Lt Danny Green quotes from The Last Ship

LT Danny Green

Dear Maria, earlier this morning, our team executed a mission to rescue the sailors who were taken from Vietnam. We were successful, but not without losses. Your brother, Javier, was among the three brave sailors who gave their lives in the operation. This was not the first time he put himself in harm's way for his shipmates. And I can honestly say that I'm alive today because of him. Javier was more than a sailor, Maria. He was a hero. He was not alone in his last moments. His last thoughts were of you and his beloved nephews. Javier never gave up and never gave in. And he lives on in the hearts of those of us who were lucky to serve with him. God bless.

Kara. This sub... You've beaten them before. You'll sink it this time.

Don't you dare make me raise this child by myself.

That will not happen. Okay?

Captain Chandler... Before we begin, you're entitled to make an opening statement.

CAPT Thomas Chandler

I've spent half my life in the Navy. Like you, I did everything right. Worked my way through the pipeline just to get my chance to lead. Nathan James was my first command. Suddenly... I was thrust into a situation that no one can prepare you for. The world was turned upside-down, and all the rules were thrown out. But... the Navy taught me many things. Most importantly, it taught me to adapt. I had to make some difficult decisions. God knows I made some mistakes. But never once did I waver from what I knew to be right... The core values that run through all of our veins. Honor... courage... commitment. And I served my sailors as they served me and as we all serve this great country of ours. I didn't ask for this. I could've taken this uniform off at any time. But I always believed in the work that we were doing as a team, and the decisions that I was making as a captain. And though my tactics changed to address an insane world... my resolve and my dedication to the Navy never faltered. I stand by my record.

What the hell is this? [sees that the men are all from the Nathan James] I see. This was never about your guilt or innocence.

You forced our hand here, Captain. There was a moment today... where I actually had my doubts. Thank you for removing those for me. When the chips fall, if I'm proven wrong, I'll face justice from a higher power than you. Cooper, Green, please remove the officers and sequester them in Helo Bay 2.

Lt Danny Green

Gladly.

Captain, I need you to set a new course for Japan.

CAPT Mike Slattery

Yes, sir.

Sasha Cooper

We can't wait!

Lt Danny Green

Weapon now armed and locked! Requesting danger close fire mission! One five-inch round. I authenticate... Whiskey Lima Tango Niner Zero. Danger close. Confirm!

[Sighs] We copy, Vulture. Set one five-inch round. Over. Batteries release. Kill target with guns.

CAPT Tom Chandler

So Vellek isn't just injecting the fighters with Nostos, he's baking it right into their food.

LT Danny Green

It appears so, sir.

So that's why he wanted the seeds. He cures the Red Rust, mixes in the Nostos to create food that'll pacify his enemies.

It's the perfect weapon. People eating it won't even know.

Well, even if they did, what choice would they have?

Where is he... Tom Chandler? Where is he?

Danny Green

He couldn't be bothered.

Sasha Cooper

The war's over. Your army surrendered. Your turn.

I will only surrender to Tom Chandler, soldier to soldier.

We'll send your regards. Get on the floor. Now. [shoots Tavo when he tries to reach for a pistol; as he dies] Viva Tavo.
