ChargeAh, salmon vol a vaunts, number five on my list of all time favourite horses doovers.
Fascinating. What’s your number one?
ChargePig in a blanket.
Does anybody... oh, sorry. Can anyone tell me where the gents is?
Bathroom.
ChargeHow many of those have you had?
Two? Three? I just, um... they’re very nice.
Ah, no, mate, I haven’t spotted the head yet. Might want to try downstairs, though.
Thank you.
Ah, Robert?
Mmm?
Stay away from golf buggies.
ChargeAnd the transsexuals.
[A scene later, he gets attacked and shoved down a flight of stairs.]
So, who do you think he’s protecting?
He fancies Bird. Was it you?
No.
ChargeNo, Bird was cleaning ovens all night, Bomber.
Not all night, Charge.
Bomb, she didn’t leave the ship.
Where were you, Bomber?
Wasn’t me.
ChargeCourse it wasn’t.
Oh, come on, she wasn’t even there. [Bomber turns to look at him.] Were you?
Oh, what? So I’m invisible now? Get out of my galley.
Well, six hours left, 2Dads. Time to spill your guts.
Come on, 2Dads, tell us.
At least tell Bomber it wasn’t me.
Listen everyone, I think the right thing to do is whoever did it to fess up themselves.
ChargeThat’s right.
[Silence.]
Oh, that went well.
You should have pointed your feet at his head.
Sorry, RO?
Well, Thai’s believe that the head is holy, the feet unholy, the worst thing you can do is point your feet at their head.
[Exasperated.] Thanks for that, RO.
[Sincerely.] You’re welcome, sir.
ChargeFeet?
Yeah.
You all think you know CPR back to front.
ChargeRPC!
Even human fat's worth big bucks in the cosmetics industry. You're a walking gold mine, Charge.
ChargeHave you ever thought about selling your brain? It's not like it's being used.
[Bomber and Charge in the bridge of the Rosyln Bay while the Hammersley is looking for 2Dads.]
Is there anything I could help with?
ChargeWhy did you volunteer for this detail?
I didn't want to be there when they called off the search. So, is there anything I could help?
ChargeNo, just stay on the shipping lane. A monkey can do this.
Remember when he brought that monkey onboard?
ChargeIdiot!
This is the Coast Watch Announcement. Attention all shipping. The Sudbury Kay - a person's been spotted by Civilian Aircraft on the kay in need of assistance. There are no further details at this time, any vessel in the area, please respond. Over.
ChargeSudbury Kay!
Charge!! That's way south of the search area. It couldn't be him.
ChargeWhy not?
Well, not if he was diving up in Saxon Reef. It's against the wind direction, current - it's impossible.
ChargeBut what if he wasn't on Saxon Reef?
What?
ChargeWhat if they were diving up in Palau Reef? What if Herry Edwards created a fake search area to the north, so he could find 2Dads by himself? That's why he didn't go back to port!
And what about that poor girl's leg?
ChargeThey planted it!
Why?
ChargeI don't know why! I am going to take a look.
No Way!
ChargeYou steer the ship, I'll take care of the engines.
[Charge and 2Dads walking on the docks. Charge is apologising to 2Dads for walking out on him at the last minute in their scuba diving trip where 2Dads almost died.]
ChargeIf there is anything else I can do. If you ever wanna go on another dive trip, I will do it. I will make myself do it.
I don't think I'm gonna be doing that for a while. There is one thing I've always wanted to do.
ChargeWhat is it?
Just haven't found anyone to do it with.
ChargeHey, I'm there. I'm your guy. Name it.
Skydiving.
[2Dads walk away. Speechless, Charge looks up as if already dreading should it happen.]
If it looks like a duck and it quacks like a duck,its a duck.
ChargeOr a goose...
No, Geese honk!
There’s no one below decks, X.
ChargeYou sure?
Apart from Harold Holt and Osama bin Laden, yeah. I’m sure.
ChargeJust one question, sir.
Yes, Charge?
ChargeWith Bomber away, who’s gonna cook for us?
Well, I’m sure we’ll manage. RO, you’ve had experience in the galley.
Uh, I think that we should probably go back and get her, sir.
How hard can it be to burn a bit of scran?
Seriously, I think that we should go back and get her now.
ChargeHe may be right, sir. If you could remember back to last time. There was... problems.
Bird, can you cook?
Uh, a bit, sir.
You can give RO a hand in the galley.
Great!
There you go, RO. Enthusiastic helper. Just keep it simple.
We all die, it’s not my fault.
ChargeWe will die.
[Mike chuckles.)]
[RO returns to the bridge, Charge stops him.]
ChargeHow’s lunch?
Bird and I had a disagreement about condiments. She’s finishing it up.
