Defending His Honor

This way.
Over here! We have two injured.
The car was hit from behind and it went over the railing.
Where's my baby? Whoa, whoa.
I'm just going to hold your neck.
Try to relax.
All right, here we go.
Ready? One, two, three.
Nice and easy.
My baby! My baby? That her husband? No.
It's the guy who hit her.
As Admin OIC while in your absence, Ir I updated all NLSC instructions audited the TAD budget, sent reports to VCNO and SECNAV's AA, and I also organized a fire drill.
Very impressive, Lieutenant.
We were way overdue for a fire drill.
Welcome home, sir.
I'll bet you're happy the Tribunal is over.
Thank you, Lieutenant.
I am.
Not as happy as we are to have you back, sir.
Thrilled, overjoyed, ecstatic.
Message received.
Sir, did you see Bud? Is he eating okay? Didn't weigh him, but he looked fine.
Morning, sir.
Commander Rabb and Colonel Mackenzie are in your office per your request, Admiral.
Good, and, uh thank you, Tiner.
You're welcome, sir.
At ease.
Have a seat.
I think I speak for all of us when I say it's nice to put the Tribunal behind us.
Amen to that, sir.
There's no place like home, sir.
Don't be so sure, Colonel.
Last night a Navy captain was arrested for allegedly forcing the car in front of him off the road and over an embankment.
DUI? Involuntary manslaughter.
Crash resulted in a fatality.
No witnesses other than the woman driving and the Navy captain.
The woman is alive.
However, her six-month-old baby who was in the back seat did not survive.
She's claiming that her baby died as the result of road rage.
Judge Sebring? Yeah.
Captain Sebring's a fine officer and a personal friend.
Commander, you'll defend.
Yes, sir.
Colonel Sir, you're not going to ask me to prosecute? I'm not asking.
I'm ordering.
Yes, sir.
Hey, welcome back.
Good morning.
Morning, Sturgis.
You, too.
I hear our only lead to Kabir Atef and his terrorist cell got zipped up in a body bag, so what now? Webb's on the case.
It's in his hands for now.
We've got bigger problems.
Yeah? Captain Sebring's been charged with involuntary manslaughter.
Judge Sebring? No way.
The man's so by the book he won't brush his teeth the wrong way.
Who's prosecuting? Oh, welcome back, Colonel.
The driver of the other vehicle was a young woman who lost her child in the accident.
Oh, that's awful.
There's a good chance I could win.
Hey, you want me to second? Thanks, pal.
She's in a no-win situation.
She loses, she loses.
She wins, she loses.
Actually, I appreciate it.
I could use the help.
Can't let you go through that minefield alone.
I do not want to do this but our friend needs to know about Kabir.
Again, you force my hand.
That's enough.
Where's Kabir? We know he's planning something.
He's already killed thousands of innocent people.
You don't tell us what you know I assure you you'll join them.
He's useless.
Finish him.
Wait! Kabir has gone to Russia.
Why? He was going to meet a Russian.
Someone who fights for them.
He plans an action against the U.
S.
military.
Where in Russia did he go? Murmansk.
On the sea.
Exactly how fast would you say you were going, sir? I believe I've already answered that, Counselor.
You gave that information to the State Police on the night of the accident, sir.
I'm just trying to verify it.
I never exceed the speed limit.
Check my driving record.
In fact, I'd thought you'd done so already.
I have, Captain.
How would you describe your mood that night, sir? Um, no different from any other night.
Well, your Legalman said you seemed agitated.
Well, he misplaced a few phone messages.
So you were agitated? Commander, I he this isn't any indication of your performance in the courtroom.
Or yours, sir.
I'm not running a popularity contest.
Captain, how you present yourself is crucial.
Unfortunately, there are no witnesses to corroborate your testimony.
Or hers.
She doesn't need any, sir.
If you think that's something I can never forget, Commander you don't know me at all.
If you'll excuse me; My wife is ill.
