JAG quotes

(after the Admiral ignores her again) You know, this sucks!

Bud

Ma'am?

I feel like I'm fifteen years old again, getting grounded for stealing cars and drinking! If that's the sort of thing one might get grounded for as a teenager.

Bud

Hey, the movie’s just about to start.

Harriet

Okay.

Harriet

That’s not Free Willy.

Bud

Yeah. It’s 10 o’clock. (Reaches for the movie guide. Hands it to Harriet without looking.) Free Willy.

Harriet

(Reading the guide.) No, Bud, that’s Free the Willy.

Bud

Huh?

Admiral, upon further reflection, I wonder if I might talk to you about what’s going on between you and Major MacKenzie.

Are you out of your mind?

Apparently.

Annie

(when Harm says he's not dating anyone) Well, I always thought you and Mac would...

Mac has a boyfriend.

Annie

Oh, so you're secretly in love with her.

Annie

So, what did you two find to talk about?

The admiral was a SEAL. He knows three ways to kill someone with his bare hands.

Annie

Well, that certainly sounds useful.

Webb

Rabb, why did I have to hear about this from the Baltimore Police? Why didn't you just come to me first?

Now, how would I know you had a hand in this, Webb?

Webb

I have a hand in everything.

Do you know what scares me? You know more about computers at your age than I ever will. You know, when I was 10, all I had was a newspaper route, a model airplane and an unbroken string of the X- Men starting at issue one.

You still got those?

No, when I went to Annapolis, my mom gave them to the kid next door.

Bummer.

Yeah, total bummer. I'd kill to have them back now. Did I ever tell you about my step-dad?

I bet you really hated him.

Well, it wasn't quite that bad, you know. But I never gave him a chance.

Because he wasn't your dad, right?

Yeah. He was a businessman.

Ultimate bummer.

Yeah, I thought so. But you know what, Josh? He deserved a chance. You saw me kissing your mom, didn't you?

I guess.

Are you okay with it?

You're okay. You're a pilot.

Here's what you need to understand, Josh. No matter what happens, your mom will always love you first, best and the most.

You know, major, I think your talents may be wasted in administrative law.

I wholeheartedly agree, sir.

Well, shall we start fresh?

I'd like that. You know, there's something I've always wanted to do.

What's that? (she kisses him on the cheek) You're not gonna do that a lot, are you, major?

No, sir.

Wish us luck, sir.

Break somebody’s legs.

Hey, I gave up cigars last night. (Mac and AJ stay silent.) Any words of encouragement?

Don’t get fat.

Bud

Excuse me, gentlemen, ma’am.

What is it lieutenant?

Bud

Is this a bad time, sir?

What?

Bud

We were hoping that you could settle a disagreement that we’re having. As you know, we’re having a full military wedding.

Harriet

And he wants me to wear my uniform instead of my dress.

Good God, Roberts. Let the woman wear a dress to her own wedding.

Bud

Yes, sir. And while we’re at it, might we get your position on the bunny hop, sir?

No.

How does the other guy look, Lieutenant?

Bud

(Getting to his feet.) Major!

(Getting up as well.) She doesn’t look as bad as he does.

She?

Bud

It’s a long story, ma’am.

Well, it better be a good one. And what’s your excuse?

Well, you wouldn’t believe me if I told you.

Bud, you’re getting married in a few hours.

Bud

I really appreciate you coming down here, Major. I owe you one.

One? You 2 owe me 1,000,000. Do you have any idea what the admiral’s gonna say when he hears about this?

(Walking to the front of the cell.) Oh, I think he’ll understand.

Anything broken?

Just my ego. Never been shot down before.

Admiral.

You okay?

Yes, sir. Webb? What are you doing here?

Getting decked. (Turns and punches Webb.)

Look at the odds, Harm. We're in the middle of Russia with Parlovsky or Falcon trying to stop us. We don't have identification papers, you don't know the language, and you have no plan other than to get us to Beloyka. Is that sound mission planning?

Chickening out on me?

You know better than that. Answer my question. What is your plan other than to take a train to Beloyka? You're being driven by emotions and those emotions are gonna get us killed.

You can quit. I can't. My father is out there somewhere and I'm gonna find him.

Or die trying.

Or die trying. But you shouldn't. You've come with me farther than anyone I know. I'll never forget that, Mac.

Well, I guess I always knew it would come down to this. And that you'd need me to come up with a dispassionate plan.
