♪ Sinister sister shall fall to the blade of my knife... ♪
Attention!
As you were.
Ma'am.
Long hop to Landstuhl.
No.
Thank you, Lieutenant.
Not a lot of Marines on Landstuhl.
My...
Marine lieutenant son is there.
SEALS pulled him out of a cave
in Pakistan.
Four hours after the rescue chopper landed,
he was on a flight to Germany.
Is he all right, ma'am?
CACO officers say
that he's dehydrated.
So that's great.
Couple of bags of fluid and he's on his way home.
That was 15 hours ago. I haven't heard from Adam,
and I can't get his doctor on the phone.
Uh, 15 hours?
That's not normal, is it?
Uh, I'm a nurse there.
As soon as a soldier stabilizes,
a social worker puts a phone in his hand and says, "Call home."
The hospital's the size of a small city.
Busy as hell.
If they said your son's dehydrated,
I bet that's all it is.
Colonel Turnbull is unavailable.
I understand she's unavailable.
I don't need her to be available.
I just need to go into her office and get
the charger she borrowed before my phone dies.
Lieutenant, if Colonel Turnbull's not available,
how is she going to let you into her office?
Is there anyone else around here up to that job?
Belay that request, Lieutenant Li.
Eyes on me, Marines. I've got sitrep!
Colonel Turnbull has a family situation.
I am acting jack; you'll report to me until it's resolved.
As you've all noticed, we've lost our warrant officer
to a transfer.
Fortunately, the colonel's adjutant
has volunteered to assume Rami's duties
until we have a replacement. I-I did?
Rami Ahmadi is the heart and soul of this office.
He has kept us all in bullets, beans and Band-Aids,
but I am confident Glen-One-N will step up.
As you were.
Lieutenant Li, you're with me.
Lieutenant Eick asked everyone
to stop calling him "Glen-One-N".
Colonel Turnbull's first name is Glenn, with two Ns.
Her adjutant's Glen, one N.
How else are we supposed to tell them apart?
By using their last names?
No, can't do it.
Lieutenant Eick is "Glen-One-N."
It captures the man, right down to his desiccated soul.
Call you back. You heard my report?
The gist. You're acting jack.
You're acting jack. Glen-One-N continues to malinger.
Better men than you have tried to make that accusation stick.
Lieutenant Eick has chronic pain.
On the days he remembers to wear that collar.
Who is this handsome fella, and why do I get the feeling
he's about to become part of my life?
That's Lieutenant Zephyr Tarkanian. "Tark."
He saved his unit from a sniper in Syria,
and is currently up for the Medal of Honor.
So, good for Tark. He'll never pay for another beer again.
No, but he might spend the next 20 years in the brig.
Lieutenant Tarkanian's unit
rotated out of Syria six months ago.
But he never reported for the flight home.
The theory was he'd been captured.
Two days ago, Marine Raiders got into a mix-up
with a Turkish-backed rebel militia outside Idlib.
The Syrian rebels are on our side.
What's left of them. But Syria's a goat rope.
It's hard to keep track of who's who.
Our guys captured one of the rebels
and pulled off his balaclava.
Care to guess who they found under there?
Zephyr "Tark" Tarkanian?Mm.
As far as we can tell, he took a six-month UA vacation
to fight for the armed services of another country
while still a commissioned officer.
Tarkanian just landed in Quantico.
He'll be charged with Article 85: Desertion.
You two will be handling the prosecution.
Who's on defense?
Captain Dobbins is senior defense counsel
while I fill in for the colonel,
but my guess is Maya puts her favorite lawyer on it.
Meaning she's taking it herself?
Relax. We're not going to Syria.
I didn't say we were.
In your mind you did.
You're thinking, "My fiancé is in town,
this is no time for a jaunt overseas."
The word "jaunt" has never appeared in my thoughts,
and I don't know what it's doing in yours.
And this is a desertion case.
It's going away.
Read Tarkanian's OQR. He's a hero.
The commandant himself weighed in on his MOH recommendation.
And even after he abandoned his unit,
Tark fought for our allies.
Get up to speed.
Captain Dobbins, you're representing
Lieutenant Zephyr Tarkanian.
How did you guess?
I secured him cammies, got him cleaned up a bit.
What do you make of the case?
Tark's record is obviously outstanding.
He eats hand grenades for breakfast.
But I won't really know until I hear his story.
He's waiting in the conference room.
Sit in, see what we're working with?
I'm acting jack--
Which means you can't work defense. Got it.
I'm looking for advice, not a co-counsel.
Okay.

