for what we have.

And I will not let them

take that away.

Helicopters probe the

skies of Washington DC,

and have increased scrutiny of dams,

ports, borders, power plants.

New York City has its own massive

effort called Operation Atlas,

which includes monitoring for chemical,

biological, or nuclear agents.

Restricted airspace

above the city--

What's up, buddy?

Hey, Dixon.

I need your help.

I am f***ed!

I am f***ing f***ed!

So f***ed!

Look! I'm like fat and skinny

at the same time.

That's barely possible.

I knew I should've been working out

all these years.

Thigh Master.

Soloflex. That Abdominizer.

That f***ing skiing

machine thing.

Bowflex.

How do these people live?

Take that off.

Huh?

The 25 at the end,

take it off.

You alright?

Yeah, it's fine.

You sit down

over there, relax.

Oh, Dixon,

please help me.

Here you go, Dad.

My Dad. One of the youngest

pilots in the Air Force. Ever.

Your grandmother always said he

couldn't wait to go.

His 18th birthday he went down

and signed up.

Everybody knew it was the right

thing to do, but--

that was a different time.

A different war.

This is a decision you're gonna have

to live with--

the rest of your life.

This goes to the core

of a man

and nobody, not a father,

nobody,

can tell him what to do.

Can you get me out of it?

I'll try.

I'll talk to Senator Boone.

It's a strange political climate

right now.

I know, Dad.

I'll--I'll try.

Aw, get outta here.

Excuse me!

Excuse me,

young lady!

You know how to get

to Broadway?

I can't find my way.

You again.

Broadway is that way.

Yeah?

Hey, let me take you where you're going.

That's alright.

I'm okay. Thank you.

No, I got a special deal today

for girls with backpacks.

It's half offanywhere you

wanna go.

Really? Thank you,

I'm okay, though.

We got a small problem, you know.

I ain't gonna move till you get in

the car.

Come on,

what do you say?

Move!

You kidding!

Buddy, move it!

Now you're talking.

Alright, but

only because of that deal.

I promise you you

got the deal.

And you know you're gonna ride

in style, comfort and grace.

In the front?

Ever been

in the front seat?

Can't say that I have.

Where you headed?

My parole hearing.

Parole hearing, huh?

You're funny.

About halfway down the street,

by the school.

Oh, you like kids.

So, thanks for the ride.

Yeah.

Alright.

Alright.

Hey, good luck

with those kids.

Thanks.

They're easy.

Yeah?

Okay.

Thanks for picking me up.

You're welcome.

You have

a good one.

Take care.

Bye.

Bye.

I'll tell you what.

"Insert C7 into D7

and assembly is complete."

Hey.

Hey.

I love you.

I know.

I'm not going.

What the f*** you
