Lt. Greenwald:
Well, well, well! The officers of the Caine in happy celebration!

Lt. Maryk:
What are you, Barney, kind of tight?

Lt. Greenwald:
Sure. I got a guilty conscience. I defended you, Steve, because I found the wrong man was on trial. So, I torpedoed Queeg for you. I had to torpedo him. And I feel sick about it.

Lt. Maryk:
Okay, Barney, take it easy.

Lt. Greenwald:
You know something... When I was studying law, and Mr. Keefer here was writing his stories, and you, Willie, were tearing up the playing fields of dear old Princeton, who was standing guard over this fat, dumb, happy country of ours, eh? Not us. Oh, no, we knew you couldn't make any money in the service. So who did the dirty work for us? Queeg did! And a lot of other guys. Tough, sharp guys who didn't crack up like Queeg.

Ensign Keith:
But no matter what, Captain Queeg endangered the ship and the lives of the men.

Lt. Greenwald:
He didn't endanger anybody's life, you did, all of you! You're a fine bunch of officers.
