0:15:43 > 0:15:46Sir, I wondered if you could help me with this, erm...

0:15:48 > 0:15:51I don't think you understand. He loved that dog.

0:15:51 > 0:15:54I'm sure he did, ma'am, but the dog bit him.

0:15:54 > 0:15:57- When a dog bites, what do you do? - I don't know.

0:15:57 > 0:16:00You tie it up, you give it away, you might even shoot it

0:16:00 > 0:16:03but you don't pick it up by the throat, wrestle it into the bathroom

0:16:03 > 0:16:07and drown it in the tub! That doesn't sound strange to you?!

0:16:07 > 0:16:09- (BARKS) - (BOTH CHUCKLE)

0:16:09 > 0:16:14- Maybe he thought it was more humane. - More humane? It's a Doberman!

0:16:17 > 0:16:22I'm crying for him to stop! That all sounds humane to you?

0:16:22 > 0:16:25- Your husband ever threaten you or your child?- He'd never hurt us,

0:16:25 > 0:16:28- he just needs help. - Go to the VA.

0:16:28 > 0:16:31Go to them and ask them about counselling.

0:16:31 > 0:16:33- You think I haven't been down there? - (BARKS)

0:16:33 > 0:16:36He won't go. He's gonna hurt himself, I know he is.

0:16:36 > 0:16:39- Look, I'd really like to help you. - Really?

0:16:39 > 0:16:42Oh, cos it looks to me like you don't give a crap.

0:16:42 > 0:16:45You know, I do, but, I gotta tell you,

0:16:45 > 0:16:48crimes against dogs are hard to prosecute. So, if you don't mind,

0:16:48 > 0:16:52- I have somebody waiting for me. - Fuck you, lady.- OK.

0:17:14 > 0:17:17is call his bank and find out if he's made withdrawals

0:17:17 > 0:17:20- or used his credit card in the last week.- Retired cop

0:17:23 > 0:17:26Army has jurisdiction over its own personnel.

0:17:26 > 0:17:30- Sorry, I hope you find your son.- If your job is anything like mine was,

0:17:30 > 0:17:33it's to roll up drunks, twiddle your thumbs,

0:17:33 > 0:17:37not ask too many questions. But my son has spent the last 18 months

0:17:37 > 0:17:40bringing democracy to a shithole and serving his country.

0:23:42 > 0:23:46And you're smiling like an idiot because...?

0:23:46 > 0:23:50Well, the base bought this field from the city two months ago.

0:23:50 > 0:23:54City property only extends 50 feet from the centre of the road,

0:25:33 > 0:25:37Yeah, come on in. I'll just be a minute.

0:25:58 > 0:26:00(SIGHS)

0:26:12 > 0:26:17Sir, I regret to inform you that a body was found last night.

0:26:17 > 0:26:20We believe it to be the remains of your son,

0:26:20 > 0:26:23Specialist Michael Deerfield.

0:26:23 > 0:26:26Right. They'll need me to identify the body?

0:26:26 > 0:26:29No, sir. We've... They've determined identity in other ways,

0:26:29 > 0:26:32- I believe partial fingerprints. - What do you mean "partial"?

0:26:32 > 0:26:36- What happened to him?- I'm not at liberty to say, sir. Someone -

0:26:36 > 0:26:38I wanna see his body now!

0:27:02 > 0:27:06Sergeant Deerfield, this isn't necessary.

0:27:06 > 0:27:10- It's not the way you wanna remember your son.- Maybe not

0:27:10 > 0:27:13but it's the way he left this earth, so I don't see I have any choice.

0:27:22 > 0:27:25Working backwards, er, the carbon patterns show

0:27:25 > 0:27:28that the body was dismembered before it was burned.

0:27:28 > 0:27:30A large knife or tool was used but the blade was dull,

0:27:30 > 0:27:33which is why the bones are shattered.

0:27:33 > 0:27:37The dismembered parts were doused with an accelerant

0:27:37 > 0:27:39in an attempt to incinerate the body.

