Vilmer:
[singing in holding cell] Nobody had to scratch my back... [Hardy and Osbourne enter]
Vilmer:
Hey, Julie bird, you bitch, I'm hungry. Why don't you go get me a snack. Guess I will be catching a ride with Pike?
Hardy:
[thinking] What was that?
Vilmer:
I didn't mean to call her bitch.
Hardy:
No after that...
Vilmer:
What?... I will be on the same transport as Pike.
Osbourne:
You mean Dunbar...
Vilmer:
[complacent] No... that's not right.
Hardy:
Why not?
Vilmer:
Tom... Ray Dunbar is Black. [flashback to Sgt. West's browbeating of Pike with Dunbar in his place]

Osbourne:
[hits Vilmer in the nose with a phone book] Now see, what I just did is considered illegal. Which means I'll be discharged from the army. Which means no law school. So I really have nothing to lose...

Osbourne:
[voiceover] The French tried to build a canal here before the Americans. At the height of their effort, 500 workers were dying every week from malaria and yellow fever. They couldn't come up with cemetery space fast enough, not to mention the morale problem all those crosses would have made. So they bought shiploads of vinegar in Cuba, and in each barrel, they sealed one corpse. And then they sold them as medical cadavers all over Europe. And for a while, that was their principal source of profit. You see, this place has always had a special way of dealing with both profit and death.

Dunbar:
You think you know everything? You haven't even scratched the surface.
Hardy:
I know enough to know that you've got two choices. You can either sign a confession and spend the rest of your life in a cell. Or you can tell us to fuck off, and you'll be hanged. Now, am I scratching... *your* surface yet?