No one ever said he'd be easy.
He disagreed with practically everything I said.
You want to trade places? Commander, Colonel, hey.
You guys have been so busy I've hardly had time to say welcome home.
Thanks, Harriet.
It's good to be home.
How's Bud? He's not too lonely, is he? No not too.
Uh, but some.
He misses you and A.
J.
It's got to be hard for him.
I have friends like you guys here to talk to and he's all alone in the middle of the sea.
Well, there are 5,000 other people aboard that aircraft carrier.
Have you told him yet about the house? Uh I'll take that as a no.
I'm going to.
I'm just looking for the right words, that's all.
Well, I hope you find the right words soon.
Yes, sir.
Well, that was a little uncomfortable.
Yeah, because we were "lying"? Withholding information.
Okay, we were lying.
Yeah.
Well, I tell you if my wife bought a house without telling me What's so funny? The thought of you with a wife.
It could happen.
I just wonder how Harriet's going to feel when Bud tells her that Coates is his Legalman.
She is? Were you eavesdropping, or do you just have bionic ears? I do have excellent hearing, thank you, ma'am.
Well, pretend that you didn't hear that, Lieutenant.
The information could be damaging.
Yes.
Very damaging.
I really don't want to dislike her.
Hmm.
Mm-hmm.
Sorry, I'm late.
The doctor was real backed up this morning.
That's perfectly all right, Mrs.
Wilson.
Jenny.
And it's "Miss.
" It was always just Ruby and me.
I hate to make you relive this nightmare, Jenny.
It's okay, Colonel.
I relive it all the time, every day.
The Defense will try to say that it was your fault that you lost control of the vehicle.
That car was always on my tail honking his horn and flashing his lights in my rearview mirror.
And it says that your baby was secured properly.
Ruby was strapped in her seat in the back like always.
You said it was almost 8:00 and you were just getting off work but Ruby was with you-- were you going home? Yes.
But you said you worked at the Roadside Inn, on the cleaning staff? They don't mind me bringing Ruby with me.
My friend Nora's always there to keep an eye on her.
So, if you were going home why were you going in the opposite direction? I realized I was out of baby food o I was going to the Pick 'n Stop.
Before we went home.
It's a lot cheaper there and they have the kind she likes.
Used to like.
Jenny, is there anything else that you didn't mention about that night? Anything you could have done? I could have afforded a baby-sitter so she wouldn't have been in the car that night.
I could have finished high school, so I'd have enough money to buy a new car-- one with air bags and fancy brakes.
I could have Jenny Reached back and shielded her when we went over the side! It's okay.
It's going to be okay.
You think I don't lie awake at night asking myself what else I could have done? I am not interested.
For your children, perhaps? I said I am not interested.
Open it, Captain.
You might like it.
I give you half now, half later.
When you get back.
As we discussed.
Absolutely not.
Captain, we should at least hear what they have to offer.
Negligent homicide.
No confinement.
Just dismissal.
Yes, I'm familiar with the law, Commander Turner.
There will be no pretrial agreement.
I think what we're offering is worth considering.
You could offer a parking fine I still wouldn't take it.
Captain, as your attorney You're going to recommend that I perjure myself by admitting to something that I didn't do? Captain Sebring, the forensics are conclusive and this woman's testimony is extremely convincing.
When she first told me what happened, even I was moved.
Fortunately, the jury will be composed of impartial military personnel who will not be swayed Excuse me, Captain, but this "impartial" jury is going to see a childless mother who was driven off the road by an unrepentant hard-a headed Naval officer.
I have served my country for 30 years.
I've committed my life to adjudicating fairly and unemotionally.
How could you ask me to do any less for myself? Captain, I needn't remind you this is not a civilian trial, sir.
If you are convicted you will be punitively discharged.
It's not just my career I'm worried about losing, Commander.
It's my principles.
One I can live without.
But I have no desire to live without the other.
I heard Ruby crying then the crying stopped.
