Colonel Winter, who runs the prison with an iron fist, deeply admires the General, but works with completely different methods in order to keep up discipline. After a short while, Irwin can feel Winter's unjust treatment of the inmates. He decides to teach Winter a lesson by taking over command of the facility and thus depriving him of his smug attitude. When Winter decides to participate in what he still thinks of as a game, it may already be too late to win.

Quotes:

Irwin: [Winter is trying to compromise with Irwin] No. Not OK! It's too late, Colonel.::Winter: Too late for what?::Irwin: For your offer. The men don't want to salute. They don't want to use rank. They don't want better food and they don't want more TV. They just want your resignation... and so do I.::Winter: My resignation?::Irwin: You're a disgrace, Colonel! A DISGRACE to the uniform! You should not be allowed to retain your command!::Winter: Well then, I guess I'd better go pack.::Irwin: I think you should.::Winter: Tell me, Mr. Irwin. What's to stop me from simply placing you in the HOLE for say six months?::Irwin: Nothing. If that's the way you want to win.

[first lines]::Irwin: Take a look at a castle. Any castle. Now break down the key elements that make it a castle. They haven't changed in a thousand years. 1: Location. A site on high ground that commands the territory as far as the eye can see. 2: Protection. Big walls, walls strong enough to withstand a frontal attack. 3: A garrison. Men who are trained and willing to kill. 4: A flag. You tell your men you are soldiers and that's your flag. You tell them nobody takes our flag. And you raise that flag so it flies high where everyone can see it. Now you've got yourself a castle. The only difference between this castle and all the rest is that they were built to keep people out. This castle is built to keep people in.

Gen. Wheeler: You know, I've been hearing some pretty disturbing things about what goes on in here, and now I'm hearing them from a man I trust and who's opinions I respect!::Winter: May I speak freely, sir?::Gen. Wheeler: Granted.::Winter: With all due respect, sir, I don't know what you've been 'hearing'. But until you've spent some time in the yard with those animals you have no idea what happens in here.::Gen. Wheeler: Point taken, Colonel. Nevertheless, if I hear of anyone else dying under your command, you are THROUGH here. Do YOU understand ME?::Winter: Yes, sir.

Irwin: I'm not fighting anyone or anything, anymore.

Irwin: Colonel. I'm taking command of your prison.::Winter: Like hell you are!

Yates: I thought there was one thing that you should know, when they take the castle the are going to hang the flag upside down.::Winter: Upside down?::Yates: It's the international sign of distress.::Winter: Yes I know what it means. Where exactly do the plan to get a flag?::Yates: They already have one... Yours.::Winter: My Flag?...::[goes to his flag box, sees that the flag is gone]::Winter: Peretz who was in here yesterday?::Yates: I took it you murdering fuck!::Winter: I thought you were smarter than that.::Yates: Ya I know you did.

Doc: You call a three star general, "Man?" What are you going to call him next? "Dude?"

[Irwin and Enriquez are playing chess]::Irwin: Hmm, pretty good. You have check-mate in five moves.::[moves a piece]::Enriquez: [pause] How come you're still playing if I have check mate in five moves?::Irwin: 'Cause I have check-mate in three.

Irwin: [while looking at Winter's military collection] Any man with a collection like this is a man who's never set foot on a battlefield. To him a minié ball from Shiloh is just an artifact. But to a combat vet, it's a hunk of metal that caused some poor bastard a world of pain.

[on having his hands visible all the time during Gen. Wheeler's visit]::Irwin: I guess that rules out the hand-job.

Quotes:

Raymond 'Ray Ray' Bennet: Coach Conor? You're not really trying to get Ms. Wilkes, are you?::Conor O'Neill: No.::Raymond 'Ray Ray' Bennet: Good. 'Cause I already tried and she ain't havin' it.::G-Baby: Yeah, me too.

Raymond 'Ray Ray' Bennet 's mother: Miss Wilkes said she had a good feeling about you.::Conor O'Neill: Miss Wilkes said that?

Elizabeth Wilkes: So you work for Smith & Stevens Securities?::Conor O'Neill: Yes.::Elizabeth Wilkes: What deal did you blow?::Conor O'Neill: What?::Elizabeth Wilkes: Well, I'm sure you're not coaching this team by choice.

Conor O'Neill: I want you guys to take a good look at yourselves and feel proud. We made it here. We're here. What I've learned from you is that really one of the most important things in life is showing up. I'm blown away by your ability to show up through everything that's gone on. The league never wanted you to play this game, but you showed up. But, uh, we only have eight players so, we can't play.

Conor O'Neill: Good morning. Um, Gerius was a player on the Kekemas baseball team I coach. Honestly he, uh, he was too young to play. But he wanted to be a part of the team so badly, I couldn't say no. He had a great smile too though I'm not telling you anything you don't know. He was a really tough guy. Just a boy really who, uh, wanted to be around his older brother. The other day we played a really important game against a good team. And two outs in the last inning, I had no choice but to let Gerius bat. He was fearless as he stepped to the plate. I was terrified for him. With two strikes and our hopes dwindling, he hit a shot down the first base line. He won the game. And watching him raise his arms in triumph as he ran to first base, I swear I was lifted in that moment to a better place. I swear he, uh, he lifted the world in that moment. He made me a better person, even if just for that moment. I am, uh, forever grateful to Gerius for that.

Kofi: It was booty. That girl Meg is dumb. Thinkin' her fathers comin' back from wherever. That's stupid to believe in. That girl and her mom are both trippin'. Cuz where I'm from... don't nobody's father come back.

Conor O'Neill: What? Since you can't talk shit, you got nothing to say?

Conor O' Neill: Hey! Can we cool it with the bitches?

Conor O' Neill: I love it when you call me big poppa!

Kofi: You suck... just like my girlfriend.