0:27:39 > 0:27:43But you'd need an oven to approach an effective temperature,

0:27:43 > 0:27:47so most of the tissue would've been left intact. So the damage

0:27:47 > 0:27:50is largely the result of scavengers stripping the bones.

0:27:50 > 0:27:53Now, cause of death, there is evidence of multiple stab wounds.

0:27:53 > 0:27:57- How many? - I'm sorry?

0:27:57 > 0:28:02- How many?- With so much flesh missing, we can only count the blows

0:28:02 > 0:28:05- that made impact with bone. - How many of those were there?

0:28:06 > 0:28:0842.

0:28:10 > 0:28:12One knife or several?

0:28:14 > 0:28:16One.

0:28:23 > 0:28:25Gonna turn these over to the Army?

0:28:25 > 0:28:28Tried to. Said they took their own photos.

0:28:28 > 0:28:31And they didn't say it in a nice way.

0:28:36 > 0:28:39I'd like to give you a call tomorrow before you go home.

0:28:39 > 0:28:42- I have a few questions. - Ask 'em now.

0:28:42 > 0:28:46- Your son didn't happen to own a green car?- Mike doesn't own a car.

0:28:46 > 0:28:49Motorist reported seeing a green sedan parked on the shoulder

0:28:49 > 0:28:52near the field that Saturday night. One of the theories

0:28:52 > 0:28:55is that this is a carjacking or a robbery gone wrong.

0:28:55 > 0:28:58There's a big uptick in gang activity lately.

0:28:58 > 0:29:03- I wanna see where he died.- I'm sorry, it's still an active crime scene.

0:29:03 > 0:29:06- I will let you know as soon as you can.- OK.

0:29:08 > 0:29:11What else do you wanna ask?

0:29:11 > 0:29:14A lot of the deaths we've seen like these have been drug related.

0:29:14 > 0:29:17Are you asking if Mike was a drug dealer or just an addict?

0:29:17 > 0:29:20I don't wanna be asking anything.

0:29:20 > 0:29:22You know the Army does regular drug tests.

0:29:22 > 0:29:25Not when they're in Iraq.

0:29:27 > 0:29:30Now, we found this under your son's mattress.

0:29:30 > 0:29:32It's not gonna go in my report.

0:29:32 > 0:29:36Why I ask is last month we arrested three soldiers

0:29:36 > 0:29:38who were trying to smuggle heroin in from Kuwait.

0:29:38 > 0:29:42They'd made arrangements to sell it to a local Mexican gang.

0:29:42 > 0:29:44I understand Mike spoke Spanish?

0:29:44 > 0:29:48And you think he could've been a drug mule because he spoke Spanish?

0:29:48 > 0:29:52No,... because somebody cut off his hands and his head.

0:30:32 > 0:30:35I'm really sorry about your son.

0:30:38 > 0:30:40Show me.

0:30:42 > 0:30:44I'm sorry?

0:30:46 > 0:30:48I need to see where he died.

0:30:48 > 0:30:53It's not our case. The murder occurred on military property.

0:30:53 > 0:30:56- But you know where it is? - There's nothing to see.

0:30:56 > 0:30:59Then, there shouldn't be any problem with me seeing it.

0:31:00 > 0:31:02(SIGHS)

0:31:07 > 0:31:11You people know how to trample a crime scene, I'll give you that.

0:31:20 > 0:31:22I suppose you thought it was a good idea

0:31:22 > 0:31:26to have everybody you ever met park on this shoulder.

0:31:28 > 0:31:32If your crime-scene boys knew what they were doing,

0:31:32 > 0:31:36they'd have found traces of blood in the gravel right here.

0:31:36 > 0:31:38It's where he was killed.

0:31:38 > 0:31:41So you don't see blood but you know it's there?

0:31:41 > 0:31:44Yeah. Just like I know his body was dragged from here...

0:31:46 > 0:31:48..to there.

0:31:48 > 0:31:51That's remarkable. The ground is rock hard

0:31:51 > 0:31:55- but you see drag marks.- You go to the trouble to burn a body,

0:31:55 > 0:31:58don't you think you'd try to cover your tracks?

