JAG (1995–2005): Season 2, Episode 13 - Code Blue - full transcript

You're keeping up a pretty
good pace for an old man.

The last couple of
miles are a cool down.

Oh, really? How far
are you going today?

The usual, 10 miles. You?

The usual, 15.

Harm?

Call 911.

Hang in there, Harm.

You're gonna be okay.

I win.

Ooh-rah.



Following in his father's
footsteps as a naval aviator,

Lieutenant Commander
Harmon Rabb, Junior,

suffered a crash while landing his
Tomcat on a storm-tossed carrier at sea.

Diagnosed with night blindness,

Harm transferred to the Navy's
Judge Advocate General Corps,

which investigates, defends
and prosecutes the law of the sea.

There, with fellow JAG
lawyer, Major Sarah MacKenzie,

he now fights in and
out of the courtroom

with the same daring and tenacity
that made him a Top Gun in the air.

The West Bank Peace
Talks have been put on hold

as the Israeli Minister for West
Bank Security and Defense,

Semadar Barruch, is being rushed
to Washington's Mercy Hospital.

Barruch has been on a waiting
list for a heart transplant operation

since a rare bacterial infection



damaged his heart
muscles several months ago.

We've learned a donor
heart has been found

and it's on its way
to Washington.

As I speak, a crack
heart transplant team

headed up by cardiologist
Gary Sugarman,

is prepping Barruch for the complicated
eight hour transplant operation.

How are you feeling,
Minister Barruch?

A little light-headed.

Well, that's the Meperedine.

It's just to help
you relax a little bit.

Now, we just received
word that your new heart

is arriving from Dulles Airport.

So we're gonna go
ahead and get started.

Everything's gonna
be fine, all right?

Tomorrow you're going to
wake up with a new heart.

If you act now, we might
even throw in a free oil change.

Excuse me... Uh-uh. Sorry,
guys. Club members only.

I'm Special Agent Alison
Jacks, Secret Service.

This is Agent Makaway,
Israeli Mossad. Yeah, I know.

We are not to let the Minister
Barruch out of our sight.

I know. I know. But trust
me, he's not going anywhere.

I'm sorry, but we
have our orders.

Look, guys... Excuse...

Okay.

I'll allow one of
you inside the OR.

The other can wait out here.
All right? This is the only way in.

Fine. I'll stay here.

All right.

Let's get you scrubbed up.

This is Jacks. Tin
Man is with the Wizard.

His name is Rabb. Harmon Rabb.

I brought him in
over an hour ago.

Spell it.

H-a-r-m-o-n R-a-b-b.

He was hit by a car.

And you're sure
they took him here?

I brought him in myself.

He's not in the computer.

Reception.

Hi! So, what does that mean?

Either he hasn't been admitted or
he was taken straight to the morgue.

Yeah.

Would you like me to check?

Yes, please.

You know, it's
really not that bad.

What's that?

Antibiotics. You gave
yourself a pretty nasty gash,

in addition to some ligament
damage and a slight concussion.

I'll have our orthopedic
specialist have a look at your leg.

I'd like to keep you
overnight for observations.

In the hospital?

Well, I think it's a little
early in our relationship

for you to stay at my place.

Oh.

You know, I'm used to being
banged around. I was a fighter pilot.

And I used to be a
professional wrestler.

I'll send your girlfriend in to see
you. She's outside asking about you.

Oh, you mean my partner.

I'm between relationships.

Well, let's fix one thing
at a time, shall we?

That shot might make
you sleep for awhile.

I'll check up on you
in a couple hours.

If you feel up to it,
I'll buy you a coffee.

Oh, is that part
of my treatment?

No. Just curious to see you
walk around in a hospital gown.

Nurse? Hmm?

Where's the head?

Huh?

The men's room? Hmm.

How are you feeling, sailor?

Like I was hit by a car.

They want me to spend the night.

So maybe you could get a
24-hour recess in the Meritt case.

Bud's already working on it.

Good.

Well, you, uh, you
had me worried, Harm.

I mean, nobody was
telling me anything.

Well, it looked a lot
worse than it was.

I've had harder
carrier landings.

Well, I want to, um...

I want to thank you for
pushing me out of the way.

