES

A REASON TO DOUBT OUR INTEGRITY.

Rabb:
YOU WERE THERE, MAC.

DID TAKAHASHI EVEN INDICATE
THERE WAS A PROBLEM?
NO. HE SHOOK MY HAND.

HE WAS SMILING.
HE-HE COMPLIMENTED ME.

JAPANESE MALES RARELY ADMIT
WHAT THEY'RE THINKING, HARM.

HE PROBABLY THOUGHT
HE WAS BEING POLITE
IN NOT REVEALING HIS PLAN.

WELL, YOU COULD'VE
WARNED ME.

I DID.
YOU WERE TOO BUSY TRYING

TO NEGOTIATE HIM
OUT OF WHAT WERE
ALREADY HIS RIGHTS.

AH! HERE IT IS.

KICK ME NEXT TIME.

[ speaking Japanese ]

JAG CORPS?

YES.YEAH.

HIRO KITAMURA.

PLEASE, COME IN.

[ speaking Japanese ]

PLEASE. [ laughs ]

PLEASE.THANK YOU.

UH, SIT.

THANK YOU.

UH, SOMETHING TO DRINK?

I HAVE COCOA.

[ laughs ]
NO, THANK YOU.

NO, THANKS.

OH. I WENT
TO LAW SCHOOL AT YALE...
SAME AS YOUR PRESIDENT.

HMM.[ chuckles politely ]

THE PROSECUTION'S CASE IS WEAK.

I BELIEVE THEY HAVE ACCUSED
THE WRONG MAN.

UH... MR. KITAMURA, EXCUSE ME
FOR ASKING, SIR, BUT, UH...

WHAT KIND OF LAW
DO YOU PRACTICE HERE?

OH, I'M WHAT YOU CALL
IN THE STATES
A PERSONAL INJURY LAWYER.

HAVE YOU EVER TRIED
A CRIMINAL CASE?

CRIMINAL NEGLIGENCE.

HMM. I'M AFRAID
THERE'S BEEN A MISTAKE, SIR.

YOUR QUALIFICATIONS AREN'T...
I PETITIONED FOR THIS.

WHY WOULD THEY GIVE IT
TO SOMEONE
WITHOUT ANY PRIOR EXPERIENCE?

BECAUSE I AM THE ONLY ONE
WHO WANTED IT.

YOU HAVE
AN ADVANTAGE WITH ME.

SINCE BOTH SIDES
SPEAK ENGLISH

I CAN HAVE THE TRIAL
CONDUCTED IN YOUR LANGUAGE.

BECAUSE THE COURT WANTS
TO LOOK FAIR-MINDED

THEY WILL BE
MORE WILLING TO DO THIS.

JUN HIGASHIMORI'S FATHER,
ICHIRO

HAS BEEN UNEMPLOYED
MOST OF HIS LIFE.

UH, THIS IS BECAUSE
OF A DEFORMED LEG AT BIRTH.

HIS PARENTS WERE POISONED
AT NAGASAKI
BY ATOMIC RADIATION.

YOU SEE,

HE BLAMES
THE AMERICAN MILITARY
FOR HIS TROUBLES.

LIEUTENANT GUITRY
HAS BLOND HAIR
AND BLUE EYES--

AN EXCELLENT TARGET
FOR MR. HIGASHIMORI'S HATRED.

WHAT DO YOU GET OUT OF THIS?

I SUPPORT THE U.S. BASES.

THEY'RE GOOD
FOR LOCAL ECONOMY.

UH... THEY PROTECT US
FROM THOSE NORTH KOREANS
[ laughs ]

AND, UH...

I DON'T WANT MY COUNTRY
TO EVER START A WAR AGAIN.

I'LL HAVE SOME OF THAT COCOA.

ME, TOO.

OKAY.

[ indistinct chatter ]

THERE IS ADMIRAL FESSENDEN.

YOU READY?
TO LEAVE.

HMM. HE'S JUST GOING
TO TAKE US AROUND

INTRODUCE US
TO THE MINISTER OF JUSTICE

AND SOME OTHER OFFICIALS.

ALL WE HAVE TO DO
IS MAKE NICE.

FESSENDEN:
LOOK, I'LL BE
THE FIRST TO ADMIT IT.

THE LOCALS
HAVE LEGITIMATE GRIPES.

THEY HAVE TO DEAL
WITH NIGHT TRAINING FLIGHTS

RESIDUAL TOXINS
FROM BOMBING RANGES
Rabb: EVENING, ADMIRAL.

DOCKSIDE POLLUTION.

LET ME INTRODUCE YOU
TO THE JAG REPS.

THIS IS MEG WINTERS.

SOMMERS.

OH, IT'S A PLEASURE
TO MEET YOU, MA'AM.

SHE'S COVERING
THE PROCEEDINGS

FOR ONE OF OUR
ESTEEMED WIRE SERVICES.

I'VE HEARD THINGS
ARE GETTING SLIPPERY.

