SEAL Team (2017–…): Season 5, Episode 3 - Nine Ten - full transcript

As members of Bravo team travel to New York City, they reflect on a day that shaped each of their lives forever.



I'd be lying if I said
this one wasn't messing

with my head a little bit.

Well, I almost told
the cake-eaters

where they could shove this
particular good idea.

Can't imagine how this feels
for you.

What makes you think
this idea's so bad?

History.

Emma...

♪ Emma, Emma, Bo-bemma

Hey, today's the day,
Emma-phant.



You're gonna crawl.
I can feel it.

Come on, you were doing that
"rev your motor" thing

all weekend.
You've got all the pieces,

just... just put 'em together.

Okay. You know what you need
is incentive.

Okay?

Ooh... look at that.

You're gonna go get it.

Come on, go get it.

Jason! She's your daughter,

she's not a dog to play fetch
with.

You're right.
A dog obeys commands.

I don't get it.
Liz and Reed's baby

was crawling at this age.



Well, life isn't a competition.

Don't listen to your mother.

Oh, no, no, no.

Maybe I should give up on her
and focus on the next one?

"Next one"?

Not until this one's
potty trained--

unless you plan on pulling
double diaper duty with me.

Yeah, not what I meant when
I requested more dirty talk.

You should check your clock,
Spielberg,

you're gonna be late for work.

Pick me up.
Come on. Come on, Emma.

Hey, record everything.

Yeah.
I love you.

Hey.

Love you, buddy.

You're gonna crawl.

Okay? You can do it.

Ooh, you can do it.



Guess you've got the long-view.

You've been in the Navy

since I was in kindergarten.

Kindergarten?

Thought you spent your childhood
spreading the word

with your grandparents.

My mom dumped me with them
the next summer.



You, uh...

you bring it on board with you

or did you let the ground crew
stow it?

I haven't let it out of
my sight.

Can I see it?



Hey, kiddo.

How was the trip in?

It was fine.

The long flight didn't wear you
out did it?

I'm good.

Got a pretty big week planned.

Got a ceremony today,
a little party, right?

Hey.

The "reel" fun starts tomorrow!

Check it out.

The "reel" fun!

Used to love that joke when you
were little.

You remember when I took you
fishing in the Chesapeake

to catch mackerel?

You used to hate baiting
your own hook, right?

The sand eel, they used to
freak you out a little bit.

Doesn't bother me anymore.

Grammy and Poppa taught me how
to bait in the Gulf of Guinea.

Taught me a lot of things.

Good. I'm glad.

You know what else
I'm glad about?

I'm glad they brought you here
to help you celebrate

your old man's retirement.

That means a lot to me, son.

And you know what else?

I get to spend the week
with you-- mm!--

without worrying about getting
called into work!

Can't wait.



Good morning!

Weekend's over, everyone,
so let's focus.

Thank you.

I hope you all've made progress

on your research project
proposals.

Let's find out who our first

three presentations
will come from tomorrow.

Melanie Rudolph.

Matt Peters.

And...

Lisa Davis.

Please take out your homework
from last week, pass it forward,

and turn to chapter ten.



Sonny, stop, all right? Hey!

We've got a long day
ahead of us.

Just sit down, and save
your energy for later, okay?

Come on.

Right. Right.

Took you less than three
weeks to stop knocking first.

Manners are for strangers
and roommates.

Not my fault Hannah Oliver
somehow gets

a single as a freshman.

Okay, what if I was
in here with a guy?

Then the door would be locked.

Unless you're some sort of
kinky voyeur.

That would make me an
exhibition-- never mind.

How was rehearsal?

Wet Burrito ready for their
big debut Friday?

Wet Burrito has made it
to its inevitable resting place:

the toilet.

What's that mean?

I'm not in the band anymore.
You quit?

They kicked you out?

Maybe a little of both.

Comes a time in every man's life
when he realizes

music isn't his thing,

and he moves on.

So what's next?

The last three months
you tried the band,

and night club promoting,

and even jujitsu for a while.

Hmm...

It's too bad Sensei Stu
was running a pyramid scheme.

I looked tight in my gi.

You know, you could
always go back to the ranch.

I'm sure Emmet would love
to have you.

Or, you spend so much time
on campus,

you might as well enroll.

High school was boring enough.

Well, there are a lot more
options here

than in high school.

Might help you find whatever
it is you're looking for.





Really appreciate this, Phil.
No problem, Captain Perry.

Make sure you try to keep one
in the park next time

we play your station.

Can't make any promises.

