Leverage, Season 4

[Flashback]

Lieutenant:
Did I send for you, supply?

Charlie:
I killed that sniper. You know it. I know it. Everyone knows it.

Lieutenant:
McClusky fired the shot. It's in my report.

Charlie:
It's a lie.

Lieutenant:
You're calling me a liar?

Charlie:
Yes, sir, I am.

Lieutenant:
This war is almost over. Think about what you're doing right now.

Charlie:
Don't you tell me to think, lieutenant. My thinking saved your life! But I won't get the credit because I'm a negro, isn't that right?

Lieutenant:
That's right. It's not the policy of the United States Government to hand out medals to negroes. Therefore, private McClusky fired the shot that killed the sniper, making him, and not you, a candidate for the bronze star. That's just the way it is, Charlie. You don't have to like it, but that's the way it is.