IS YOUR TEAM CONFIDENT
ENSIGN GUITRY
WILL RECEIVE A FAIR TRIAL?

WE'RE CONFIDENT
WE CAN INFLUENCE ONE.

HOW WILL THIS PLAY
IN POLITICAL TERMS?

WE'RE AT A CRUCIAL JUNCTURE

IN U.S./JAPANESE RELATIONS,
MISS WINTERS.

IF IT WASN'T FOR OKINAWA,
THIS WOULD BE
JUST ANOTHER RAPE CASE.

SORRY?

MY OFFICE RECEIVES
ALLEGATIONS OF SEXUAL
ASSAULT ALMOST WEEKLY.

Mackenzie: I BELIEVE
THE TERM THE ADMIRAL USED
WAS "ALLEGATIONS."

CORRECT.

THEY'RE ALMOST ALWAYS
FROM UNRELIABLE SOURCES.

FOR EXAMPLE?

WHAT YOU'D EXPECT...

HOOKERS AND THE LIKE.

UM, MA'AM... IF YOU'LL EXCUSE US

WE NEED TO SPEAK
TO THE ADMIRAL PRIVATELY.

IT'S SOMEWHAT SENSITIVE.

SIR, IF YOU WOULD...

GOOD MOVE.

SHE WAS ANNOYING
THE CRAP OUT OF ME.

SIR, LET ME GET
THAT DRINK FOR YOU.
IT'S EMPTY.

THANKS.

UH, SIR, HAVE YOU
TRIED THE COFFEE?

NO. IS IT GOOD?

[INAUDIBLE] INDICATED THAT
SEXUAL ASSAULTS

ON JAPANESE WOMAN
BY AMERICAN SERVICE MAN

ACTUALLY HAPPENED
ON A REGULAR BASIS.

BUT IN GENERAL IT'S [INAUDIBLE]

OH, THIS IS UGLY.

"APPARENTLY CLASS
STATUS PLAYS A ROLE

IN HOW SUPERVISING
OFFICERS RESPOND
TO CHARGES."

OUCH.
YEAH. "THE ADMIRAL
HAS SINCE APOLOGIZED

"FOR HIS REMARKS,
EXPLAINING HE WAS

"SIMPLY TRYING
TO DESCRIBE A
SOCIAL PHENOMENON

"THAT HAPPENS IN
AND AROUND U.S. MILITARY
BASES EVERYWHERE."

WHAT WAS HE THINKING?

THERE'S NOT AN INSTITUTION
ON THE PLANET
THAT DOESN'T DEAL

WITH UNSUBSTANTIATED
ALLEGATIONS.

THAT'S ALL HE HAD TO SAY.

THE ADMIRAL COULD MAKE
THE CONSTITUTION
SOUND OFFENSIVE.

IS HE EXPECTED
IN COURT TODAY, SIR?

NOT UNLESS HE
HAS A DEATH WISH.

Kitamura:
THIS IS GOING
TO BE INTERESTING.

SORRY ABOUT THIS,
COUNSELOR.

IT WAS OUT
OF OUR CONTROL.

I JUST FOUND OUT
I WON'T BE ALLOWED

TO QUESTION THE GIRL.

THE PANEL AGREES
WITH THE PROSECUTION'S CLAIM

THAT IT WILL ONLY ADD
TO HER TRAUMA.

[ sighs ]

HOW ARE THE POLICE
TREATING YOU, ENSIGN?

NOT TOO WELL, SIR.

Kitamura: THEY WOULDN'T LET HIM
STRETCH HIS LEGS.

HE SAT IN A CHAIR
FOR 36 HOURS.

I HAVE ALREADY
FILED A PROTEST.

HAVE THEY TRIED
TO FORCE YOU
TO ADMIT ANYTHING?

NO, MA'AM.

WELL, UH...

YOU HANG IN THERE, SAILOR.
THESE ARE BUMPS ON THE ROAD.
WE'RE ON TOP OF IT.

IT'S GOOD TO HEAR, SIR.

WE BETTER SIT DOWN.

[ dramatic music plays ]

[ indistinct chatter ]

Takahashi: AND WE WILL PROVE
THAT ON THE NIGHT IN QUESTION,
ENSIGN TERRY GUITRY

A SURFACE WARFARE OFFICER ABOARD
THE CARRIER U.S.S. REPRISAL

FOLLOWED THE VICTIM,
17-YEAR-OLD JUN HIGASHIMORI

TO THE PAVILION IN SAGAMI BAY

PULLED HER INTO THE BUSHES
AND RAPED HER.

[ sighs ]

ENSIGN GUITRY HAS NEVER
MET JUN HIGASHIMORI

AND WAS NOWHERE NEAR HER
THE NIGHT OF HER ASSAULT.

HE IS A VICTIM
OF FALSE IDENTIFICATION.

THANK YOU.

I DON'T WORK
BECAUSE OF MY LEG

SO MY DAUGHTER,
SHE TAKE A JOB

AT DRESS SHOP
AFTER SCHOOL.

