Original subtitles

It wasn't me, sir.

You were found with his body, DeMar.

He was dead when I got there, sir.

Chief Sturdivant overheard you threaten.

We had words.

Words?

I'm going to choke the life out of you, and when we get back to port, I'm going

to find your mother and do the same to her.

I was upset, sir.

The victim was strangled to death.

Coincidence, sir? What do you want from me? I want a better answer. I don't have

one, sir.

If you didn't do it, who did?

That's it.

Interview over.

Sit down tomorrow.

No, no, no, no.

You want to stick it to me, fine, but don't expect a thank you, though.

You're not helping yourself.

I have nothing more to say to you, sir.

Sorry about that, sir. He's a major hawk.

That's where we are.

Better check it out. Yes, sir.

It's jammed, sir.

I can't open it.

The overhead hatch is stuck, Commander. The wheel won't turn. Feels like

something's blocking it. All right, we'll get some bodies down there and pry

out. What did we hit, anyway?

An uncharted reef.

Our surface search and sonar never even saw it.

Looks minor.

I'll be in touch.

Roger that.

What do you think, sir?

They're sending down a team.

Are we okay?

He's not worried. He's not down here, sir.

We're going to be fine, okay, Tamara?

Master at arm check.

Hey, how are things below the waterline?

Hatch is stuck. We're locked in.

That's not good.

They're sending down a team.

How's the suspect?

Angry, scared.

Well, what's the story?

Wrong place, wrong time.

You find out anything?

Yeah, I filled in some blanks on the victim.

Petty Officer Chinnick was apparently a one -man black market. Booze, drugs,

pornography.

I'm surprised he was murdered. Guys like that are usually pretty popular. Yeah,

not with their skippers.

Captain Salveras began hearing rumors about him a few days ago. He notified

they were going to bust Chinnick when they docked in Norfolk.

You know, maybe there's a connection.

I'll follow it from this end.

Hang on, Captain Salveras wants to say hello.

I apologize for the poor hospitality, Commander.

No problem, sir.

We'll have you out in time for a bedtime snack.

I'll ask my steward to conjure up some Swedish pancakes.

Well, I'll look forward to that, Skipper.

All right.

Stand by.

All right, sir.

Coffee, sir?

Thanks.

Where's the head?

Yes, sir.

I need you to let me in. Sir, I thought you were gone. I couldn't get in my car.

Why not? Because my keys are in my office, Tyner.

Actually, it's good you came back, sir. You forgot your itinerary.

Have a good flight, sir.

Sir?

Good night, Admiral.

How long has he been down there?

37 minutes.

I got caught in a carnival funhouse once for four hours.

Must have been terrifying.

Actually, I fell asleep on Dracula's coffin.

How's Jingo?

Your dog is fine, ma 'am.

I wish I could say the same about your bath, Matt.

Well, here's what I know, ma 'am.

This was Petty Officer Chinnick's first deployment.

Well, that's on his record, but anything else?

No, ma 'am. And Petty Officer DeMara?

Captain's Master Board, the USS Dubuque.

Right, but why?

Well, according to his former CEO, he had a habit of falling asleep during his

watch. Nothing more serious?

No, ma 'am. No behavioral problems?

Yes, ma 'am. Petty Officer DeMara was always on edge, and Petty Officer

couldn't be trusted.

In what way couldn't he be trusted?

You know.

In anything.

Petty Officer Daniels, we're aware that the victim was selling contraband aboard

ship. Were you a customer? No, ma 'am. But you knew about it? I suspected it.

Well, how about Petty Officer DeMar?

I would assume he knew, ma 'am. Do you have any idea why he would have

threatened to kill Petty Officer Chinnick?

No, ma 'am. But it didn't take much to set him off.

Where did you find Chinnick's body?

The main machinery room.

And what were you doing there?

I was checking the villagers, ma 'am. It was part of my afternoon watch.

As I was coming down the ladder well... I saw Petty Officer DeMara leaving.

When I went inside, I found Petty Officer Chinnick with a rope around his

Did DeMara say anything?

No, ma 'am. He just kept walking.

How would you describe his expression?

Anxious, ma 'am.

It's too close in here, Chief. I can't breathe.

Sorry. Come on, Chief. Let me out. You're cuffed by angles. I'll sit in the

corner. Can't take the risk.

Seriously, what could I do? Look, I'm not getting into this right now with

DeMara. So back away from that door.

What was that?

Must be trying to back off the reef.

