Major Dad1989
Maj. John D. 'Mac' McGillis:
Lieutenant, I have the oppritunity to score some points at home, but it necessitates me asking you a favor.
Lt. Eugene 'Gene' Holowachuk:
Shoot.
Maj. John D. 'Mac' McGillis:
[pacing around Holowachuk] Not that easy. I don't like favors. You ask somebody a favor, you owe them a favor. Ask a favor back, you have to do it. All of the sudden you have a relationship. You wind up trading favors back and forth, back and forth for years. Befoe you know it you're delivering a eulogy for somebody you don't even like!
Lt. Eugene 'Gene' Holowachuk:
What's the favor, sir?
Maj. John D. 'Mac' McGillis:
All right, look: you're free to say "no" but if you say "yes", don't expect anything more than a "thank you"; no extra leave, no light duty.
Lt. Eugene 'Gene' Holowachuk:
No treats?
Maj. John D. 'Mac' McGillis:
No, none of that. Scuttlebutt around here, word's bound to leak out, I might, I might even push you a little harder.
Lt. Eugene 'Gene' Holowachuk:
Got it, sir; I do you a favor, you make my life a living Hell.
Maj. John D. 'Mac' McGillis:
Right.
Lt. Eugene 'Gene' Holowachuk:
Bring on the favor.