Takahashi:
WHAT HAPPENED
ON THE DAY IN QUESTION?

ONE OF HER TEACHER
CALLED TO SAY

HER SCHOOLWORK BAD

SO I GO TO SHOP TO TAKE HER HOME
SO SHE CAN DO HER LESSONS.

WHEN I GET THERE...

THEY SAY SHE ALREADY GONE.

WELL, WHAT DID YOU DO?

I WALK TO THE PAVILION
IN SAGAMI BAY.

SHE GOES THERE
TO THINK.

TELL US WHAT YOU SAW.

I SHINED MY FLASHLIGHT.

I FIND A MAN ON TOP OF HER.

Takahashi:
AND WHAT DID HE DO?

HE JUMP UP.

I WRESTLE WITH HIM,
BUT HE ESCAPE.

DID HE LEAVE THIS BEHIND?

YES.

IS THE MAN YOU SAW THAT NIGHT
WITH YOUR DAUGHTER

IN THE COURTROOM TODAY?

THANK YOU.

SIR, WHY DID YOU HAVE
YOUR FLASHLIGHT WITH YOU?

IT WAS DARK.

HARD TO SEE.

YES.

YOU SAID HE JUMPED UP
RIGHT AWAY.

HE DID.

Kitamura: AND WHEN YOU
WRESTLED WITH HIM

WHAT HAPPENED
TO THE FLASHLIGHT?

I DROPPED IT.

HEY, WHAT ABOUT THE BALL CAP?
PROSECUTION HAVEN'T PROVIDED
HAIR SAMPLES.

THEY MUST NOT HAVE THEM.
LET IT GO.

WHAT?
IT IS BEST.

[ inaudible ] FOR THE DEFENSE.

NO, YOUR HONOR.
I WOULD LIKE
TO POINT OUT

THE PROSECUTION
HAS NOT PROVIDED

A LINK BETWEEN THE HAT
AND THE SUSPECT.

NOW, THAT BALL CAP
COULD HAVE BELONGED TO ANY

OF OVER 2,000 SERVICEMEN
ASSIGNED TO THE REPRISAL.

THEN YOU ARE SUPPORTING
OUR CONTENTION

THAT A UNITED STATES SAILOR
WAS RESPONSIBLE

FOR THE RAPE OF JUN HIGASHIMORI?

WELL, I--Judge: SIT DOWN, SIR!

YOU HAVE NO PRIVILEGES
IN THIS COURTROOM.

IF YOU CHOOSE TO SPEAK OUT
AGAIN, WE WILL HAVE YOU REMOVED.

IT'S AN IMPORTANT POINT.

DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND?
IT IS THE UNITED STATES NAVY,

NOT ENSIGN GUITRY
WHO IS ON TRIAL HERE.

YOU JUST
GAVE THEM A GIFT.

[ sighs ]

I FIGURED IT WAS WORTH
THE BREAK-IN PROTOCOL.
WHAT DO YOU THINK?

[ kicks ]OUCH.

MAY I CONTINUE?

CONTINUE.

SIR...

WHAT HAPPENED TO YOUR PARENTS?

THEY DIE YOUNG.

OF WHAT?

THE ATOMIC BOMB
MAKE THEM SICK.

IS YOUR LEG DEFORMED
AS A RESULT?

YES.

DO YOU HATE THE UNITED STATES

FOR WHAT IT DID TO YOU
AND YOUR PARENTS?

NO.

IS THAT YOUR NAME?

MM-HMM.

THIS IS A LIST
OF MEMBERS

OF AN ORGANIZATION CALLED
THE BURNING EAGLE.

THEIR WEB SITE
DESCRIBES THEM

AS "COMMITTED TO THE REMOVAL
OF ALL U.S. BUSINESS

AND MILITARY ACTIVITY
FROM JAPAN AND HER TERRITORIES."

YOU ARE A MEMBER, AREN'T YOU?

I GO TO SOME MEETINGS.

THANK YOU.

I WOULD LIKE TO PRESENT
EXHIBIT NUMBER FIVE

THIS SECURITY VIDEO
RECENTLY PRESENTED TO ME

BY THE OWNER
OF THE OMAMORI NOODLE HOUSE.

YOUR HONOR...

I PROTEST.
I HAVE NOT SEEN THIS EVIDENCE.

Judge: OVERRULED.
PLAY THE TAPE.

Takahashi:
IT WAS TAKEN THE NIGHT
OF THE INCIDENT.

YOU CAN SEE JUN HIGASHIMORI
SEATED AT THE LEFT

OF THE COUNTER.

SHE IS TALKING TO A MAN
WEARING A SHIP'S CAP.

ENSIGN GUITRY,

WOULD YOU PUT IT ON, PLEASE?

[ suspenseful music plays]

HOW COULD YOU LIE TO ME?
YOU MADE ME LOOK STUPID
IN FRONT OF MY PEERS.

I'M SORRY, SIR.NO ONE WILL
RESPECT ME ANYMORE.

WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL US, ENSIGN?
BECAUSE I WAS AFRAID, SIR.

