[troops chanting]
- Come on Weaver, come on Weaver.
Keep those feet moving,
can't tell your left from your right.
Can you hear me, Weaver?
Are you listening?
Do you have any ribbon?
[knocking]
- [Man] Sir, politely requesting to enter the hull, sir.
- Enter.
Oh my God.
What the hell is that?
- Sir, Private Weaver, reporting as ordered, sir.
- Why the hell would I need to talk to you.
You're a severe screwup.
What's your problem, Private Screwup?
- Sir, I'm just messed up, sir.
- Messed up?
You need a box of pampers, private?
- Sir, no sir.
- Come on, Weaver, come on.
Your Mommy ain't down here,
your Daddy ain't down here.
I'm down here waiting on you.
Come on, move it, move it, move it,
move it, move it.
Move it, move it, move it, get on out there.
You're gonna have to eat a little bit more
meat and potatoes, aren't you?
Your problem, puke, is that you're always
thinking about what things could be better
instead of bettering what you can be.
Alright, get that stick up there.
Come on, up there, Weaver.
Come, on get it up.
Weaver, what's the matter with you.
Mr. Weaver, your pantyhose fall down.
Your ass belongs to the United States Army,
and we expect you to get your mind right.
Well don't kiss it, kill it.
Come on, Weaver, what are you, some kind of wuss?
And your attitude locked in.
[yelling] [chatter]
There's nothing more formidable
than a United States soldier trained to fight,
trained to kill,
trained to survive.
You will be that soldier, private,
is that understood?
- Sir, the private differs with the sergeant's opinion, sir.
- We're gonna give you a little special training.
Come on, private,
show them what kind of soldier you can be.
- Sir, I'm unarmed.
- Come, on defend yourself.
Defend yourself.

[laughing]
- Good morning.
- [All] Good morning.
- Hey, that red one's cool.
- Oh, this is the Army service ribbon.
- And what's that one right there?
- Vietnam service medal.
- That's correct, sir.

