A scene from The Hunt for Red October 1990

Flight Attendant

The flight will go much faster if you do try to get some sleep.

Ryan

I don't sleep on planes. Turbulence.

Flight Attendant

Pardon?

Ryan

Solar radiation heats the earth's crust, warm air rises, cool air descends: turbulence. I don't like that.

Flight Attendant

Oh. Well, try to get some sleep anyway.

Jack Ryan Where are we going, anyway? Admiral James Greer Briefing for Jeffrey Pelt, the President's National Security Advisor. Most of the Joint Chiefs will be there, along with a few other people. Jack Ryan Who's giving the briefing? Admiral James Greer You are. Jeffrey Pelt You slammed the door on the General pretty hard, didn't you? Jack Ryan That was not my intention. Jeffrey Pelt Oh, yes, it was! He was patronizing you, and you stomped on him! And in my opinion, he deserved it! Jeffrey Pelt Mr. Ambassador, you have nearly a hundred naval vessels operating in the North Atlantic right now. Your aircraft has dropped enough sonar buoys so that a man could walk from Greenland to Iceland to Scotland without getting his feet wet. Now, shall we dispense with the bull? Ambassador Lysenko You make your point as delicately as ever, Mr. Pelt.
