04x19 - Beneath the Surface

[bunniefuu]

(male narrator) In 1972,
a cr*ck commando unit...

was sent to prison
by a m*llitary court...

for a crime
they didn't commit.

These men promptly escaped...

from a maximum-security
stockade...

to the Los Angeles
underground.

Today, still wanted
by the government...

they survive
as soldiers of fortune.

If you have a problem,
if no one else can help...

and if you can find them...

maybe you can hire
the A-Team.

[g*n f*ring]

[whistle blowing]

Any luck, Barry?

Hey, Mr. Maitland, what
are you still doing here?

I thought I'd wait around and see what
our prize oceanographer's dug up.

Great news.

I've got a piece of the
hull for those tests.

With any luck,
I think we can confirm.

Well, that should be
some exhibit.

You think we'll be able
to keep it, don't you?

I mean, the Smithsonian is not
gonna come in and haul it out--

No,no,no. It belongs
in California.

Now, you let me worry about that.
Yes, sir.

Have a good evening, Barry.
You, too, Mr. Maitland.

[birds chirping]

[gasping]

[speaking in Scottish accent]
What did you find, Barry?

[stammering] What're
you guys doing here?

You've been taking a boat out
every day for a week.

You found something
out there.

Just routine dives. I don't
think so, me young friend.

Now, we're gonna know what you
found, one way or another.

Now...

you was gonna
answer the question.

(Murdock) I've got to have this
thing back in three hours, Face...

or Dr. Richter's gonna be very upset when
he finds out that I borrowed his limo.

It's gonna set the trust aspect of
our therapy back three years...

not to mention the fact that
he's gonna strangle me.

Would you relax, Murdock, you have
nothing to worry about, okay?

Besides, you are getting the
better end of this little deal.

Oh, you think so?

Trading two plane tickets to Cabo
for a night in Richter's limo...

just so you can impress a bunch of
people you haven't seen in 20 years!

I'm not trying to impress
a bunch of people...

I haven't seen in 20 years,
for crying out loud.

I have only one purpose
in coming today...

Rebecca Piper.

Of course, she hardly gave
me the time a day back then.

Called me
a minor league hustler.

What, you?
Yeah.

You can't imagine
how many times...

I asked her to go for a
walk by the garden pond.

That was the go signal
back then...

go for a walk
by the garden pond.

Well, what makes you think that
her standards have plunged...

after all these years?

Just don't forget
what to do, okay?

Give me 20 minutes
to circulate...

lay down the back-story
of my stunning career...

and home in on Rebecca Piper.

Then“
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[imitating foreign accent] Just try not
to spill any champagne back there...

Mr. Bond.

You're not gonna
park it here, are you?

I don't want this car parked
next to any another vehicle.

I don't even want the exhaust from
another vehicle to touch this car.

And you, I want you to
stay right where you are.

I will let you out.

Murdock, you sure you don't wanna
put a fence up around the car?

No.

Three hours, Faceman. Three hours.
No problem.

And what do you think is the most
direct route from here to the airport?

[people chattering]

Hello.
Hello.

Yes, Peck, Templeton Peck.

Templeton.

Debra. Oh, my gosh.

Debra Garrity?
My... You look...

[chuckles]
You look great.

Still the same, Templeton?
Chasing all the girls?

Have you seen Rebecca Piper here?
Yes.

As a matter of fact, she was
asking about you, Templeton.

Really? Was she alone?

I mean, she wasn't dragging a
husband around with her, was she?

I don't think so. Why?

Come on, Debra,
you remember me.

I remember you used to like to
take a walk by the garden pond.

N'[music playing on stereo]

Oh, I forgot.

Barry Green sent you this letter.
I guess he won't be here today.

Well, I'm very sorry, I was
looking forward to seeing him.

You wanted to sell him
Bobby Moore's bicycle again?

I could explain that. Well,
if you'll excuse me, I...

It's been nice seeing you.

(Face)
Rebecca.

Rebecca Piper.

Templeton Peck.

We sure have grown up,
haven't we?

Yes, indeed.
Yes. Haven't we?

I remember you used to always wanna
take me for a walk by the garden pond.

Yeah, still do.

You should never
stop asking.

Excuse me,
Templeton Peck?

Me? Oh, no, I'm
Teddy Pendleton. I...

Oh, this? I must have picked
up the wrong nametag.

