Capt. Jack Aubrey: This is the second time he's done this to me. There will not be a third.
Capt. Jack Aubrey: For England, for home, and for the prize!
Preserved Killick, Captain's Steward: Ugh, here we go again. Scrape, scrape, scrape!
Capt. Jack Aubrey: Master at arms, take that man below and clap him in irons.
Joseph Nagle, Carpenter's Mate: Captain's not called Lucky Jack for no reason.
1st Lt. Tom Pullings: But we have no alternative... we must turn and fight! He must have been hiding in some inlet and waited until we passed!
Dr. Stephen Maturin: I've never seen a braver patient.
Come on, come on. It's all right.
Capt. Jack Aubrey: I never realized that the study of nature could advance the science of naval warfare.
Dr. Stephen Maturin: Mr. Howard, let me beg you, if the men can't eat it or I can't dissect it, please don't shoot it.
Preserved Killick, Captain's Steward: Which it will be ready when it's ready.
Capt. Jack Aubrey: This is the second time he's done this to me. There will not be a third.
Capt. Jack Aubrey: For England, for home, and for the prize!
Barrett Bonden, Coxswain: Hello! We've caught a fish!
Preserved Killick, Captain's Steward: Ugh, here we go again. Scrape, scrape, scrape!
Joseph Nagle, Carpenter's Mate: Captain's not called Lucky Jack for no reason.
Capt. Jack Aubrey: Tell me that wasn't fun!
Capt. Jack Aubrey: Master at arms, take that man below and clap him in irons.
Capt. Jack Aubrey: I never realized that the study of nature could advance the science of naval warfare.
Dr. Stephen Maturin: I've never seen a braver patient.
Preserved Killick, Captain's Steward: Come on, come on. It's all right.
Capt. Jack Aubrey: Run like smoke and oakum!
1st Lt. Tom Pullings: Steady now, lads. Keep calm.
Preserved Killick, Captain's Steward: Which it will be ready when it's ready.
Dr. Stephen Maturin: May I have the coin, please?
1st Lt. Tom Pullings: But we have no alternative... we must turn and fight! He must have been hiding in some inlet and waited until we passed!
Dr. Stephen Maturin: Mr. Howard, let me beg you, if the men can't eat it or I can't dissect it, please don't shoot it.
Capt. Jack Aubrey: Do you see those two weevils doctor? Dr. Stephen Maturin: I do. Capt. Jack Aubrey: Which would you choose? Dr. Stephen Maturin: Neither; there is not a scrap a difference between them. They are the same species of Curculio. Capt. Jack Aubrey: If you had to choose. If you were forced to make a choice. If there was no other response... Dr. Stephen Maturin: Well then if you are going to *push* me... Dr. Stephen Maturin: ...I would choose the right hand weevil; it has... significant advantage in both length and breadth. Capt. Jack Aubrey: There, I have you! You're completely dished! Do you not know that in the service... Capt. Jack Aubrey: ...one must always choose the lesser of two weevils.
Dr. Stephen Maturin: Jack, have you forgotten your promise? Capt. Jack Aubrey: Subject to the requirements of the service. I cannot in all conscience delay for the sake of an iguana or giant peccary. Fascinating, no doubt, but of no immediate application. Dr. Stephen Maturin: There is, I think, an opportunity here to serve both our purposes. As I understand it, this is a long, thin island. You need to sail around it to continue your voyage. I could walk across it. I'd be on the other side... Capt. Jack Aubrey: I have known you to spend hours staring into a deserted bird's nest. Dr. Stephen Maturin: I could walk briskly, pausing only to take the most important measurements. Making valuable discoveries that could help advance our knowledge of natural history. Capt. Jack Aubrey: If wind and tide had been against us, I should have said yes. They're not. I'm obliged to say no. Dr. Stephen Maturin: Oh, I see. I see. So, after all this time in your service, I must simply content myself to form part of this belligerent expedition. Hurry past inestimable wonders, bent solely on destruction. I shall say nothing of the corruption of power or its abuse... Capt. Jack Aubrey: You forget yourself, Doctor. Dr. Stephen Maturin: No, Jack. No. You've forgotten yourself. You see, for my part, I look upon a promise as binding. Capt. Jack Aubrey: The promise was conditional. Dr. Stephen Maturin: It never occurred to me... Capt. Jack Aubrey: I command a king's ship, not a private yacht! WE DO NOT HAVE TIME FOR YOUR DAMNED HOBBIES, SIR!
Able Seaman: Is them 'is brains, doctor? Dr. Stephen Maturin: No, that's just dried blood. THOSE are his brains.
Dr. Stephen Maturin: By comparison, the Surprise is a somewhat aged man-o-war. Am I not correct? Capt. Jack Aubrey: Would you call me an aged man-o-war, doctor? The Surprise is not old; no one would call her old. She has a bluff bow, lovely lines. She's a fine seabird: weatherly, stiff and fast... very fast, if she's well handled. No, she's not old; she's in her prime.
Nehemiah Slade, Able Seaman: Never met a dead man that bought me a drink. Joe Plaice, Able Seaman: And I never met a live one that you bought one for, neither.