No, no, no.
[laughing]
Oh, man.
Boy a lot of memories
just flashed before my eyes.
- You ain't gonna die on me, are you?
- Hey, do I look like a survivor, or what?
[laughing]
- I see you've finally made captain.
- Aw yeah, and the people I command?
Hey.
They were five years old when we were in country.
[laughing]
- The ones I trained were just gleams in their daddy's eyes.
You mind if I pull up a rotten chair here?
- Hey, hey, sit down.
- Weary bones.
[laughing]
- Wait a minute, hold it, hold it, hold it.
Did I hear you say, train?
- That's an affirmative.
- No.
- Yes.
- You're a damn drill sergeant.
[laughing]
Hey listen, listen.
You use the same tricks on them
as they did on us?
- Sometimes, yes.
But you know, I always pictured you guys
laughing at me while I'm doing it.
- Yeah, well, we said one day we'd
look back and laugh.
- Yeah.
[laughing]
I have a problem, Adam.
28 days ago one of my basics,
a private, Jack Weaver went over the hill.
I pointed the way.
- Kid a screwup?
- No no, he.
I told him that a million times
only because he could be an outstanding soldier.
I'm trying to find some point,
some breakthrough.
And I pushed him.
Hard.
And I kept pushing him until he broke.
I hit him, Adam.
[sighing]
In two days
he's a deserter.
- And they bring in the Feds?
- [Sergeant] That's right.
- Do you know where he is?
- I took some time to track him down.
You know, played some hunches, made some calls
on my own, you know.
He's at his old high school, Madison.
- Enrolled?
- No, he's [chuckling]
hanging out with his buddies.
You know, Adam
I know about your program here, and
if I go walking down those halls,
he's gonna rabbit.
It would be a favor.
It's not going completely out of your line.
And you'd be keeping him from a high dung heap.
- Sounds like something neither of us should
be doing, Wilcox.
- Yeah.
- Go back to base, Larry.
My people will deliver him to you.
Save you from some unwanted questions.
- I owe you one, sir.
- Nah. [chuckling]
No, I'm just paying back one of mine.
[Camera clicking]
- I would rather be in the Russian Army
marching across Siberia than take a picture in a yearbook.
- Bon Jove, that's a different name.
- Actually it's Joe-Vee.
It's Dutch.
[camera clicking]
- He's digging it.
- He should have had a little more patience,
they would have let him out of the Army on a section eight.
- What's that?
- It's that thing that Klinger was always trying to get.
- Oh, right.
Just be glad we didn't get some Ollie North wannabe.
This is gonna be cake.
- What are we doing?
Why don't we just get the guy,
get this thing over with.
- Okay.
Fuller said quietly, though.
- Right.
[laughing]
- Joe-Vay.
- I should have told them I was Mick Jagger.
Guy probably wouldn't have known the difference anyway.
[laughing]
Here, want one?
- Ah, no thanks.
- [Tall Man] Come on, for old time's sake?
- Hey.
- Put 'em out.
- Oh no.
- Detention, one week each.
For the three of you.
Piece of cake.
[phone ringing]
[sighing]
- Judy Hall.
Around the horn?
Isn't that some kind of yo-yo trick?
Well, I hope you're asking me if
I speak two languages.
That's disgusting!
Disgusting and impossible!
- Obscene phone call.
- Booker calling in sick.
- Shut up!
And get some therapy.
That was an obscene phone call.
The most disgusting thing I've ever
heard in my life.
- No one should be able to subject another person
to that kind of trash.
- I know, and from a girl.
- Girl?
- A girl?
- Oh my God.
- This is a drag.
- This is embarrassing.
We should have had junior back hours ago.
- [Doug] Look at him, he's just latched onto that girl.
His glands haven't even matured yet.
- Good afternoon, everyone.
Let's settle down now, shall we?
I'd like your attention, please.
This is the time of year when you
must make many choices regarding your future.
Sergeant Colquit would like to offer you
another suggestion.
- Good afternoon.
I'm sure you've all see those
commercials on TV.
Now, I'm not gonna jive you.
I'm here to tell you how it really is.
I'm told many of you top gun students have been
accepted to some fine universities
and we congratulate you.
We're aware many may
initially resist our offer.
However, let me remind you that the Army
is a peacekeeping force.
[upbeat instrumental music]
- Easy Weaver, you are under arrest.
Aw, man.
- Excuse me.
Did you see a guy around here with a
plaid shirt on?
You need some help with this?
[bleachers clattering]
- Okay, we'll see ya.
- So, are you sure that nobody followed you?
- I'm positive.
Where are you gonna go?
- I don't know.
Oh man.
Not again.
- Stop it, stop it,
you're treating him like a criminal.
- He is a criminal.
Give me your hands.
- Well, congratulations, Jack.
You won hardest guy to catch of the month award.
- [Doug] This is your trophy.
[phone ringing]
- This is Judy.
Oh, hi Cindy, how you doing?
Yeah, I can make it for lunch next week.
Alright, take care.
Bye bye.
- It's a six hour drive to the base.
Get him back there today.
Tomorrow, he'll officially be a deserter.
- [Doug] Well, it's a good thing we got you, then.
You don't want to be a deserter, do you?
- Oh yeah, this is the best thing to happen
in my life since colon hydrotherapy.
- Officers Penhall and Hanson
will be returning you to Sergeant Wilcox.
And don't even think about giving them
any crap, private.
- Do you mind?
For the next six hours, I'm still a civilian.
- Let me ask you a personal question.
- Yeah.
- It's peace time.
Why do you join the Army if you hate it so much?
- Never said I hated the Army.
- Well, then why did you bail the Army
to go hang out in high school?
- Because I hate high school.
- Oh.
- It's gonna be a long ride.
- So, what?
You don't hate the Army, but you left.
You do hate school, but you hang out there.
Why?
- Because I can.
- So what, is logic your strong point?
- Nothing is my strong point.
- Look, you get in the car, we take your back,
you serve your time, you get a career.
- Yeah, it's a job.
- It's much more than a job.
It's an adventure.
- Well, it can be.
It's just like police work.
Police and Army, they're kind of similar.
- You guys are trained to save lives.
Soldiers are trained to take them.
- It's gonna be a very long ride.
- Don't forget your seat belt.
[military instrumental music]
- Hey.
Check him out.
You think he's dreaming about chasing rabbits?
[yelling]
- [Doug] You okay?
[radio chatter]
- Hey, that was choice.
[radio chatter]
[upbeat country music]
[laughing]
[radio chatter]
- I didn't think it was gonna be a big deal but
I felt really weird when I had to
register for the draft.
- Listen, we're lucky that's the most
we had to worry about.
- Why anybody would want to volunteer during
peace time is beyond me.
- We're even, I don't know why anyone would
want to be a cop.
- Sorry.
You know what I mean.
Hanson, if the draft was on now
and your number was coming up,
what branch would you go into.
In the order like, what you want to do
the best to the worst?
- Air Force, Navy, Army,
Canada, Marines.
[laughing]
- Yeah, Marines, man.
Only thing I like about Marines is that chant
thing they do where they go,
duh-nuh-nuh nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh.
- The Army's got those.
- They do?
- [Jack] Yeah.
- Can you do one?
- Cadence?
- [Doug] Yeah yeah, a cadence.
- Wouldn't you rather pull the bones
out of my feet, I mean it would be
a lot less painful.
- Too much caffeine.

