[Jimmy, his camera crew, and what appears to be an elderly veteran in a wheelchair meet with an Air Force captain in front of the "FIFI" B-29 Superfortress]
Major Theodore "Fudge" Talbot. His mom used to deliver him care packages of fudge during the war and then share them with his friends. So that's the story, right guys?
Yes.
Yes.
Well sir, this must certainly bring back some memories for you.
["Fudge" mumbles]
Too many to count, he says.
I got to say, Major Talbot, it's a privilege. So thank you for your service.
["Fudge" mumbles again]
He says you're welcome.
Oh. Well, um, boy. [to camera crew] I envy you guys. I mean, the stories you must have heard. You remember any good ones?
Uh, bombing stuff.
Bombing stuff.
Bombing stuff.
Like, like the war.
Did he fly over the Hump, or did he take off out of India?
[Jimmy grabs Fudge's shoulder and makes him feign a cough]
Doing okay? You need some water? [Fudge nods] Yes. Yes, sir. Nuts, I forgot his water.
Oh, hey. I can run back to the office, get him a bottle.
You could? Fudge, the captain's going to run back to his office, get you some water. Okay, sir? ["Fudge" mumbles] Alright, that's great. There's no rush, he'll be fine.
I'll be back ASAP.
[Captain Bauer runs across the airfield. After he's gone, Jimmy and the camera crew begin removing Fudge's breathing apparatus.]
[to "Fudge"] I thought I told you not to say anything. Go stand by the front...nose, whatever.
[Jimmy and Fudge stand in front of "FIFI" while the camera crew sets up their equipment to shoot Jimmy's commercial]
Where the hell did you find this guy? You couldn't get a real war hero?
Yeah, like they grow on trees. So this guy owes me. I defended him a while back when he couldn't pay.
Defend him for what?
What, you want to be a lawyer when you grow up? Just fix—
Public masturbation. Total bullshit.
Alright, keep your voice down. You do not possess the power of speech. [to his film crew] Okay, let's go! Let's go! Chop, chop! [to Fudge] Alright, hands on hips. Alright, looking strong, looking proud. Alright? See the bomber, okay? The bomber's the main point, so see it.
[sitting in the wheelchair] I see the freakin' bomber. You couldn't just plop the dude in front of a flag? Why's we have to come here?
Production value, showmanship. You rolling?
Yeah, rolling.
Okay, start the dolly. [Sound Guy pushes the wheelchair] Action. [to Fudge] You're part of the Greatest Generation. You fought the Nazis.
Fought the Japanese.
[makes cutting gesture to stop filming] What?
Fought Japanese. I fought the Japanese. This machine was used in the Pacific, where the Japanese are.
Why don't you shut up and learn to take some direction?
[indignant] ...Japanese.
All right, fine. You fought all the... dirty... Axis Powers.