Thank you, Miss Wilson.
Your witness.
Are you all right, Miss Wilson? Can we get you anything? No, thanks.
I want you to know that nobody here can imagine your pain.
But we appreciate you helping us discover what really happened.
Okay.
It couldn't have been easy supporting a baby on your own.
We managed.
Ruby always had food and a warm place to sleep.
You must have been on a strict budget.
You learn to cut corners.
Find out what's on sale.
I know you went a considerable distance out of your way the night of the accident to buy baby food at the Pick 'n' Stop.
Nature's Child, wasn't it? Yeah.
You know that same brand is much cheaper at the store around the corner from your house? Is it? I forgot.
Is it possible, Jennifer, that you You might have forgotten other things about that night? You know, often when faced with a tragedy such as this we need an explanation, a reason Someone or something to blame.
Objection.
If you have a question, Counselor, ask it or move on.
Is it possible, Miss Wilson, that in accusing Captain Sebring you were simply trying to make sense of a terrible accident? He kept pushing me to go faster.
Honking his horn, flashing his lights.
He forced me off the road.
I don't know why he did it.
But because of him, my Ruby is dead! Last night he pointed to our wedding picture and said "Where's Dada? I want Dada.
" I almost cried.
I wish my career weren't separating us.
It's movie night.
Oh, what'd we get? Pearl Harbor.
I love Kate Beckinsale.
All that sustains me is the thought of being back in our own little home with the two of you.
Lieutenant? The Admiral's looking for your review of this month's TAD orders.
One second.
Hold on, honey.
Be right back.
Lieutenant Roberts, it's Lieutenant Singer.
Hear things are going great for you.
By the way, congratulations on the new house.
Harriet has great taste.
What are you doing? Holding down the fort.
Did you tell Bud about the house?! Someone had to.
Honey? It's Harriet.
I love He signed off.
He's got some nerve.
He's got some nerve? How can he be mad at you about the house when he never told you Petty Officer Coates was his Legalman? Petty Officer Coates? The one everyone thought stole my bracelet.
You two really need to talk.
And was the impact great enough to force the victim's car off of the road? Given the road conditions, the trajectory, I'd say yes.
Thank you.
Your witness.
Mr.
Nichols, you've testified that a collision occurred between two cars by matching the size of the dent comparing the paint and analyzing the trajectory.
That's right.
Can your evidence also tell us whether the contact was intentional or accidental? Or assign fault? I'd have to be psychic.
Thank you.
I have no further questions.
I tried CPR, but the baby had stopped breathing.
And the mother? She was stable but in pain.
Was the Captain injured? No, ma'am.
Not that I could tell.
Did he follow the ambulance to the hospital to see how the mother was doing? No.
I let him go once I got his story.
He seemed pretty anxious to take off.
Your witness.
Officer, wasn't it Captain Sebring who called the police in the first place? Yes, sir.
How would you describe his attitude when you arrived? Concerned, but professional.
Relaying the pertinent details of the incident.
Was he in any way resistant to answering your questions? No, sir.
Now, prior to your arrival had Captain Sebring done anything to aid the victims? Yes, he pulled both the mother and the child from the wreckage and attempted to give aid.
Is this the kind of behavior you'd expect from someone guilty of road rage? No, sir, it's not.
Thank you.
I have no further questions.
Redirect, Your Honor.
Go ahead, Colonel.
After the Captain "took off," as you put it what happened next? Did Miss Wilson say anything? Just before she lost consciousness she asked me where "he" went.
"The man who was just here.
The one who ran me off the road.
" Thank you, Officer Greeley.
The Government rests Your Honor.
This court's in recess.
The Defense may present its case this afternoon.
I was just picking up the phone to call my friend Harm when my secretary says he's on the other line.
And he tells me I'll be having a visitor.
Hope you don't mind Harm putting us back in touch.
How are you, Alex? Cold.
I think springtime only comes to this part of Russia in August and lasts ten minutes.
