Transcript

HAWK: Missed you at mess this morning.

CASEY: Yeah, I wasn't hungry.

HAWK: You weren't in the mood to eat. That's not the same as not being hungry.

CASEY: Do you have a point, Colonel?

HAWK: Blair. You're still blaming yourself for what happened. It's tearing you up inside. I can see it. Are you having nightmares about him yet? Sit down, Lieutenant. You know, on one of my first missions in the last war, I lost three wingmen, including two bunk mates. I was ready to sign for a psych discharge. I was a wreck. Couldn't sleep. Couldn't eat. Just kept seeing their faces every time I closed my eyes. This Major took me aside. He said, 'They're dead and you're not. Get used to it.'

CASEY: Yeah, easy for him to say!

HAWK: Yeah. But not so easy for him to sign on as my wingman. Which he did! Next mission out, he's got my six. I'm not in the groove yet. He had to kill a clan of Cats until I got myself together.

CASEY: Who was it? Blair?

HAWK: Your father.

CASEY: My father?

HAWK: Now, get some sleep, get something to eat and forget about Blair. You're a good pilot and you're still alive. You should try to stay that way.

CASEY: Is that what my father would have said?

HAWK

Sit down, Lieutenant.

(goes back to

sharpening)

Didn't see you at mess this

morning.

CASEY

I wasn't hungry.

HAWK

You weren't in the mood to eat.

That's not the same as not being

hungry.

CASEY

(a little tired of

this)

You have a point, Colonel?

HAWK

(nodding)

Blair. You cant stop blaming

yourself for what happened to him.

It's tearing you up inside. (beat)

Are you having nightmares about him

yet?

Casey looks uncomfortable, manages a nod. Hawk glances at his knife as it gleams in the light.

HAWK (CONT.)

Sit down, Lieutenant. You know, on

one of my first missions in the

last war, I lost my entire Wing.

Three pilots, including two bunk

mates. I was ready to sign for a

nsych discharge. I was a wreck.

couldn't sleep, couldn't eat-- just

saw their faces every time I closed

my eyes. (beat) Then this Major

took me aside, said, "They're dead

and you're not. Get used to it".

CASEY

Easy for him to say.

HAWK

Yeah, but it wasn't so easy for him

to sign on as my wingman. Which he

did. Next mission out, this

Major's watching my six. I wasn't

back in the groove yet. He had to

kill a clan of Cats until I got

myself together.

CONTINUED: (2)

CASEY

Who was it-Blair?

HAWK

(shakes his head)

He was your father.

CASEY

My father?

HAWK

(rises and crosses

closer to Casey)

Now, get some sleep, get some food,

forget about Blair. You're a cood

pilot and you're still alive. You

should plan tc stay that way.

CASEY

Is that what my father would have

said?

Hawk just smiles and exits.

INT. MIDWAY REC ROOM

Casey stares out the windows. Hawk ENTERS from lift.

HAWK

I didn't see you at mess this morning.

CASEY

I wasn't hungry.

HAWK

You weren't in the mood to eat. That's

not the same as not being hungry.

CASEY

You have a point, Colonel?

HAWK

(nodding)

Blair. You can't stop blaming yourself

for what happened to him. It's tearing

you up inside. I'd bet a year's

allotment you're even having nightmares

about him.

(CONTINUED)

CONTINUED:

Casey looks uncomfortable.

HAWK

(CONT.)

One of my first missions in the last

war, I lost my entire Wing; three

pilots, including two bunk mates. I'm

ready to sign for a psych discharge.

Then this Major takes me aside; tells

me they're dead and you're not. Now get

back to work.

CASEY

Easy for him to say.

HAWK

But it wasn't easy for him to sign on

as my wingman. Next mission out, the

Major's watching my six. Kills a clan

of Kats until I slip back in the

groove.

CASEY

Good leader. Would I have heard of him?

HAWK

I think so. He was your father.

CASEY

My father. Sounds like he took quite a

chance on you.

HAWK

That's the way your father was. Ready

to stick his neck out for a pal. But

willing to except the consequences if

he had to pay the price. (beat) Get

some sleep, get some food, forget about

Blair. Nothing else makes sense.

Hawk starts to walk away.

CASEY

Hey Hawk, is that what my father would

have told you?

HAWK

(Not looking back)

Pretty much, Kid. Pretty much.