Don't let the uniform scare you.
I'm just a meter maid.

I'm Barry Green's sister. Barry
Green doesn't have a sister.

When he was 16,
my family adopted him.

Oh, well,
that's great--

Listen, I came today
hoping you'd be here.

I haven't heard from
Barry in two weeks.

Well, I haven't heard
from Barry in 20 years.

I know he's been
working a lot lately...

but it's just not
like him to disappear.

I see. Well...

Look, he left this letter
for me at the desk there.

See, so he's probably just
out of town or something.

Well, could you open it? Maybe
it says where he's gone.

If you will excuse me, I'll be
back in just a minute, okay?

Well.
Peck. Templeton Peck.

Good seeing you, Lester.
How you been?

I'm great.
Great.

I was just telling Rebecca here how I've
been test flying F-16's for Lockheed.

You know, kind of putting
them through their paces...

make sure they're safe for our
boys in uniform and all that.

Hey, I had to bail out of
one just last week. Really?

Well, I've been doing a lot of
work myself at Cape Canaveral.

Well, didn't I read something
about you in Vietnam?

Oh, yeah, yeah.
Intelligence work.

I'll tell you
all about it, later.

No, no, this was some kind of trouble.
Aren't you--

All this talk about
careers is so boring.

I mean, we all go through changes,
but the end results are so obvious.

Yeah.

(Rebecca)
Come on, the pond is waiting.

[people chattering]

It's so good to see you
after all these years.

Yes, well, you took the words
right out of my mouth.

[birds chirping]

You know
what this means to me...

you coming here today and all?
Tell me.

It means $10,000.

[blowing whistle]
Ten“

[g*ns cocking]

Nothing like a reunion to bring
old friends together, huh, Peck?

Yeah, I'm sorry we haven't
stayed in touch, General, but...

Come on. Party's over.
Yeah, yeah.

Look, I understand, Rebecca,
they made you do this.

I understand.

Up the stairs.

Temp, I think Barry's
in real trouble.

Join the club.
Get out of the way, lady.

[women screaming]

[machine g*n f*ring]

Got a light, General?

[g*ns f*ring]

♪♪[We've Got to Get Out
of This Place playing]

No, not behind the limo!

[tires screeching]

(Hannibal)
Come on, Captain.

I can't leave this car!
Forget the car!

Go!

Come on!

[police siren wailing]

[horn honking]

Let's go!

(Murdock) Rich is gonna
be here in 24 hours.

I've got to get that limo bonded.
I've got to get the tires fixed!

I've got to get it
back from the army!

What is the matter with you two?
Showing up at a place like that.

I didn't tell him, Face,
I didn't.

He made me do it, Hannibal.
I warned you about going.

And you give me this song and dance about
not caring anything about reunions.

Fulbright probably subscribes to
your alumni newsletter, Lieutenant.

I can't believe that Fulbright
would sink that low.

That he would find an unrequited
love, from my youth...

and force her to set me up.
That's....

She's after
the reward, Face.

Boy, Hannibal,
you are so cynical.

I can't believe this.

I mean she... You should've seen the tears
in her eyes as Fulbright led me away.

(Face)
She wanted to warn me.

[laughs]

She'd be in trouble
with the government--

(Murdock) Trouble?
I'll give you trouble.

I lost Richter's limo...

[stuttering] and then I get
ticketed by some meter maid.

Now, who tickets
in front of an orphanage?

Elaine. Oh, you know this
meter maid by name, huh?

Yeah. Well, good, you
can fix the ticket!

Well, she's Barry's sister.

Now Barry's in trouble, and, well,
she needs our help, Hannibal.

She's a cop, Face. (Face)
She's a meter maid.

Look, I really think
we should help her.

Sounded like Barry was
in a lot of trouble.

[stammering] Besides,
maybe she could fix this.

Look, we'll find the limo,
we'll repair it.

Richter will
never know the difference.

Hannibal, can you
think of something?

Well, maybe we can k*ll
two birds with one stone.

We'll give it a try.

[screaming]

[van tires screeching]

[screaming]

[g*n f*ring]

[tires screeching]

Thank goodness
you guys got here.

You wanna tell us what's going on?
Sure.

You can't park here.

It's illegal to park
within 30 feet of a corner.

[birds chirping]

(Elaine)
They took the envelope...

that Barry left for you
at the reunion.

