[Steve is telling Catherine about Freddie and flashes back to when he had just stopped Freddie from quitting BUD/S training by ringing the chief's bell, then Joe White ordered them to bearcrawl back to barracks in the rain]
Yeah, it was just me and your old man and a bottle of whiskey. All right, and he opened up to me, started giving me this speech about how a man needs something to believe in, something to fight for. And according to him, there was no greater cause than the United States of America.
He said all that, huh?
Yeah, he did.

I think some of it must have rubbed off on you.