THERE'S BEEN SO MUCH PRESSURE
FROM THE PRESS TO CONVICT.

I THOUGHT IF IT CAME OUT,
IT WOULD SEAL MY FATE.

WELL, THAT'S WHAT WILL HAPPEN

NOW THAT THEY KNOW
THEY CANNOT TRUST YOUR WORD.

[ sighing ]

I HAD NOTHING BUT RESPECT
FOR AMERICANS

UNTIL I FOUND OUT THEY WERE
FOOLS, LIARS AND POTHEADS.

EASY, COUNSELOR.

I QUIT.

[ door slams ]

WHY, I THINK
HE MEANT "HOTHEADS," SIR.

Guitry: I DID NOT RAPE
THIS GIRL.

I WAS JUST MAKING CONVERSATION
AT A NOODLE HOUSE.

THE VIDEO HAS
YOU LEAVING TOGETHER.

I WALKED HER OUT.

WE SAID GOOD-BYE
ON THE STREETS

AND WE WENT
IN OPPOSITE DIRECTIONS.

PROSECUTION WILL COUNTER
THAT YOU DOUBLED BACK
AND FOLLOWED HER.

MA'AM, I HAVE NOTHING
BUT RESPECT FOR WOMEN.

I WOULD NEVER, EVER
FORCE MYSELF ON SOMEONE.

WHO INITIATED THE CONVERSATION?

SHE SAID I LOOKED LIKE A SURFER.WHAT ELSE DID YOU TALK ABOUT?

STUFF.

UM, YOU KNOW

LIKE HER FAVORITE ROCK STARS,
THAT KIND OF THING.

ENSIGN, START AT THE BEGINNING
AND TELL US EVERYTHING.

[ sighing ]

YOU KNOW IT ALL NOW, SIR.

[ birds chirping ]

[ speaking in Japanese ]

HOW DID YOU FIND ME?

WELL, THIS PLACE
IS DIRECTLY

ACROSS THE STREET
FROM THE COURTHOUSE

AND YOU'RE THE ONLY ONE
IN IT.

LOOK, YOU KNOW
YOU WANT TO DO THIS.

IT'S A HIGH-PROFILE CASE.

IT'LL TAKE YOUR CAREER
TO ANOTHER LEVEL.

HE HAS NO CHANCE NOW.

COME ON, COUNSELOR.

ALL WE HAVE TO DO
IS PROVIDE REASONABLE DOUBT.

IT WORKS DIFFERENT HERE.

WE'RE GONNA NEED
TO COME UP WITH SOMETHING SOLID
LIKE THE ACTUAL PERPETRATOR.

OKAY. WE'LL DO IT.
WE HAVE ACCESS
TO THE SHIP'S PERSONNEL.

ALL 4,000 OF THEM.

ACTUALLY, IT'S 4,211.

I'M SURE THEY'RE NOT ALL BLONDE
WITH BLUE EYES.

THE ASSAILANT WAS
WEARING THE BALL CAP

WHEN HE WAS FIRST DISCOVERED.

THAT'S WHY THE PROSECUTION
HASN'T BROUGHT IT UP.

WE DON'T KNOW HE WAS BLONDE.

YOU HAVE TO TALK TO THE ONES
WITH BROWN HAIR, TOO.

FINE. WHATEVER.
THE POINT IS

YOU'RE A GOOD ATTORNEY, HIRO,

AND WE NEED YOU.

YOU NEED ME BECAUSE I AM
THE ONLY ATTORNEY YOU HAVE.

THAT'S NOT TRUE.

WE'VE TALKED IT OVER.
WE ALL AGREE
YOUR APPROACH IS RIGHT.

I CANNOT DO IT ALONE.

HELL, WE'LL INTERVIEW
EVERY WHITE MALE IN THE CITY
IF WE HAVE TO.

I'LL DRINK TO THAT.

[ laughing ]

Roberts: OF THE 2,611 MEN
ON LIBERTY THAT NIGHT,

WE'VE RULED OUT 1,805

AND INTERVIEWED
A TOTAL OF 49.

IT'S STILL ONE HELL
OF A HAYSTACK.
WE'RE GOING TO NEED HELP.

SIR, ALL I CAN TELL YOU
IS KEEP ASKING QUESTIONS.

YOU KNOW
WHAT I'M THINKING?

I'M THINKING SOMEBODY ELSE
FOLLOWED JUN AFTER YOU LEFT HER.

DID YOU NOTICE ANYONE
STANDING AROUND AT THE TIME?

NO, SIR.

WHAT ABOUT INSIDE...

YOU KNOW?

MAYBE. I DON'T...
I DON'T REMEMBER
ANYONE IN PARTICULAR.

I HOPE YOU BROUGHT
GOOD NEWS, COUNSELOR.

MR. TAKAHASHI
HAS PROPOSED A SETTLEMENT.

HE WILL ASK THE COURT
TO REDUCE
THE SENTENCE IF ENSIGN GUITRY

ADMITS HIS GUILT,
SHOWS HE'S REPENTED

AND GIVES A PUBLIC APOLOGY
IN COURT.