(Face)
Well, what was on it?

A note. Something like...

"A lot of people
are after this.

"I'm sure you'll recognize it
and know what to do."

Me? Why would I recognize it?
I don't know.

Well, there was
an old map, too.

An old map?

Yeah, like something
out of an Errol Flynn movie.

No, it couldn't be.
It was 20 years ago.

Could you draw us this map?
Yeah, I think so.

Wait a second. Wait a second.
Wait. Wait a minute.

Did it curve around at the
bottom, here, like this?

Yeah.
Yeah.

And then up here...

this part looked like the boot of
Italy turned around backwards?

I think it needs to be
colored in over here.

Get out of here,
would you?

And then, there was a little square
right over here, like that, right?

That's it, that's it!
You saw it?

What is it, Face?
It's a treasure map.

A treasure map?

This is a map to
Long John Silver's treasure.

[imitating pirate's speech]
Well, shiver me timbers...

he's discovered the map
to the sunken treasure.

Well, it's not the real map,
see, I drew it.

You traced it, actually.

From Treasure Island, Scribner's
Edition, 1951, I believe.

It had a parrot
on the cover.

It just so happens
it was Rand McNally, 1916...

but you're right
about the parrot.

Yes, but you happen
to be mistaken.

Look, I'm the one
who traced it.

(Hannibal) And gave it
to your friend, Barry.

(Face)
No. Well, I sold it to him.

We were kids. (Elaine)
I can't believe it.

He always told me
you were his friend.

I was his friend.
lam his friend.

You don't sell a map
like that to just anybody.

(Hannibal) How many times
did you con this guy, Face?

I bet he was
your number one stooge.

(Elaine) He talked
about you constantly.

Always told me what a great guy you were.
I am a great guy.

Barry was interested in pirates, and
for $20, I sold him a treasure map.

I'm glad I didn't know you
when I was a kid.

[chuckling]

No, wait. You can't do that!
Oh, no?

I can't believe it. We come to
help you, and what do you do?

You fingered my limo right
outside a place of worship!

I'm sorry.

I didn't know it was your car,
but it was illegally parked.

Yeah, well, maybe now you'll think
of retrieving my vehicle...

from the Army Tow Corp.

Look, could we stick to one
problem at a time here?

Why would those guys
want a phony pirate map...

that Face gave Barry
20 years ago?

[mumbling]

[imitating pirate]

(Morgan) You're gonna show
us how to read this thing!

You gotta take us
to the treasure!

There is no treasure!

That thing is worthless!

I'm getting tired of hearing
that tune, laddie. Too bad.

This is where the sharks
come to feed, you know?

What do you say we chum
up the waters, hey, boys?

[gasps]

Wouldn't you rather come up here
and talk to us on the boat?

All right! All right!
Pull me up!

Sounds like
he's changed his mind.

Shall we pull him in, Captain?
Pull me up!

Morgan, shall we
haul him up?

Hurry up! Hurry up!
Pull me up!

All right, pull him up.

Hurry up! Hurry up!
Pull me up! Hurry up!

You're gonna take us on a
little treasure hunt today.

There is no treasure.

Look, they pay you to catch the
fish to feed the dolphins.

They pay me to find
the exotic fish for the park.

That's all that I do.
Don't lie to me, boy!

You went to a great deal of trouble
to get that map to your sister.

And when we find her,
she won't be a pretty sight.

Put him back in the drink.

No! All right, all right.

I'll take you on your...

I'll take you on your treasure hunt,
and I'll show you how to read the map.

And it better
be a successful hunt.

Or I'll cut you up and deliver
you to the shark t*nk.

[squawking]

It's in here.
It's in here.

[Murdock squawking]
Put that book down, fool!

[squawking]
The parrot's never wrong.

You should always listen to the parrot.
He has all of the answers.

If you'd asked him, he would tell you
to check the Scribner's Edition.

(Hannibal) Does this look familiar?
That's it!

That's exactly
what it looked like!

Yeah, yeah, I traced it right out
of the book. There, see? Yeah.

Of course, I sort of
Californiaized it, you know?

Changed
"Here There Be Tygers"...

to "Paradise Cove,"
and like that.

Face, did you really sell your
best friend a fake treasure map?

B.A., I needed
the money, okay?

You know, Hannibal, I'm
worried about Rebecca.

I mean, what if the
m*llitary has detained her?