Let's walk.
Thanks for the heads up.
Hey, it's not every day Russian Naval officers are approached by some Arab recruiting them for God knows what evil.
Well, we may be starting to fill in some of the blanks.
What can you tell me? So far, we know that a large sum of money was transferred from Pakistan to Iran.
How much? $250 million.
More money went to Russia through hawala money changers to whom we don't know.
But we think a terrorist cell is planning an attack on the U.
S.
military.
And you think this man who's trying to recruit our people is involved? Well, let's hope your informant has a piece of the answer.
Admiral, do you swear to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth, so help you God? I do.
Please be seated, Admiral.
Admiral Chegwidden how long have you known Captain Sebring, sir? Long time.
I recommended his promotion to Captain.
Would you consider him an even-tempered individual, sir? I've seen Owen Sebring in circumstances that would try the patience of a saint.
He's always exhibited exemplary self-control.
In your opinion, sir would he be capable of a rage that would force another motorist off the road? No.
That would be out of character.
Thank you.
Your witness.
Admiral, do you remember an incident, several years ago when you visited Captain Sebring's house, involving an argument between the Captain and his son, Alan? Your Honor, may we approach? Please do.
Ma'am, an argument between a father and son has no bearing on an alleged case of road rage.
According to Article 402, it would not be probative and would risk unfair prejudice.
According to Rule 405 when you bring a person's reputation into play an inquiry is allowed into relevant specific instances of conduct.
It goes to character, Your Honor.
At best it's 10% probative, Let the Members decide that.
You seem to have made up your mind, Colonel.
It's my mind that matters here.
An exploration of a personal matter is likely to prove only marginally probative.
But I agree.
It's for the Members to decide.
I'll allow it.
Thank you, Your Honor.
Admiral, you may answer the question.
I remember an argument between father and son Where the Captain became so enraged he physically threw his son out of the house? Words were exchanged.
The father may have laid a hand on the son.
Sir, you testified to the accused's even-tempered nature the "patience of a saint.
" That's not true in this case, is it? Objection.
Argumentative.
Sustained.
Admiral I've spoken with the Captain's son.
He said that during the altercation you restrained Captain Sebring.
Was that because you were afraid he might lose control? I was afraid he might do something that he'd regret later.
It was a family argument, nothing more.
Thank you, Admiral.
Nothing further.
Redirect, ma'am.
Leave it alone.
One moment, ma'am.
Captain, there are extenuating circumstances.
I want this line of questioning stopped.
Commander Rabb? Yes, Your Honor.
Admiral Chegwidden, what were the circumstances surrounding this quarrel, sir? I told you, Commander, sit down.
You are out of order, Captain.
Admiral? His son had run away from a rehab center.
He had a drug problem.
That is nobody's damn business! Captain Sebring! This court has no right to delve into my! Captain Sebring! If you cannot control your behavior then you will be tried in absentia.
Admiral, you're excused.
This court is in recess till tomorrow 0900.
Mr.
Logan, when you found out Miss Wilson was pregnant how did you feel about it? I was surprised.
I thought she was using protection.
I take it you weren't overjoyed about it? Look, we had already been broken up when she told me she was pregnant.
So, you felt she was trapping you? It crossed my mind.
After she informed you of her pregnancy did you offer her any type of assistance? Yeah, I gave her some money.
Was this money earmarked with a purpose? For in case she want Look, I wasn't even sure if that baby was even mine.
After the baby was born did Miss Wilson continue to ask for help? All the time.
She bothered you? I didn't have any money.
I did what I could.
Like fixing her car? Yeah.
That's what I do.
Her car had over 200,000 miles on it.
It must have taken a lot to keep it running.
Like I said, I did what I could.
You worked on her car earlier the day of the accident, is that correct? Yes.
What did you do to it exactly? Tune up.
Stuff like that.
You're a good mechanic, aren't you, Mr.
Logan? Yes, I am.