Oh, hey, it was nothing
you wouldn't have done.

If you'd been a little faster.

Oh, some of us are built
for speed, others for comfort.

Nonetheless, I owe you one.
So if there's anything you need...

I'm a little hungry.

Could you get me something to
eat from the hospital cafeteria?

You're braver than I thought.

PH is 7.35.

- Is the patient asleep?
- Yes, Doctor.

All right, ladies and gentlemen,

we've got four hours
to get this heart out.

Let's say we get busy.

Well, Agent Makaway, I hope
you can stand the sight of blood.

Scalpel.

Excuse me, uh,
where's the cafeteria?

Third floor off the
elevator to your left.

Thanks.

Oh! I found your Commander Rabb.

Yeah. So did I. He's, uh,
he's in emergency room four.

Not for long.

They're sending him to room 307.

307, thanks.

About how Barruch's operation
will affect the Peace Talks,

but spokespersons
from both sides say

the talks will continue
in his absence.

Member of the Israeli
Intelligence Service, Mossad,

before entering politics.

Many people both in Israel
and abroad credit Barruch...

What are you in for?

Lost an argument with a car.

I'm in for some
new parts myself.

Getting my hip replaced.

When you get to be my
age, things start falling apart.

I'm just glad the
plumbing still works.

Most of the time.

Are you Navy?

Yeah, Lieutenant
Commander Rabb, JAG Corps.

Chief Walter Hume.

USS Gallant.

You know, we sank four
U-boats during the Big One.

Now, that was before taking a
depth charge off of Newfoundland.

Let's see, that was in, uh,

February the 22, 1942.

A German destroyer
hunted us for six days.

And we were
practically crippled.

We had, you know, no lights

and sucking diesel fumes.

They just kept pounding us.

That they will engage in...

Uh, the agent downstairs
asked me to deliver this to you.

Dixon?

He didn't tell me his name.
Just to bring you coffee.

Thank you. Wonder what's
made Nick so thoughtful.

Um, maybe he likes you?

Get a gurney!

Seventy years old

and never been in a
damn hospital my whole life.

Nope,

not this sailor.

Makes one wonder if

Minister Barruch's condition

is a direct result of being...

It's really nothing
to be afraid of, Chief.

Who says anything
about being afraid?

They do hip replacements
every day. It's a routine operation.

I ain't afraid of nothing.

Well, every ship needs a little
retrofitting now and then, Chief.

Yeah, that's true.

I guess it's better
than being scrapped.

What are you doing?

I'm talking to you.

Move away from the door!

$4.99.

You got my heart?

Stop! Who are you?

Call security! Now!

Leave him! Continue
the operation.

He's dying! He's
not the concern.

I am Mustapha Ben Kessar

and this hospital is now
under the control of the Hamas.

What have we got?

They've taken over two floors,
and locked off the elevators.

This is Special Agent Lang.

I am Mustapha Ben Kessar.

The United States
has illegally imprisoned

an innocent political
leader of the Islamic people.

Saw.

Unless the American
authorities release

Mousa Mohammed Abu Marzook

the Hamas will terminate the
operation on Minister Barruch

and he will die.

That sounds fair
enough, Mustapha.

So how about getting things rolling
by releasing the patients up there

so we can move them to
another part of the hospital?

No.

They will remain where they are.

Clamp.

Marzook will be
taken to JFK airport.

He will be flown to Damascus
aboard the government jet.

When he has touched down safely,

I will release Minister Barruch,

I will release the hostages and
turn the hospital back over to you.

We have wired explosives

on all the stairwell doors.
Do not attempt a rescue.

Okay, let's crack 'em.

Marzook. He's still in New
York awaiting extradition...

Get Justice on the line. They're
never gonna let him leave.

See if they'll at least
transport Marzook to the airport.

We need something
to bargain with

to get those hostages
out before we get in there.

Get somebody from the
Bomb Squad over here.

Commander, did you hear that?

Commander, did you hear that?

I'm trying to talk to you.

If you'd get those things
out of your ears so I could...

Did you hear that?

What is it now, Walter?

I heard gun shots.

It's a Western.

With automatic weapons?

I'm telling you, it came
from inside the hospital.

Something ain't going right.