All right, Chief. Phone's over. Come on. There's no emergency hatch in this

room. That's the whole point, Demara.

Let me out.

Hey, let me out!

Calm down, Demara. That's an order. It's brutal in here, sir.

You're as secure as anyone else aboard ship. There's no reason to panic. Just

calm down.

If you want something, don't bang on the door. Just ask.

Can you turn the lights back on, please, sir?

Hurrah, SEAL!

A .J.!

How's that final inspection going, Admiral? Better now that I know the

work.

Vice Admiral Richard Kern, tonight, when you step off this naval vessel, you'll

leave behind a leadership vacuum of immense proportions.

Hear, hear?

Hear, hear.

You came all the way out here for this?

Well, be happy I'm not.

popping out of that damn cake.

You consider yourself lucky, Colonel?

No more than anyone else. I've managed to avoid catastrophe all my life.

Caught the net when the exhaust from an F -18 launched me off a carrier deck.

Hailed out the butt end of a typhoon, slid past a crumbling iceberg.

Unfortunate. Sounds like it, sir. Until my ship ran aground in calm waters.

This is a career killer.

There's a difference between bad luck and negligence, sir. Not if Fleet

Commander has to yank us off this reef.

Well, if your record is strong, they might overlook it, sir.

Colonel, three years ago, one of the Navy's top ship drivers got the screws

his cruiser stuck in the Oakland estuary. They had to move.

heaven and earth to tow him free.

He was in the fleet commander's office the next morning.

I know of it, sir.

The captain's article 32 hearing was handled through our office.

Did you know he is now the manager of a hardware store in Wilmington? That was a

high -profile incident, sir.

Well, they'd at least kick me sideways.

You mean a death job?

I mean the command of a self -propelled suction dredge in Fiji Island, Colonel.

Attention on deck.

As you were.

Well, she's not good, Commander.

I'm checking the alternatives, sir.

What do we get by pumping out our holding tank?

Not much, sir.

We're sounding the fuel tanks to see if we can shift.

Will that raise her in the water? No, but changing her angle might give us a

better shot.

A long one.

I'd rather put an anchor instead of a winch roll.

The winch seemed to suffer some damage in the collision, sir.

We could try rocking her. The subject are holding more damage.

I need a plan that works, Commander.

That would be a tow, sir.

I'll call Second Fleet.

Aye, sir.

DCC. Edge, this is Commander Rapp. We have no power. We're on emergency

lighting. Now they have to free the ship. Must cause a short in the junction

box. What about getting us out of here?

Well, there's a big pile of debris blocking your overhead.

They're working on it as we speak. Can't you hear them? You hear me?

Too much extraneous noise.

Well, it shouldn't be long now.

I'll hold you to that, Commander.

Colonel McKenzie's here. You want to speak to her?

Please.

How are you?

Mac, take my mind off of this.

This is serious negligence.

Petty Officer Chinnick was conducting his business in the main machinery room.

Another petty officer on her afternoon watch saw DeMauro leaving. When she went

inside, she discovered the body.

That deal got bad.

Bad enough to provoke murder?

Why don't you talk to DeMauro?

I would.

occupied with mortality at the moment is he getting worse to say he's unstable

would be an insult to unstable people well at least he's locked up yeah so are

we

Hey, DeMar, you okay in there?

Screw you, chief.

What's he doing now?

Shivering in his rack, sir.

It isn't cold in here.

Yeah, well, I stopped trying to figure him out.

How about you? How are you doing?

I'm not afraid of the dark, sir.

How about tight spaces?

I think the time to get anxious is when there's no options left. Until then, you

just deal with it.

Adjust.

This sucks!

That's your petty officer tomorrow.

On our last anniversary, my wife presented me with a document.

She calculated how many years out of 19

We actually spent together.

Less than seven.

Retirement's a big step.

I'm ready for it.

I mean, given the miracles of modern medicine, hell, you could live to be

What are you going to do with the second half of your life?

Garden?

Actually, we're moving to France.

I'm going to take cooking lessons.

It's worse.

Dick, if you're doing this for your marriage, your marriage is going to

You have to be comfortable with this choice.

When we were SEALs, what did I always say about my performance, huh?

You couldn't be out in front. You'd rather be out of sight.

The skills diminish, AJ.

No, I don't see it.

The hearing's not as sharp. I've got a bulky knee.

Now, I can remember the name of my first damn gold thing, but I blank on the

XO's. It's not like I'm getting old.

Just a beat slower.

