Arlo : Incurable nerve disease.
Draft Clerk : And you have it?
Arlo : It runs in the family! My father has it and my grandmother had it.
Draft Clerk : It says here, "Do you know of any reason as to why *you* might not qualify for military service?" Not your father, not your grandmother.
Arlo : I could get it.
Draft Clerk : But, you don't have it now.
Arlo : No.
Draft Clerk : [writes down on draft form] "None." You'll hear from us.
Arlo : Peace.