I mean, they don't
even answer my call bell.

Phone's dead.

How can they expect
to fix a man's hip

when they can't even
keep the phones working?

What?

What are you doing?

Well, what are you doing?

Whoa. I... I don't think you've
got your sea legs, Commander.

Look, whatever
it is, I'll do it.

But just tell me what you want.

Walter, wait here!

Aye, aye, sir.

Scalpel. NURSE 1: Scalpel.

Presses are on 10
and 10 right now.

Where the hell is everybody?

Are you in labor?

No. I'm here to have my teeth
cleaned. What's it look like?

Let's get you back in your room.

What's going on out there?
I thought I heard gunshots.

I'm not sure.

Why aren't you
in a delivery room?

I just came in for some tests.

I'm not due for two weeks.

My husband's on some
kind of a fishing trip.

Do you believe it?

I asked him, I said, "What
happens if I go early?"

And you know what he said?

"You're late for everything.

"Besides, trout
season starts today."

Oh, I hope he gets
eaten by a bear.

Oh, if this is the first stage,
I am not gonna make it.

My sister says natural
childbirth is beautiful.

She says it's the only way
babies were meant to be born.

God, I hate her!

I feel like Sigourney
Weaver in Alien.

Please give me an epidural!

I'm gonna get a doctor.

No! Wait, don't leave me.

Please! I'm scared.

I'll be right back. I promise.

You can't keep us in here.
I have patients out there.

People's lives are at stake!

I have to leave! You are going
to have to shoot me to stop me.

Mustapha.

What's wrong?

It's Tamir. I just saw a doctor.

He looked like he was trying
to disarm one of the doors.

Where is he now?

I don't know. He
disappeared. But, uh,

he has to be on
this floor somewhere.

Call Zaki, find this man,

and kill him.

It's all right.
You'll be all right.

Are you okay? I think so.

What language is that?

It's Farsi. My
grandmother's Persian.

What did you say to them?

I told them not to shoot, that
you were just trying to help.

Thanks. Who are these guys?

My guess is Jihad
or Hamas terrorists.

They're here for Barruch.

Please, somebody help me?

She could be going into
cardiac arrest. Let me help...

It's okay. You're gonna be okay.

You just take a couple
deep breaths for me, all right?

That's two I owe you.

I'm Jenna. Mac.

You're with the
good-looking sailor

who doesn't look both
ways before crossing a street.

Yeah, his name's Harm.

I hope your friend Harm
is staying out of trouble.

If I know Harm, he isn't.

This is Lang.

I want to speak to Marzook.

Okay. We'll set up
a phone line for you.

It may take a
little time, but...

I want to speak to him now!

I understand that, but
these things take time.

Time is something
you do not have!

If I do not speak to Marzook in
15 minutes, I will kill a hostage.

Tamir?

Zaki? Where are you?

We're in ICU looking for the man who
tried to disable the bomb on the door.

Kill a patient.

It is done. You heard
him. Kill one of them.

What's wrong, Zaki?

Killing innocent people
wasn't part of the plan.

If we must sacrifice one life

to save a thousand, so be it.

Your brother Rafat knew this.

He gave his life for our cause.

Do you not wish to avenge
your brother's death?

Y-Yes, but... Then
show us, Zaki.

Show us you're committed
to freeing our people.

The whole world
is waiting, Zaki.

Do it for your brother,

for Allah,

for Islam.

But do it.

No, you listen to me. I need
Marzook on the phone in five minutes.

We got gunfire upstairs and
the elevator's coming down.

Five minutes!

Come on.

Come on.

Damn!

They've got Marzook on
a phone from the plane.

Mustapha.

Lang. You killed a hostage
after you said we had 15 minutes.

My watch must be fast.

If I do not speak to Marzook
now, I will kill another patient.

Don't kill anyone.
I've got Marzook.

Hang on. I'll connect you.

Hello?

Is Karen there?

I'm sorry. You'll
have to call her back.

You're going to love this.

We got a Navy Lieutenant
Commander upstairs on a cell phone.

What's your situation,
Commander?

Right now I'm in the ICU,

but I have a couple of
armed terrorists up here

who are trying to
put me in the morgue.

Just sit tight, Commander.
Don't try anything heroic.