THAT'S PRETTY MUCH
WHAT HAPPENED IN OKINAWA.

Rabb: HIRO, THE ONLY REASON
THEY CAME TO US FOR NEGOTIATION

IS BECAUSE THE PROSECUTION
HAS NO DIRECT EVIDENCE.

YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND.

THE WORD IS,
WE ARE GOING TO LOSE.

THE PROSECUTION
IS ALLOWING US
TO SAVE FACE.

I THINK WE SHOULD
CONSIDER THIS.

WHAT? YOU'RE SUGGESTING WE FOLD?

WE NEED BETTER CARDS.

MAC, WE'RE AT THE BEGINNING
OF THE INVESTIGATION.

Kitamura: THE DECISION
HAS TO BE MADE
WITHIN 48 HOURS.

ENSIGN?

[ sighs ]

I'M SORRY, MA'AM.
I-I DON'T FEEL THAT
I SHOULD GO TO PRISON

FOR SOMETHING I DIDN'T DO.

NOW, THAT MAKES SENSE TO ME.

Kitamura:
IF WE LOSE,

MR. TAKAHASHI WILL PLEAD
FOR MAXIMUM PUNISHMENT.

WHICH IS?

LIFE IMPRISONMENT.

[ gloomy music plays ]

IT'S A RISK, ENSIGN.

IT WOULDN'T BE
THE FIRST TIME, SIR.

I SAY WE WAIT TO HEAR WHAT
THE BRASS HAS TO SAY ON THIS.

Rabb: THANKS FOR AGREEING
TO SEE US, ADMIRAL.

TAKE A SEAT, PLEASE.

YES, SIR.

SIR, WE'RE AT A CROSSROADS.

MAJOR, HAVE YOU EVER HEARD
OF COLONEL MARION TRUESDALE?

YES, SIR. HE WAS THE FIRST
MARINE JUDGE ADVOCATE GENERAL.

A MODEL CAREER--

PURPLE HEART,
THE WHOLE PACKAGE.

ADMIRAL CROWE,
FORMER CHAIRMAN
OF THE JOINT CHIEFS

ONCE INTRODUCED US.

I ASKED HIM WHEN WAS
THE BEST TIME TO GIVE IT UP.

HIS ANSWER WAS, "YOU'LL KNOW...
OR THEY'LL KNOW."

[ laughs ]

I'VE BEEN ASKED TO RETIRE.

WE'RE SORRY, SIR.

I'VE CROSSED THE LINE
MANY TIMES IN MY CAREER

BUT ALWAYS WITH A SENSE
OF WHERE IT WAS.

THIS TIME I TRIPPED
OVER THE DAMN THING.

YOU WERE CAUGHT IN THE MIDDLE
OF SOMETHING BIGGER
THAN ALL OF US.

MY WIFE...

KNEW THE TRUTH ABOUT ME.

ON HER DEATHBED,
SHE PULLED ME CLOSE AND SAID

"DON'T DRINK, DON'T SWEAR

AND TRY TO KEEP
YOUR MOUTH SHUT."

THE PROBLEM IS,
WITHOUT HER IN MY LIFE

I HAVE NO WILL
TO CONTROL MYSELF.

YOU DESERVE AN APOLOGY
FROM ME, COMMANDER.

I HAD NO RIGHT
TO ASK OF YOU

WHAT I WAS INCAPABLE
OF HANDLING MYSELF.

[ sighs ]

WELL, SIR, AS IT TURNS OUT,
YOU WERE RIGHT.

THE POLITICS
ARE UNAVOIDABLE.

PROSECUTION WANTS TO NEGOTIATE
A PLEA, ADMIRAL.

MAKES SENSE FROM
THEIR POINT OF VIEW.

IT'S THE CRIME ITSELF,
NOT THE SIZE
THAT GIVES THEM WHAT THEY NEED.

YOU HAVE AN OPINION
ON THE MATTER, SIR?

THIS WOULD BE
MY LAST OFFICIAL ACT.

YOU PROTECT
THAT BOY'S INNOCENCE.

YES, SIR.

THAT'S ALL HE'S GOT.

ONCE IT'S TAKEN FROM HIM,
HE'S JUST ONE MORE
SORRY SON OF A BITCH.

SIR, MAY I MAKE AN OBSERVATION?

WHY NOT?

MOST OF THE SENIOR OFFICERS
I MEET, SIR

ARE MORE LIKELY
TO STAY OUT OF TROUBLE

THAN DO SOMETHING GREAT.

YOU'RE A PASSIONATE MAN,
ADMIRAL.

DESPITE OUR SCRAPE

I ADMIRE YOUR FIRE, SIR.

I BELIEVE IT'S OUT.

WELL, ADMIRAL,
ONLY GENERALS FADE AWAY, SIR.

DON'T WORRY,
COMMANDER.

I INTEND TO MOVE ON.

GOOD LUCK, SIR.