Good enough to know if a steering mechanism might freeze up or how tight a lug nut needs to be to prevent the wheel from falling off? Objection.
Withdrawn.
Look, I don't know what you're getting at but I fixed that car good.
I'll bet you did.
Your witness.
Mr.
Logan, how long have you worked at the Hayvenhurst garage? Two months.
Isn't it true that Mr.
Hayvenhurst inspects all your repairs before he returns the car to its owner? Yes, that's his policy.
He checks everything.
And the repairs you did on Miss Wilson's car-- did he inspect those? If it's in his shop, he checks it.
He doesn't trust anybody.
And was Mr.
Hayvenhurst satisfied the car was in good working order? Yes.
Thank you, sir.
No further questions.
I am taking the stand.
I know we talked about it originally, sir, but if There are no ifs.
If you take the stand and lose your temper again in front of the members There's only one thing in my life that can make me react that way and that card has been played.
Well, I'm doubtful we can convince the members of that, sir.
If one of them-- just one of them-- happens to be a parent.
'Cause, you see, that was my son that was being dragged through the mud up there.
Look, I thought I was doing the right thing that night.
Tough love, you know? My heart goes out to that woman.
I know what it's like to lose a child.
Captain I truly believe it's too risky for you to take the stand, sir.
I've never been afraid of risks, Commander And neither have you.
The man was an Arab, no question.
I know many Russian Captains who were approached like me.
How much did he offer you? More than I would make robbing a bank in Moscow.
Did he say what he wanted? My services.
The details were unclear.
Why did you turn him down? My brother was in the Army in Chechnya.
Muslim extremists ambushed his convey.
He and the other men surrendered.
They were dragged off into the woods and butchered like cattle.
No amount of money could make me do the bidding of an Arab.
Can you give us a description? Yeah.
He was dressed as a peasant.
A toymaker.
He had one blue eye and one brown.
Who else did he approach? Many men.
The last person I saw him with was Captain Yerastov.
Captain Mikael Yerastov? You know him? He's a legend-- the last great Cold Warrior.
He taught strategy and tactics at Kuznetsov Naval Academy.
I thought he retired.
Yeah, he wanted to, but he still needed the job.
Not that we have seen any paychecks lately I'd like to talk to the Captain.
That's his ship.
I can take you.
How could she do that? Buy a house without telling me? What is she afraid of? That-that I say that it was too big? Or-or that it cost too much? Oh, my God.
It's too big, and it costs too much.
Sir? If you don't mind my saying so The Lieutenant's been a good sport about you going away.
Supporting your career.
That's true.
You can't expect her to put her life on hold when you didn't.
Just a thought, sir.
Dear sweetie, I just wanted you to know I forgive you.
You have some nerve.
The reason I didn't tell you about the house was I knew you had other things weighing on you.
I didn't realize Petty Officer Coates was one of them! Excuse me, ma'am? Hmm.
Did everybody know about Bud and Petty Officer Coates but me? I'm sorry, Harriet.
I I'm sorry I didn't tell you.
Well, we shouldn't have put you in that position in the first place.
Maybe he was just scared how you'd react.
Like you about him.
I mean, buying a house being away from the people you love in the middle of a war You're only human.
Thank you, ma'am.
Colonel MacKenzie? Yes.
I'm Fran Masters, the nurse.
We spoke briefly on the phone.
Right.
You wanted to talk to me about Captain Sebring.
I'm sorry this is such short notice but what I have to tell you couldn't wait.
Come in, please.
Captain Yerastov? Are you there? His bag is gone.
He never said a word.
Well, whatever they talked about it looks like your toymaker made a sale.
Thank you, Captain.
Your assistance has been invaluable.
When you find Yerastov, tell him from me if he took money from that man I hope he chokes on it.
What is a captain of a ship, a decorated veteran of the Cold War doing getting mixed up with Al Qaeda, hmm? I don't have an answer.