But you always held yourself to impossible standards.

That way you taste my risotto.

Sir?

I'll make a deal with you, sir.

What makes you think you're in any kind of position to make a deal, DeMara?

I'll answer any question you ask.

But you've got to let me out of here.

Right, and then you'll say I coerced your confession by locking you in a dark

cell until you agreed to talk.

Sir, I can't confess to something I didn't do, all right?

I'm merely agreeing to cooperate.

No promises, all right?

I understand.

I understand.

I have to win back your trust. Let me try.

Ask away. Anything.

Were you buying contraband from Petty Officer Chinnick?

Bourbon, sir.

He was overcharging me. That's why the argument.

Think about it, sir. Why would I murder somebody over $10?

You're an impulsive guy, DeMar.

Oh, sir.

Maybe you were overstressed.

You're doing it again, sir. You're jumping to conclusions.

Well, why else did you go to the main engine room if it wasn't to kill Cheney?

To buy bourbon!

Chief, did you find bourbon at the murder scene?

No, sir. What about in DeMar's locker under his rack?

None, sir.

Sir, I thought you were going to listen, you know?

And I thought you were going to be honest, DeMar.

Yeah, no, forget about it, all right? Forget about it. You can't get off my

long enough to see the other side.

What's on the other side?

Just like my mother. You know, my brothers cry and she'll smack me. It

that he was tired or that he smacked his leg on the table. Didn't matter. I was

guilty. I'm not your mother tomorrow.

Well, maybe you could be my father and disappear.

I'm going to get an ETA on this rescue team. Yes, sir.

The phone is dead.

What?

The phone's dead, Chief?

Open the door.

Open it now!

Let me out!

Let me out!

I told you everything I know!

This isn't doing anybody any good! Well, you'll be the last one from our team on

active duty.

It's an honor, A .J.

Or an indication that I can't let go.

Well, you don't need to, A .J.

You're an attorney. It's not like you drive ships around. That's true. If I

forget a statute, I can just look it up.

Do you?

What? Forget statutes.

Get you some more keg.

Commander Matoni can't find the files on the Billups case.

Your dry cleaner may have lost your green sweater, and I think a small

may have died inside your office wall, ma 'am.

Any good news, Lieutenant?

Sorry, Colonel.

But what about for the commander?

Miss Peterson called. I told her he couldn't speak to her because he was

below deck on a ship in the Atlantic.

What was her response?

Well, she assumed it was a lie, but liked the fact that it was a bald -faced

one, which meant that, in fact, he wasn't lying, but trying to send her a

that he wanted to talk, but that now wasn't a good time.

And I didn't feel the need to discuss it any further, ma 'am.

Wise of you, Lieutenant.

It's over three hours now, ma 'am.

I know, but... What's going on?

There have been complications.

He is going to be all right, isn't he? Of course.

You don't sound convinced, ma 'am.

No, I am.

I'm sure the worst is over.

Hold on.

Where? There!

How about letting me out of here now, huh?

Come on!

There's ductwork and drainage pipes back there, sir.

If they were damaged, one might be leaking into the other.

It's saltwater. It's got fuel in it.

Where's the closest fuel tank, chief?

I wouldn't know, sir. I would, sir. I'm a machinist, mate. There's one on board

of it.

That's against the hull.

It was ruptured when we hit the reef.

The hull opened up when we tried to pull away.

Well, then, uh...

Damage control could be on top of it, right?

No, no, no. Not if it's below the waterline. Hall checks wouldn't uncover

unless somebody actually got inside the tank. I know what's happening, sir.

The overfill is running up a sounding tube.

Well, then how's it getting to us?

Somebody must have left the cap off and it's flowing down a drain. I'm telling

you, sir, the entire ocean's flowing in here. What's next? Sea monsters?

Chief, please.

Time to let me out of here.

You'll get out of here when the rescue team arrives.

Let me out of here now!

Let me out! Back away from the door now!

Stand down, Chief.

Put the weapon away.

Talk to him, sir, please.

Please, tell him to let me out of here.

He's your prisoner, Chief.

Let me stay where he is.

Sir, bridge reports are bowed down two degrees.

I need flooding reports from repair to investigators ASAP. Aye, sir.

How's it going, Commander?

They're on top of it, Colonel. Well, maybe they'd have better luck if they

off of it.

You making jokes?

My partner's down there.

Yeah.

Some of the debris is jammed in real tight.

They've sent up for a cutting torch.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I have a ship that's taking on water.

