Transcript

CASEY: So how long do I rate the silent treatment, Colonel?

HAWK: You expect a pat on the back for not telling the brass I wanted to hose those Cats? HA!

CASEY: And I suppose I should have helped you murder them.

HAWK: No, you should be proud of yourself. It's not every day a rookie pilot can rescue a gang of Kilrathi terrorists.

CASEY: Those Kilrathi were flying worn out ships, Colonel.

HAWK: What's your point, Lieutenant?

CASEY: They're a pathetic pack of burn outs fighting a war that's been over for years. People like that... people like you should be pitied.

HAWK: But they're still the enemy.

CASEY: Were, Hawk. Were. Right now, there's a new enemy out there. It's got the Kilrathi on the run, and we're next.

HAWK: I'm a good pilot. I'm still alive. Maybe I should...

CASEY: Plan to stay that way? That's good advice.

INT. REC ROOM

Casey comes in behind Hawk at the bar. Hawk gets up and moves.
He takes his bottle and glass and goes to Black Widow table. He
belts down another drink. Casey pursues.

CASEY

(sits)

How long do I rate the silent

treatment, Colonel?

HAWK

You exoect a pat on the back for

not telling the brass I wanted to

hose those Cats? HAI

CASEY

I suppose I should have helped you

murder them?

HAWK

(sarcastic)

No, you should be proud of

yourself. It's not every day a

first year rookie gets a chance to

rescue a gang of Kilrathi

terrorists.

CASEY

Those Kilrathi were flying warn out

ships, Major.

(CONTINUED)

CONTINUED:

HAWK

What's your point?

CASEY

So they're a pathetic pack of burn

outs fighting a war that been

over for years. People like that--

people like you--should be pitied.

Hawk jumps him, throws him on the table and plunges the knife
into the.table next to Casey's head. Casey looks at it and
exhales. Hawk stands over Casey, breathing heavily.

HAWK

(almost to himself)

But they're still the enemy.

CASEY

(getting up)

Were, Hawk, were. Right now,

there's a real enemy out

there...and it has the Kilrathi on

the run. And were next.

Hawk thinks about it for a long time. Finally nods.

HAWK

I'm a good pilot. I'm alive.

Maybe I should--

CASEY

--plan to stay that way. Its good

advice.

Casey extends his hand. Hawk looks at it a moment and takes it.

INT. MIDWAY REC ROOM

Casey and Hawk ENTER. Hawk is gruff, defensive, and standoffish as they hit
the bar. After a beat:

CASEY

How long do I rate the silent

treatment, Colonel?

HAWK

You expect a pat on the back for not

telling the brass I wanted to hose

those Kats? Screw off.

CASEY

What should I have done -- helped you

murder them?

HAWK

(sarcastic)

No, you should be proud of yourself.

It's not every day a first year rookie

gets a chance to rescue a gang of

Kilrathi terrorists.

Casey works patiently to reach Hawk.

CASEY

Those Kilrathi were flying worn out,

twenty year old ships, Major.

(CONTINUED)

CONTINUED:

HAWK

So?

CASEY

So they're a pathetic pack of burn outs

fighting a war that's been over for

years. People like that, people that

live only in the past -- should be

pitied, not hated.

Hawk can see that Casey is not talking just about the Kilrathi -- but
himself. He tries to fight back...

HAWK

But they're the enemy...

CASEY

Were. Past tense. Right now, there's

something much worse out there..and it

has the Kilrathi on the run. And we're

next.

Hawk thinks about it for a long time. Finally nods.

HAWK

Yeah, well. Thanks for reminding me.

CASEY

Hey, what are rookies for?

Hawk almost grins as Casey EXITS through the Forward Door.
