Slaughter is at the Lincoln Memorial asking for forgiveness in his darkest hour. These somehow continue to get more shameless as time goes on.

Another reason why this is all wrong: Sarge is demanding his country back, but he hasn't pledged to do anything to earn it back. There's no real change in him, not a bit of humility or contrition; he even says that he doesn't expect to be forgiven. Well, then why bother with all of this? It's almost business-exposing if you think about it, like Vince is saying, "Please cheer this man. He's already lost to Hogan, and I have no good guys for him to fight that will make me any money."

 

This turn would have been a whole lot more effective if it had taken place as the result of an altercation between Sarge and Adnan/Sheik; that's Booking 101. Why Vince thought these little thirty-second vignettes would be enough to make the fans forget all the months that Sarge trashed this country and supported its opponent in an actual shooting war, I doubt even he knows for sure.
