1:11:18
For the last time, Mr. MacLean...
1:11:20
I tell you it is not for us
to interfere.
1:11:22
And I tell you, Mr. Riddick,
it's your duty as senior warrant officer...
1:11:26
to express the opinion of every other
noncommissioned officer in this battalion.
1:11:29
I'll not do it, Mr. MacLean.
1:11:32
- Then I shall, Mr. Riddick.
- You'll do no such thing, you impudent man!
1:11:36
March in, Mr. Riddick.
March in.
1:11:48
Come in.
1:11:59
- Permission to speak, sir, please.
- Yes, Mr. Riddick. What is it?
1:12:02
Sir, been talking with the pipe major.
I believe he's had a word with the adjutant.
1:12:06
- Well, go on.
- Perhaps we're being a little hasty
with this inquiry, sir.
1:12:10
What did you say?
1:12:11
Wouldn't express an opinion of this sort
unless it was the opinion
of all the noncommissioned officers, sir!
1:12:16
It does seem as how they feel
such an inquiry would
1:12:18
Mr. Riddick, you astonish me.
1:12:21
I thought I gave an order
that the evidence would be collected.
1:12:24
- Sir! I understood the order, sir!
- Then obey it!
1:12:27
Mr. Riddick...
1:12:30
I realize this can't be a popular order,
but it is an order.
1:12:34
It's the good of the battalion
we must think of.
1:12:36
Begging your pardon, sir. It was
the good of the battalion we were considering.
1:12:40
Feel the battalion might best be served
if you were to deal with this little matter yourself.
1:12:44
There's no question of that, do you hear me?
No question of it.
1:12:47
Damn it!
The sergeant's mess isn't a senate!
1:12:51
For God's sake, Mr. Riddick,
if an officer strikes another rank...
1:12:54
he has to pay for it, hasn't he?
1:12:56
- Well, hasn't he?
- Sir.
1:12:58
- Well, get cracking with it.
- Sir!