All I know is that there's a credible threat against the U.
S.
Military out there and Kabir is behind it.
And what happened when you tried to pass Miss Wilson? She started to swerve in my path.
Did you hit her? I tapped her accidentally.
She didn't stop.
She kept going.
What happened next, Captain? Suddenly she swerved to the right and crashed through that guardrail and disappeared.
I don't understand.
It was just a tap.
So, at the time you didn't feel you were the cause of Miss Wilson's car leaving the road and going over the edge? I wasn't thinking about what caused it.
Only to check for injured passengers and get them out of the car.
You attempted to rescue them? I did what I was trained to do.
Thank you, Captain.
Your witness.
Captain, is it true that your wife is seriously ill? Objection.
Your Honor, my client's personal life has been maligned quite enough.
It goes to the Captain's state of mind, Your Honor.
I'll allow it.
You may answer the question.
Yes.
She was diagnosed with lymphoma.
Two years ago now.
It must be very hard.
We're coping.
How long have you been married, sir? You must love her very much.
Does your wife require home care? Yes.
Ever since I returned from the Tribunal, her condition has deteriorated.
And is it also true that you recently fired your day nurse, Fran Masters? Objection.
Relevance.
I'm getting there, Your Honor.
I beg the court's indulgence.
I'll indulge you for a minute, Colonel then I'm pulling the plug.
Please answer the question, Captain.
Yes.
I let her go.
She went home early.
She left my wife unattended.
Do you remember what day this was? Yes.
It was the night of the accident.
According to Miss Masters, you called her several times before leaving the office.
You left a message on her cell phone berating her for leaving a helpless woman alone and how you now have to drop everything to rush home.
Miss Masters gave me no warning.
What she did was unprofessional and I told her so.
So, you were enraged? I think that might be a little strong.
Well, perhaps if I played the message back for you you'd feel differently, sir.
Yes.
I was upset, but that in no way proves that I That you wouldn't let anyone or anything stand in the way of reaching your sick wife.
Objection.
Harassing the witness.
Withdrawn.
No further questions.
I haven't made it easy for you, have I? But you didn't expect me to.
Well, having appeared before you on the bench, sir-- no.
That's why I requested you-- your work in front of the Tribunal.
You're a hell of a lawyer, Commander.
No regrets.
It's not over yet, sir.
Ah, please, spare me your optimism or I will have regrets.
Captain, look-- none of this lines up, sir.
Look, she was driving in the wrong direction.
She's often confused, inconsistent.
It just doesn't make sense.
Well, I stopped looking for sense the day my wife was diagnosed.
I have no idea what half this crap is for.
Anti-inflammatory, anticoagulant antidepressant-- all weapons in a battle you can't possibly win.
One makes her nauseous, another makes her tired one gives her the shakes.
She never complains.
Do you know what really worries me now? If we do lose Who's going to take care of her? From now on, we should just be open and honest with each other.
And we should never be afraid to tell each other anything.
I love you, Bud.
I love you, too.
Lieutenant? Yeah.
I'm just going through these misconduct reports and I can't read your handwriting.
Uh Ah, "disobedient.
" Oh, it's a "D.
" Thank you, sir.
Everything okay, Lieutenant? We're getting there.
Don't thank me, Lieutenant.
If I was at all helpful in transforming your relationship from one of lies and deceit to one of openness and honesty that's all the thanks I need.
Excuse me, are you Nora Moran? Yes.
Commander Rabb.
I wonder if I could have a moment of your time? What more could the Navy want with me? It's about Jennifer Wilson.
I read your statement.
It seems you two were very close.
She was like me own.
When her baby was first born I used to drop by as often as I could to help.
Uh, ma'am, I had another question I'd like to ask you.
Did you lock the man up that ran Jenny off the road? Well, we're still at trial.
You helped her when her baby was born.
Poor girl had no one else.
And she was in no condition to do it all on her own.
Why, had there been a difficult birth? No such thing as an easy one.
