REPORTER [ON TV]: With winds of up to 180 kilometers an hour,

and storm tides threatening coastal communities--

A state of emergency?

Yes, sir.

I'll bring the ship to one hour's notice for sea.

As soon as we're ready.

Thanks, sir.

Tell me we're not steaming into this?

Two kids have gone missing right

in the middle of the cyclone.

So yeah, we're riding it's tail.

Spread the word, Nav.

And Nav?

Is the XO on board?

She had shore leave. I'll give her a call.

I'll do it.

I'll bring her up to speed.

REPORTER [ON TV]: Services are working around the clock,

and are warning against any attempt

to cross flooded roads and waterways.

We should do it on this surprise visit.

Maybe dinner in town?

That'd be nice.

We go some are expensive, show off

your very impressive civvies.

[laughs] Thank you.

It'd be nice to have a life outside the uniform

occasionally.

No heavily armed chaperones?

You know?

They wanted to come, but I left them at home.

[phone rings]

Anyone know where XO went?

I'm through to voice mail.

Sorry, sir.

She didn't tell me.

X, Captain speaking.

We're down to one hour's notice for sea,

and I don't know where you are.

[phone beeps]

Mmm.

I'm sorry.

I'm on call.

OK.

OK, I need a drink.

[laughs]

You sure I can't get you something?

Yeah, some of that water would be great.

That's warm.

I'll go below and get you something cold.

[indistinct music on radio]

This is the best I could do.

Oh, thanks.

Am I keeping you from your work?

Your crew are due back, and--

No, no.

The boys are all in town for the night.

Oh, not quite.

I just saw someone on the deck.

My engineer got a mate rattling

around down there somewhere.

I'm sure I've seen him somewhere.

Really?

Yeah.

It'll come to me.

[phone rings]

Kate, here.

Sir!

We should be able to make it by morning, even

in these conditions.

First light will do us fine, Nav.

X?

Cyclone's running ashore here.

Was your phone off the hook?

Oh, yeah.

Sorry about that.

Sorry if I interrupted something.

Where are we heading?

There's a little town, Red Cliff.

They're holding up, but there's a disaster area declared

for 300 klicks around them.

Roads are out.

Two boys are missing, both under 12.

Is anything flying?

It's up to us.

Help find the boys.

Do whatever else needs doing.

Right.

Oh, the Pacific Mariner, do we still

have the tape of the boarding?

It'll be in the pile of spares.

Federal police want it.

Did they say why?

No, but I want to take a look at it first.

They can have it when we get back.

OK.

[indistinct music on radio]

Chefo, are we fully victualed?

Yeah, 10 days if we need it ma'am.

Oh, have either of you seen boarding tape 607?

It's not in the locker.

Uh, 607?

Mm, can't say I have.

Yeah, it's in the junior sailors' mess.

On the shelf.

Oh!

Roberta?

Courier dropped this off.

Thanks.

And it's Robert!

STEVE: Whatever.

Did we miss a birthday, mate.

No, it's no my birthday. Don't worry about it.

Come on, man. Open it up.

Give us a look.

There's no secrets below deck, RO.

Sure there are.

Here's one for a start.

Found the tape, Chefo.

The boss will be happy.

[theme music]

KATE [ON TAPE]: Are you missing any containers?

MAN [ON TAPE]: We unloaded these two yesterday.

KATE [ON TAPE]: And what about this one?

MAN [ON TAPE]: You the commander of the ship?

KATE [ON TAPE]: Executive officer.

[interposing voices on tape]

Chefo, for your titilation, the lady

that puts the "O" in "XO."

That's right, I give you the X-rated, "It's the X!"

Yeah!

[cheering and applause]

This is the tape you found me from the Pacific

Mariner boarding?

Hmm.

Is that Spider?

Whoo!

[laughter]

Chefo!

You big spunk!

I'm spewing you're engaged, because you're

a very, very abled seaman!

[cheering]

CHEFO: Thanks for noticing, X!

SPIDER: If I wasn't such an ice queen, who

only cares about her career, I reckon

I might have babies with you.

Chefo's engagement drinks.

Several engagement drinks.

You want to take this further.

[interposing voices]

Cyclone Kate, it's sea state eight!

[cheering]

Chefo, you big spunk!

I'm spewing you're engaged, because you're

a very, very abled seaman!

It's not really on, is it Seaman Webb.

No, sir, no, of course, it isn't.

It isn't.

Joke's one thing.

Disrespect is another.

