Gridiron Gang - Building Leadership Through Team Sports
Sean:
Listen, Paul, we convince a kid to stop gangbanging, all we do is create a void. And unless we fill that void with somethin better, we're gonna lose em. According to the teaching staff, the kids here have trouble being punctual, responding to authority, being a member of a team, and accepting criticism. What one activity can improve em on all these areas?
Paul Higa:
You wanna start a football team?
Sean:
Exactly.
Paul:
Sean, look at them. Our whole system's designed to prevent them from making contact.
Sean:
Our whole system right now is a joke.
Ted Dexter:
Malcolm, you're not buying into this, are you?
Malcolm:
Seventy-five percent of our kids end up back in jail. How much worse could it be?
Ted:
Well, who are they gonna play against?
Sean:
I'll find em high school teams to play.
Ted:
Wait a minute, you wanna take em out of the camp? You really think you can trust these kids?
Sean:
Not now, no. But if they were a football team...
Ted:
Oh, come on, Sean. It's-it's impossible.
Sean:
Then let's try the impossible, because the possible just ain't workin'. Paul, we've got to give these kids a target and we've gotta fill that void. You played football, didn't you?
Paul:
Defensive end. Second Team All League. All right, we'll give it a try. But your neck is way out on this.

Universal Soldier - Decision-making Amidst Moral Dilemmas
Woodword:
We take him out to lose. He shot a man, for God's sake.
Colonel Perry:
Don't tell me what to do. Right now I need every soldier I've got. We'll go after them.
Woodward:
Colonel Perry, we've killed an innocent man.
Colonel Perry:
What you suggest we do, Woodward?
Woodward:
We have a moral obligation to tell the truth about this.
Colonel Perry:
I thought you are more clever than that, Woodward. The program is off the shelf. Do you really think the people from Pentagon will allow the regeneration of dead soldiers? American soldiers?
Woodward:
I don't think I can be part of this any more.