These guys just
killed a hostage.

Was he an old man,
full beard, long grey hair?

You knew him?

Not really. When I found him,
he was in full cardiac arrest.

I tried to save him,
but, uh, he was gone.

They shot a dead man?

Uh-huh.

Are you trying to tell me that
these terrorists have a conscience?

Just one of them.
His name's Zaki.

From what I could pick up,

his brother Rafat was killed when
one of their operations went sour.

Now my guess is, he's here
to avenge his brother's death.

But when push came
to shove, he couldn't kill.

He could be their weak
link. How many are there?

Two that I've seen. Zaki
and one named Tamir.

He ordered Zaki
to shoot a hostage.

Which level are you
on? HARM: Three.

Their leader, Mustapha,
is in OR on four.

We estimate that there are at least
five or six of them between the two floors.

We've got SWAT people on
the roof and in the stairwells.

We're going to set up
a coordinated assault

if we cannot negotiate them out.

They've booby-trapped
the stairwell doors.

So they've told us.

Are you an explosives expert?

Not really.

If I put our bomb expert
on the phone with you,

do you think you might be able to
disarm one of the stairwell doors?

I'm willing to give it a try.

Good man.

Call me back on 555-0100
when you're at the door.

555-0100, roger.

The heart's arriving. Let's go.

Suction.

Marzook is aboard the
government jet at JFK.

The heart has
arrived. It is on the roof.

Oh, thank God.

Where is Tamir?

I think he is still
looking for that man.

They will have a
SWAT team on the roof.

Send out a hostage for the
heart in case they try to trick us.

I understand. Zaki.

Yes.

Now that you have killed an
infidel, you are truly one of us.

You, come with me.

It's about time.

No, no. Not you. You.

It's okay. I'll be fine.

Hurry up!

No tricks!

Let's excise the
heart. Scissors.

Put it right there, please.

Open it.

Open it!

Zaki, go help
Tamir find that man.

He worries me.

It makes one wonder if
Minister Barruch's condition

is a direct result of being caught in
the middle of these warring factions

in a land where
death is a part of life.

I'll give you a solution.
Put them all in a damn boat.

Where is Harmon Rabb?

Oh, he's probably
looking for you.

And if you're smart enough, you'll hightail
it out of here before he finds you.

Ha! But I fear no man.

Yeah, well, I guess that makes
you stupid as well as annoying.

I sure as sam hill
would hate to have

a Navy SEAL hunting
me down like a mad dog.

Where death is a part of life.

Peace nothing more
than an elusive...

He is a Navy SEAL?

Oh, yeah. A real killer.

He'll sneak up on you

and snap your skinny
chicken neck just like that.

I know. I taught
that boy everything.

And you are?

Admiral Walter Hume,

United States Navy,

Covert Operations.

Where the hell's my doctor?

Don't yell! Terrorists have
taken over the hospital.

Do you understand?

Terrorists?

Terrorists have
taken over the hospital

while I'm having a baby?

Relax. Relax. Breathe
through the pain.

I'll give you some
pain to breathe through

if you don't get me a doctor!

I will! I will! I will!

Sorry. It's okay.

It's Rabb.

I have a pregnant woman.

I need to speak with a doctor.

Are you sure?
Obstetrics is level two.

You want to tell her she's
not pregnant? Be my guest.

Get me an obstetrician fast.

I've got some intel on
our terrorist, Commander.

Your Tamir has a rap sheet that
reads like the Hamas greatest hits.

But even he's small potatoes
compared to Mustapha.

What about Zaki?

Nothing. He's a
photography student at NYU.

His only link to the group
was his older brother Rafat

who blew himself up planting
a bomb in a London subway.

Zaki doesn't even
have a parking ticket.

Here's your ob-gyn.

This is Doctor Agretto.

How far apart are
her contractions?

Hi. Hi.

Um, she... she's, uh, having
contractions about every three minutes,

lasting about 60 seconds.

Oh, but who's counting?
Ask her if her water's broken?

Did your water break?

Like Niagara Falls.
Two hours ago.

Uh-huh.

Do you know how
to check for dilation?

Uh-uh.

Well, you need to look and
tell me how much she's dilated.

