| Plot: | After suffering an injury during a routine patrol, hardened sergeant TK Poole is granted a one-month leave to visit his fiancé. But when an unexpected blackout cancels all flights out of New York, TK agrees to share a ride to Pittsburgh with two similarly stranded servicemen: Cheever, an older family man who longs to return to his wife in St. Louis, and Colee, a naive private who's pinned her hopes on connecting with a dead fellow soldier's family. What begins as a short trip unexpectedly evolves into a longer journey. Forced to grapple with old relationships, broken hopes and a country divided over the war, TK, Cheever and Colee discover that home is not quite what they remembered, and that the unlikely companionship they've found might be what matters the most. |

Goofs
|
Continuity: In one scene, Colee is grinning broadly. In the next scene she is opening her mouth to talk. Fact errors: Cheaver could not use his $20,000 re-enlistment bonus for his son's tuition. The bonus would be given in increments and would be heavily taxed. He would not get more than $8,000 of that initially. Revealing mistakes: The tornado that Colee and T.K. encounter is strong enough to blow whole bushes away, yet the car is undamaged. Continuity: When the bartender places the glass of tequila in front of T.K. at the airport bar, it is a little over half full. T.K. then takes a large swallow, almost emptying the glass. In the next shot, the glass is shown back on the bar and is even fuller than it was to when the bartender first set it down. |

Fred Cheaver: I'm going to go rent a car before there's none left. Colee Dunn: [looks at T.K. and Cheaver] Hey, we're from the same team! Colee Dunn: So how long do you have off? T.K. Poole: 30 days. Colee Dunn: Me too! [Turns to Cheaver] How long do you have? Fred Cheaver: The rest of my life. T.K. Poole: You don't talk about plane crashes while on a plane! Colee Dunn: Why not? Fred Cheaver: For the same reason that when you're on a cruise ship they don't play "Titanic". It scares people. Bob: [Trying to prove something to his anti-war relative] So what are we fighting for over there? Fred Cheaver: Well, we're just fighting to stay alive. Bob: [Surprised and disgusted] Well with attitudes like that it's no wonder we're losing! Colee Dunn: [a tornado is coming towards the car] T.K. if you stay in the car you'll die! T.K. Poole: If I get out of the car I might die! Colee Dunn: Thank you, Cheaver. Fred Cheaver: No. Thank you. T.K. Poole: [Is being advised by Cheaver to go to Canada] Anyone who goes to Canada is a coward! Fred Cheaver: You'd be a living coward, though. Colee Dunn: [T.K. is checking her wound] Have you done this before? T.K. Poole: No. Fred Cheaver: [T.K. has overcome the wound in his groin] You are one lucky bastard, T.K.

Uhm, that is great. Wow. We should get out. Colee Dunn: Hey Cheave! Guess what? Fred Cheaver: What? Colee Dunn: His penis works! [Points at T.K] Fred Cheaver: What do you mean? You got wood? Colee Dunn: Yeah, definitely wood! Fred Cheaver: So we dont need these ladies anymore? Colee Dunn: No, He is all fixed up. He could pound nail with that thing. Fred Cheaver: Pound a nail?
