  • Is that why you fly the way you do?

  • Trying to prove something?

  • Yeah, your old man did it right.

  • What I'm about to tell you is classified.

  • It could end my career.

  • We were in the worst dogfight I ever dreamed of.

  • Uh...Bogies like fireflies all over the sky.

  • His f-4 was hit, he was wounded, but he could've made it back.

  • He stayed in it,

  • Saved three planes before he bought it.

  • How come I never heard that before?

  • Now, that's not something

  • The state department tells dependents

  • When the battle occurred over the wrong line...

  • On some map.

  • So you were there?

  • I was there.

  • What's on your mind?

  • My options, sir.

  • ( sighs )

  • Simple.

  • First, you've acquired enough points to show up tomorrow

  • And graduate with your top gun class.

  • Or you can quit.

  • There'd be no disgrace.

  • That spin was hell. It would've shook me up.

  • So you think I should quit?

  • I didn't say that.

  • The simple fact is, you feel responsible for goose,

  • And you have a confidence problem.

  • Now, I'm not gonna sit here

  • And blow sunshine up your ass, lieutenant.

  • A good pilot is compelled to always evaluate what's happened.

  • So he can apply what he's learned.

  • Up there, we gotta push it.

  • That's our job.

  • It's your option, lieutenant, all yours.

  • Sorry to bother you on a Sunday, sir,

  • But thank you very much for your time.

  • No problem.

  • Good luck.