Oh!

What is it? What's wrong?

He wants to know how many
centimeters you're dilated?

Oh, it feels as big
as the Grand Canyon.

Oh, come on. I've got nothing
you haven't seen before.

Well?

Well, I can honestly say I
have never seen that before.

She's about five centimeters.

Five?

Well, maybe six.

Well, look again, buster.

And don't you come back up
until I'm hearing double digits.

Are you sure it's no more
than five or six centimeters?

Uh-huh.

Ask her if this is her first.

Is this your first? Do you
think I'd go through this twice?

First.

You've got an hour. Maybe two.

Thanks, doc.

Okay, he said you safely
have at least an hour.

An hour?

There's no way I'm
doing this for an hour.

No way!

I'm gonna get you
out of here real soon.

I don't want me out of here!

I want her out of here!

How do you know it's a girl?

Ultrasound. They
didn't see a weenie.

I'll be back soon. I promise.

Oh, I hate men. I hate men.

I hate men.

Agent Lang.

Okay. I'm at the third level
fire door, southwest corner.

Here's your expert, Commander.

Third level fire door,
southwest corner! Go! Go!

Yeah. Are you dealing
with C3 explosives?

Yeah. Yeah.

Two bricks of C3 high explosives

with a keypad on the detonator.

Yeah, red wire and a yellow one

attached to what looks
like a magnet switch.

No!

You don't have to shoot
people to kill them, Zaki.

You just leave
them alone to die.

You've killed two people so far.

An old man and
now a young woman.

Body count enough
to avenge Rafat?

I didn't kill them.

The old man was
dead when I shot him

and I don't know
what the girl died from.

She died because the doctors and
nurses your friends are holding hostage

weren't here to save her.

Well, I didn't think
anyone would die.

No excuse.

Under the law, you're
still an accomplice

to first-degree murder.

We... We're not murderers.

We are f-fighting f-for
the freedom of our people.

By killing old men
and young women?

Do you know how many
old men and young women

and even babies we have lost?

Too many.

Doesn't justify killing more.

You're not like
the others, Zaki.

I saw what you did when Tamir
ordered you to shoot a hostage.

I'll testify to that.

And if you'll help me to end
this now, I'll testify to that, too.

This was not what I expected.

It never is.

Can you disarm the booby-trap
on the stairwell doors?

Yes.

Let's do it, Zaki.

Let's put an end to this.

Yeah.

Where are you, Doctor?

Show yourself, Doctor, or I will
shoot every patient in the room.

I'll kill you.

Yeah. In your dreams.

Get 'em both, did you?

Don't sneak up on me like that,
Walter. I could have killed you.

Any sailor worth his salt
knows friend from foe.

I remember in '42, we
were off of Guadalcanal

on a pitch-black night.

And we couldn't see
anything... Not now, Walter.

Help me get him into that bed.

He's one of the bad guys.

Not really. Now come
on, give me a hand.

Well, if you insist. But
I've seen this before.

Yup, the old Helsinki Syndrome.

Pretty soon you'll be
wanting me to call you Tanya.

Walter! Snap to!

Aye, aye, sir.

Walter, what are you doing?

Grab his feet.

That ain't gonna help him.
He's a goner with those wounds.

Chief Pelman was hit like that.

We were on a forward pom-pom
during a kamikaze attack,

when this Zero comes
straight in at us and...

Tell it to him, Walter.

He's unconscious.

Well,

like I said,

we were on the forward pom-pom

when this Zero comes
straight at us, guns blazing.

Tamir.

Tamir, where are
you? This is Mustapha.

Zaki, where is Tamir?

Zaki?

Let's have a look at that heart.

What are you doing?

Without that heart,
this man dies.

Is there anything
else we can do? No.

We can keep him on life support
for only so long. I need that heart.

If this man dies,
you will gain nothing.

He said he doesn't
understand English.

You speak his language? Yes.

What would happen
if your anesthesiologist

bled some of what she's
giving the patient into this room?

Well, we'd all get very
sleepy. And a little silly.

Couldn't we breath oxygen
or something to stay awake?

Okay, people, um,

let's try to make Minister Barruch
as comfortable as possible.

Uh, keep an eye on his vitals.