Well, if they detained her...

it's because they wanted to take
back the reward they paid her.

Anyway, somebody thinks this is
important enough to kidnap for.

Come on, Hannibal. That's right
out of fantasyland! You know...

Well...

of course, if there was a
treasure, I'd own half of it...

because I sold him
the map in the first place.

Face?

Okay, okay, Barry owns
the whole thing, okay?

He'd want me to have half 'cause
he's a friend of mine, but...

Does this have
any legitimacy at all?

I mean, does it pertain to
any real place of any kind?

Of course,
I was always very accurate.

I measured distances
and everything.

Barry was
a very sharp kid.

He was just
a little gullible.

If only we had a parrot,
he'd have all the answers.

We've gotta find
Barry's parrot.

I don't think
Barry has a parrot.

Long John Silver had a parrot.
Blackbeard had a parrot.

Bluebeard had a parrot. He wasn't
even a pirate, but he had a parrot.

Hey, man.
We ain't got a parrot.

Look. Says it right here,
Colonel. Look at that.

Pirates often talked
to their parrots...

and the parrots repeated
what the pirates pronounced.

[chuckling] Well, that's
a great help, Murdock.

[mimicking a pirate]

What do you wanna do,
Captain?

What any self-respecting
pirate would do.

We go after the treasure.

All right,
the map says...

100 paces from the
juncture of the dock...

and the sea wall
at 240 degrees.

That's that way, 100 paces would
be just beyond that sand dune.

(Face)
Boy, this is ridiculous.

There were no pirates
in California.

It is plain you've never heard of
the bloody Frenchman, Bouchard.

You mean we're really
gonna dig?

I think Barry was trying to send
Face some kind of a message.

I think he wants us
to dig in this spot.

Hey! Hey, that's
my treasure!

Those are the guys
from the house!

[g*ns f*ring]

Not very friendly,
are they?

Oh, I'm so glad you're all right.
You found them.

Yeah, I went to the reunion,
I found your letter.

Thank you.

What are you doing with those, Temp?
Hunting for buried treasure?

[chuckling]

(Face)
Sending me that phony map.

Barry, I mean, why didn't you just send
me a note telling me you had a problem?

Look, I couldn't
take the chance, Temp.

I had those jokers
all over my case...

trying to find out where the
Santissima was located.

I knew you'd recognize the fake
map and realize I needed help.

Wait a minute,
what is the Santissima?

It's a 17th century
Spanish galleon.

It was on its way back from
the Philippines to Spain...

when it was intercepted off Dana Point
by a French privateer named Bouchard.

[stuttering]
Bouchard?

No, Bouchard.

Now, the Captain scuttled
the ship, he sunk it...

Thanks.

...to keep Bouchard from getting
his hands on the treasure.

What treasure? The usual,
you know, gold, silver...

and something
far more important.

Philip's Cross.
What's Philip's Cross?

It was a birthday present from the
governor general of the Philippines...

to his Catholic Majesty,
Philip of Spain.

Well, what makes it
so valuable?

This cross is made of solid
gold encrusted with jewels.

Emeralds, rubies
and sapphires--

Hey, this is getting interesting.
(Face) Come on, Barry.

Where'd you come up with
this cockamamie treasure?

I mean, some old sailor
sell you a treasure map?

Everything I'm telling you about the
Santissima and Philip's Cross...

is absolute historical fact. You
can check it out at any library.

I believe you.
Makes perfect sense.

Are you gonna
eat that pickle?

No. No, help yourself.

Well, if it's so valuable, why
hasn't someone gone after it before?

They have. There have been literally
hundreds of attempts over the years...

but nobody could
ever find the wreck.

And then you come along
and, bingo!

Hardly bingo.

It's taken me five years
using a computer...

to figure the currents and tidal
changes, continental drift...

anything that could shift
the position of the wreck.

And...

from the Santissima's timbers.

Guys...

I say we help him
find the cross.

Great! Thank you. Thanks.

But you have to realize...

the ship belongs to Marineland
once we pull it up.

They want to haul it back
and turn it into an exhibit.

As for the cross, I would like
to return it to the church.

Actually, to Angels
Guardian Orphanage.

Oh, yeah,
that's a great idea, Barry.

I guess.

(Barry)
Temp, you know...

I really got to thank you
for helping me out.