Breathalyzer you blew
when they picked you up

means you're probably
dehydrated.

On your feet, Raymond.







Worried about him.

He's fine.

North Korea proved it.

Not what I mean.

Leave him be, all right?

He needs anything,
he'll let us know.



Still waiting on a "thank you."

For what?
I didn't do anything.

Underage consumption of alcohol
says otherwise.

Blood on your hands

might also convince a judge
to agree with disorderly conduct

and criminal mischief.

You need to be better than this.

You wanna tell me what you got
yourself into

that I had to pull a favor
to get you out of?

It was nothing.

Nothing?

Your favorite pastime!

Maybe if you were doing
something--

a job, school--

maybe you wouldn't have so much
time for nothing.

Look, I've heard this tired
old speech a thousand times.

Don't you have a cat to pull out
of a tree?

Cat's worth saving. But you?

Stay on this path to nowhere,
you walk it alone.

This is the last time
I stand between you

and the criminal record
you seem determined

to create for yourself.

Okay.

"Okay"?

That's all you have to say?

Thanks, Pop.

"The United States did not enter
World War II

"until after December 7, 1941,

"a day that will live in infamy.

"On that day, Japanese forces

attacked Pearl Harbor
in the then-territory..."

I'm hungry.

I'm doing homework.

Mom will be home soon.

No, she won't.
She's out with her friend Andre.

She said she'll be back late.

What?

Why didn't you tell me?

'Cause I forgot till now.

Did she leave anything for me
to heat up?

Nope. She said you're
in charge of figuring it out.

Damn it, Ronnie, wish I'd known!

I'm hungry, Lisa.
Okay, just give me a sec,

I need to finish this one...
Now!

One sec!

Ow, I'm telling!
Damn it, Ronnie!

It's not my fault!
I told you I was hungry!

Come on.

Let's go get cleaned up
and then I'll start dinner.

I'm disappointed you
didn't get to make a speech.

Well, doesn't work like that.

Besides, I don't have to be
the center of attention

all the time.

Stories you could have told.

You know your old man blew up
Noriega's boat?

Leave him alone. He doesn't
even know who Noriega is.

You blew up a boat?

Well, it was more like a yacht.

Drug money gets all
the best toys, right?

How far down did you
have to dive?

You know, it was like
30 or 40 feet.

But we survived.

Four men on the airfield that
day weren't quite as lucky.

They died?
They sure did.

In service to their country
and there's no greater honor.

Did you ever almost...?

The world calmed down on
the back nine of my career, son.

I spent most of my time
out of the line of fire.

You were on three
active operations, Spenser.

More than any other frogman
I know.

Your dad might go down as
a legend with a résumé like his.

If that means my boy
gets to grows up on a planet

that gives peace
a half a chance,

then I will humbly

wear that legend title.

Get some quarters, come on.

Get ready to roll.

We're four in a row
with no mistakes.

Five'll make me proud.

Shouldn't be a problem
with a team this slick.

Feels like we're being graded
on a curve.

There a problem, Hayes?

Just hard to know how slick
we really are

when we're just playing pretend.

You're tired of clearing houses?

No, we're hitting dingers in BP.

True test of skill only happens
when the game's on the line.

Bolt cutters up!



Cut there.

Might take some time, but
eventually you'll get an at bat.

Open!



"Eventually."

30 minutes out.

Oh, man,

it's been like ten years
since I've been here.

Ten years?
Yeah.

Yeah, probably same for me.

Yeah, me, too.

I haven't been here since before
Green Team.

I've never been.



Chicken was delicious, Mom.

Thank you.

You want some more?
No.

Good.

If you're full,
that means you're happy.

Which means we can talk about
what happened

without you making a scene,
right?

Talk about what?

I didn't steal anything
and I didn't hurt anybody.

That's a low bar.

You used to have such focus,
such discipline.

You know, you... you had plans.

Yeah, and then Dad moved us here
from Jersey,

and some punk from Veritas
broke my leg on the mat

and then all the scholarships
went away.

That was two years ago.
Time to find a new excuse.

Jamal.

Uh-uh.

Wipe that look off your face.

Your father has a point.

Wrestling was a means to college
for you,

not an end in itself.

You were a good student.

School is still an option.

Maybe.

But it isn't cheap,
and I don't want to waste money

if I don't know what I want
to study.

Whose money?
You don't have a job.

Yeah, but if Mom's offering,
yours.

I'm being fiscally responsible
on your behalf.

"Responsible"?

Out of your mouth?

You wanna learn some
responsibility,

we can arrange that.

