Kaffee:
[Kaffee has just asked why Santiago hadn't packed despite being due to be transferred in a few hours after the time of his death. Jessup smirks]
Is this funny, sir?
Col. Jessup:
No, it isn't. It's tragic.
Kaffee:
Do you have an answer to the question, Colonel?
Col. Jessup:
Absolutely. My answer is I don't have the first damn clue. Maybe he was an early riser and liked to pack in the morning. And maybe he didn't have any friends. I'm an educated man, but I'm afraid I can't speak intelligently about the travel habits of William Santiago. What I do know is that he was set to leave the base at 0600. Now, are these really the questions I was called here to answer? Phone calls and foot lockers? Please tell me that you have something more, Lieutenant. These two Marines are on trial for their lives. Please tell me their lawyer hasn't pinned their hopes to a phone bill.
[Kaffee hesitates, dumbfounded]

Col. Jessup:
Do you have any more questions for me, Counselor?
Judge Randolph:
Lt. Kaffee?
[pause]

Judge Randolph:
Lieutenant, do you have anything further for this witness?
Col. Jessup:
[standing to leave]
Thanks, Danny. I love Washington.
Kaffee:
Excuse me. I didn't dismiss you.
Col. Jessup:
I beg your pardon?
Kaffee:
I'm not through with my examination. Sit down.
Col. Jessup:
Colonel!
Kaffee:
What's that?
Col. Jessup:
I would appreciate it if you would address me as "Colonel" or "Sir." I believe I've earned it.
Judge Randolph:
Defense counsel will address the witness as "Colonel" or "Sir."
Col. Jessup:
I don't know what the hell kind of unit you're running here.
Judge Randolph:
And the witness will address this court as "Judge" or "Your Honor." I'm quite certain I've earned it. Take your seat, Colonel.
