“Crossing the Line” quotes from JAG

[After entering] Sir, Lieutenant Elizabeth Hawkes, sir. CAG asked me to give you these.

I'm Major MacKenzie JAG Corps.

Everyone aboard knows who your are ma'am. [They both shake hands]

I'm interested why you two took part in Crossing the Line ceremony.

Same thing all the women were, important to be one of the guys.

Were you improperly touched or sexually harassed?

Not so far as noticed.

Do you feel you were singled out because of your sex?

No Sir.

Even when you were forced to danced with Lieutenant Issacs?

The only problem was we both wanted to lead. They treated everyone pretty bad.

Let me ask you a hypothetical question. What would you have done if someone had grabbed you?

A woman who can't handle some grab-ass jerk doesn't belong in the Navy.

Thank you, Lieutenant.

Skates, ma'am, that's what they all call me.

Skates?

Grew up on wheels. Permission to speak freely ma'am, sir? [pause] For a woman to be 'one of the guys', sometimes she has to be willing to give up somethings of herself. You know, be less of a woman. Sometimes it sucks.

So the question is, why should she have to be 'one of the guys'?

You look nice. Uh, I'm sorry, I did not mean that.

Ens. Harriet Sims

So you don't think I look nice?

Well, I just don't know if it was appropriate to say. I outrank you, and I may have inadvertently uttered a yellow-light remark.

Ens. Harriet Sims

You have an ulterior motive, Lieutenant?

No! I don't think I do.

Ens. Harriet Sims

Then I'll choose to believe you were sincere.

You grounded Lieutenant Isaacs after a substandard landing. The LSO log indicates: OSCB, EGAR, DNKH.

That's correct.

Can you tell me what those initials stand for, sir?

OSCB, Over Shot Came Back. EGAR, Eased Gun At Ramp.

What about, uh... DNKH?

Well, that's the technical one, Major. Damn Near Killed Herself.

(re: carrier aviation) You miss it?

Sometimes. Never at night.

Ens. Harriet Sims

I want you to kiss me.

Green light?

(watching from a distance) I just had a scary thought.

Their children?
