:27:11
Mr. Jones.
:27:13
You're in my bunk.
:27:15
Mr. Jones...
:27:21
I'm terribly sorry.
:27:24
- Found him in my bunk, captain.
- Yes.

:27:26
Woke me out of a rotten sleep.
Asinine reflex.

:27:28
Idiotic. It won't happen again.
Endless apologies.

:27:31
- Do you always sleep with that thing?
- Childish habit, yes. It's your bunk? Sorry.

:27:36
Considering your reflexes,
maybe we better take that.

:27:38
No, captain. I have to be
tucked up with it.

:27:41
Security blanket,
that kind of thing.

:27:42
Good. This'll loosen the old
fiddle strings. Will you join me?

:27:46
No, thank you.
:27:47
Recognize these coordinates?
:27:50
Yes, sir.
:27:51
Tell Court to lay out a track.
:27:53
Aye, aye, sir.
:27:55
Some startling new development, captain?
:27:59
We've been ordered to a surface
rendezvous, 59 north, 4 west.

:28:03
That's just off the Orkney Islands.
It's with whom or what we don't know.

:28:07
And you think that I do.
Scout's honor, I haven't the foggiest...

:28:10
...although I assume it's more about
my end of the business than yours.

:28:14
Happy days.
:28:16
Mr. Jones, I deal with secret orders...
:28:18
...classified information,
almost every day.

:28:21
- I can't say that I've ever learned to like it...
- And I am very glad that you don't.

:28:26
Leave that sort of thing
to the people who are trained for it.

:28:29
Right, captain?
:28:31
I still feel all kinds of a fool
about that set-to with Hansen.

:28:34
It's what he called me, you know.
:28:36
Out of a sound sleep.
:28:38
- What did he call you?
- Jones.

:28:40
Bad name. Bad connotations.
:28:42
I once killed a man called Jones.
:28:45
Not for that reason, of course.
:28:48
- That's not your name.
- Isn't that obvious?

:28:50
Actually, it's a code cover name.
Brilliant deception, don't you think? Jones.

:28:54
Practically a revelation, coming from you.
:28:58
Captain.
:28:59
You've already guessed
that I'm some sort of sneaky bastard...
