An Officer and a Gentleman1982
[Foley continues taunting Mayo, and calls him out on why he joined the course]
Foley:
You only give a sh*t about yourself. All your classmates know it. Do you think they would trust you behind the controls of a plane? You'd probably zip off in my F-14 and sell it to the Cubans.
Mayo:
No, sir! No, sir! I love my country.
Foley:
Sell it to the Air Force, Mayo. Sell it to the Air Force! [moves to his head] Talk to me. Now why would a slick hustler like you sign up for this abuse?
Mayo:
I want to fly jets.
Foley:
My grandmama wants to fly jets.
Mayo:
I wanted it since I was a kid!
Foley:
We're not talking about flying. We're talking about character!
Mayo:
I've changed. I've changed since I've been here.
Foley:
The hell you have.
Mayo:
I've changed, sir!
Foley:
No, you've just polished your act a little bit. You just shined it up! [moves up to concrete slab and looks down on Mayo] Now tell me what I want to hear. I want your DOR.
Mayo:
No sir.
Foley:
I want your DOR.
Mayo:
I ain't going to quit.
Foley:
Spell it! D-O-R.
Mayo:
I ain't gonna quit!
Foley:
Yeah then you can be free, and you and your daddy can get drunk and go whore-chasing together!
Mayo:
No, sir!
Foley:
DOR.
Mayo:
I ain't going to quit!
Foley:
Alright then, you can forget it! [tries to leave] You're OUT!
Mayo:
Don't you do it! Don't! You... I GOT NOWHERE ELSE TO GO! I got nowhere else to g... I got nothin' else.
Foley:
All right Mayo, on your feet.