So I started to look around.

Where's the damn fuel depot?

About this time, your admiral swims up, and he's covered with this muck, and he

stinks, and I go, hey, what the hell is the matter with you? And he goes, I

could ask you the same question, and I look down, I'm covered in this muck, and

then I get it.

This underwater pipe we were swimming through was for waste.

It wasn't industrial.

You were in a sewage pool.

That's where we're off.

It took us months to live that one down. Yeah, we get orders to report to the

head and stuff like that.

Had to chunk my regulator.

You ever die for pleasure? Used to. Been threatening to do it for years, just

never get around to it. It's a young man's sport.

From the bridge, sir.

Thank you, Petty Officer.

Aye, sir.

LST ran aground just north of us.

Is she foundering? No.

But they have two crew members and a JAG officer trapped below.

Sent a team to the USS Suribachi today.

I'll assume you want to be part of the boarding party.

Skipper. Yes, sir. Right away, sir.

Look, Chief, I don't think we have much choice.

Sure, sir?

We don't let them out now. When we do, the water will probably be over the knee

knocker and come flowing in the room.

I hear you, sir.

The water's freezing, but my feet are all wet.

Stay out till tomorrow.

Get underneath, face the bulkhead, and put your hands behind your back. Yes,

sir.

Yes sir, I do.

This is not a bright move, Tamara.

I don't know. I'm feeling pretty good about it.

You're trapped below decks in the middle of the ocean.

Yeah, well, at least I'm in control.

Well, why don't you give me the weapon?

No, no. Sit down. Now!

Secure the door, Chief.

Move!

No. No.

If you think you're any safer, you're mistaken, Tamara.

I want you to come right through that brick window.

Shut up! Sit down!

You think I'm an idiot? You think I don't know what's going on?

You talk to me like I'm crazy. I'm not crazy!

I don't think you're crazy, DeMar. I think you're crashing.

What is it?

Crack? Speed?

Petty Officer Chanik, your supplier?

Black Beauty, sir.

They keep me awake.

I've been kicking for two days.

That what you and Chinnick were arguing about?

Kept raising his prices, saying that his overhead had increased, and when I ran

out of money, he wouldn't carry me.

So you murdered him.

Well, I threatened him, sir. That's it.

I was hoping that after we both calmed down, that he'd change his mind.

It turns out I was right.

You lost me.

We used to leave notes for each other behind a pipe in the mess deck to

figure out when we'd meet.

After a couple hours, I checked. Sure enough, there it was. 1 ,400 hours in

machinery room.

So you went to the machinery room, expecting to be cut some slack, and you

him dead.

Yes, sir.

Well, you're either lying or you were framed.

Okay.

Excuse me, sir. Am I getting this right? Are you giving me a break?

I'm willing to give you the benefit of the doubt. That's what you want, isn't

it? Yeah.

Yeah, I wonder how open -minded you'd be if this was a cat pistol.

Look, I came here to discover the truth, not to railroad you.

What a frame, me.

Why don't we table this conversation for the moment until we figure out how to

save our skins, huh?

No. No, sir, you don't make the rules anymore, all right? It's my show now.

Think again tomorrow.

Not this theory.

Prepare to investigators have yet to locate the flooding.

Inacceptable voids have been founded.

The fuel tank indicators are showing full. It's a wait and see situation.

In the meantime, the Manassas has offered to tow us off the reef.

I'm plotting a course to open ocean at bare course steerage. The ship that's

moving is a more stable repair platform for the damage control teams. Well, what

about the rescue team? They're making progress, ma 'am. Shouldn't be long now.

Well, I understand that's what you've been saying for the last few hours.

Admiral, we've been impeded by power outages, communications breakdown, and

this fan of leak. Okay, best case scenario, where's this leak?

In a non -functioning compartment.

Worst case?

The brig, sir.

We're almost there.

Got it?

All right, take it away.

Dead calm.

Spare me the depressing metaphors, Colonel.

I'm sorry, sir.

I'm sure he'll be all right.

Yes, he will.

Now convince me.

Colonel, the commander's too damn pig -headed to leave this world. He will

a way out.

Even if they offer him wings, sir?

Well, I've always believed in the permanence of things, naively maybe, but

has gotten me this far. And farther still, sir.

You believe that?

Of course, sir.

Then why do you keep sending me reminder memos?

Excuse me, sir? And why are they in large type?

Well, sir, you have on occasion... Misplaced my reading glasses.

It's just in case, sir.

