:42:01
I am askin' the guilty party
to place $ 62 on this here footlocker...

:42:06
..within the next 30 seconds.
I offer no lenience, no forgiveness,...

:42:10
..no abstention from punishment.
What I do offer is honour.

:42:14
I'm countin' down to 30.
:42:17
It is at this time that heroes are made.
:42:21
One,...
:42:23
..two,...
:42:25
..three,...
:42:28
..four,...
:42:30
..five,...
:42:32
..six...
:42:40
There's $ 62, if anyone cares to count it.
:42:43
I don't think that'll be necessary,
Private Epstein.

:42:58
Wykowski, pick up your money.
:43:01
Listen, don't count it, boy.
:43:04
Epstein.
:43:09
Do you have anything to say?
:43:12
No, Sergeant.
:43:14
May I ask why
you decided to return the money?

:43:17
I chose to.
:43:19
You chose to?
:43:22
Knowing full well that swift and just
punishment may be inflicted upon you...

:43:26
..when and if this is reported
to the commanding officer.

:43:29
I know it only too well.
:43:32
Last night at 0100 hours
I wandered through this barracks.

:43:35
I saw carelessness, complacency.
:43:40
Wykowski's wallet lying
in an open footlocker, inviting...

:43:44
..temptation and weakness.
:43:47
I took your $ 62, Wykowski,
returned the empty wallet to its place.

:43:51
I did it to teach you a lesson, instead...
:43:54
..l got submarined.
:43:56
Epstein, are you such
a goddamn ignorant fool...

:43:59
..to take the blame for something
you were innocent of?