Your own roof, your own food,
your own dime.

We are not kicking our son
out of the house.

Your pampering's great
motivation for him

to straighten out.

Who's ready for dessert?

Wrap mine up to go.

I'll eat at the station.

I thought your
rotation was over.

It was, until I traded shifts
to go save our son's ass.

He gets all worked up
over nothing.

I'm fine, Mom.

You're not, Ray.

We're both worried about you.

And you may not like
your father's words or tone,

but what he's saying
isn't wrong.



Hi, Miss Gladys.
Do you need me to come down

and change a light bulb?

No, no, I'm all good, honey.

Came up to check on you girls.

Thought I heard a
little trouble earlier...

Oh, that was just Ronnie belting
"Lady Marmalade."

Kid thinks she's
Christina Aguilera.

Sorry to disturb you.

I'll make sure she keeps it
down.

Oh, no apology necessary.

Glad it was just
the exuberance of youth.

What's that?

That is the first "F"
I'll ever get.

And hopefully the last.

An "F"?

No, you're too smart for that.

What happened?

The visual aid for my
presentation tomorrow

about Pearl Harbor
got destroyed, so... fail.

Well, maybe I have something
you could use.

I was there, after all.

You were?

My husband was stationed
on the island.

Worst day of my life.

I didn't know if I'd survive

or if I'd ever see him again.

That must have been scary.

Oh... it was.

Hard thing, learning you...

your home's not as safe
as you believed.

But getting through it showed me
what I'm made of.

When Freddie went off to fight,

decided I was going to do
my part, too.

Like Rosie the Riveter.

Or... or Amy the Aviator.

I got my pilot's license
and went to work for

the Air Transport Command,

ferrying planes for the rest
of the war.

I didn't know women flew
for the military back then.

Uh... technically, we didn't.

Eh... it was a different time.

But even though we were
flying the same aircraft

as the boys,
it didn't count the same.

That sucks!

Stinks. Sorry.

No, it sucked.

Lot of consequences to us
being underestimated like that.

But it teaches you, too.

How to stand up for yourself.

Don't ever let anyone tell you
you're worth less than you are.

You understand me?

Will you tell me more about
your time as a pilot?

Oh, you don't want
to hear my old war stories.

I do! I really do.

Huh.

Okay, ready.

Better than the stripes?

You plan to try all these on
and have me weigh in?

If this is some long con
to trick me into

textile design classes,
then I...

Don't think I'm gonna have
any more luck talking you

into school than I did

talking you out of
a wallet chain.

Can you just answer
the question--

better or worse
than the stripes?

I don't know.

Come on, rush event starts
in an hour.

I need to make a decision.

Need an escort to Sorority Row?

Wouldn't mind getting
a peek inside

those houses,

do a recon for some
Lambda Lambda Lambda type op.

The idea is that I impress
these girls.

Not sure bringing along
a best friend who smells like

he hasn't showered in a week
is gonna help.

Says the girl who helped shovel

plenty of manure on the ranch
three summers straight.

Why you kissing up to
a bunch of pageant queens?

Why were you in a punk band
until half an hour ago?

More ska than punk--
maybe that was the problem.

You wanna know why I'm rushing,
Sonny?

We're on our own,

figuring out who we are
outside of our families.

Hard enough as it is.

Can't blame me for wanting
a place to fit in.

All right, Coop,
all right, Coop!

Oh, he's human, folks!

Hey, you ever play?

No.
Come on down here.

I want you to take three
fingers,

lay it down on the felt,
like that, okay?

The pointer and the thumb,
you make a circle.

That's gonna be your guide,
okay?

Want you to hit right
about there,

not too hard, not too soft.

Oh, oh, oh, hey,
that's all right.

A little more practice,
we'll get this.

Spoken like a senior chief.

How long you stateside for, kid?

Couple weeks.
Gonna see your mom?

Uh...
Hey, hey.

Don't know you know it's bad
luck to bring up a guy's ex

during his retirement party?

Never heard that one before,
but you're right.

Forget the past
and focus on the future.

What's your plan?

Bet you got offers pouring in.
I don't know, I just,

working for a defense contractor
doesn't light my fuse.

Thinking about writing a book
about my time in.

I even sent a couple of

chapters off to a publisher.

Yeah?
Mm-hmm.

Not sure how that's gonna
go over in the community.

Right, well, lucky for you,

there's not a market for
my stories

about teaching you how to
lasso goats in Iraq.

Oh, you could work on the
motivational speaking circuit.

Really, who the hell's gonna pay
a frogman for his advice?