DISMISSED.

AYE, AYE, SIR.

[ dramatic music plays ]

[ door closes ]

[ gun fires ]

Man:
ATTEN-HUT!

[ shouting orders ]

ORDER... HUH!

Roberts:
I JUST DON'T GET IT, SIR.

THE ADMIRAL DIDN'T
SEEM THE TYPE TO
TAKE HIS OWN LIFE.

WELL, HE WAS
AN OFFICER DISHONORED,
STRIPPED OF PURPOSE.

FOR A MAN WITH HIS SIZE EGO,
THIS MUST HAVE CUT DEEP, EH?

I ASSUME IT WAS A WAY
OF SAVING FACE?

AN ACT OF SEPPUKU, SIR.

EXACTLY.
IT WAS VERY JAPANESE
OF HIM, MAJOR.

WENT OUT A WARRIOR IN UNIFORM
WITH HIS OWN WEAPON.

HMM... OF COURSE,
THAT DIDN'T EXCUSE IT

AND MAKE IT
ANY LESS DEPRESSING.

CAN I ASK WHY YOU'RE
HERE, ADMIRAL?

THERE'S SOME CONCERN
IN WASHINGTON
ABOUT WHAT'S GOING ON

ESPECIALLY SINCE
THE JAPANESE PRESS

IS IMPLYING THE ADMIRAL'S
SUICIDE IS THE RESULT

OF THE EMBARRASSMENT
HE FELT OVER THE INCIDENT.

BAD P.R. EQUALS
YOURS TRULY ON A REDEYE.

YOU HERE TO SUPERVISE, SIR?

THE WHITE HOUSE
JUST WANTS ASSURANCES

THAT EVERYTHING'S
UNDER CONTROL.

SO, WHERE ARE YOU?

Mackenzie:
THE PROSECUTION'S
PROPOSED A DEAL, SIR--

A LESSER CHARGE
FOR A GUILTY PLEA.

HAVE YOU RESPONDED
YET?

WE'RE GOING TO TURN
THEM DOWN, SIR.

Chegwidden:
OKAY. LET ME SEE
IF I HAVE THIS RIGHT--

IT'S WORD AGAINST WORD,
THEY HAVE AN EYEWITNESS.

WE'RE CLAIMING FALSE I.D.

Mackenzie:
YES, SIR.

YOU'LL LOSE.

SIR, WE'RE TRYING
TO TRACK DOWN THE ASSAILANT.

WHAT ABOUT, UH,
DISCREDITING THE FATHER?

MR. KITAMURA'S TRIED, SIR.
WE'RE WAY PAST THAT.

WE'VE BEEN INTERVIEWING
THE CREW OF THE REPRISAL.

I WOULD ENCOURAGE HIM
TO CONTINUE
WITH THE FIRST CHOICE.

WHY?
IT'S A SAVVIER
SOLUTION.

BY THAT,
I ASSUME YOU MEAN

THAT FINDING THE SAILOR
WHO ACTUALLY RAPED THE GIRL

WOULD NOT SOLVE
WASHINGTON'S CONCERNS.

I EXPECT YOU TO ASSUME
NOTHING, COMMANDER

BUT YOUR
RESPONSIBILITY.

ADMIRAL,
HOW RESPONSIBLE IS IT

TO LET
THE PERPETRATOR SLIDE, SIR?

YOUR JOB IS TO
DEFEND THIS MAN,
NOT SOLVE A CRIME.

I THINK SOLVING THE CRIME
IS HIS BEST DEFENSE.

AND I DISAGREE. NOW, STAND DOWN

AND LET'S FIGURE A WAY
TO WEAKEN THE FATHER'S STORY.

ADMIRAL, I THINK THIS QUALIFIES
AS SUPERVISION.

YOU HAVE A PROBLEM, COMMANDER?

WELL, SIR, FOR THE FIRST TIME
IT FEELS LIKE
YOU DON'T TRUST US.

THE ISSUE IS NOT ABOUT TRUST,
BUT RESPONSIBILITY
AND I'M TAKING IT.

WHY, SIR?BECAUSE I CAN!

[ gloomy music playing ]

ALL RIGHT. FINE.

GO TRY AND FIND
YOUR MAN.

THANK YOU, SIR.

LIEUTENANT COMMANDER RABB.

AS YOU KNOW,
I'VE ALWAYS BEEN OPEN

TO RESPECTFUL DISAGREEMENT

BUT YOU EVER BADGER ME
LIKE THAT AGAIN

I'LL SUPERVISE YOUR ASS
RIGHT OUT OF WASHINGTON.

YES, SIR.

GOOD LUCK.

YOU OKAY?

YEAH. I'M FINE.

LOOK, I SAY
WE FORGET ABOUT

SHIFTING THROUGH
THE SHIP'S PERSONNEL.

WE'RE RUNNING
LOW ON TIME.

WELL, WHAT'S
THE ALTERNATIVE?

