- It'll be tame after where you've been.
- I can stand it if the parish can.

:02:06
Good night.
:02:11
Father. Over here, sir.
:02:15
Yes?
:02:18
I've got to talk to you.
I'm a stranger here.

:02:22
I gotta tell somebody,
in case anything happens to me.

:02:26
- Happens to you?
- Lf you'll just listen.

:02:28
- Sorry it's in church...
- You're not Catholic?

:02:32
No. You're Father Logan, aren't you?
:02:34
The Jumping Padre,
always first out of the plane?

:02:38
You don't know me. I've heard of you.
I'm a paratrooper too, ex-paratrooper.

:02:43
All the more reason to listen.
I was...

:02:46
If you'll just hear me out.
I haven't much time.

:02:50
What's the trouble? I'll not only
hear you out, I'll help you.

:02:54
No, you can't. Not in this.
:02:56
The cops are after me. Not that
I've done anything wrong...

:03:02
...but a couple of tough customers
want to get their mitts on me.

:03:06
Grab me as soon as I show
in the streets again.

:03:09
I want somebody
to know what happened...

:03:12
...for a friend's sake,
to clear his name.

:03:15
What is his name?
:03:17
Johnny, a pal of mine.
He was a paratrooper too.

:03:21
It's like this, sir. A few days ago
they flew Johnny and me...

:03:26
...home from France
in a stripped-down bomber.

:03:29
Neither of us knew why the Army
took us out of a Paris hospital.

:03:33
We'd been under treatment for my
shoulder and Johnny's punctured lung.

:03:38
You see, only high-priority cargo
rides a bomb-rack all by itself.

:03:43
Why we rated it,
nobody could or would tell us.

:03:47
At La Guardia,
we find a welcoming committee...

:03:50
... with a lieutenant colonel from
Public Relations, not the Medical Corps.

:03:55
He was in a sweat because we were
late due to winds over the Atlantic...