0:31:58 > 0:32:01I'm going to the restroom.

0:32:05 > 0:32:08You might find it easier just to drive around that field in your car!

0:32:08 > 0:32:11You couldn't do any more damage!

0:33:56 > 0:33:58- not a green one. - Why?

0:34:02 > 0:34:05Doesn't it?

0:34:16 > 0:34:18It certainly does.

0:34:27 > 0:34:31- Thank you. - It's the least I could do.

0:41:01 > 0:41:04- (MEN CHUCKLE) - You see, that's what concerns me.

0:41:04 > 0:41:07Having fucked my way into the job, I may not be qualified enough

0:41:07 > 0:41:11to piece together this complex of a crime.

0:41:11 > 0:41:14Take that murder site. I would've never concluded

0:41:14 > 0:41:17that he was killed on Army property. I would've been fooled

0:41:17 > 0:41:20by the signs of struggle on the road. And you know that trail

0:41:20 > 0:41:22of broken brush from there

0:41:22 > 0:41:25to where he was burned? That would've made me think

0:41:25 > 0:41:29he was killed in our jurisdiction, then moved. Because the killers

0:41:29 > 0:41:32didn't think it smart to chop him up under a bright streetlight.

0:41:32 > 0:41:36Yeah,... I would've totally misread that crime scene.

0:41:42 > 0:41:47No, no, no, no, it's good work. I mean, we needed another homicide.

0:41:47 > 0:41:51What, we've solved three out of the last ten? Another unsolved murder

0:41:51 > 0:41:54would cement my standing with the mayor. Do you have a problem

0:41:54 > 0:41:58- with your fellow detectives? You feel the need to show 'em up?- No, sir.

0:41:58 > 0:42:00So it's the military police?

0:42:00 > 0:42:03- You think they're gonna bungle the investigation?- No, sir,

0:42:03 > 0:42:07but we know the real motives for the Army wanting this case.

0:42:07 > 0:42:10Psychic powers! Er, when did you discover you had these?

0:50:12 > 0:50:15A package came from Michael.

0:50:17 > 0:50:21- What kind of package? - I don't know, it's a package.

0:50:21 > 0:50:24He sent it to himself. It's from overseas.

0:50:24 > 0:50:26- I'm gonna open it. - No.

0:50:29 > 0:50:33Does it look like it's been opened by customs or by the military?

0:50:33 > 0:50:37How would I know? No, it doesn't.

0:50:37 > 0:50:41- "Why can't I open it?" - Just don't. Please. Erm,...

0:50:43 > 0:50:45..just put it someplace safe.

0:50:45 > 0:50:49(SIGHS) OK.

0:51:50 > 0:51:53I was wondering if I could ask you about your son.

0:51:53 > 0:51:56- I thought it wasn't your case. - It sort of fell back to me.

0:51:56 > 0:51:58Isn't that our good fortune(?)

0:51:58 > 0:52:01I was wondering if you knew if your son had any enemies.

0:52:01 > 0:52:04You mean other than the thousands of Iraqis

0:52:04 > 0:52:08and foreign fighters who were trying to kill him?

0:52:08 > 0:52:10Yeah, that shirt looks like it's still wet.

0:52:10 > 0:52:13It's dry enough.

0:52:13 > 0:52:17- Anything bothering him that you know about?- No.

0:52:17 > 0:52:20You looking into the gang connection?

0:52:20 > 0:52:23You have reason to think your son was involved in gangs or drugs?

0:52:23 > 0:52:26No.

0:52:26 > 0:52:29- When did you last speak to him? - Why?

0:52:29 > 0:52:32Capital One faxed me a recent summary of his credit-card charges.

0:52:32 > 0:52:36- The day after he got back, he bought some tube socks -- I told him

0:52:36 > 0:52:39those are the worst socks - they have no heel, they wear right through.

0:52:40 > 0:52:44- And then he went out for some chicken.- Does it say what time?

0:52:45 > 0:52:47Then no more charges.