We're a small ship and a big family.

This sort of thing doesn't make it any easier,

Sir, sorry butt in, but perhaps Spider and I

can sort this out between us?

Spider-- do you like women Spider?

Yeah.

I really like women, ma'am.

Hey, there's Carl.

Ma'am, Carl Davies, the, um--

you know, that's Sam Murray's mate.

The guys-- the fishermen I met on Bright Island.

Yeah, he's-- he's right.

That's the guy I saw today.

Well, he was on the Pacific Mariner today.

That's where I saw him.

You were on the Pacific Mariner?

Yes, sir.

OK, Spider.

The XO will speak to you later.

- Sir, uh, what about-- - Dismissed.

Yeah.

Carl Davies is a suspect in a murder.

That will explain why the feds want to look at the tape.

Did you speak to him?

No, but he saw me.

Maybe Rick Gallagher's trying to hide him.

Well, maybe Rick doesn't know the full story.

I better radio the feds.

I want to pick him up.

Yeah, I think you missed a spot there, Spide.

That toothbrush's leaving a streak in your finish.

Best use a cotton bud, Spide.

Hmm, probably find one of those in the X's handbag.

Or in your own handbag.

Give it a rest, all right?

Why did you to use that tape anyway?

You know, the XO's got no sense of humor.

Less chat, eh?

I want the gun bay hucked out and re-stowed this forenoon.

And, a muster of all the gear in both boats,

for currency and serviceability.

Thank you.

It's all on Spider's list, X.

Excuse me, ma'am.

Are we square then?

Not even close.

We passed the Carl Davies information

onto the federal police.

FLYNN [ON PHONE]: Is that why they wanted the boarding time

of the Pacific Mariner, sir?

As far as I can tell, they wanted

to talk to Davies in connection with the murder

of his fishing partner.

If I were the feds, I'd be asking him what he's

got to do with Rick Gallagher.

Well, unfortunately, they can't.

They missed him?

COMMANDER [ON PHONE]: Well, Pacific Mariner sailed about

five minutes after Hammersley.

The passage route they sent MRCC turned out to be a furphy.

RO: Weather report update, sir.

The cyclone crossed the coast near Redcliff during the night.

It's been downgraded to a tropical low,

and it's moving inland away from the coast, out.

Slow ahead, both engines, steer 285.

Slow ahead, both engines, steer 285,

Swain, hypothetically speaking, if I've accidentally

taped over a boarding video, am I allowed

to blackout that accident?

Hypothetically speaking, are you

admitting the tape as evidence?

Probably.

Then, no, you can't touch it.

It's part of the evidence chain.

Really bad wig and all.

[laughter]

The whole ship knows?

Privacy.

Not one of the Navy's strong points.

Sir, coming up to Redcliff now.

Special sea duty men and cable party close up.

Assume damage control state, three conditions Yankee.

RO: NAVCOM confirm that Australian Army elements are

currently operating in our area for the relief effort,

and we've got a Sea King helo off HMS Manoora.

Navy's always the last to arrive.

Mark Flynn, captain of Hammersley.

Captain Craig Bolt, combat engineer.

Team and I were a couple of clicks down the coast

cleaning up a bit of ordnance washed ashore in the cyclone.

Heard the Navy was on its way, so--

Nikki Caetano?

All the Beaches in the world!

Craig?

What are you doing here?

Oh, Just the usual hero stuff.

It's been a while.

Yeah, ADFA.

Thank God you're here!

My boy Connor, he's one of the two missing.

Gone since yesterday.

We know about the boys, ma'am.

The dinghy is gone.

We think they might have taken it

to the island to go fishing or something,

but it's-- it's miles out.

- OK, ma'am. - No, no.

It's not OK.

Connor's a diabetic.

He could die without his medication.

All right we'll split the effort.

I'll take Hammersley and a small team, start a sweep.

Sir, do you want me to run things here?

Good, X. Let's get some repairs happening.

Chefo? - Sir?

You can start a community kitchen.

Yes, sir.

It's, uh, Connor's diabetes medicine.

He was due for a shot this morning.

I'd like to go with you.

Mrs. Bullen, this is my executive officer,

Lieutenant Kate McGregor.

She really needs your help here.

But Connor needs me more.

I have a medical officer on board Mrs. Bullen,

and I'll certainly contact Lieutenant McGregor

as soon as we have any news.

Thank you.

ET, Nav, let's move.

Sir.

I'll be with you in a moment, Mrs. Bullen.