I feel kind of guilty since I took advantage
of you so often when we were kids.

Took advantage of me?
You took advantage of me?

What about the time I conned
you out of your tennis shoes?

I learned to run barefoot. Set
a state record for the 440.

Oh, Bobby Moore's bike?

Bobby and I came out
of it great friends.

You know, he's one of LA's top tax lawyers.
Does my returns for free.

The phony treasure map?

(Barry)
Ended up saving my life.

You know,
I really owe you, buddy.

Yes, you never
can tell, Face.

Tell me, do you have a chart
showing the location of the wreck?

Sure, it's in my office...

but, you know, Morgan and his g*ons
probably have the place staked out.

That's okay,
we'll pick it up.

I bet this Bouchard is
real mean.

Black hair, black heart,
black beard.

I bet even his parrot
is blood-thirsty.

Well, I don't know.

Actually, none of my research
turned up any mention of a parrot.

He had a parrot.
They all did.

You cool it
with this parrot, Murdock.

There is no parrot, and I don't
wanna hear another word about it.

Well, actually, that's who has the
real treasure map, my parrot.

See, the chart's in the bottom of
my parrot's cage in my office.

Enough said.

[parrot squawking]

(Morgan)
Damn bird!

If you don't shut your beak,
I'll make soup out of you!

Nothing in the desk, Captain.

(parrot)
Hello.

What's going on here?

We was just looking for a clue
to finding Barry, Mr. Maitland.

Well, in the future, you'll confine
your activities to delivering fish.

[parrot razzing]

[parrot laughing]

Boy, Barry, you were playing
an awful long sh*t...

leaving that note for me
at the reunion.

Well, not really. Rebecca Piper kept
calling me about trying to find you.

There, you see?
Huh?

She seemed to think you'd show up
there, but she wanted to make sure.

Kept saying something
about having...

tens of thousands of reasons
for wanting to find you.

[chuckling]

Well, I'm not going to say a word.
Yeah, well...

Wait a second.

That's the car of the guys
who tried to kidnap me.

(Hannibal)
Are you sure?

Yeah, I remember the right tail
light was out. I wanted to tag him.

Good. Maybe you can cut me a
citation, tow me a limo today...

since we owe one
to Dr. Richter.

Murdock, let's deal with
one disaster at a time.

You know where you're going?
Dolphin Building, 211.

Map's at the bottom of the parrot cage.
Right. You and Face get the chart.

Elaine and I'll make a couple
of calls about Dr. Richter.

That's a good idea,
Colonel. Aye-aye, sir.

Well, it looks like
they b*at us here, Face.

Yeah, as long as
they didn't find that chart.

It's a nice bird.
Nice bird.

Pretty bird.
Pretty bird.

Here we go.

[parrot growling]

Hey, hey, hey.
Come on, here.

Look, I'm a friend
of Barry's, okay?

Yeah, somebody has told him about
your relationship.
Very funny.

All right now.
Easy, easy.

I think he's carnivorous.

Come off of it, Face.
Parrots are not carnivorous.

You just got him
all riled up.

Let the master take over.
Sure. Sure. By all means.

Nice, birdie.
Nice birdie, birdie, birdie.

See. You just have to show them
that you don't mean them any harm.

(Face)
He's setting you up.

[parrot squawks]

This parrot is
a man-eater.

Tell you what, let's let Barry get
the chart out of the cage, huh?

That's a good idea.
Come on, let's go.

[squawking]

Where are we going?
Where are we going?

[parrot whistling]

(man on PA system) And up she goes!
Oh, Soc“!

[women screaming]

[parrot whistling]

Keep your eyes on the center of the
pool and get your cameras ready.

[parrot squawking]

Here comes Rosie,
Gypsy and Noodles.

[grunting]

Around they go!

[parrot squawking]

That concludes our dolphin
show, ladies and gentlemen.

Thanks for being such a great audience.
Do come back and see us again.

[people cheering]

(Barry) Hey, you brought
the whole cage.

How you doing, Kidd?
Hello, there.

Any word on the limo?

Well, I called
the army tow yard.

Bad news, Murdock.
They cut it up.

Oh, great, just great.

[squawking]

Hey, you really
got him perturbed.

I'm sorry, we didn't have
time to make friends.

Let me try.

[squawking]

One wrong move, bird, and you're
a feather duster. Got it?

(parrot)
Nice bird, pretty bird.

