- Admiral Thomas Boone: You see Jennifer Lopez twice a year?
- Cmdr. Harmon 'Harm' Rabb, Jr.: Every time I get my teeth cleaned. She's my dental hygienist.
- CAG USS Coral Sea: The inspector general is on his way to the ship for a surprise visit. He wants to question my pilots, see if they're battle-ready. That makes you eligible for the Lakehurst run, Commander.
- Cmdr. Harmon 'Harm' Rabb, Jr.: Yes, sir.
- CAG USS Coral Sea: I prefer it would be you, Admiral, but you're no longer cleared to fly front seat.
- Admiral Thomas Boone: You have nothing to worry about, CAG.
- CAG USS Coral Sea: Enjoy your holidays.
- Cmdr. Harmon 'Harm' Rabb, Jr.: CAG, about your aircraft...
- CAG USS Coral Sea: No soft-focus moments, Commander. I will not allow you to undermine a perfectly valid level of resentment. You get her up, and bring her down.
- Cmdr. Harmon 'Harm' Rabb, Jr.: Yes, sir.
- CAG USS Coral Sea: And if you do anything other than fly to your established destination... I will personally see to it that your wings are yanked.
- Admiral Thomas Boone: Between us, we've logged more flight time than anyone in this airwing.
- CAG USS Coral Sea: And if the commander hadn't dumped a $40 million aircraft into the Atlantic last year, I would be satisfied with that answer, sir.
- Cmdr. Harmon 'Harm' Rabb, Jr.: A mishap review board cleared me of pilot error, Captain.
- CAG USS Coral Sea: I read the report. Don't agree.
- Cmdr. Harmon 'Harm' Rabb, Jr.: The aircraft had taken a hard landing, CAG.
- CAG USS Coral Sea: And she was in flying condition at the time she left the deck.
- Admiral Thomas Boone: Well, you weren't sitting in his seat at the time, CAG.
- CAG USS Coral Sea: I was a week earlier, sir. The plane was my ride. I was waiting for her at Pax River at the time.