Doctor Elzinger,

move your backup cart
over here a little closer to me

so I can see it better, please.

Over here.

Yeah, and, uh, bleed off some nitrous
oxide. It's getting a little stuffy in here.

We were on a life raft 33 days.

Damn near set a record.

Catching rain
water with our shirts

and fishing with our dog tags.

Do you know anything
about delivering babies?

Well, now, my wife
Grace had seven kids.

And our second son,
David, was the hardest.

He weighed 11
pounds. Breech birth.

Grace was in labor two days.

Oh, I don't need to hear that.

Oh, I... I'm sorry.

My name's Walter,
little lady. What's yours?

Not "little lady" anymore.

Let me help you. I'll
take you back to the room.

Check my upper suction.

Suction.

Can we get some
oxygen over here.

All right, give him
a shot of Pentothal!

Will you be all right?
Yes, yes. Go, go, go, go.

Shut off that nitrous.

I'm at the southwest
fire door, third level.

How's it going up there?

Two terrorists down.

I don't know how many are left
on this level but it seems empty.

Listen, I tried to get
the elevator going,

but it's locked off
on the fourth floor.

- Going down, sir.
- Yeah, go ahead.

Why don't I just
cut one of the wires?

Oh.

No, I don't like
those odds either.

The elevators are inoperative

and the stairwell doors
are wired with explosives.

How long can you keep him alive?

A few hours.

What are you looking for?

I don't know. A way
to get that heart back.

Woman, you've got
one hell of a scream.

Scared 10 years off of me.

Oh, you ain't heard nothing yet.

Maybe I'd better
boil some water?

I'm having a baby
not poaching eggs!

You know anything
about delivering a baby?

Okay.

The keypad has a dozen fine
wires connected to a computer chip.

There's also, uh,

a 12-volt alkaline battery.

No, I won't touch it

again.

I've got to put this on hold. I've
got a woman screaming in labor.

I've got to go help her.

That woman's in
pain. You have to...

Sit down!

Well,

let's... let's see what
we got here, missy.

Looks like a big one.

Oh, tell me about it.

Who are you?

A doctor?

Not a doctor.

Maybe a patient.
Possibly a visitor.

Putting in a new clip or checking
maybe how many bullets you have?

Police, yes?

Military?

Only a warrior
can silence Tamir.

Are you a warrior?

Answer me!

You know what is happening
in the operating room?

You do or you would
not be fighting us.

They have removed
Minister Barruch's old heart.

They are waiting for this one.

You throw down your weapon
and you can take it to them.

Mustapha. This is
Major MacKenzie.

We've captured
your brother, Abdul.

We will trade him for the heart.

This is Mustapha Ben Kessar.

Leader of the Hamas.

Defender of the Faith.

You touch one hair on my
brother's head and you will all die!

Well, you'll have to
get by me first, hot shot.

We're offering
you a trade. Take it.

It's the best deal
you're going to get.

All right, Major
MacKenzie, you have a deal.

But first I have
an infidel to kill.

You are out of bullets.

Before I kill you,

I just want to
know, who are you?

Lieutenant Commander
Harmon Rabb, Junior.

But my call sign is Zapper.

No, I can't do it.

He's brain dead, isn't he?

Yes, but his heart may not
match the tissue and blood type.

And just as important, we need
the permission of his relatives.

It's being faxed over now.

The Chief Palestinian
Negotiator at the Peace Talks

secured permission
from Zaki's mother.

He said he can't wait to
negotiate with an Israeli

who has a Palestinian heart.

All right. Let's get
this man up to the OR!

Let's go!

You should be in bed, Commander.

So should you.

Ow!

What happened? Oh, a
little language problem.

How do you say,
"Stay where you are

"or I'll pistol whip
you" in Farsi?

It sounded just like that.

It's a boy.

I told you, missy.

I may be old, but I haven't
forgotten what the plumbing looks like.

But the ultrasound
said it was a girl.

It's never 100 percent certain.

Tell me about it.

Oh, we didn't even have
a boy's name picked out.

What's your name?

Harm.

It's short for Harmon.

And your name again?

Walter.

Well, how does that sound, huh?

Harmon Walter.

I don't think he likes it.

How about Mac?