0:52:47 > 0:52:51We're assuming your son was killed sometime Saturday night

0:52:51 > 0:52:54or Sunday morning. We haven't found his wallet

0:54:34 > 0:54:38- I was gonna call you to arrange interviews.- Saved you the trouble.

0:55:09 > 0:55:11My chief already spoke to him.

0:55:11 > 0:55:14- This one's a jurisdictional mess. - There is no mess. The murder

0:55:33 > 0:55:36I have a right to interview potential witnesses.

0:55:36 > 0:55:39- Has the Army said you can't? - They're considering my request.

0:58:29 > 0:58:32You're named after King David. Your mother didn't tell you that?

0:58:33 > 0:58:36- That figures. - (SIGHS)

0:58:39 > 0:58:43Alright. (CLEARS THROAT) There were two great armies assembled -

0:58:43 > 0:58:46the Israelites and the Philistines, and they were both up on hills,

0:58:46 > 0:58:49the Valley of Elah in between. It's in Palestine.

0:58:49 > 0:58:52- You know where it is? - No.- Doesn't matter.

0:58:52 > 0:58:55Anyway, the Philistines had a champion -

0:58:55 > 0:59:01- a huge giant... named Goliath. - Really?

0:59:01 > 0:59:04- There's a robot named Goliath. - This is a different guy.

0:59:04 > 0:59:07So, every day, for 40 days,

0:59:07 > 0:59:10Goliath would stride down into the valley

0:59:10 > 0:59:14and challenge somebody from the other side to fight but nobody would.

0:59:14 > 0:59:18All the bravest warriors that the king had were all too scared.

0:59:18 > 0:59:21- Why didn't they shoot him?- They didn't have guns, they had arrows.

0:59:21 > 0:59:25But there are rules to combat - you don't shoot somebody

0:59:25 > 0:59:29that's challenging you to fight with a sword. So, anyway,...

0:59:30 > 0:59:33..one day this kid, not much bigger than you,

0:59:33 > 0:59:37comes delivering bread. He says to the king, "I'll fight Goliath."

0:59:37 > 0:59:39- Really? No way. - True story.

0:59:39 > 0:59:43So the king dresses David in his own armour

0:59:43 > 0:59:46but it's much too big and heavy, so David takes it off

0:59:46 > 0:59:50and he looks around and he finds five smooth stones about that big.

0:59:50 > 0:59:54And he steps out into the valley, with his slingshot in his hand.

0:59:55 > 0:59:59Goliath comes running, yelling this horrible scream,

0:59:59 > 1:00:03and David lets fly with that slingshot. Hits him in the forehead,

1:00:03 > 1:00:07cracks his skull open. Goliath falls down, dead.

1:00:07 > 1:00:10- So he shot him. - With a rock.

1:00:10 > 1:00:12- Not the same thing. - (SIGHS)

1:00:14 > 1:00:18- And you wanna know how he beat him? - How?

1:00:18 > 1:00:21The first thing David had to fight was his own fear.

1:00:21 > 1:00:25He beat that, he beat Goliath.

1:00:25 > 1:00:28Cos when Goliath came running, David just planted his feet,

1:00:28 > 1:00:32took aim and waited. You know how much courage that took?

1:00:33 > 1:00:36Just a few more steps and Goliath would've crushed him.

1:00:38 > 1:00:41Then he let fly with that rock.

1:00:42 > 1:00:45That's how you fight monsters -

1:00:45 > 1:00:49you lure 'em in close to you, you look 'em in the eye,

1:00:49 > 1:00:51you smack 'em down.

1:00:52 > 1:00:56- You fight a lot of monsters? - Yeah.

1:00:56 > 1:01:00- You win?- If I didn't, I'd have been crushed, right?

1:01:00 > 1:01:03- Yeah. - OK, then.

1:01:05 > 1:01:07Good night.

1:01:19 > 1:01:23- Oh, he likes to sleep with that door open.- He'll be OK.

1:01:33 > 1:01:35Door!

1:01:42 > 1:01:45- Not that much. - OK.

1:01:46 > 1:01:49That's good.

