Where is Captain Westcott, other than at the forefront of your mind?
He's headed home. Doc ok-ed me getting into the ambush and I pushed. Pushed too hard.
It's obvious that you feel a grave responsibility towards this young man.
Ducky, I sent home plenty of Marines like Westcott. I knew their heads weren't right. I hoped that there would be someone on the other side to catch them.
You had no choice. You had to stay behind. It was your duty.
I'm on the other side now. I tried to catch Westcott. I didn't, he wouldn't let me.
And when do you take no for an answer?
I'm angry, Ducky.
You can't fix the world, Jethro. But you can call the boy.