Buffer, we need to organize a repair party.

You can start with Spider.

Aye, ma'am.

I'll leave you guys to clean up.

Yeah.

Thanks, mate.

I've established VHF comms with the X in town, sir.

Roger.

ETA to the island, Nav?

Half an hour.

Uh, sir, I've got the town's shortwave in the COMCEN.

Got fried in the storm.

See what you can do with it today.

Do you think the boys had sense to wear life jackets?

Stupid kids.

Who goes fishing in a cyclone, anyway?

Oh, it's just the next big adventure, Swain.

RO: They got parents.

What were they doing?

Connor said he was going to Tim's and Tim

said he was going to Connor's.

Something in the water, boss.

Red 2-0, near.

Is that the kids' dinghy?

Mounting for an outboard there?

Yeah, but she's lost it.

There's nothing underneath.

Make a note of the dinghy's position.

Use the datum to plot a new search zone.

I can allow for tides and currents,

but a dinghy could have blown anywhere in a cyclone.

Yeah, but bodies won't.

We'll check the island first.

HELO PILOT: Hammersley, is a Shark 22.

We've an aerial recce of the island,

but the dense scrub cover doesn't allow us much of a look

at the interior, over.

FLYNN: Roger Shark 2-2, I'm preparing

to send a party ashore.

Take them in Nav.

Split into two parties, one around the shore,

one lot inland.

Swain and I will do a local sweep with the ship

and stay in radio range.

Oh, how are you, mate.

I was, um--

I was going ashore.

I was just looking for some battery packs--

You'll never find it in there.

Mate, if that's a blow-up friend, she's one heavy lady.

Just clear out!

Right.

Well, listen, mate, if you need a hand with that radio,

I've got a box of bits you can go through.

I'm happy to stay out of your bits, thanks ET.

The wind was, like, roaring!

It's was like a huge plane!

The windows blew in, and bits of the roof came off!

Yeah, we'll have to fix that later, eh?

I'm Oscar.

A whole roof fell in down the road.

Come on, dude.

Ms. Deb's doing all the work.

Help her out?

OK, come on.

Let's pick up the pictures, eh?

Oh, they're still wet.

Oh, that's OK.

They'll dry on the wall.

Like hanging out the washing, eh?

Yeah.

Thanks.

I reckon Tim is OK.

Connor too, yeah?

Hey, mate, why don't you help Buffer there.

Hold his ladder.

Bit of an old bloke.

Bit unsteady.

You'll keep, Spider.

Spider?

Cool name.

Seaman Webb, found another job for you.

Yes, ma'am,

OK, roger that.

[insects buzzing]

We'll get some more supplies up here soon then.

Oh, mate!

That is nasty!

You'll want to wash your hands after that, Spide.

[laughs] Have you heard anything?

They've found the dinghy upturned,

but I'm going to keep a lid on that.

How's the tent kitchen?

Feeding all comers right now.

Just soup.

But there's been some pilfering going on,

so if you see any kids going through a carton

of chocolate biscuits, feel free to get up them.

What, a whole Carton?

Spider?

Oh!

This will need to be cleaned up and bolted back together.

Maybe the way around.

Is this going to go on forever, ma'am?

It may.

Why do you hate Spider?

Because he has been a very naughty boy.

Tim?

Connor!

Connor!

Hey, maybe this isn't the fishing side of the island.

There's no tracks around.

There's no rubbish.

Where would you go?

Think like a little boy again.

I never stopped.

Tim!

Connor!

Connor!

Nav!

Nav.

Come on, mate.

We're here now.

That's all right.

Can say your name?

This is November 2, we've got one of the boys down.

To me, please, 2-K, south-southwest

of the landing spot. - It's all right.

Just lay your head back.

That's it. I got you.

I got you.

All right.

Now, take hold of my hand.

Squeeze my hand.

That's the way.

Squeeze it hard.

Good boy.

All right, we're going to get you out of here, bud.

Lift with your knees, OK?

On the count of three.

One, two, three!

Perfect.

My dad had books like that, for kicking stuff.

Oh, yeah.

Well, send him over.

We could use the help.

He's dead.

Don't remember him much.

I remember the boots though.

Well, this is my first navy cap.

You look after it, OK?

I haven't got anything to give you.

That's all right.

I can show you something.

It's a secret.

Go ahead.

Lead the way.

Watch out for the X though.

It's a bit of a hike.

Not far now.

What are these?

Windchimes?

Sort of a doorbell.