They let you keep your tablet?
I borrowed it from one of your Marines, ma'am.
He heard about what I did. He thinks I'm a hero.
I'm Captain Dobbins. I'm your attorney.
Major Ferry is observing as acting CO.
I drafted an opening statement.
Does it describe what you've been up to
for the last six months?
Okay, first of all,
the Syrian red lines imposed by the U.S. and the U.N.
were kid's swipes of pink chalk on a sidewalk.
When I was a grunt L-T,
nobody wanted my opinion of the Sunni Awakening.
I saw it all so clearly.
A century of greed-fueled lies from the West,
Egypt, Iraq, Libya,
Saudi Arabia... It made sense.
We've all read the sheet music.
Why'd you leave your unit?
We were the only thing that stood between
the village of Elmaleh and complete annihilation.
My commanders weighed that on some scale they kept hidden
in the officers' club, and decided to abandon the city
wholesale to rape,
murder and, I don't know,
who knows, maybe even a chemical attack.
I chose to stand by our company's mission.
A lieutenant decides for himself what the company's mission is.
If that isn't 2019 in a nutshell.
I operated in theater for six months.
I built relationships.
That place was going to be wiped out.
You had intel. Did you bring it to your CO?
The travel manifests were set.
He told me to get on the freedom bird.
Some of us are built to fight.
We're on your side, Lieutenant.
Can you tell me where
my Medal of Honor recommendation is in process?
We're tracking it.
Ma'am.
You worried, Lieutenant?
No.
I took a moral stand
from inside a morass of incivility, death,
and destruction, while others did nothing.
I stood tall for the humanity and integrity of all men.
Defense clients are like family. You rarely get to choose.
I didn't say that I won't do it.
I-I just need, like, three months to get back in shape.
Well, everything looks
pretty squared away from where I'm standing.
Well, thanks.
Uh, you mind? It's my acting CO.
I gotta do bedtime anyway.
I don't think I sat for more than 20 minutes today.
Takes its toll on your back.
It takes its toll everywhere.
You can't fall asleep here again tonight.
I know. It's the kids.
One of them has a bad dream and comes in, I...
I get it, Al...
If this turns into--
When we figure out what we are...
if it's actually something,
then I'll-I'll talk to them.
To Danny, really.
Should we figure this out?
Someday.
Soon.
But tonight let's just call it what we need.
Okay?
Uh...
Danny. Are-are you all right, sweetheart?
I forgot my book down here.
Oh, it-it's a little late for reading.
Go upstairs, okay? I'll be right up.
Okay, Mom.
How long was she...
I don't-- I don't know.
You should probably...Yeah, of course. I-I'll go.
Captain Dobbins wants to talk ASAP.
About what? Deal's on the table.
We have an issue. All rise for Judge Holbrook.
Good morning.
A friendly reminder that
I'm one who'll brook no disorder in my court.
"Who'll brook." Holbrook.
Rapier wit, sir.
I find a new layer every time I hear that one.
Sit.
We're here for the Article 32 hearing of Lieutenant Tarkanian
on an Article 85 charge: Desertion During Wartime.
I hear from trial counsel we might have a deal in--
Well, it appears our young lieutenant
would like to break protocol.
Judge, sir, permission to speak? Enlighten us.
Against the advice of counsel, I waive my Article 32 rights.
Settle.
I suggest you reconsider.
That will end this hearing and void your deal.
Trial counsel will use unsworn reports and interviews.
I followed Dan Daly's dictum:
I chose not to live forever, but to fight.
Save it for your court-martial. You'll need it.
I assume you'd like to be replaced by JAs
the accused might listen to?
I prefer to retain my current counsel.
If that's the lieutenant's preference, I'm game.
Strap in, then.
This'll be fun.
Remember when I said we're not going to Syria?
Turns out I might have been...
Completely wrong? I noticed.
Where is Adam? I have your information.
I'll call you the second I know more.
Where is my son?!
Ma'am, we have people on this.
Colonel. Nobody's talked to you?
Lieutenant, I've been-- Talked to me about what?
I have a friend who assists in the OR.
They had an Adam "Trumbull"
booked into one of the operating rooms.
Just give me a moment...Wait, wait...
Why was Adam in an operating room?
Your son was scheduled for a left leg AK amp.
A what?!Above the knee...
amputation.
I know what an AK amp is!
They told me he was dehydrated. I'll find you a surgeon.
♪
Your son sustained a four-inch cut
on his left thigh when he was captured.
I could have patched it up
in ten minutes.
His captors must have cleaned the wound for a while,
but I understand they moved him around quite a bit?
W-We think so. At some point,
they stopped taking care of it.
Adam was septic when he came in.
He developed gas gangrene around the untreated area.
By the time he got here, the sores were--
Saving the leg wasn't an option.
Thank you for... helping my son.
I want to see him.
He's stable, but he'll be out for a while.
He's gonna come around, ma'am.
It's just a question of when.
I don't suppose
I can get you back here for... let's say 30 minutes?
30? Not super ambitious.
When you're hot to close a negotiation,
come out of the gate with a realistic proposal.
Now you're negotiating against yourself.
Look at you.
Still feeling frisky?
Yeah, now more than ever.
If I offer
my unconditional surrender,
do you promise to treat me humanely?
Oh, it sucks we don't get the whole week.
No complaints here.
I'll take any amount of Harper Li that happens to be available.
I love you.
Stay safe, okay?
It'll be fine.
The base is in Turkey.
So stay safe and bring back a rug.
Okay.
♪ Yuruyorum sana dogru...♪
Welcome to the edge of chaos.
The Syrian border's a few klicks that way.
Used to be a beautiful country, from what I hear.
Not so much these days?
Oh, we just call it "The Bad Place."
I understand you're here about Tark?
Correct. The way Lieutenant Tarkanian tells it,
he spent his unauthorized absence...
What was the phrase he used, Lieutenant?
"Defying oppression and standing up for basic human rights."
That's the way I heard it, too.
That's a pretty vague way to account for your time.
We'd like to drill down on specifics.
Well, talk to anyone you like.
But if you came here to build a case against Tark,
you're gonna go home disappointed.
My guys think he's the second coming of Chesty.
We'll interview them just the same.
But we'd really like to find some of the rebels
Tark fought beside after he deserted.
Allegedly deserted. My client's a hero.
He can be a hero and a deserter.
Any thoughts on where we might start?
Well, the rebels around Idlib are hard to pin down.
They get supplies from a Turkish Army unit.
Colonel Kavur's in command.
I can see if he's willing to talk.
Thank you, Captain.
Captain Dobbins and I will sit down with your men.
Lieutenant Li, stick with Captain Dyer
and see if you can land us a sit-down
with this Turkish colonel.
Got any lira on you?
No, sir. Why?
Bribe money. Softens the landing.
All right. Let me know when you get
a 20.
Thank you, Simms.
That's my staff sergeant. He's working on finding
Colonel Kavur's unit. Thank you, sir.
I got paperwork. Do you mind if I...?
Of course not. Can I help?
Okay...
Hmm?
No. I can't take this.
Mama sent me a six-pack last week.
Mm.
Tasty. Mama knows her stone fruit.
200 years of prize-winning peach farmers.
Hmm.
You got a family business?
Litigation. My parents sue people.
Interesting. So you graduated from Michigan? Cal?
You're in the ballpark.
So you graduated
from an unnamed law school, and then joined the Corps
instead of the family firm, huh?
How'd that go over?
Everyone says the right things.
But do they get it?
Mm, they see it like
I'm backpacking through Europe
after college.
Where'd you go to school?
Well, snobs say New Haven. I say Yale.
But you didn't ride Metro North to Wall Street
hours after graduation?
Legacy kid. Crap grades.
Sorry.
It's my sergeant.
Colonel Kavur says we can
see his unit in the morning.
One thing: they haven't rotated back over the border yet.
They're holding down a position in Idlib.
The Bad Place.
Seriously? You can do the whole investigation
on base? Uh, we'll see what develops,
but, uh, yeah. Looks that way.
That's great.
I'll tell Danny. How is she? Can I talk to her?
Danny, come talk to Uncle Abe.
She can't talk right now.
Can't?
She's still confused, Abe.
Be safe, okay?
You don't mind doing that?
Doing what?
We're driving into a war tomorrow.
There are five countries fighting in Idlib.
I thought it was six.
Lieutenant Li is asking
if you're comfortable with the lie you just told.
I don't see the point in making people worry.
What'd you say to Bard?
The same thing you did. I just didn't feel good about it.
It gets easier.
I'll sleep in the chow hall.
Who knew our Captain Abraham had
such delicate sensibilities? Ooh.
Good night.