1:02:03 > 1:02:07- You know that story isn't true. - Of course it's true.

1:02:07 > 1:02:10It's even in the Koran.

1:02:13 > 1:02:16May I read the men's statements?

1:02:16 > 1:02:19There's nothing in them that'll help. The last time

1:07:26 > 1:07:29We were at this strip club, just hanging out,

1:07:29 > 1:07:33having a good time. We were drinking, of course.

1:07:33 > 1:07:35And Mike starts acting really weird.

1:07:35 > 1:07:39Got really angry, throwing change at the stripper.

1:07:39 > 1:07:41And then he started talking trash,

1:07:41 > 1:07:44so she started talking trash and they tossed us out.

1:07:44 > 1:07:46And we're getting in the car

1:07:46 > 1:07:49and Bonner's all pissed, saying Mike can walk.

1:07:49 > 1:07:52So Mike grabs him and they start going off on each other.

1:07:52 > 1:07:55But it's the kinda shit that happens all the time -

1:07:55 > 1:07:58the whole macho-warrior crap. Nobody got hurt,

1:07:58 > 1:08:01so we got in the car, we drove around for a while

1:08:01 > 1:08:04and then we stopped at the Chicken Shack.

1:08:04 > 1:08:07Mike bought, for getting us kicked out.

1:08:07 > 1:08:12- And what time was this? - I don't know. Around one.

1:08:12 > 1:08:14And then we came back here.

1:08:18 > 1:08:21All of you?

1:08:21 > 1:08:24No,... just the three of us.

1:08:26 > 1:08:30- Why would you leave him there? - Because we were wasted.

1:08:30 > 1:08:34We had had enough but Mike wanted to find some meth.

1:08:34 > 1:08:38- He wanted to buy drugs?- Yeah, like he needed to be more fucked up.

1:08:38 > 1:08:42- Pardon my language, ma'am. - You think that's what happened?

1:08:42 > 1:08:46- He went looking for drugs, ran into the wrong people?- Who knows?

1:08:46 > 1:08:50Mike always had secrets. He was always sneaking off by himself.

1:08:51 > 1:08:55He really didn't get along too well with people.

1:08:56 > 1:08:59So you get kicked out of the strip club at 11,

1:08:59 > 1:09:03show up at the shack at one. What were you doing for two hours?

1:09:03 > 1:09:07Driving around, looking for a party... or women.

1:09:07 > 1:09:09Did you stop anywhere?

1:09:10 > 1:09:13Yes, ma'am. (GULPS)

1:09:14 > 1:09:17Now you want me to guess?

1:09:18 > 1:09:23(CLEARS THROAT) We found a hooker. She blew all four of us.

1:09:23 > 1:09:26Why didn't you say that when you were questioned?

1:09:26 > 1:09:29We didn't think Mike would've wanted his parents to know.

1:09:29 > 1:09:32You didn't want his father to know he got a blow job?

1:09:32 > 1:09:35And was buying drugs. Wouldn't want somebody telling my parents.

1:09:35 > 1:09:38So, what was the fight about?

1:09:38 > 1:09:41Mike was in some dark mood, I don't know why,

1:09:41 > 1:09:45and then he started saying nasty things to that stripper.

1:09:45 > 1:09:47- Like? - Stuff I'm not gonna repeat.

1:09:47 > 1:09:50The woman's a stripper, not something on your shoe.

1:09:50 > 1:09:55- Penning said Mike came at you. - Might have, I don't recall.

1:09:55 > 1:10:00- You have a knife?- If I wanna kill someone, I don't need a knife.

1:10:00 > 1:10:03I guess in Iraq things are different.

1:10:03 > 1:10:06- Somebody makes you mad, you can deal with it.- You lost me.

1:10:06 > 1:10:09You got power.

1:10:09 > 1:10:11- You've never been in the Army. - No, but I know

1:10:11 > 1:10:15you've got weapons, authority. You put men face down in the dirt,

1:10:15 > 1:10:18kick in their doors, somebody comes at you, you kill 'em.

