:32:08
No.
:32:09
lt is the Lordship's command that only
champagne be served in the mess tonight.

:32:26
Are you cosseted, young man?
:32:30
l have your orders, my lord...
:32:33
...to be here and eat lettuce.
:32:36
l am eating lettuce. l have eaten lettuce.
:32:42
What it tells, my lord,
is that as youngest officer...

:32:46
...you will expect him to eat
as a rabbit does, only lettuce.

:32:50
lt is signed by you, my lord.
:32:53
So green, boy, you have been drawn.
:32:58
Not my order, you should eat lettuce...
:33:00
...though perhaps it will put
some sap in your pizzle.

:33:11
Does this tomfoolery make officers?
:33:14
Perhaps, but it makes comrades.
:33:22
Do you think we could have some Moselle,
Nolan?

:33:24
-Of course. A bottle of Moselle, please.
-Thank you.

:33:28
We always depend upon
being seen to do our duty.

:33:30
l know if l'm up to something glorious
in the field, l insist upon being seen.

:33:34
There ain't much point, otherwise.
:33:36
-What color is the Russian enemy?
-Sneaky color.

:33:39
Gray. Your Russian is gray,
which is why he can't be seen...

:33:44
...which is why his promotion is slow.
:33:46
There ain't one above a corporal
in the whole lot...

:33:49
...which is why we will cut 'em up.
:33:50
With a little breeding,
an Englishman can buy his advancement.

:33:55
He and l are not able
to buy our advancement.

:33:57
We've had to obtain it by our abilities.