My men understand, they must answer your questions.
Thank you, Colonel Kavur. Most of my men
are from poor families. They don't speak English.
My nephew Emek will translate.
Did you ever cross paths with Lieutenant Tarkanian, Colonel?
Hmm. Well, there were stories.
Rumors of a soldier the men called
"The American Lion," but...
...stories only.
When you resupplied the rebels, there was no American there?
He says no. I got it.
Can we have the room?
Five hours of variations on a theme.
It's almost like somebody coached these guys.
Did you see Colonel Kavur's wall?
There were a bunch of empty spaces.
Someone took down the photos they didn't want us to see.
Or they're having the frames repaired.
Right, because small businesses are thriving in Idlib.
They're blank spots on a wall.
You don't get to decide what they mean.
This is going nowhere fast.
There's got to be international charities
working in Idlib, right?
Sure. Oxfam's got an outpost across town.
Red Crescent actually distributes supplies from here.
They're due by later.
Well, we can't get to both by sunset.
Are you comfortable with divide and conquer, Captain?
I can spare a couple Humvees.
But you got to be out of the city by nightfall.
I don't want you wandering into an ambush.
Assuming she's up for a drive,
I'll take Captain Dobbins across town.
Lieutenant, wait here with Captain Dyer.
We'll hook up back at the FOB.
Time's getting short, sir. We need to move ASAP.
90 minutes of sun left.
My staff sergeant's getting itchy.
No word from the Red Crescent?
No. It's about that time, Lieutenant.
Meet me back at the Hummers in five mikes.
Where are you going, sir?
Quick recon mission, Simms.
There.
Just saw a tree. You happy, Staff Sergeant?
I'll be happy once I'm sitting in front of some hot chow, sir.
There's hardly any trees left in the cities.
Simms always figured we're as good as home once he sees one.
Oh. Li.
Found you a few sweet treats.
Save them for Quantico.
Thanks...?
Why are we slowing down, Sergeant?
Vehicles in the road, sir.
What's up, Marines?
We've got Syrian Army up ahead.
They have blindfolded civilians lined up against a wall, sir.
Damn.
What do you want to do, sir?
Let's halt and have a look-see.

