Buffer[Attempting to talk to the fishermen.] Man, in barrel? Man, down there in barrel? Why?
[Bomber snorts.]
Buffer[Pointing at Bomber.] Shut up!
Sorry Buff.
And I think that's my pillow calling...
BufferCall the hands, call the hands, wakey, wakey, wakey.
I guess that's not my pillow calling after all.
BufferSorry Ma'am.
What do you know about these Buffer?
BufferThey go bang. You don't wanna be around when they do.
Just stay calm Spider. We'll have you out of here as soon as we can.
Pretty calm sir, just a bit uncomfortable.
BufferHow do you expect me to find you a pillow out here mate?
Didn't know there was another boat within cooee.
Buffer[Pointing to Hammersley.] Pretty hard to miss.
Sweet music to my ears.
BufferThat's the sound of you snoring big fellow.
I don't snore.
How do we frame our grief? How do we make sense of a life taken away so early? These are the things we will ponder for years to come and there are no easy answers. What is clear, though, is the way ET lived his life. He represented the finest values of the Royal Australian Navy. He believed passionately. He was loyal to his crew, and he never sharped his duty. He was courageous, diligent, and his sense of humour could defuse even the most difficult situation. He was a son, he was a brother, he was a friend, and he... he was a member of my crew. We will miss him.
I now commit Leading Seaman Joshua Holiday to the sea, may his soul rest in peace.
BufferGeneral salute, present, arms!
[Last Post plays in background.]
BufferPresent! Fire! Fire! Fire!
[While guns are firing, ET's ashes are poured out and into the wind, then Charge tosses a wreath into the ocean.]
[Under her breath.] Goodbye.
[Spider, 2Dads and Buffer doing inventory of stocks being brought aboard the ship.]
One box of paper towels.
BufferOne paper towel. [Checking the list against his list.]
[Spider and Buffer look at Robert approaching them. He was dropped off by the police after a drunken misdemeanor.]
BufferOne drunk sailor. [Referring to Robert coming aboard the ship.]
[Spider and Buffer grin at RO who glares back at them.]
I’m drunk. I’m way too drunk.
BufferYou got a drinking problem, that’s why.
I love you. [Tries to kiss Buffer’s cheek.]
BufferUncomfortable, mate.
If you were a woman, you’d be really ugly.
BufferIf you were a woman, you’d look like a bulldog eating porridge.
I hate porridge. [Arrive on the Hammersley.] I’m gonna have a slash.
BufferYeah. I’ll go announce our arrival. Honey, I’m home.
Hey, Buff. Have a good night?
BufferOh... oh yeah. A few too many.
You two alright?
Yeah.
BufferYeah, boss.
Never better, boss. We just, uh, wanted to thank RO for saving my life and... oh, and Buffer’s.
You drunk, 2 Dads?
... Yes sir. As a newt, sir.
BufferMe too, boss. Still handle myself though.
Get below, sleep it off.
BufferRighto. The ship’s safe. Buffer’s here!
