05- Red Gets 13 Demerits

Jerry at Ferrops. Come on Jerry, let's run for it. There's not a soul around. What do we have to run now, Forley? We're back on the campus.

Almost to Custis Hall. I know we are, Jerry, but we're supposed to be in our quarters right now, getting ready for meth. It's almost time to eat. Oh, then when we recall from play sounds, it's the same as called a quarters.

Yes, just about. Come on, now, let's hurry. Maybe we can make here with Hall without being seen. Oh, sure we can. Everybody's in the washrooms now. Boy, this is easy. I hope you're right, Jerry, but you never can tell just when one of the officers or even one of the cadet officers will show up just like they were shot out of nowhere.

Oh, we should have been watching the time instead of talking to Max alone. Maybe it was my fault. We were doing all the talking. Yeah, but you're not onto the routine yet. It's really my fault. I should have known that bugle was gonna sound recall.

Hey, Lee, look. Quick, let's duck around this corner. Uh-oh, too late. He spotted us. Who is it? Cadet Captain Carl Lockhart. His officer of the day to day. Well, I guess we didn't make it.

Too bad, Jerry. You're gonna get your first demerits. Yeah, and five of them, huh? That's right. That's right, Phillips. Yes, sir. I saw you two men coming through the arch just now. You weren't on the campus when recalls sounded that right?

Yes, sir. What's your excuse, Phillips? We haven't been. We, uh, we forgot what time it was. You're a new man, aren't you? Yes, sir. What's your name? Jerry Duganser. Well, forgetting the time doesn't constitute an excuse to you, and that's just carelessness.