Huh? I mean,
isn't that why we became SEALs,

we didn't want real jobs
or responsibilities?

Something as meaningful as
the Teams

will come to me eventually.

Last time I saw you reading
a newspaper,

you were cutting out your
picture

after winning
the city championship.

Beat Mastbaum by three.

I scored two touchdowns,
got a pick,

and took the prettiest girl in
school out for dinner after.

Shoplifting Wawa hoagies

does not qualify as dinner
or taking me out.

Oh, that was you?

Real estate listings?

Where'd you get
a Philadelphia Inquirer?

Stopped by a newsstand
on the way home.

Did you know a four-bedroom
house on half an acre in Media

costs $175,000?

Can't get a garage in Coronado
for that much.

Sure we can afford that?

If we move back to Philly,

then I'm gonna enroll at Penn--
that's not cheap.

And maybe after I graduate,
I stick around for my MBA.

Land a CFO track somewhere.

Eventually,
I'll make enough money

that I can buy you
an even nicer house.

And the Flyers.

Oh, I get it,
you're making fun of me.

Come on,
we've played this game before.

Your enlistment's up in
four months.

Last time you had me convinced
that we were moving to Seattle.

This isn't three years ago.

Yeah, and that's why it's Philly

instead of the
Pacific Northwest.

How come your fantasies never
take us anywhere tropical?

Hey, mock me all you want--
come here.

But things have changed.

We were teenagers when I dragged
you out here, we're parents now.

It's up to us to give our baby
girl the best life possible.

Even though she is insubordinate
and refuses to crawl.

Uh...

I'm not sure how
insubordinate she is anymore.

What?

Oh, what?

Everyone clear on the plan?

Trillions of dollars spent
on developing

the most sophisticated weapons
for the War on Terror.

And there's nothing
more valuable than that.

Can I see it before it, uh,

officially becomes a relic?

Whole thing feels wrong.

Okay, I want you to hit
that white ball

right through the one ball.

And remember,
slow is smooth, smooth is fast.

Excellent.
Dang it.

What?
Didn't get any in.

It's okay, just relax.

Now we need to set up
for your next shot.

What do you think?
There isn't one unless

I break those up some more.

I think you might be able

to get that ten ball past
the three ball.

But you're gonna have to hit it
perfectly.

How hard should I hit it?

You tell me.

Hard enough it gets there, not
too hard it gets out of control.

Slow is smooth and smooth
is fast.

Holy crap!

I did it!
My son's a legend!

Just like his old man!

You think maybe
your job's over now,

that I could stay longer than
a week?

Would you like to do that, son?

Like, maybe I could live
with you?

I'd really like that a lot.

What a champ.

Here you go.



Aha!

Still not sure why

you're passing up Topper Harley,
and your favorite munchies,

for the Barbie Brigade.

Probably because you just
described

every night of senior year.

Those were great times.

They were, but we're not in
high school anymore.

Doesn't mean you have to become
a completely different person.

Stop it.
Stop what?

Dragging me down for trying
to broaden my horizons.

So kissing up to sorority girls
is broadening horizons?

Beats sitting on the couch

and watching the same movie
over and over again.

I don't even know who you
are anymore.

No, Sonny, you don't know who
you are, and that's the problem.

What's that supposed to mean?

It means that college
is a fresh start for me.

And fine if you don't want to
try it, but you can't

bring your chaos in here
if it's gonna hold me back.

I'm holding you back?

I know you hate change,

but that's what this time
in our life is supposed to be.

You can fight it,
but I don't want to.

I gotta go.

Bye.

You know...

...my father hit me.

Is that a threat?

Only thing I learned from it

was that you can't beat
sense into someone.

Figured I could teach by
my example instead of his.

Did you hate him?

Sometimes.

You hate me?

No.

Still feel like I've failed.

Waiting for you to grow up.

Dedicated my life
to helping people,

and can't make a dent
with my own son.

Today was damn near
my worst nightmare.

Just glad it was the precinct
and not the morgue.

Sorry.

I'm done being angry, Ray.

I'm disappointed.

I'm disappointed in you.

Disappointed in myself.

I gotta get to work.

At least help your mother clean
up the kitchen, please.



It's not the same.

What isn't?

Thinking about Philly.

I was just having some fun.

I missed Emma starting to crawl
today,

Alana.

Am I supposed to miss her
first steps, too?

And for what, seeing if I know

how to grab a pair
of bolt cutters when asked?

You love your job.

I do, but I joined to help
the greater good,

but now I'm not so sure what's
more important than this family.

