:47:03
What's that?
:47:04
A new botanical garden.
Ain't you heard?
:47:08
When we anchored this morning,
he sent Olsen out with a special detail.
:47:11
Dug up a new palm tree.
:47:13
He's already set a 24-hour watch on that
new baby, with orders to shoot to kill!
:47:18
That reminds me, Ensign Pulver,
the Captain wants to see you right away.
:47:22
-What about?
-l don't know, sir.
:47:24
l'll come back to say good-bye later,
Mr. Roberts. Come on, Ensign Pulver.
:47:28
l bet those guys down in the laundry
starched his pajamas again!
:47:34
-You're pretty happy, aren't you?
-Yep.
:47:36
You're happy about it, too, aren't you, Doc?
:47:38
l think it's the only thing for you.
:47:42
What do you think of the crew now?
:47:44
They're all right. They're nice guys.
:47:48
How do you think they feel about you?
:47:50
They like me well enough,
till the next guy comes along.
:47:53
You don't think you're necessary to them?
:47:56
Doc, no officer is necessary to a crew.
:47:59
Are you going to leave this ship
believing that?
:48:02
lt's nothing against them, Doc.
:48:03
They're too busy lookin' out for themselves
to worry about anybody else.
:48:07
Well, take a good, deep breath, Buster.
:48:14
What do you think got you your orders?
:48:16
Prayer and fasting?
Sending in enough box tops?
:48:20
Dolan said one of my old letters turned up.
:48:24
This crew got you transferred.
:48:26
They were so busy
thinking about themselves...
:48:29
...that they took a chance of landing
in prison for five years, every one of them.
:48:34
You couldn't send in a letter for transfer,
so they sent one in for you.
:48:38
They knew the Captain wouldn't
sign it approved...
:48:40
...so they didn't bother him.
They signed it for him.
:48:43
Doc, what do you mean?
They forged the Captain's name?
:48:45
That's it exactly.
:48:50
lt was quite a thing to see, Doug...
:48:52
...the Captain's name-signing contest.
:48:55
Every man in the crew trying his best...
:48:58
...to copy that little scrawl of the Captain's.
