    “- Tom Dodge: Men, at ease. I'd like to introduce you to the newest member of our crew, Lt. Emily Lake. Emily is part of a pilot program to test the feasibility of women serving on submarines. She's going to be our diving officer.
    - Stepanak: Can she do a one-and-a-half inward back in the layout position?
    [laughter]
    - Tom Dodge: All right, look, gentlemen! I know this is an unusual situation. Can't be easy for Lt. Lake here to be thrown into a jungle such as this, and I know it will make things hard on all of us... Let me re-phrase that. It's going to make things difficult on all of us as well. But if we just work together as a team, I'm sure we can handle ourselves... comport ourselves as professionals. That is all.”
    Kelsey Grammer - Tom Dodge
    Bradford Tatum - Stepanak
