:24:01
- Who's "he"?
- He's just a kid from my home town.
:24:05
He just died. They came
from the States to see him.
:24:09
- Get in the bed, will you?
- What?
:24:11
His mother, father and brother flew
out here. They know he's dying.
:24:16
- What do you want me to do?
- Be him.
:24:19
Just for a few minutes.
:24:22
They came 5,000 miles
to see you before you die.
:24:25
- I'm not dying!
- Of course you're dying. We're all dying.
:24:29
They'll know. They came to see their son.
:24:31
This is what they get. One dying boy
is just as good as another. Or as bad!
:24:37
- It won't work.
- These people have come a long way.
:24:40
I don't want to disappoint them.
I'm sentimental about old people.
:24:44
- What if they start crying?
- They probably will start crying.
:24:48
I'll wait outside the door, and if it gets
sticky, I'll come in and break it up.
:24:55
It won't work.
:24:57
Do this for me
and I'll do something for you.
:25:00
- Will you ground me?
- I can't.
:25:02
You can fill out a slip that says
I'm on the verge of a nervous collapse.
:25:07
Sure I can.
:25:18
But there's a catch.
:25:22
- Catch-22.
- Yes.
:25:24
Group isn't going to approve my action.
:25:27
They'll put you back on combat status
and send me to rot in the Pacific.
:25:32
- Oh, my God, here they are.
- Start dying.
:25:35
Do this for me and I'll send you to Rome
on a five-day R and R.
:25:56
He looks terrible.
:25:58
- He's sick, Pa.
- Harvey.