Was there a problem? Some women bounce back faster than others.
Jenny wasn't one of them.
She was worn out, poor thing.
But there was nothing physically wrong? She finally did see a doctor.
Took a few months but she was able to get back to work.
A few months? She loved that baby.
She told me once Ruby was the only reason to go on.
Commander.
Spires Pharmacy called for you-- Mr.
Wallace, he said you'd know what it was in reference to.
Thank you.
And I believe these came for you.
Lab reports, sir.
They were just dropped off.
They're addressed to me, if I'm not mistaken.
You weren't, sir-- they looked important so I took custody of them until you returned.
Lieutenant, while I appreciate the zealousness with which you perform your duties I would also appreciate it if you would confine your zeal to your duties and yours alone.
That means keeping your nose out of other people's personal business.
Do I make myself clear? Not exactly, sir but I have a feeling you're going to.
If he doesn't, I will.
You intentionally caused friction between Lieutenants Roberts and Sims And I know why, Lieutenant.
If Lieutenant Roberts were forced to leave his post aboard the carrier to return home and save his marriage That would leave a slot open for you.
Now, please tell me that you are not that cold that calculating.
I prefer to think of myself as goal-oriented, ma'am.
Now, if you'll excuse me, Colonel, Commander.
Do you have a minute? Actually, I'm on my way out again.
I'll walk with you.
Close that door.
The, uh, offer still stands.
Negligent homicide, no confinement, dismissal.
Look, Captain Sebring spent 30 years in the Navy, Mac.
He'd lose everything.
He'd never go for it.
Make him, Harm.
It's the best advice you can give him.
You don't have a case.
See you in court, Counselor.
Commander Rabb, you may call your next witness.
Your honor, the Defense recalls Jennifer Wilson to the stand.
Ms.
Wilson, you're still under oath.
Yes, Ma'am.
Miss Wilson, have you been able to talk to anyone to help you through this difficult time? Well, there are my friends at work.
Actually, I meant a professional.
Oh.
Yes, I've seen a doctor.
It's covered by the hotel workers union.
Does the union also cover prescription drugs? Objection.
Relevance? I'm getting there, Your Honor.
Take a shortcut, Counselor.
Jennifer, are you currently taking anything for depression? Yes.
Do you have your medication with you? I don't know.
Would you look? Please read the label for the court.
Sertraline.
Go on.
"Take one twice a day as needed.
" Sertraline is an antidepressant, isn't it? I need it because of the accident.
Jennifer, your pharmacist confirms the doctor originally prescribed you Sertraline on January 2, one month after Ruby was born.
They must have been mistaken.
We've rescreened your blood work from the night of the accident.
You tested positive for Sertraline.
They must have mixed me up with someone else.
Did you get depressed after your baby was born? No.
Well, sometimes, Jennifer, after a woman gives birth her brain chemistry changes.
I loved my baby.
She becomes sad.
Sometimes she hears voices telling her to hurt herself or her baby.
I'd never hurt my Ruby.
It's not your fault, Jennifer; It's a sickness.
You can't help feeling the way you did.
You just wanted the pain to stop.
No! There are other medications, Jennifer.
Treatments, people you could talk with No, there aren't! I tried everything! Nothing would work! Nobody could help me.
No matter what I took, I still wanted to die.
But I couldn't leave Ruby.
What kind of mother would I be if I left her alone? She was crying; She didn't understand.
I told her I loved her.
I turned the wheel and stepped on the gas.
It was me.
It was me; It wasn't him.

Soon, you will have many toys at your disposal.
We will meet again in Bander Abbas.

Congratulations, Captain.

Me neither.
Admiral, I No apologies necessary, Colonel.
You did a fine job.
I'm sure the Captain would agree.
Absolutely.
Fine job.

Hmm.
That was rough.
I could use a little breather right about now.
You and I both.
What do you say I buy you dinner? Sure.
Sir, I've got something here.