You know, Colonel, I've always respected your objectivity.

Thank you, sir.

Am I slowing down?

Sir, as we age...

Our physical skills diminish.

Wrong answer.

But our hearts grow stronger.

New age mumbo jumbo.

Well, that's what I tell myself anyway.

Glad you agree, thanks.

Don't mention it, sir.

I won't.

And incidentally, if you do to anyone, I'll be on your six faster than a

-to -air missile.

Understood, sir.

Captain, Pantel reports towing rig is secure and in place. Helmsman, verify

main control is standing by to answer all ordered bells.

Engineer, he's standing by to answer all ordered bells. Sir. Very well.

Prepare to get the hell out of here.

How long are we going to do this?

Keep talking, sir.

All right.

If you were framed, it had to be by somebody who knew that you and Petty

Chinnick were arguing.

That'd be a large portion of the crew, sir.

Somebody with a motive.

Someone who knew that you and Petty Officer Chinnick arranged a meeting.

Did everybody you met with Chinnick pass notes?

Yes, sir.

Typewritten.

Now, why would Chinnick want to meet you in the main machinery room at the

beginning of the afternoon shift where you could be spotted?

That's a good question.

Maybe Chinnick didn't write the note.

Chief, when you took the Meyer into custody... Did I find a note?

No, sir. Not on this person, not in his birthday compartment.

Was there a note? Yes, sir. I even kept it. I put it in the sweatband of my ball

cap. Well, where's your ball cap?

In my locker, sir.

When we get out, I'll run it for prints.

You'll do that, sir?

I will.

Then I'll lay the weapon down.

Why should I trust you, sir? Because he's all you've got, DeMora. Now give it

up.

Where's the pill coming from? Right there. Right there. Spill my chlorine

There's a battery compartment right near the IC dyro. There has to be a leak

somewhere. Salt water's mixed with the battery acid.

That's up, Denny. Ten minutes. Let's get this started.

Anybody there?

They're gone, sir.

There's nothing I can do.

Where are they? I can't see them, Chief.

They're on the far side.

Go!

They're gone, sir.

We're the only personnel you can save right now.

We got rising water.

Give me a hand locking this down.

Aye, sir.

Get out of here! Yes, sir!

Where are they, sir?

Do you smell something?

Chlorine. Coming from above.

All right, what's going on?

Sir, don't leave me here!

The hatch is closed!

What?

The wheel's stuck again.

They just opened it.

I'll be sick and stuck in bastards. We're still down here.

Help me!

Help me!

Help me!

Help! Calm down.

All right?

But you're no good to either of us if you waste your energy.

I got it, sir. I got it. Let me go or kiss me.

Good.

All right.

You got a sense of humor.

You'll need it.

Now, think.

Is there anything in here we can use for leverage?

I don't know, sir. Maybe... Maybe this isn't such a bad way for a Navy man to

go.

Well, it's a hell of a way for a Navy man to go. Now, think!

What the hell kind of leader are you? No decent officer on this planet would

leave men behind.

With all due respect, sir, I had every intention of returning.

Came back to get breathing devices. Then what the hell are you doing standing

here? My orders, Admiral.

Any rescue at this point would risk not only the spread of gas, but also the

flooding of other compartments. All right, let's say the water is leaking

another compartment, even a passageway. Could that sink us?

Perhaps. Well, then perhaps we should take that risk and get those men the

out of there.

Admiral, both men have been reported dead.

What's this, Petty Officer?

Yes, sir.

Why were we left behind?

The gas.

They got the chief out?

I guess he was lucky, sir.

Or desperate.

They both drowned.

Trapped beneath the waterline.

I managed to pull the commander out, but it was too late.

Did you try to move the locker?

Of course, ma 'am, but it was massive. There was just no way.

What about snorkels?

Well, there weren't any down there, sir. Try to improvise? With what, sir?

Well, I don't know, chief. You break the bottom off bottles. You rip pipes off

of bulkheads. Hell, there's two options right there.

Sir, it just happened so fast.

Whoa, wait, wait, chief.

I've seen men drown. It doesn't happen fast.

You said you pulled the commander out. Did you check his pulse?

I did, ma 'am. Administer CPR?

No, sir. The water level's too high.

Then why didn't you try to take him up the ladder?

Well, at the time... Or call the team down for help.

Well, I assume, sir... Assume what?

You assume what's helped thousands of drowning men and women wouldn't help in

this case?

Sir, ma 'am, I'm sorry.

But I did the best I could.