I'D LIKE TO, UH,
TAKE ANOTHER LOOK

AT THAT SECURITY VIDEO

SEE IF THERE'S ANYONE ELSE
IN THAT NOODLE HOUSE
WEARING A BALL CAP.

Rabb:
SEAMAN LAFFERTY,
THIS IS A STILL PHOTO

TAKEN FROM THE SECURITY CAMERA
AT THE OMAMORI NOODLE HOUSE

ON THE NIGHT JUN HIGASHIMORI
WAS RAPED.

IT'S YOU, ISN'T IT?

YES, SIR.

Mackenzie:
DO YOU KNOW
ENSIGN GUITRY?

NO, MA'AM.

BUT YOU KNOW
ABOUT THE CASE?

I HAVEN'T BEEN PAYING
MUCH ATTENTION TO IT,
ACTUALLY.

WHAT DOYOU KNOW
ABOUT THE CASE, SEAMAN?

ONLY THAT THERE WAS AN OFFICER

IN THE PLACE,

BUT, UH, I DIDN'T HEAR
WHAT THEY SAID TO EACH OTHER

OR ANYTHING
LIKE THAT, SIR.

CAN YOU ACCOUNT
FOR YOUR WHEREABOUTS
AFTER YOU LEFT?

AM I A SUSPECT, MA'AM?

NOT IF YOU HAVE AN ALIBI.

I, UH...

I WENT NEXT DOOR, MA'AM.

AND WHAT'S NEXT DOOR?

[ upbeat music playing ]

Kitamura:
WE CALL THESE
"HOSTESS BARS."

Mackenzie:
THUS, THE "HOSTESSES."

THEY DO MORE
THAN SERVE DRINKS.

Rabb:
A FULL-SERVICE
ESTABLISHMENT.

Kitamura:
OH, NOTHING HAPPENS HERE.

THAT'S HOW WE GET
AROUND THE LAW.

A CUSTOMER PICKS THE HOSTESS
OF HIS CHOICE.

WHEN HE'S READY TO LEAVE,
THEY MAKE ARRANGEMENTS
TO MEET SOMEWHERE ELSE.

THIS WOULD BE
THE PROPRIETRESS.

[ speaking Japanese ]

[ speaking Japanese ]

[ speaking Japanese ]

[ speaking Japanese ]

[ speaking Japanese ]

JUN?
HMM. JUN HIGASHIMORI.

SHE SAYS SHE KNOWS
SEAMAN LAFFERTY.

HE WAS A REGULAR CUSTOMER.

SHE REMEMBERS
BECAUSE HE YELL AT HER.

WHAT ABOUT?

HE HAD SEEN THE GIRL HE WANTED
WITH SOMEONE ELSE.

HE WAS MAD BECAUSE HE HAD
PREVIOUSLY REQUESTED HER.

Mackenzie:
SO HIS STORY STANDS.

THE GIRL HE WANTED
WAS JUN HIGASHIMORI.

JUN HIGASHIMORI IS A PROSTITUTE.

[ exhales ] NO, SIR.

ENSIGN, THE PROPRIETRESS
AT THE KAGUYA HOSTESS BAR

CLAIMS YOU'RE ONE
OF HER REGULAR CUSTOMERS.

SAYS YOU WERE THERE
THAT NIGHT.

SIR, IF THIS IS TRUE, WHY DIDN'T
SHE COME FORWARD EARLIER?

MADAMS LIKE TO KEEP
A LOW PROFILE, ENSIGN.

SHE'S GOT THE WRONG GUY.

IF THE SEX WAS CONTRACTUAL,
THERE WAS NO RAPE.

YOU DO UNDERSTAND THAT,
DON'T YOU?

LOOK, I UNDERSTAND
WHAT I'VE TOLD YOU, OKAY?

THAT'S MY STORY.
Rabb: WHY SHOULD WE
BELIEVE THIS STORY?

HUH? YOU LIED TO US BEFORE.

SIR, I NEED
TO GET SOME SLEEP.

[ sad music playing ]

FINE.

LET ME KNOW WHEN
YOU WAKE UP.

I WAS HOPING
I'D FIND YOU HERE.

YOU CAN'T TALK TO ME.

OH, I READ THE RULING.
IT APPLIES
TO THE DEFENSE COUNSEL ONLY.

I'M JUST AN OBSERVER.

WHAT DO YOU GOT THERE?

LOOKS LIKE A SURFACE
WARFARE PIN.

DID, UH, ENSIGN GUITRY
GIVE IT TO YOU?

YOU KNOW, I'VE BEEN THINKING
ABOUT YOUR ASSAULT

AND THE THING
THAT BOTHERS ME

IS THAT YOU DON'T REMEMBER
ANY OF IT.

NO, I-I... I DON'T
PROFESS TO KNOW

WHAT IT'S LIKE
TO BE A WOMAN
IN A SITUATION LIKE THAT

OR WHAT KIND OF TRAUMA
CAN HAPPEN AS A RESULT

BUT, UH, I WOULD THINK

THAT RATHER THAN REPRESS
THE MEMORY

THE VICTIM WOULD BE
HAUNTED BY IT.

