- CO CDR Tom Chandler: Darien, I'm not going to the Med. Navy's sending us to the Arctic.
- Darien Chandler: The Arctic? That's crazy.
- CO CDR Tom Chandler: Some cold weather test on a new weapons system. It's all classified. It's happening very fast. We're gonna be at complete radio silence. No e-mails, no calls.
- Ashley Chandler: For how long?
- CO CDR Tom Chandler: Six months, maybe five.
- Ashley Chandler: Figures.
- CO CDR Tom Chandler: It's my last tour for a while. Then I'll be around the house so much you'll be sick of me, I promise.
- CO CDR Tom Chandler: Gator said the wind was coming. It's gotta come, right?
- CMC Jeter: I'm guessing the Navy told you about my car accident.
- CO CDR Tom Chandler: Yeah. Yeah. They did
- CMC Jeter: Well, there's something they don't even know about. It was my fault. Tried to pass a car on a curve. Didn't see the oncoming truck. I killed my wife and my girls. I was in the ICU for 82 days. Seven times I coded, seven times they brought me back. In between, I had plenty of time to think and to wonder why did God leave me here? Why did He spare me? There must be a purpose, some reason. Well, that's what I told myself. That's how I woke up every day and put one foot in front of the other. It was faith that got me through. But these past weeks, that faith has been replaced with certainty. I am here for a reason, as are you, as is everyone aboard this ship. You are here to lead us, and we are here to follow, to execute your vision.
- CO CDR Tom Chandler: I don't have a vision.
- CMC Jeter: You do. When you stuck your hand in that engine fuse, and you turned us away from home, when you got us out of Gitmo, there's a... a voice inside you. Maybe it's your highest self, maybe it's the voice of God. I don't know, but... it's a voice of... hope. You've listened to it so far. All you have to do is keep listening. Our journey does not end here.
- XO Mike Slattery: You ever hear of keelhauling?
- Quincy: Can't say that I have. No.
- XO Mike Slattery: Really? Back in the mid-1800s, if a sea captain encountered a particularly problematic sailor he'd have him bound with rope, thrown over the side of the ship dragged underneath the hull. Poor bastard would bounce and scrape along the keel, barnacles and such. But when he'd come up on the other side, if he wasn't drowned or decapitated he tended to be a lot more cooperative. Keelhauling. Off the top of my head, I can think of about 200 sailors on board this ship who would like to try that out on you.
- Quincy: Captain Chandler would never allow such a thing.
- XO Mike Slattery: Hmm. Maybe. Maybe not. I never found torture that effective in my line of work. I told you I was a cop, right?
- Quincy: You did, yes.
- XO Mike Slattery: Yeah.See, I always found that if you just laid out the facts for a guy treated him with respect, give him a chance to redeem himself, earn something back he'd make the right choice.
- Quincy: You can't force me back into the lab. I won't do it.
- XO Mike Slattery: Well, suit yourself. Remember we got a hard and fast rule on this ship: Anything that doesn't serve a purpose is gone. Ain't no fat on the bone here.
- Lt. Andy Chung: It's going to take a week, maybe 10 days at all-stop to repair the engine damage, sir.
- CO CDR Tom Chandler: A week?
- Lt. Andy Chung: We can run one of the turbines at manual... the seawater system's fried. We can't cool the engines.
- CO CDR Tom Chandler: How long can we run without overheating?
- CO CDR Tom Chandler: Maybe an hour.
- Lt. Andy Chung: Another five to let them cool down. I'll have to wash down the engines before we can try.
- CO CDR Tom Chandler: What's the issue? The RO systems?
- Lt. Andy Chung: The circuit breakers in the load centers. They're burnt out. We can't make fresh drinking water.
- CO CDR Tom Chandler: How long to fix that?
- Lt. Andy Chung: Also a week, sir. That's the real problem. When we were in Gitmo... we weren't filtering water from the harbor... because we didn't know if it was contaminated by the virus.
- CO CDR Tom Chandler: So we're down to, what, 3000 gallons of fresh water? .
- Lt. Andy Chung: Just about, sir
- Andrea Garnett: Did you reset the electronic governor controls?
- Lt. Andy Chung: Cycled them three times. They're wiped.
- Andrea Garnett: Did you try to rig casualty power cables from main one?
- Lt. Andy Chung: There's no way. The main cable riser's melted.
- Andrea Garnett: Mr. Chung... You qualified EOOW faster than anyone I've ever seen. And you could rebuild most of this power plant with your eyes closed. You're going to handle this.
- Quincy: I'm guessing the gene sequencing showed a high degree of variation. You're having trouble distinguishing what's causing the enhanced pathogenesis... and what's just background noise.
- Dr. Rachel Scott: Right you are, as usual.
- Quincy: Let's get to it. Shall we?
