[in a flashback, General Campbell finds his daughter Elisabeth Campbell, displaying the recreation of the rape]
Capt. Elisabeth Campbell:
Here's the answer to your damn ultimatum!
Lt. Gen. Joseph Campbell:
Jesus Christ!
Capt. Elisabeth Campbell:
Do you see what they did to me? Do you see? Don't turn away, you coward! Come closer! Get a better look! See what they put me through!
Lt. Gen. Joseph Campbell:
[General Campbell screams out] What the f*** do you hope to accomplish?
Capt. Elisabeth Campbell:
There's a rope around my neck. You can strangle me if you want to, or you can just cover it up like you did before.
Lt. Gen. Joseph Campbell:
Have you gone completely out of your mind?
Capt. Elisabeth Campbell:
[Elisabeth stares up at the night sky] It happened. It happened! I want to hear you say it happened!
Lt. Gen. Joseph Campbell:
[General Campbell callously responds] I don't give a damn what happened to you seven years ago!
Capt. Elisabeth Campbell:
Whatever hurts you makes me stronger. That which does not destroy me makes me stronger!
Lt. Gen. Joseph Campbell:
You can't hurt me anymore. We're even.
Capt. Elisabeth Campbell:
That's fine with me. You never helped me!
Capt. Elisabeth Campbell:
[General Campbell turns around and leaves Elisabeth tied down in the nude] Daddy, please don't go. Come back... Please. Please don't... Daddy...
[General Campbell gets in the car and drives away]