You can't tell anyone.

Yeah, all right.

Ha, ha!

Whoa!

That's pretty amazing, Os.

So you did this yourself this morning after the storm?

Faster than you and that dunny.

Hang on, so you were building this

while everyone was searching for the other two boys?

Mate, bit of an architect!

I'd say this is the best cubby I've ever seen.

Don't tell anyone.

I'll really get it.

Right.

Drink?

Yeah, all right.

I got supplies.

You got a cold one?

The insulin will kick in soon.

The orange juice will help till then.

My mouth is tingly.

Oh, that's normal, mate.

He's a bit hypoglycemic, that's all.

Hey, Connor.

My name's Mike.

I'm the captain of this ship.

Can you tell me where your friend is?

Is he still on the island?

Well, your friend, Tim.

The one you went fishing with, remember?

Tim?

Well, you didn't come all this way on your own, did you?

It was Tim's idea.

I was just following him.

And where is Tim now?

What happened to him.

He took off when I couldn't walk any further.

He just left me for dead.

Right.

You know, I think we'll be OK.

You and ET better get back to the island,

continue the search for the other boy.

Right away, boss.

Stay in radio contact.

Yes, sir.

Tim!

So this Craig Bolt guy, looks like you two are friends.

Friends, yeah.

You could say that.

So what?

You went out?

Went out with a lot of people, ET.

More than once?

I knew Craig at ADFA.

Well, you knew him.

Certainly doesn't sound like much.

Well, then there you go.

Nice girls don't say more than that.

I'm going to climb this tree.

See if I can get a bit of vantage.

You really haven't stopped thinking like a little boy.

[interposing voices]

Spider, I've just been up at the school toilet block,

and it is still in 75 pieces.

I'm sorry, ma'am.

I'm on it right now.

What were you doing?

Well, Oscar's was just showing me this turtle that

was on its back, so we flipped it over

and stuck it back in the water.

Get your own!

I win!

How's he doing?

Really good.

Oh, his levels are back to normal.

You know, you gave your mom I'm a bit of a scare there,

buddy.

We've radioed down and told her you're OK.

I'm going to cop it.

Oh, I reckon she sounded more relieved than angry.

You've got to tell her I didn't

take the dinghy out alone.

You know, Connor, you seem more upset

about your mom being angry than you

do about your missing friend.

You don't know my mom.

She can be real scary when she gets mad.

I see.

You know what I think is the bravest thing of all

though, Connor?

Telling the truth, especially when you frightened

you're going to get in trouble.

Yeah.

Tim wasn't in the dinghy with you, was he?

And he was never on the island with you?

OK.

Where did you last see Tim?

At the beach at Redcliff, when he dared

me to take the dinghy out.

OK.

Thanks, Connor.

NAV: Tim!

See anything?

Trees and more trees.

Oh, I can see the boat.

Whoa!

ET!

ET!

Are you OK?

Say something!

Open your eyes!

Oh, please Josh!

Please!

Oh, say something--

[laughs] Josh?

Only my Nana calls me Josh.

Oh!

Whoa, whoa!

I almost broke my back.

[laughter]

FLYNN: November 2, this is Charlie 2, over.

Go ahead, Charlie 2.

FLYNN: Return to my location immediately.

The other boy isn't on the island.

Are you sure about that, sir?

FLYNN: Yes, I am sure about that, Nav.

Charlie 2 out.

[laughter]

Hey, Os, bring us over the hammer, mate.

Chefo, what are you doing?

What about the kitchen? - All done.

Lunch is good to go, ma'am.

Thought I'd give Spider a hand.

Well, you can forget about that for now.

The COs just called.

Tim isn't on the island, so we need to set up search.

Right-o.

Oh, I found your biscuit thief by the way.

Ah!

Hey, I told you I didn't take them.

I found them. - Uh-huh.

It just fell off the back of the truck, huh?

He couldn't have nicked them.

He's been with me the whole morning.

Yeah, well, I also lost two meat pies and two cans of cola.

So I guess you'd need an invisible friend, huh?

Two meat pies?

Os, you had help building that cubby, didn't you?

You promised.

Sorry, mate, I have to tell.

OK?

No way!

- Ma'am, give me half hour, OK? - What for?

Spider?

I'll have some news in half an hour.

- What about? - Ma'am, just half an hour.

OK, you've got half an hour, and if you're not back,

I know of another toilet not far from here.

Yeah.

It's not a doorbell, is it?

Let's go quietly from here.

