Over the course of the film, Major Payne (Damon Wayans) softens up a bit and falls in love with Emily (Karyn Parsons), and he (uneasily) bonds with all of his cadets, especially Tiger (Orlando Jones), and he molds them into a solid team. However, when a new blind cadet makes wisecracks at him, he proceeds to shave both him and his seeing-eye dog bald with his field knife and laughs, showing that his sadistic nature has not completely left him. Three months later, at the start of the new school year, a mellower Payne is shown to still be an instructor, and he has settled down with Emily and Tiger. His cadets end up defeating the rival Wellington Academy cadets to win the games. This spurs him to turn down the assignment and go to the games to support his cadets. However, while waiting for his train to Washington the next day, Payne has a daydream where he, Emily, and Tiger are a happy family, and he finds it quite pleasing.
Of course, this means that he will miss the games and disappoint Emily and the cadets. The day before the Virginia Military Games, Major Payne is offered an assignment in Bosnia and a preliminary promotion to Lieutenant Colonel, which he accepts after he is told that he won’t get another chance to be Lieutenant Colonel if he refuses.