Sir, Minister Chief Master at Arms, the poor chip. Is it possible that he knew

about Chittick's operation?

Doubtful, sir.

Petty Officer Chinnick was a pretty smart guy.

Let's just say that he knew.

For argument's sake.

All right, keep talking, sir. Maybe you'll take my mind off the fact that

about to drown.

But you said that Chinnick raised his prices because of increased overhead.

Yeah, well, I thought he was lying, sir.

Well, what if he raised his prices because he was being squeezed by

Sir, you are fast becoming my favorite person of all time.

Colonel, you have no evidence they're alive.

And the only evidence they're dead is Chief Sturtevant's statement. And we're

not signing off on the Chief's statement.

Admiral, I don't know what to say.

Gut feelings are all well and good, but any attempt to go back down there will

risk not only this ship, but the lives of the men on that mission.

Point made. I'll make it as many times as I'm allowed, sir.

I hope you understand, Admiral. I understand perfectly.

There's a broken pipe under here!

If I could just count three.

That'll get me out, sir.

You can at least use it for a snorkel.

Sir. Sir, I need you. I need you up here.

Keep your chin up tomorrow.

How long, sir?

Do you pray?

Not really, sir.

Darth.

Sir. Sir.

What do I say?

This would be a lot easier if you'd give me a sign or something.

Thank you,

sir. What were you going to use, CBD?

Yes, sir.

Give me three of them. We need to keep out both the gas and the water, sir.

They're good for about what, 15 minutes?

Approximately, sir.

Don't give me time to get in and out.

I would think so, sir.

You know, sir, I had the instinct to check the brig, and I failed to follow

through, sir.

And I feel real bad about it.

That's why I should be the one going in. The captain won't allow it.

What about the two of us, sir? The only reason I'm going in is because they're

outranking. Yes, sir, you do.

You got a minute to suit up. Yes, sir.

Okay.

I'm going to try and leverage.

I'm just walking away from the ball pit.

If you feel it, move.

Try and pull your leg.

All right. Is there anything else I can do, sir? Just keep talking.

I need a topic, sir.

How about the most exciting moment in your life?

Other than this one?

Please.

That would involve sex, sir.

I'm listening.

Two here, sir.

You're going to need me to help open that hatch.

Thanks. Sir, you really shouldn't be doing this.

Lieutenant, I've got every reason in the world to be doing this. Let's do it.

Sir.

I was about to reach in the finish line, you know, sir.

And, um, I guess we hit an air pocket because the plane jumps like a thumb.

Try now!

No. Not yet.

You hit the head?

Part of the nerve.

Sir,

both our heads hit the ceiling and we come back down.

My foot lands in the toilet.

We're both just staring at each other.

And, uh...

Come with me tomorrow.

I can set them at this, sir.

The pie! The pie!

Captain, we have a merchant vessel set in the port bow, bearing 2 -9 -0

relative. Very well.

Helmsman, come right, steer course 3 -2 -0.

How did you do that?

Hey!

There's a gas up there. How are we going to breathe?

Concentrate on one obstacle at a time.

How are we going to get this hatch open?

Face that.

You got a towel I can borrow, Chief?

Chief Sturdivant found out that Chinnick was smuggling contraband aboard ships.

He was extorting a share of the profits.

But when he found out that Chinnick was going to be arrested, he murdered him to

prevent him from rolling over.

He left us to die because he knew I'd find fingerprints in DeMeyer's note.

It's been one hell of a night, Skipper. Gentlemen, my apologies.

No problem.

How did you know they were alive?

We didn't, sir.

But you were so confident.

Well, I suppose it comes from our experience with the commander, sir.

You're a tenacious man, is that it, Commander?

You ever try to get gum off the sole of your shoe?

Petty Officer Gamara.

Yes, sir.

Report to my office. Wait for me there.

You're not out of the woods yet.

Aye, aye, sir.

As long as I'm out of the water.

Commander. Thank you, sir.

Life is something, Petty Officer.

Yes, sir.

Admiral? I speak to you in private, sir.

Concerning? Concerning the rescue, sir.

Well, what is it?

Sir, it's probably better in private.

What? All right, sir.

Well, what happened down there was a miracle.

Well, Lieutenant, it's a bit of an overstatement.

Sir, what I mean is the tank you grabbed was practically empty, sir.

I just checked it.

You had maybe 15 seconds of air left, sir.

You must have misread the gauge.

Well, I'd say you nailed it, sir.

Yeah.