1:10:18 > 1:10:22- The guy could have bombs or guns. You kill him first.- Make the -

1:10:22 > 1:10:25React or die. You ever stab someone?

1:10:29 > 1:10:32Somebody comes charging at me, I'd reach for my weapon.

1:10:32 > 1:10:35- Interview over. - Glad none of this bothered you.

1:10:35 > 1:10:39My father came back from war and things he couldn't deal with

1:10:39 > 1:10:43- pretty much destroyed him. - You have no idea what we did!

1:10:43 > 1:10:47- And we did it for you!- For me? - I'd just say thanks,

1:10:47 > 1:10:50- leave it at that and kiss my ass! - Walk away.

1:10:51 > 1:10:56- You happy now?- I want the clothes they were wearing.

1:10:56 > 1:10:59And I wanna take full-body photographs for cuts and bruises.

1:11:02 > 1:11:05but you might want to take a glance at this.

1:12:49 > 1:12:53(SIGHS) You were right, they couldn't have done it.

1:12:53 > 1:12:56They were with Mike at the Chicken Shack at one.

1:12:56 > 1:12:59Bonner, Penning and Long arrived back at base

1:12:59 > 1:13:0220 minutes later.

1:13:02 > 1:13:06The field where we found Mike's remains is half an hour away.

1:13:06 > 1:13:10There's no way they could've driven there in time, never mind...

1:13:12 > 1:13:15- (SIGHS) - So they left him there?

1:13:15 > 1:13:18- They said Mike wanted to buy drugs. - And that's why they lied?

1:13:20 > 1:13:22(SIGHS)

1:13:26 > 1:13:29And they had no idea where he went when they left him

1:13:29 > 1:13:31- or who he met? - No.

1:13:31 > 1:13:34And I have statements from every other man in the squad.

1:13:34 > 1:13:38- May I see those? - (SIGHS)

1:13:40 > 1:13:43If they're telling the truth, no-one saw him after dinner time.

1:13:43 > 1:13:46Lab says no traces of blood

1:13:46 > 1:13:49on their clothes or their belongings.

1:13:49 > 1:13:52- Did you look at these clothes? - Mm-hm.

1:13:52 > 1:13:55This shirt has crease marks where it came off the shelf.

1:13:55 > 1:13:58Clothes are cheap on the base. First thing you do when you get back

1:13:58 > 1:14:01is toss every stitch you took with you.

1:14:01 > 1:14:05There are nine soldiers in an infantry squad.

1:14:05 > 1:14:07- Yeah? - They lost a man in Iraq.

1:14:07 > 1:14:10There ought to be seven statements here and there's only six.

1:14:10 > 1:14:13- So one of them's on leave. - When I got here,

1:14:13 > 1:14:16the sergeant told me ALL of his men were back.

1:14:20 > 1:14:22Read the names.

1:14:22 > 1:14:26- Yeah?- Hi, this is, er Fred Gainley at the Buxton sheriff's office.

1:14:26 > 1:14:28Are you missin' a man?

1:14:28 > 1:14:32Because I have a Robert Ortiez here on a drunk and disorderly,

1:14:32 > 1:14:35- says he's one of yours. - Thanks. I'll send someone over.

1:14:35 > 1:14:37I appreciate it, thank you.

1:14:37 > 1:14:42- He's AWOL.- Check for priors and warrants. And see if he owns a car.

1:14:50 > 1:14:52Ooh, bad boy!

1:14:53 > 1:14:56He's a local boy. First arrested Bobby Ortiez when he was 14

1:14:56 > 1:15:00for drug trafficking. Got bail and the witness disappeared.

1:15:00 > 1:15:03About a year and a half ago we liked him for drug smuggling.

1:15:03 > 1:15:05He gets all patriotic and joins up.

1:15:05 > 1:15:11- How the hell did they let him in the Army?- No felony convictions.

1:15:11 > 1:15:15- There's a 1999 Chevrolet Malibu registered in his name.- What colour?

1:15:15 > 1:15:17Er,... blue.