It's lady chatty, I'll give it to the highest bidder.

- Two bucks.
- I can dial a nine seven six number for two bucks.

I've never been.
You guys?
- Yeah.
- Last June in San Diego I saw Tony Quinn go--
- Hey.
Have you guys ever fooled around
with a tall, leggy blonde.
- Sure.
- No.
- Yeah, I have.
- With who?
- That one.
- No.
- What about you?
- Yeah.
- Me too, I have too.
- What about Cajun food?
You guys ever ate a crawfish?
- Hey man, it's not like you're dying.
- No, I'm going to jail.
- Hey, we're bring you back in time,
you're just gonna be in the cooler
for a couple weeks.
- And then the rest in the service.
- Four years.
Wham was a big band four years ago.
Dr. J was still playing ball.
- Hey, hey.
Four years ain't that bad.
You go to high school four years.
- Four years.
I can't spend another day.
- Listen, you made your bed, now sleep in it.
- Now, listen.
It's not like you didn't know what
you were getting into Jack, you know?
- I didn't.
My SATs were like 790 combined.
I had nothing lined up,
I had no idea what I wanted.
And these guys, Calvary, right,
they come along telling me they can
help me find out what I want?
All I find out is what I don't want.
- The Army.
- Well, you know, you made a mistake.
- Yeah, right, exactly.
Once I know that, I should be able to start
off the very next day with a clean slate.
Why should I have to wait four years?
I just want to start over.
[instrumental rock music]
Can we pull over, I gotta go.
- Can you hang on?
We got eight more miles.
- Didn't I tell you to go before we left?
- Well, yeah.
Listen, they consider me a criminal
and it's procedure to strip search and
I don't want to embarrass myself, you know?
Hey man, do you mind?
I go to go to Congress, if you know what I'm saying.
Could you take them off?
- Someone has to keep an eye on him.
- Odds.
[sighing]
Come on.
- Hey hurry up please.
It's a little cold
out here.
- Oh come on, man.
I got a thing about going in public.
[scoffing]
You're in the Army.
- Yeah just another reason to go AWOL.
- Alright, but hurry up, okay?
- Sir, yes sir!
- [Tom] Doug!
Doug!
- [Doug] He's almost done.
- He's done and gone.
[upbeat instrumental music]
[fast paced instrumental music]
- Come on, it's up to Dudley Doo right now.
- Listen, we're trained police officers
we should be able to function.
- That's right.
- In any situation.
- That's right, okay.
First thing we gotta do is call for backup, right?
Next, get a little crowd control going.
Alright, you little woodland creatures.
Back up, nothing to see here.
- Knock it off.
- No, no no listen, listen.
We're not equipped to do this.
No one will blame us if we turn back now.
[yelling]
- It's him.
[tense instrumental music]
- Alright Jack, now we're mad.
[grunting]
You alright?
- Yes.
[groaning]
[yelling]
[fast paced instrumental music]
I don't think we're properly equipped for this now.
- [Doug] I'm very uncomfortable.
- [Tom] Listen, all we had to do was
follow the tracks back.
- [Doug] Maybe a bird came along and ate the
bread crumbs, Hansel.
- [Tom] Hey listen, we're in serious trouble here.
You know, it's gonna be dark in an hour.
- [Doug] Yes, Mr. Den Leader.
We should have never ventured out
past the rest area.
- Stop with the name calling.
What are we gonna do now?
- When I'm watching the news,
and they're looking for people
lost in the woods, they usually say stay put.
- Nobody's looking for us.
- Well, when I'm watching the news,
and they're looking for lost people,
they don't usually find them.
- That's good to know.
- One for you, one for me.
- I think they keep putting less in the packages.
- Just be glad I had these.
- You're not holding out on me, are you?
- Hanson, don't get all treasurer Sierra Madre on me.
- I know.
I'm just hungry.
- Me too.
Remember that, when we were little kids,
that guy, what's his name on TV
that Yool Gibbons guy?
- Lou Gibbons?
- Yeah, Lou Gibbons.
He used to eat everything, didn't he?
Try that bark over there.
- This?
- Is it red berries or green berries?
I think red berries is nature's way of saying,
warning, look out, stay away.
Or red could mean ripe.
You know which it is?
- All I want to know is my bed on Sunday morning,
the heater.
Paper, coffee.
Bugs Bunny.
Pro Bowlers Tour.
Is that too much to ask for?
- Wow, I just want a freakin' walnut at this point.
My thumbs are numb.
- I can't feel my face.
- Me either.
- Let's build a fire.
- Okay, fire's good.
Fire's good, we could cook a animal,
we could eat it, right?
- Yeah and then we could stay here
and become fur traders.
- [Doug] We could do that.
[mumbles]
Look, look what I got.
They were really dry.
- Listen I couldn't light this stuff if it was
soaked in kerosene.
I would have been a lousy cave man.
What are you looking for?
- [Doug] A match.
- You don't smoke.
[laughing]
- Phone number.
Tall, leggy blonde.
[laughing]
- Okay, cup your hands,
cup your hands.
Make it work.
Like your plan.
- [Doug] Please.
Yes.
- [Tom] Oh oh oh.
[mumbles]
- I give you fire.
[yelling]
No!
No, no!
- God, bless me a microwave.
- That was the last match, too.
- Sure you don't have any more?
- Do I look like I have any more matches?
Listen, if worst comes to worst,
and I think it's gonna get worse.
- Yes?
- And you have to eat my dead carcass,
will you do a me a favor?
- What?
- Starve.
- Hey, listen, we don't need to build a fire.
He's up there.
It's Jack.
Let's go take his fire.
- It's like made to order.
[mumbles]
[tense orchestral music]
- You shouldn't be able to see 20 feet beyond that fire.
Let's use that.
- Okay, alright, I'll go this way.
- I'll go this way.

