[After Mike tackles Chefo to the ground in a game of rugby.]
I thought we were playing touch!
Yeah, we are. You’re touched.
[Spider and Kate are talking about Jaffa after he's been stung.]
They're going to be ok aren't they? Right? X?
I don't know Spider, I'm not a doctor.
But it's just a jellyfish sting.
Well, severe Irukandji syndrome can be fatal. I've got to get back to the bridge. If there is any change in his condition get Swain immediately. Understood?
Yes Sir... [Kate gives him a look.] Um, ma'am.
Hey, Buff. What’s your favourite Star Wars quote?
What?
Jaffah’s specialty subject.
[Opens a cupboard. Mutters.] Where the hell...?
Chewbacca. Am I right?
You seem like a discerning kind of guy.
Oh, thank you, ma’am. I like to think so.
Hmm. I’m curious. Have you ever had any restaurant experience?
[Smugly.] I did happen to work for a couple of months in a Darlinghurst cafe.
Oh! That’s perfect.
Why?
You’ve just volunteered for galley duty. I want you to prepare dinner for the crew. Nothing too elaborate
It’s disgusting in there!
And don’t forget our guests.
Three months working in a cafe in Darlinghurst doesn’t qualify me to feed these morons.
[After a severe reaction to Irukandji, Cheofo wakes up.]
Toby? Toby, what’s wrong, mate? [Chefo opens his eyes.] Tobes?
[Sniffs.] Who’s in my galley?
[Mike's letter to Jaffah's parents after his death.]
Dear Mr and Mrs Jaffah. It is with great sadness that I write to you as Seaman John Jaffah’s commanding officer. Words cannot lessen your grief. I hope it comes as some small comfort to know your son was a fine young man and a fine sailor. His sense of humour, his devotion to duty and his loyalty to his friends made him an asset to the navy and, in particular, to the HMAS Hammersley. He will be greatly missed by all who had the honour and privilege to serve with him and he will never be forgotten. Again, I offer you my most heartfelt condolences. May the Force be with Jaffah. Yours sincerely, Mike Flynn.