What do you want to do about it, Staff Sergeant?
You live here, I flew in yesterday. Make a proposal.
I suggest we fight and maneuver to the building.
And enter it?
Hey diddle-diddle, right up the middle and onto the roof.
Why are we standing here when we have a plan?
Move, move, move!
I'll pray for us all!
Barricaded from the inside.
So here's our basic dead end scenario.
The baddies are in our laps in two minutes.
I hope you've brushed up on your hand-to-hand combat, Lieutenant.
Colonel. You made it.

Of course I did.
How much did they take? I keep forgetting.
Every time I wake up, I'm outside that cave, running.

Of course you do.

First, we'll stabilize your pain,
and then we're gonna get you back stateside.

When you're ready to talk...
Are you gonna offer a deal?

Everyone knows he deserted.
The question is, can we get a panel to convict?
He's a bona fide hero.
We came here to find evidence
to counter that narrative.
We came up empty, so...
This could have gone away days ago.
Instead, three Marines are dead, all because Tark wants
to stand on a soapbox and lecture the world.
There's no deal.

I want you to sit this one out.

Would you state your name and rank for the record?
Gunnery Sergeant Raymond Hollingsworth, sir.
And you served with the defendant,
Lieutenant Zephyr Tarkanian?
Yes, sir.
Is it true that your platoon held a position

Well, maybe she's not as ready to work as she thinks she is.

