Lt. Cmdr. Matt T. Sherman : Mr. Watson, how are the plates?
Lt. Watson : Tight as a drum sir.
Lt. Cmdr. Matt T. Sherman : And the engines, Tostin?
Chief Mechanic's Mate Sam Tostin : Factory fresh, sir.
Lt. Cmdr. Matt T. Sherman : Well how about it?
Capt. J.B. Henderson : I say take your thieves and these liars here and get the hell out. Oh there's one stipulation, you'll engage no enemy shipping and that includes lifeboats. Even if you see one of them swimming in the water, avoid him. He might kick a hole in your side. Good luck Matt.