It's getting harder to choose
to put us second all the time.

You really are serious.

You know, I wasn't joking
this morning.

I do want another kid.

Kids.

Well, that explains
the four-bedroom house.

You have a plan for how we
pay the mortgage?

I mean, I'd like to find
something

where I can actually have
an impact,

rather than just practice
for it.

Maybe FBI or...

field medic training was
pretty cool,

maybe get EMT certification.

Okay.
I know you have goals, too.

I mean, you gave up
a lot for me.

You want to go to school,

our folks are close enough to
help with double diaper duty.

Well, I always thought
I'd enjoy law school.

Yeah, the way you argue,
you're a natural.

Hey, becoming a SEAL
was my dream job.

Now it's time you find yours.

Well, that does sound nice.

You home more,
and living closer to family.

Wanna hear the best part?
Always.

I have two months'
paid leave saved up.

We could be settled in
by Thanksgiving.

I'll call Personnel Support
first thing tomorrow

and get the ball rolling.
Yeah.

And...
And what?

May as well get started on
a sibling for Emma.

Good morning, everyone.

Which of our three presenters
would like to go first?

Lisa, the floor is yours.

What's that?

That's tight.

From 1942 through 1944, over
a thousand women flew planes

in the U.S. Army Air Forces
during World War II.

But it wasn't
until the late 1970s

that they were recognized
as part of the military.

My research project seeks
to answer the questions:

what is the history of the
Women's Airforce Service Pilots?

And how did the denial

of military status affect...
What?

Wait...

No.

Ready, Dad?

Information
continues to come in...

What movie's that?

We can now confirm two planes

flew into the Twin Towers
of the World Trade Center

some 20 minutes apart this
morning.

We've gotten reports some
passengers on those planes

may have called loved ones

on the ground to report
they'd been hijacked.

We are still awaiting
confirmation

of flight numbers,

but both planes may have been

in route to Los Angeles
from Boston.

The fire department
and Port Authority

have ordered evacuation
of the World Trade Center...

It's not a movie.

Something bad has happened.

...images of what appears to be

people either falling
or jumping from...

Listen, son.

We're not going fishing.

I have to drive to D.C.

to be on the news
as a military expert.



Are we at war?

No, not yet.

Am I going with you to D.C.?

I called your grandparents,
they're on their way to get you.

I'm sorry, kiddo.

Our plans are on hold for now.

President Bush plans
to address the nation...



We're under attack, wake up!

The hell's going on out there?

Wake up, it's on TV!

We're being attacked.

Today
we've had a national tragedy.

Two airplanes have crashed
into the World Trade Center

in an apparent terrorist attack
on our country.

And I've ordered that
the full resources

of the federal government...
Oh, Sonny...

It's okay.

...to hunt down...
It's not.

...and to find those folks
who committed this act.

Look at it.

It will be.

Given the coordination
and choice of targets,

certainly, there can be no
question now

that this is a deliberate
and highly coordinated attack.

It does appear that way, Jim.

When you think of what
individuals or groups

would want to attack the United
States and have the resources

to plan and achieve
something of this scale...

Agency's gotta be all over this.

Won't be long before they have
a target.

Targets.

And-- Oh.

Teams are gonna get the call.

Oh, my goodness.

Oh, my goodness...

Whoa, whoa, nobody below Canal,

you gotta turn around.
But my dad's down there!

He's a firefighter,
I have to find him!

I can't let you through, son,
I'm sorry.

He's down there somewhere.
I have to find him, please!





Ain't that something?

Odds were against it,
but it found a way to thrive.

Amid all that darkness, it found
its way toward sunlight.

Resilient.

I can't believe it's been
20 years.

Day made us all grow up, whether
or not we were ready to.

Can't even imagine what it was
like for an actual kid.

That day changed everything.

Shaped me and the choices
I've made since.

Two days later I walked into
a recruiting office.

And I might've never met
you guys

if it wasn't for that day.



He'd be proud of you.

Be prouder if I hadn't spun out

for two more years before
I enlisted.

You grieved how you grieved.

At the end of the day, you are
where you're meant to be, Ray.

I just, I just wish he knew

how much he helped me become
the man I am today.

You haven't put that in yet?

Place of honor awaits for
the bolt cutters

from the Abbottabad raid.

Reason the brass sent us here.

I, uh...

I think the victims of the guy
responsible for all this,

it'd be okay memorializing
a piece of the op

that brought him justice.

The only people that we
should honor and remember today

are the ones that we lost
20 years ago.
