A scene from Down Periscope 1996
LT Martin Pascal
[During the Stingray crew's roll call...]

Engineman First Class Brad Stepanek!

EN1 Brad Stepanek
[looks at Dodge, unimpressed]

Sit on it and rotate, sir.

Pascal

WHAT?! What did you say, sailor?! You can't say that! [to Dodge] He can't say that!

Dodge

Pascal, down! Down! Heel!

Stepanek

By the Uniform Code of Military Justice, that constitutes gross insubordination, punishable by one month in the brig. [holds out his arms, as if for handcuffs] I'm ready to go, sir.

Dodge

Board the boat. I like a challenge.

Stepanek

You'll throw me off within a week. I'm a dedicated pain in the butt, sir.

Dodge

Stepanek...

Stepanek

What?

Dodge

If I throw you off, it'll be in the middle of the Atlantic. [beat] Board the damn boat.

Stepanek

Aw, man... [shoulders his kit bag and goes aboard] What's our mission, rescue Gilligan?

Pascal

YOU'RE MINE, MAGGOT!

Dodge

Ha! I love this job! And who's our next contestant?