Oh, it's not fair!

Tim!

You're in a lot of trouble, mate.

You promised!

You dobbed!

I didn't!

Look, none of that matters now. All right?

Everyone's freaked out because you're missing.

Come on, out.

Out!

And what sort of game are you guys playing?

Come on, guys.

What's going on?

And what's with the cubby?

Why is it here?

FLYNN: Check-in flights are back on RO.

Try to get a Medevac on standby.

We're coming up to Redcliff now.

OK, roger that, sir.

Connor!

There she is.

Oh!

Thank you!

Thank you!

Mom!

Darling, you had me so worried.

What were you thinking?

Any news, X?

I've organized three search parties,

two to head out on the beaches, and one to push inland.

OK, I've got RO organizing a Medevac flight just in case.

See if you can--

- Sir? - Tim!

X?

Mum?

Tim!

Well done, Spider.

How did you manage this?

Oh, well, Oscar pretty much tipped me off, eh?

Spider why don't you tell us what you knew

before racing off like that?

Oh, well, it happened really fast, ma'am.

But there's something I think you should see now.

They filled this with storm junk,

not wanting to come home after Conner was lost.

So they come home and they heard he was back.

Well, I don't think coming back was an option, ma'am.

See, they put this here for a reason.

They were trying to protect a new toy.

Oh, great!

I was just talking to Lieutenant Smith

in Commander Marshal's office.

- Yes, place. - Hey, Spider?

Can we get those people away?

Push them right back.

Aye, ma'am.

All right, everyone gather round.

OK, everyone up the hill please!

50-meter perimeter buffer, typed and sign-posted.

Aye, ma'am.

Now I want a sentry over there.

That can be you, Chefo. - Ma'am.

ET, contact RO and tell him to spread the word around town--

keep away.

Ma'am.

It rolled up the beach in the cyclone.

It must be pretty stable.

It's had kids climbing all over it.

So it won't go off on a sneeze.

If I thought it might have, I would've put

up a half-a-kilometer zone around it.

All personnel cleared from this area.

It's World War II vintage.

Must have been working its way down the coast

with the current.

Some kids have found it.

Been trying to hide it from everyone.

Look, we really don't need this, sir.

Every Navy resource has been deployed

chasing down this cyclone.

It's picking up again in the Timor sea.

FLYNN [ON PHONE]: I understand all that.

So how about I tell you that the mine

is above the high watermark.

Oh, I like that.

Makes it an Army problem.

FLYNN [ON PHONE]: Precisely.

I've taking the initiative.

Just need someone to authorize it.

Here comes Captain Hero to save the day.

Someone need a combat engineer around here?

We do.

Thanks for coming, Craig.

Appreciate it.

Not a problem.

Any time I can help out the Navy with anything.

You're just the tool for the job.

So come on, let's take care this little firecracker.

Oh, well, let's see what he has to say.

Hopefully, not much, sir.

We like to milk these things out, get the access cover off,

apply steady heat to the explosive compound,

then turn it into goo, which runs out for disposal.

No explosion?

That's right.

The casing stays intact, and the kids get a nice souvenir

for their playground.

Excellent!

Yeah, it'd be good, wouldn't it?

But we can't do it.

The access is rusted tight.

I'm going to have to blow it up.

Cool!

The sooner the better.

OK.

Thanks, Craig.

OK, X?

Sir?

Liaise with the community.

Let them know what's going on.

We should try and keep all the kids

together until this is over.

Feel free to use the school if you like.

Thank you, ma'am.

X, request permission to help Captain Bolt, please.

I'm afraid not, Spider.

You're on babysitting duty.

I want every kid kept at the school

and you keep both your eyes on them.

Grab yourself a radio, then you can listen in, Spider.

So what do you reckon about this Craig bolt, guy?

I know ET.

Nav seems to like him.

Yeah, well.

They had a history, apparently.

Must be the gunpowder.

It's a turn on.

Buff?

Boss wants you to start rounding up the crew, moving them clear.

Aye, Nav.

Now, why is it that guys who like blowing things up always

wear really cool sunnies?

What guy doesn't like blowing things up?

I don't.

Thought you might have known that by now.

You're on the Hammersley, right?

Oh, yeah. Yeah.

I'm close to your base.

Think of the possibilities.

Left, right, left!

Left, right, left, right, left!

I shouldn't have told you.

Then we'd still have the cubby and the bomb.

Yeah, but I think you knew what you were doing telling me,

didn't you?

