Seaman Jones quotes from The Hunt for Red October (1990)

Hear it now?

No.

Beaumont, at Caltech we used to do this in our sleep! You hear it now?

Wait a minute...

Uh oh...

Disparaged surface clutter...

Yeeeesssss?

I should go to SAPS?

Correct! Seaman Beaumont, Signal Algorithmic Processing System. Give it a week and you'll be teaching at Caltech. So, like Beethoven on the computer, you have labored to produce... a biologic.

A what?

A whale, Seaman Beaumont, a whale. A marine mammal that knows a hell of a lot more about sonar, then you do.

Conn, sonar! Crazy Ivan!

Capt. Bart Mancuso

All stop! Quick quiet!

What's goin' on?

Russian captains sometime turn suddenly to see if anyone's behind them. We call it "Crazy Ivan." The only thing you can do is go dead. Shut everything down and make like a hole in the water.

So what's the catch?

The catch is, a boat this big doesn't exactly stop on a dime... and if we're too close, we'll drift right into the back of him.

Capt. Bart Mancuso

All back full.

Captain...

Capt. Bart Mancuso

I said, all back full!

Back full, aye.

Captain, we're cavitating, he can hear us!

Capt. Bart Mancuso

Conn, aye. All right, Ryan, we just unzipped our fly. Mr. Thompson! Open the outer doors, firing point procedures. Now if that bastard so much as twitches, I'm going to blow him straight to Mars.