Now we need a boat.

Please, Lieutenant, you said
you would control your temper.

Yo, Skipper.
ls there a problem?

Is there a problem? I got a dead
porpoise at the maritime morgue...

with a Short's beer bottle
sticking out of its head...

and you want to know
if I got a problem?

Lieutenant, please.
Your name, sir?

Don't tell him nothing, Pa. They can't
prove it's your bottle that did it.

Shut up, Alfred.
(Face) That's it.

That's it.
You, get out of the boat.

Get out of the boat.

Failing to provide
identification...

to an officer involved
in a legal investigation...

that's coming close
to a felony, sir.

It's Gruber. Murray Gruber! Now, how
much is a fish like that worth, huh?

$1 a pound, $2?

$500, $1,000, how much is it worth?
How much?

One of the most intelligent
mammals on the face of the earth.

A protected species.
And you offer me a bribe?

That's it! This vessel
and its contents...

are hereby impounded by the
United States Coast Guard!

You can't take my boat!
Oh, yeah?

No!

You might like to swim to the
harbormaster's office...

where you can
contact an attorney.

You might want to press
charges against the officer.

The cross is in the captain's cabin
which is under the stern castle.

The tall structure in the back?
You got it.

Good luck.

Yeah, this is a nice bird.

[screaming]

Sorry.

Well, maybe he's getting even with me
for everything I did to you as a kid.

Wait. Wait.

Temp, do you remember
the day...

that you conned me out of
my Allman Brothers tickets?

Listen, Barry,
I never realized...

how hard I was on you
back then.

And it's just that you were so easy.
You were like a proving ground to me.

No, no, see...

that was the day Elaine and her
family came to the orphanage.

I had to be you for a couple of hours
while you were gone, remember?

Yeah.

They really liked me, and that was
the day they decided to adopt me.

I told them
the truth later.

You told them you were me,
and they adopted you?

Yeah. Well,
that was the deal.

That was the switch
we made for my tickets.

Oh.

How was the concert?

I've got it!

I'll take that, thank you.

Well, now,
ain't that something?

(Murdock) That's a
sacred relic, Morgan.

You keep that, you'll be
doomed for all eternity.

I'll take me chances.

How did you find us?

I got the location of the
wreck out of your computer.

You can work
a computer?

No, but Maitland can if you
put a g*n in his back.

(Morgan) All right, all of
you, face down on the deck.

Move it!
You're gonna k*ll us?

You and the girl, maybe.

But the others are worth a lot
more alive, being the A-Team.

And you got the cross, and you
want a reward on top of that?

Gotta live on something before we can
bust this thing up and fence it.

I radioed the army, Captain.
They'll be waiting at the dock.

Good. After you've
delivered them...

meet us back
at the salvage yard.

[parrot squawking]

[grunting]

You okay, Colonel?

That bird will
eat anything.

[sirens wailing]

[chuckling]

Come on!

Well, she doesn't look that
great coming out of the shower.

I really don't know
what you see in her.

Right.

[g*n f*ring]

[police siren malfunctioning]

Melted down, the gold alone ought
to be worth over half a million.

On top of that,
the jewels.

[engine revving]

[grunting]

This belongs
to somebody else, pal.

I had to grab this limo from
the secretary of the army...

so I want this
to go down smooth.

From the time
Peck gets in this limo...

we need 15 minutes before we get to
the ambush spot, do you understand?

(Rebecca)
15 minutes?

How am I supposed to keep him
occupied for 15 minutes?

Just do anything you gotta do, baby.
It's a big reward.

Templeton,
I am so sorry.

I knew they made you do it.

[stammering]
I just knew it.

And, Rebecca, I want you
to know that I understand.

Okay?
Well, it's all over now.

And we've got a lot
of catching up to do.

Yeah. There's champagne
in the limo.

Okay?
Yeah...

Here we are.

No, I think... I feel
really funny about this.

I think you should drop me off.
Driver-- No, no, Templeton. No.

I wanna be alone with you.

Yeah.
Really, I do.

Oh. Yes.

I've been waiting
a long time for this.

Was it worth the wait?

More than you can
possibly imagine.

I gotta tell you something.
Hmm.

You're still
a minor leaguer.

No reward this time,
sweetheart.

How was the ride,
Lieutenant?

Well, it's nothing worth writing
the alumni newsletter about.