Someone as smart as you know something like that's

pretty dangerous.

Well, crocodiles are dangerous.

Yeah, I bet you don't keep a croc in your backyard, do you?

Hey, guys, come on.

Come back into the group.

This arm like this.

Oscar?

Keep it straight.

Oscar!

Yeah, I was just talking to him.

Os? Has anyone's seen Oscar?

No.

No.

No.

Oscar!

Oscar!

Oscar?

X-ray 2 to this is Echo 1.

Are we clear for detonation, over?

This is X-ray 2, we're all clear.

Carry on.

All stations, this is Echo 1.

Turn off all radios until detonation.

This is Echo 1, out.

X!

Oscar's missing!

What do you mean he's missing, Spider?

One minute he was there and the next he's not.

Just don't let him blow it up.

Echo 1, this is X-ray 2.

Do not detonate!

I say again, do not detonate!

We have a missing child!

Craig, are you reading me?

Craig!

Craig, don't detonate!

Stop!

Look out!

Oscar, Stop!

Look out!

Spider, no!

Get down!

Down!

[explosion]

Spider!

Spider, can you hear me?

Can you hear me?

Spider?

Oscar?

Oscar can you hear me?

[interposing voices]

You keep still.

That's it.

Stay still.

Try and stay still.

Sorry, I'm sorry!

I got the all clear.

What happened to final visual safety checks?

I did them!

Just take it easy, Spider.

- I'm all right, ma'am. - No, you're not.

You're bleeding. Are they burns?

Yeah, but he's probably still in shock.

Chefo keep an eye on the boy.

What the bloody hell did you think you were doing?

You could have died there! - Hey!

You!

You pull your head in!

Now is not the time.

Captain Bolt, a word?

Yes, sir.

I'm sorry.

Forgot this.

I thought I had time.

You're all right, mate.

There's no harm done.

Thanks to you, Spider.

Ma'am, does this make us square now?

Not quite, Spider.

Not quite.

The XO has given me her report of the incident.

All of it was a bit of a mess.

Yes, sir.

She gave you a few kids to muster up,

and you let one get away.

And what's more, Seaman Webb, you

blatantly disobeyed her direct order to stop on the beach.

And you ran straight into danger to save the boy.

You didn't hesitate, which is what we were there to do.

I gave you a hard time all day, Spider,

and then I left you alone with a bunch of bored kids

without any support.

The whole thing is more my fault than anyone else's.

So it's back to normal sea watches, and I'm putting you up

for a commendation.

That should make us square.

Yeah, sure.

Ma'am.

Thank you.

Got to call my mom.

Hey! What's going on with the emails?

They've all been rigged.

And not by us.

Well, let me see.

Um, no secrets below deck.

Who was it that said that?

Mate, that is not the same thing.

No, it's exactly the same.

Listen, we live in each other's laps.

You've got to be able to claim a bit of personal space,

otherwise you go mad.

And the hilarious gag with the parcels

was an invasion of my personal space.

But you went through our stuff.

No, I didn't.

I marked them as read.

Master the technology, boys.

Updated weather report from RO.

Mmm.

So you're going to have Spider paint salt on his wounds

tomorrow.

I am bit of an ice queen, aren't I?

No, you're not, sir.

Yeah, I am.

Craig Bolt?

Mmm.

You two catching up?

Um-- men.

Mess with your heads too much.

Oh, yeah.

I'm going to steal some of Chefo's chokie.

Oh, can you grab me some.

Oh, you're not Little Miss Perfect after all.

Try telling that to the crew.

Did I shock, Spider?

Was I too nice?

Well, I think being blown up by a mine

might have rattled him just a little bit more.

I've been giving him hell, and he's just a kid really.

No, he had it coming.

He's one of the good guys, but he still has a lot to learn.

Mmm.

X, your reaction to the video, it

seemed a little oversensitive.

I know they were just kidding around.

Yeah, they were.

But it threw me because I did wonder if that's

what they really think of me.

No, it's not personal, OK?

They were just having a good time.

They consider an officer, any officer, fair game.

I'm just not used to this level of familiarity.

Much more anonymous on big ships.

Yeah, that's true.

On patrol boats, we're in each other's pockets.

We get to know each other pretty well.

So it's about finding a balance?

That's right, and it's up to you to set the tone.

As an officer, you should maintain a certain distance

from your subordinates, but they should respect you

without becoming too familiar.

I see.

That's something that you manage very effectively.

Of course.

That's why I'm the boss.
