SHERRI LAFLURE: Think I can come up with something like that.
MAGNUM: One question Sherri?
SHERRY LAFLURE: What's that?
MAGNUM: Who are we looking for? It has to be someone here at NIA..
SHERRI LAFLURE: It has to be someone who knows what is going on here..
These shipping lists are an important issue.
MAGNUM: Thought so...but we do have someone who is interested in the
ships leaving, also when they are enturning Pearl?
SHERRI LAFLURE: Maybe someone is planning a attack of some sort against
the fleet.
MAGNUM: The Patrol Boats are already on the look-out for anything....
thats why they were sent here.

Sherri looks down at the folder.
SHERRI LAFLURE: This is the bait...you had this figured out before I
came in here...didn't you?

SHERRI LAFLURE: Hows that Admiral?
MAGNUM: By making everyone believe these are the ships leaving, Norfolk

MAGNUM: Put it in a easy place...but a little bit hard to find...

A large hand grabs her arm and turns her to face the person standing there.

SHERRI: Sara is five years younger than Ken Morris, she doesn't know what
he has been involved in since she isn't at home except a few hours for
sleep and back to the hospital.

Morris now listens, he looks at the folder, opens the front and reads the
names.
MORRIS: Yeah...nice trick...but I don't believe it.
