Transcript

COLONEL CHRISTOPHER BLAIR: Hell! They learn how to make a decent cup of coffee on this tub yet?

MAJOR TODD "MANIAC" MARSHALL: It was just a few hands. The Aces just kept coming my way. You know he was dealing most of the time.

COLONEL CHRISTOPHER BLAIR: Maniac, you're an idiot.

MAJOR TODD "MANIAC" MARSHALL: I know. Maybe if I hadn't gloated so much. You know, shoved it in his face like that.

COLONEL CHRISTOPHER BLAIR: That's not what I'm saying. You think that Vagabond lost the will to live �because you beat him at cards?

MAJOR TODD "MANIAC" MARSHALL: I never beat him before.

galley - Maniac (sliding) -g1 CONDITION: Scene available ONLY IF Blair comes from Series E.

Blair takes a seat across from Maniac, who's staring morosely into the bottom of a cup of black coffee.

Blair They learn how to make a decent cup of coffee on this tub yet?

Maniac's mind is clearly elsewhere.

Maniac It was just a few hands... Aces kept coming my way... He was dealing ... most of the time...

Blair shakes his head and speaks softly.

Blair Maniac ... you're an idiot.

Maniac I know. Maybe if I hadn't gloated so much. Rubbed it in like that--

Blair That's not what I mean. You think Vagabond lost his will to live just because you beat him at cards?

Maniac still doesn't get it.

Maniac I never beat him before...

Blair just rolls his eyes and leaves.