Hey, did you do this?
- I think I broke me leg.
I can't even move.
- Weaver!
Weaver, we need your help!
- [Jack] I left you the fire.
Now leave me alone.
- Don't move, alright?
Put this on your head,
you're gonna freeze.
- "Don't move," where am I gonna go?
- Where are you!
- [Jack] Around.
- Listen, Penhall broke his leg!
- [Jack] Come on.
- Come on.
Look, it's no joke, he got to get out of here.
- [Jack] I know the feeling.
- We're in trouble!
- [Jack] You made your bed.
Now sleep in it.
- [Tom] You need anything?
- Yeah, massive doses of morphine.
- [Jack] Hey, you guys.
Dominos delivers.
[laughing]
- I'm gonna go get this guy.
- No, it's too cold.
You don't have enough oxygen going to your brain.
- I can't move you.
Let alone find a way out of here
by myself.
Stick around, will ya?

No way, man, you'll never find me.
- You're being stupid, Jack.

Sick of your advice.
In fact, maybe now would be a good time
for me to give you some advice.
- Alright, go ahead.
Give me some advice.

And quitters never win.
- But you did it, you quit, you won.

No, no, that's too disgusting.

Civilization!
- Sort of.
This is tank artillery range.
- What?
- We were on the base the whole time.
- We've been chasing an AWOL guy around an Army base?
[giggling]
- [Tom] Which has been over four hours.
- Yeah. [chuckling]
- It's not funny.
[chuckling]
- We've just been camping, huh?
Yeah.
[military instrumental music]
- No hard feelings, guys,
but I'm not gonna wait for the
welcoming committee.
- Don't run anymore.
- I don't got a choice.
- You think you don't have a choice now,
wait until they throw you in jail for desertion.
- Hanson you can't do this, you promised.
You got to live up to it.
- [Tom] I know what I promised.
- Then let me go.
- I can't.
- I saved your lives.
- Save your own.
Come on.
- No.
- I'm sorry.
- Private Weaver.
- We'll take him back to the base.
- Thanks, but no thanks.
We won't make the mistake of letting him go.
[upbeat instrumental music]
- You're still a soldier, Weaver.
Unlike you, I've chosen to make
the military a career.
And in that time I've recognized a lot
of unwarranted actions.
And I've learned from them.
That's what makes me a good drill sergeant.
And I hope that's what makes me a good man.
[sighing]
I recognize that I have committed an
unwarranted action against you and
I assure you, as soon as you've served your time
in confinement, your slate will be
completely clean with me.
You could be a fine soldier, son.
If you chose to be.
