A civilian boat violates an exclusion zone while directly approaching an Iraqi offshore oil terminal; it disobeys an order to stop; a US helo fires across the bow, then it disables the rudder; the Iraqi government protests; Harm investigates. While in the Persian Gulf, Harm also does his carrier quals in the F-18 Hornet; while doing so he intercepts a small civilian aircraft on a collision course with an oil rig, and he destroys the bird; unpleasant consequences follow, but it all works out. A Marine gunnery sergeant has commandeered an Iraqi civilian SUV at gunpoint; the owner of the SUV is the son of an Iraqi official who is a friend of the general; that too works out. A new JAG officer joins the gang, Mac quickly forms a dislike toward him, and the dislike increases.