1:15:17 > 1:15:20- That's not enough for a warrant. - He's AWOL.

1:15:20 > 1:15:23The Army can go after him, we can't.

1:15:23 > 1:15:26Well, he's got four unpaid parking tickets.

1:15:26 > 1:15:30Try Judge Osorio. Any idea where our boy might be?

1:15:30 > 1:15:32Finding Bobby's never the problem.

1:15:36 > 1:15:38Go back to your motel. I'll call you.

1:18:21 > 1:18:24Fuck! Agh!

1:18:34 > 1:18:36Alright.

1:18:37 > 1:18:40- Good. - We'll take him from here.

1:18:47 > 1:18:49What was it, chico?

1:18:49 > 1:18:51You wanted him to carry drugs and he wouldn't do it?

1:18:51 > 1:18:55Is that it, chico?! Afraid he was gonna tell on you?!

1:18:55 > 1:18:57Wouldn't it be funny if the devil looked just like you?

1:19:01 > 1:19:04Fuck you, man!

1:19:04 > 1:19:07- I see you cracked him wide open(!) - Put your hand up.

1:19:07 > 1:19:11He isn't pressing any charges. And you're lucky I feel pity on you

1:19:11 > 1:19:14- or I'd be doing it myself. - I didn't mean to hit you.

1:19:14 > 1:19:18- That an apology in your world? - I'm sorry.- Keep it.

1:19:18 > 1:19:22- Isn't anybody gonna question him? - We did! We searched his house!

1:21:18 > 1:21:23- It was in Bonner's pants pocket. - He was carrying it?

1:21:24 > 1:21:26He didn't leave a note,

1:21:26 > 1:21:30- he just put it in his pocket and then hung himself?- I'm sorry,

1:22:07 > 1:22:11- So why did he kill himself?- I don't know. You tell me how he killed Mike.

1:22:11 > 1:22:15- He had an alibi. Why'd he kill him? When'd he kill him?- I don't know!

1:33:16 > 1:33:19- to go visit a bar, hm? - I know you're feeling burned.

1:33:19 > 1:33:24No, I'm pissed off! On an average weekend, what, 8,000 soldiers?!

1:33:25 > 1:33:29I'm gonna sit in my car outside any one of your entrances,

1:33:29 > 1:33:33pull over every vehicle that comes back and arrest every soldier

1:33:33 > 1:33:36whose blood alcohol is 1/1000 over the legal limit.

1:33:36 > 1:33:40- How many men would that be? - And how long till you're fired?

1:33:40 > 1:33:43I'm gonna do it on my own time, and we have a good union,

1:33:43 > 1:33:45so I'm gonna say four to five weeks.

1:33:45 > 1:33:48How many DUIs do you think I could make in a month?

1:33:50 > 1:33:52Shall we find out?

1:34:10 > 1:34:13- "Commander's office."- Let me speak to Captain Henning, please.

1:34:13 > 1:34:15"One moment, sir."

1:34:17 > 1:34:19We were leaving the strip club

1:34:19 > 1:34:22and we thought that Mike and Bonner have cooled down.

1:34:22 > 1:34:26They could be like that - laughing one minute, fighting the next.

1:34:26 > 1:34:29Anyway, we're in the car and Mike's all pissy

1:34:29 > 1:34:32and Bonner just starts needling him.

1:34:32 > 1:34:36- Just saying shit. - Like what?

1:34:36 > 1:34:39I don't know. Like what a good driver Mike is.

1:34:39 > 1:34:43Stuff that makes no sense. But Bonner has enough and he pulls over

1:34:43 > 1:34:46and they just start going off on each other.

1:34:47 > 1:34:51And Long was yelling for them to cut it out so we can go home.

1:34:51 > 1:34:54And Mike starts cussing at him, too. And then I look down

1:34:54 > 1:34:57and I'm stabbing him.

1:34:57 > 1:34:59You,... you are?

1:34:59 > 1:35:02Yeah.

1:35:03 > 1:35:06And your friends didn't try and stop you?

1:35:06 > 1:35:09I think they were sorta stunned.

