Algren:
[To one Japanese soldier] Load. [to Simon Graham] Mr. Graham, tell this man to fire at me!

Simon Graham:
I beg your pardon?

Algren:
[Pulls out his pistol and c*cks it] Tell this man that if he does not shoot me, I will kill him.

Sgt. Gant:
Captain, if I might have a word...

[Algren fires his pistol at the soldier's feet, making everyone except Gant and Bagley jump.]

Algren:
Tell him... tell him! [Re-c*cks his pistol]

[Graham hurriedly translates for the soldier. Shocked and wide-eyed at Algren's command, the soldier looks at Algren and frantically shakes his head.]

Algren:
Load!

[He fires again, this time knocking the soldier's hat off. The soldier hurriedly re-loads his rifle.]

Algren:
Faster! [fires again] Faster!

[The soldier loads as fast as possible, discarding his ramrod in his haste.]

Algren:
Shoot me, damn it.

[The soldier c*cks his rifle and aims at Algren, but, almost as though he understands Algren's command, shakes his head and refuses to shoot.]

Algren:
Fire! Fire, ute!

[Algren fires his last shot. The soldier aims quickly and pulls his trigger, narrowly missing Algren and hitting the sandbag behind him. Algren lowers his gun, sighs in disappointment, then holsters his gun and pats the soldier on the shoulder, who almost collapses from fear.]

Algren:
[to Bagley] They're not ready.

Colonel Bagley:
[to the rest of the army] The regiment leaves at 6 AM!