And then it was like...
I was watching myself be scared.
You just do the next thing you're supposed to do.
You really okay?
If there's anything I can do...
I really think I am.
Bard's coming back this weekend. We're going away.
Captain!
Lieutenant Li, I thought I ordered you to stand down.
Just look. Captain Dyer gave this to me
right before that firefight.
He said they were sweet treats.
Are these all pictures of Tarkanian?
Before we left that Turkish outpost in Idlib,
Captain Dyer split
from the platoon for a few minutes.
He must have gone back
to meet that kid, uh, Emek.
He got his hands on the photos they took down.
I'm not sure if this changes anything, Harper.
We already know that Tarkanian was with the Syrian rebels.
There are dozens of rebel militias, sir.
Look at this.
That is Adnan Elbaz.
He's the commander of the Messengers of God Brigade.
Elbaz's militia overran a post office near Idlib
that the Syrian Army was using as a comms outpost.
According to several eyewitness reports, they lined up
the soldiers they captured along the wall of the building
and killed every single one of them.
We withdrew our support
for the Messengers of God Brigade after that.
We asked the Turks to do the same.
Well, looks like they ignored us.
That building?
That's the post office where it happened.
The militia only held it for a day.
If Lieutenant Tarkanian
posed for that picture...
He fought in a battle that ended in a massacre.
Tark committed war crimes.
Nice work.
That's why you wanted a recess?
You fought with the Messengers of God Brigade
on the day they executed
14 Syrian soldiers.
I...Don't say anything.
We're well into Lieutenant Tarkanian's court-martial.
You'll never get these pictures into evidence.
We know that. And even if you did,
the photos themselves are not evidence of any crime.
We're dropping the charges.
Excuse me? You're what?
Well, it's the only play we got left.
You want
a public forum to preach the Gospel according to Tark.
We're not giving it to you.
This is what you did when you deserted.
I doubt you murdered
anyone yourself, but you helped the militia
overrun that post office.
You thought
you could pick and choose your own missions,
and this is where you wound up.
One day around dusk,
Ghouta...Lieutenant, you don't need to explain yourself.
Right after a bomb impact,
I found a boy wandering in the street.
He must have been two.
His face was blue,
and my first thought was toxic inhalation,
maybe ammonia or chlorine.
He started spitting sand.
He was choking on sand.
How do you Heimlich 10,000 tiny obstructions?
I held him by his feet,
I dangled him above my head,
and with my fingers, I removed...
I dug sand out of his mouth and his throat.
And he lived.
Everything's bad there.
You can't avoid it, float above it.
You just... do good where you can.
That's exactly what William Dyer was doing.
He died because
you wouldn't make a deal.
A slap on the wrist and the Medal of Honor
weren't good enough for you, so three Marines died
on a road outside of Idlib.
All these people gone
just so you could make some point.
Find somewhere else to do it.
Hey.
Sorry, I didn't mean to ambush you.
No, it's-it's okay.
I'm making dinner.
We haven't really talked since I got back.
I don't know if that's how you want it.
This is bigger than just what I want.
I guess I've been trying to figure out
how to say that. I get it.
I have kids.
One of them's still trying to...
get used to the fact that her dad's gone.
I-I can't make that harder
for her. Would it help if I talked to her?
She just needs you to... be here.
She needs jokes.
She needs help with her homework.
She needs...
to know that you'll be around.
That's too much to ask. I know it is.
That's why I've been ducking this conversation.
Why is it too much to ask?
Because we should have time to figure this out.
That's-that's not the way it happened.
So I understand
if you... want space.
I don't.
I want dinner.
I got something for you.
It's an invitation to Lieutenant Tarkanian's
Medal of Honor ceremony.
You and I were each invited,
but Glen-One-N left both on my desk.
Did you RSVP?
Unable to attend.
Good night, Maya.
You'll be at Walter Reed
for at least a couple of days, but we are gonna get you home
as soon as we can.
Copy that, ma'am.
And they want you to start PT right away.
We're getting you set up with a prosthetist.
They say he's the best in the country.
Great. I'll return to 2/7 in six months.
Golf Company. Third Herd.
It's, um...
it's gonna be a-a minimum of 12 months
before the Marine Corps...I get it.
Coming around to the way things are.
Lots to figure out.
Huh? We'll get there, L-T.
Mom?
Um... I'm gonna be right back.
Hey.
Hi.
I-I should have told you.
I knew we were going somewhere dangerous. I lied.
It's okay, all right? Don't worry about it.
That's a bit formal for a drive to Loudoun County.
I can't leave this morning.
What's going on?
There's a funeral at Arlington.
I need to go.
I haven't told you much about what happened in Syria.
Captain Dyer.
He's being buried today.
He died in my lap.