1:35:10 > 1:35:13They're yellin'. And Mike falls to the ground

1:35:13 > 1:35:16and... he's dead.

1:35:16 > 1:35:20And Long is screaming, "Christ, what do we do now?!"

1:35:22 > 1:35:24It was Bonner's idea to chop him up.

1:35:25 > 1:35:28He used to work for a butcher.

1:35:28 > 1:35:31He knew how to work the knife around the joints. Made it easier.

1:35:33 > 1:35:35We would've buried the parts

1:35:35 > 1:35:39but... it was getting late and we hadn't eaten.

1:35:41 > 1:35:44- You were hungry? - Starvin'.

1:35:46 > 1:35:49We stopped at the Chicken Shack.

1:35:51 > 1:35:54I liked Mike, we all did,

1:35:54 > 1:35:57but I think on another night

1:35:57 > 1:36:00that would've been Mike with the knife and me in the field.

1:36:03 > 1:36:06I think he was the smart one.

1:36:07 > 1:36:10I think he could see.

1:36:14 > 1:36:19I'm truly sorry, sir. I'm sorry for your loss.

1:36:28 > 1:36:33I saw a video Mike shot, him in the back of a Humvee.

1:36:37 > 1:36:40Looked like he was torturing a prisoner or...

1:36:46 > 1:36:51We arrested some haji... who was wounded

1:36:51 > 1:36:55and we were riding along

1:36:55 > 1:36:58and Mike was pretending like he was a medic.

1:36:58 > 1:37:01And he would stick his hand in this guy's wound...

1:37:02 > 1:37:06..and he says, "Does this hurt?"

1:37:06 > 1:37:09And the haji screamed, "Yeah, yeah!" (CHUCKLES)

1:37:09 > 1:37:13And then Mike would stick his hand in the exact same place

1:37:13 > 1:37:16and say, "Does that hurt?" (LAUGHS)

1:37:19 > 1:37:22It was pretty funny.

1:37:25 > 1:37:27It became a thing with Mike.

1:37:29 > 1:37:31That's how he got the name Doc.

1:37:33 > 1:37:35It was just a way to cope.

1:37:37 > 1:37:39We all did stupid things.

1:38:11 > 1:38:14(SIGHS)

1:38:21 > 1:38:23Excuse me, sir.

1:38:40 > 1:38:43You know where Private Ortiez's room is?

1:38:53 > 1:38:55You got a minute?

1:38:57 > 1:39:02- I need to apologise to you.- You got some real serious issues, man.

1:39:02 > 1:39:04Yeah.

1:39:05 > 1:39:07That's true.

1:39:18 > 1:39:23I got a honourable discharge, if you could believe it.

1:39:23 > 1:39:25It's the Army, I'll believe anything.

1:39:27 > 1:39:29I hated it over there.

1:43:05 > 1:43:08Well, that's just nerves talking.

1:43:10 > 1:43:12Somethin' happened, Dad.

1:43:17 > 1:43:19- "(CRIES)" - (SIGHS)

1:43:21 > 1:43:23For Christ's sake...

1:46:48 > 1:46:51So every day, Goliath would walk into the valley

1:46:51 > 1:46:54to challenge someone, anyone.

1:46:55 > 1:47:00But no-one would fight him... until David showed up

1:47:00 > 1:47:03and said, "You know what? I'll do it. I'll fight him."

1:47:03 > 1:47:06So the king dressed David up in his own armour,

1:47:06 > 1:47:11- which was so big -- But why would he let him fight a giant?

1:47:11 > 1:47:13He was just a boy.

1:47:20 > 1:47:22Do you think he was scared?

1:48:21 > 1:48:23# Curiously bright...

1:48:23 > 1:48:28- Just like that?- Just like that. - It looks really old.

1:48:29 > 1:48:31It's been well used.

1:48:41 > 1:48:44- And I shouldn't take it down at night?- No.

1:48:46 > 1:48:48You leave it just like that.

1:48:49 > 1:48:52- (SIGHS) - That's a lot easier.- Hm.
