When did you first learn
about Captain Queeg's relief?

When did you first learn
about Captain Queeg's relief?
1:34:03
Mr. Maryk oaf led us to the bridge.
1:34:05
When we arrived, he told us
he'd assumed command.
1:34:08
Did Captain Queeg show any
external signs of being sick?
1:34:12
At the height of a typhoon,
nobody looks very well.
1:34:15
Didn't you realize that Captain Queeg's
warning to the other officers...
1:34:20
about collusion in mutiny
was well-founded?
1:34:23
-I did.
-Then why did you take no action?
1:34:27
I wasn't present when
the captain was relieved.
1:34:29
So I didn't know what he'd done
in a critical moment...
1:34:31
to have convinced the executive
officer he was sick.
1:34:35
For the safety of the ship, my best
course was to obey Mr. Maryk's order...
1:34:39
until such time as higher authority
endorsed or overruled his action.
1:34:44
During all the period Captain Queeg
was in command of the Caine...
1:34:48
did you observe any evidence
of insanity in him?
1:34:52
I can't answer that question
intelligently, not being a psychiatrist.
1:34:56
Did you ever have any reason to think
Captain Queeg might be insane?
1:35:01
Objection.
The witness isn't an expert.
1:35:03
Matters of opinion
are not permissible evidence.
1:35:06
Strike it from the record.
1:35:07
At anytime prior to the 31st of July...
1:35:11
did you know Mr. Maryk suspected
Captain Queeg of being mentally if I?
1:35:15
Yes.
1:35:17
Mr. Maryk showed me a medical log
he'd written on Queeg's behavior.
1:35:21
Did you believe that log justified
the relief of Captain Queeg?
1:35:27
-Well, sir--
-Yes or no.
1:35:36
No, sir.
1:35:39
Mr. Maryk was a close friend of mine.
1:35:42
He persuaded Mr. Keith and me
to see Admiral Halsey.
1:35:46
When we arrived, I told him
as forcibly as I could...
1:35:49
that the log didn't justify
such action...
1:35:52
and that we'd all be liable
to a charge of mutiny.
1:35:55
Were you surprised
when Mr. Maryk relieved the captain?
1:35:59
I was flabbergasted.