SHE'D REMEMBER EVERY SINGLE
EXCRUCIATING MOMENT.

YOUR EYES DECEIVE YOU.

ANYONE EVER
TOLD YOU THAT?

YOU KNOW, THEY TELL ME
TWO THINGS--

YOU'RE DESPERATE
TO COME FORWARD
AND REVEAL THE TRUTH

BUT YOU'RE TOO SCARED
TO DO IT.

[ cries ]

THAT'S A START.

THAT'S A START.

MISS HIGASHIMORI,
ARE YOU A HOSTESS
AT THE KAGUYA BAR?

WOULD YOU SAY IT
FOR US, PLEASE?

YES.
I WORK THERE.

DO YOU HAVE
SEXUAL RELATIONS

WITH THE MEN YOU MEET
AT THE KAGUYA?

YES.Kitamura: FOR MONEY?

YES.

WOULD YOU EXPLAIN
HOW THIS CAME ABOUT?

MY FATHER IS CRIPPLED

AND MY MOTHER
IS RAISING
MY THREE SISTERS.

I WAS THE ONLY CHILD
OLD ENOUGH TO WORK

BUT MY PART-TIME JOB
AT THE DRESS SHOP
DIDN'T PAY ENOUGH

SO AFTER,

I WOULD GO TO THE KAGUYA.

DID YOU TELL YOUR PARENTS?

[ sobs ] I DIDN'T WANT
TO SHAME THEM.

[ sad music playing ]

Kitamura:
THE MAN YOUR FATHER
SAW THAT NIGHT--

THE ONE WHO RAN OFF--
IS HE THE ACCUSED?

DID HE RAPE YOU?

NO.

Kitamura: WAS HE A CUSTOMER?

IN THE BEGINNING,

BUT HE WAS
SO KIND TO ME...

SO GENTLE...

THAT YOU FELL IN LOVE WITH HIM.

YEAH.

Kitamura: THE CRIES
YOUR FATHER HEARD
THAT NIGHT--

THEY WEREN'T OF PAIN,
WERE THEY?

WHAT DOES YOUR FATHER THINK
OF AMERICAN SAILORS?

HE HATES THEM.

Kitamura:
WERE YOU TOO
ASHAMED TO TELL HIM

THE TRUTH ABOUT YOU
AND ENSIGN GUITRY?

[ sniffles ]

WHY DID YOU NOT TELL THE POLICE
WHAT REALLY HAPPENED?

I FIGURED, EITHER WAY,
I WAS GOING TO LOSE HER.

THE LEAST I COULD DO WAS TRY
AND SAVE HER
FROM A LIFE OF SHAME.

EVEN IF IT MEANT PRISON?

EVIDENCE WAS, UH...
IT WAS CIRCUMSTANTIAL.

I EXPECTED TO BE EXONERATED.

I NEVER THOUGHT
IT WOULD COME THIS FAR.

SIR, I NEED TO SAY SOMETHING.

I APOLOGIZE TO ANYONE
WHO WAS HURT BY THIS.

I KNOW THIS MAY SOUND STRANGE
TO SOME

BUT MY INTENTIONS
WERE HONORABLE.

[ exhales ]

Chegwidden:
THE NAVY'S REVOKED
YOUR OVERSEAS SCREENING.

YOU'LL BE SHIPPED STATESIDE
TO FACE MILITARY
CHARGES FOR PERJURY.

YES, SIR.YOU KNOW, THIS HAS GOT TO BE

ONE OF THE MOST
NAIVE STUNTS
I HAVE EVER SEEN.

I WISH I COULD EXPLAIN IT, SIR.

I... I GUESS I THOUGHT

IF I WAS DOING IT
FOR THE RIGHT REASONS,

THAT IT WOULD
SOMEHOW WORK OUT.

AND WHAT WOULD YOU
HAVE DONE

IF THE GIRL
HAD NOT COME FORWARD?

I DON'T KNOW, SIR,
BUT THE FACT THAT SHE DID

PROVES THAT WHAT WE HAD
WAS WORTH SOMETHING.

WHAT YOU HAD WAS IRRELEVANT
TO LARGER ISSUES.

DAMN IT, SON! YOU HAD
THE ENTIRE U.S. NAVY
SPINNING ON YOUR LIES!

OUR RELATIONSHIP
IS NOT IRRELEVANT, SIR.

NO, I GUESS NOT

BUT LET ME ASK
YOU SOMETHING.

NOW THAT YOU'VE, UH,
TRASHED YOUR FUTURE

WHAT DO YOU GOT
TO SHOW FOR IT?

IF I MAY, ADMIRAL?

THERE IS A HAIKU POEM:

"THE MOMENT TWO BUBBLES
ARE UNITED,

THEY BOTH VANISH,
A LOTUS BLOOMS."

BY THAT YOU MEAN...?

[ reporters clamoring ]

I'LL TAKE A STAB AT IT, SIR.

"LOVE IS ETERNAL."
