[in a flashback, General Campbell talks to Elisabeth Campbell about her rape at West Point]
Lt. Gen. Joseph Campbell:
[General Campbell sits over Elisabeth's hospital bed, staring into her bruised and beaten face]
Daddy loves you... and he's so proud of you. Shh. Rest now. Try not to think about it anymore.
Lt. Gen. Joseph Campbell:
[Elisabeth tries to speak]
Shh. No, shh. Baby, listen to me. I only want what's best for you. Trust me. Do you? Hmm? Like you always did?
Lt. Gen. Joseph Campbell:
[Elisabeth smiles nodding up and down]
Then don't ever think about any of this again.
Lt. Gen. Joseph Campbell:
[Elisabeth's face suddenly freezes]
I know, I know, it was an awful thing. A terrible, terrible thing. But thinking about it won't help it, so... close your eyes.
Lt. Gen. Joseph Campbell:
[General Campbell lowers his head closer to Elisabeth as she pulls her head back, in a low voice General Campbell whispers as Elisabeth has a tear run down]
It never happened. None of this... ever happened.
[General Campbell then kisses Elisabeth's forehead as she tries to turn her head away]
Lt. Gen. Joseph Campbell:
[in the present]
Not my finest hour.
