The Bounty

The Bounty1984



Bligh:
We are still faced with a long, hard voyage. I mean to make good use of every hour of sailing time, and to assist me in this, I am replacing Mr. Fryer with Mr. Christian, who will now act as executive second in command, with the rank of Acting Second Lieutenant...

[Fryer walks away]

Bligh:
Mr. Fryer, come back here.

[shouts after Mr. Fryer, who is continuing to walk away]

Bligh:
Mr. Fryer, sir! Come back here!

[Mr. Fryer returns; Bligh continues, quietly]

Bligh:
I will dismiss when I have done with you, sir. Do you hear me?

John Fryer:
This is an outrage!

Bligh:
Mr. Fryer!

John Fryer:
In all my years at sea...

Bligh:
Your "years at sea"? Good Lord, man! If I'd known your nature, I would not have accepted you as boatswain of a river barge.

John Fryer:
Must I suffer this before the men?

Bligh:
You will suffer my correction whenever you're at fault, sir!

John Fryer:
What fault?

Bligh:
[shouts] God damn your eyes, man! You turned your back on me!

John Fryer:
Well for that, I apologize.

Bligh:
Very well.

John Fryer:
But I protest.

Bligh:
You protest, do you?

John Fryer:
I am Master of the Bounty!

Bligh:
[shouts] And I, sir, am *Commander*! By law! I am the first! Do you understand? God damn your hide! And now you may dismiss, sir!