Dr. Stephen Maturin: Tell me this wasn't on my account. Capt. Jack Aubrey: No, not at all. I just needed to stretch my legs.
Capt. Jack Aubrey: Killick, an extra ration of rum for these men. Joseph Nagle, Carpenter's Mate: Thank you very much, sir. William Warley, Cpt. of Mizzentop: Thank you, sir. Preserved Killick, Captain's Steward: Which I was savin' for Salutin' Day, I was. Capt. Jack Aubrey: We'll drink wine. Preserved Killick, Captain's Steward: Oh, drink wine for Salutin' Day...
Mr. Allen, Master: My God, what can we do? He has us by the hip. Capt. Jack Aubrey: Run like smoke and oakum. Mr. Allen, Master: We'll have to bend every sail. Capt. Jack Aubrey: We'll put up our handkerchiefs if we have to. We must survive this day.
Dr. Stephen Maturin: They're exhausted. These men are exhausted. You've pushed them too hard. Capt. Jack Aubrey: Stephen, I invite you to this cabin as my friend. Not to criticise nor to comment on my command. Dr. Stephen Maturin: Well. Shall I leave you until you're in a more harmonious frame of mind? Capt. Jack Aubrey: What would you have me do, Stephen? Dr. Stephen Maturin: Tip the ship's grog over the side. Capt. Jack Aubrey: Stop their grog? Dr. Stephen Maturin: Nagle was drunk when he insulted Hollom. Did you know that? Capt. Jack Aubrey: Stop two hundred years of privilege and tradition? I'd rather have them three sheets to the wind on occasion than have a mutiny on my hands. Dr. Stephen Maturin: You see, I'm rather understanding of mutinies. Men pressed from their homes, their chosen occupations, confined for months aboard a wooden prison... Capt. Jack Aubrey: I respect your right to disagree with me, but I can only afford one rebel on this ship. Capt. Jack Aubrey: I hate it when you talk of the service in this way. It makes me feel so very low. You think I want to flog Nagle? The man who stood beside me on the gunwale and hacked the ropes that sent his mate to his death? Under orders? Under MY orders? Do you not see? The only things that keep this wooden world together are hard work, discipline... Dr. Stephen Maturin: Jack, the man failed to salute... Capt. Jack Aubrey: For God's sake, Stephen, there's hierarchies even in nature, as you've often said yourself! Dr. Stephen Maturin: There is no disdain in nature, there is no humiliation... Capt. Jack Aubrey: Men must be governed! Often not wisely, I will grant you, but governed nonetheless. Dr. Stephen Maturin: That's the excuse of every tyrant in history, from Nero to Bonaparte. I, for one, am opposed to authority... Capt. Jack Aubrey: Your opposition is not my concern. Dr. Stephen Maturin: -it is the egg of misery and oppression... Capt. Jack Aubrey: You've come to the wrong shop for anarchy, brother.
Dr. Stephen Maturin: I'm sorry, Jack. I'm doing everything I can. I know you were close to his father. Capt. Jack Aubrey: His father would've understood. He knew the life. His mother, however... Dr. Stephen Maturin: Let me take a look at that brow of yours. Capt. Jack Aubrey: What? Capt. Jack Aubrey: Damn, he was good. Just came out of nowhere. Hit us with a full broadside, cut across our tail and took out our rudder. Damn fine gunnery. We only slipped away because of the fog. Quite fortunate, really. He may have had the weather gauge, but we had the weather gods. Dr. Stephen Maturin: I have no idea what precisely it is you're talking about, but he did seem to come off rather well. Capt. Jack Aubrey: Seven weeks sailing, and he happens in darkness on our exact position. Dr. Stephen Maturin: Hm. Well, the French have their spies in England and elsewhere. As do we. Capt. Jack Aubrey: Indeed. If he knew we were looking for him, he could have stood to sea and passed well clear. Dr. Stephen Maturin: Well then, perhaps he was looking for us.
Blakeney: Tie your neck bands on your right upper arm to tell friend from foe. Blakeney: Davies, this arm. Starboard arm. Awkward Davies, Able Seaman: Is that the one you got or the one you don't got? Blakeney: All right, that's enough cheek, Davies.
Faster Doudle, Able Seaman: I can't see any women. Just ducks and lizards. Nehemiah Slade, Able Seaman: What, no women? It ain't natural.
Dr. Stephen Maturin: ...Clearly, something nautical and fascinating just happened; I am at a loss. Capt. Jack Aubrey: We have made our turn northward; we are headed back toward the sun!
Capt. Jack Aubrey: Now to lure this predator in and spring our trap. Dr. Stephen Maturin: Jack... *you're* the predator.
Capt. Jack Aubrey: I'm sorry you had to leave the majority of your collection behind, Stephen. Dr. Stephen Maturin: In actual fact, Mr. Blakeney and I did make one very interesting find. Capt. Jack Aubrey: Is that right? Capt. Jack Aubrey: Let me guess: a stick? Dr. Stephen Maturin: Tell him about it, Mr. Blakeney. Blakeney: It's a rare phasmid, sir. Capt. Jack Aubrey: A phasmid? Blakeney: It's an insect that disguises itself as a stick, to confuse its predators.
