A scene from Stripes 1981
Russell

[tackling Winger who is trying to escape]

Where do you think you're going? Are you going AWOL? Are you going AWOL?

Winger

No, I'm deserting.

Russell

You idiot! You desert now, it's a federal offense!

Winger

I'll take my chances with the feds!

Russell

You're not going anywhere! You listen to me! You're gonna finish basic training! You're gonna keep your mouth shut, and you're gonna do everything he tells you! You know why?

Winger

Why?

Russell

Because you talked me into this, you idiot! It was your idea!

Winger

I didn't talk you into this. You NEEDED this.

Russell

[drags John back to the ground]

I'm gonna kill you, damn you! Where's the great pay? Where's the travel? Where's the Winnebago, Goddamnit!
