Every time I finish a shift With captain hochrader,

There I am With this giant pad Of steel wool,

Standing In front of a wall With a spot on it.

And there'’s the old Captain hook behind me,

And he'’s saying to me In that low, slow voice You might hear in a dream,

"Aye, kelly! Rub! Rub, kelly! Rub, kelly!"

You better talk soft '’cause he's gonna Hear you.

I don'’t care If he hears me.

It'’s about time He knows how I Feel about him.

And then, There'’s this. He goes,

"I know you boys Don'’t appreciate What I'’m doing here,

But it'’ll make Better men out of you."

Come on, roy. What do... Hey!

Roy, no! Roy!

They have to work With him every shift.

Yeah, you mean Work forhim.

You know, I don'’t mind The captain or anybody else Telling me what to do

If there'’s Some point to it,

By some guy making us Polish a door 10 times

Except to hate doing it.

We couldn'’t get 10 guys Together in the same party With hochrader,

Even if it isfree.

Oh, come on. He isn'’t that bad.

He'’s worse! I mean, You just can'’t imagine

Till you'’re working And have him looking Over your shoulder.

Yeah, then he comes And clamps that claw Of his into your back

And says, "Well, it doesn'’t Look like you'’re working Hard enough, desoto."

You know, that sounds like A nursing supervisor I once had.

Vera inglethorpe.

Things got a little hectic Downstairs tonight.

I always thought doctors Had a real soft life.

You did, huh? Whatever Gave you that idea?

I don'’t know. I guess When you'’re pushing brooms And washing dishes,

Everyone else'’s life Looks soft to you.

Well, maybe this stay In the hospital will Teach you something.

[groans]

Are you still having A lot of pain?

No, it mostly hurts When I take a deep breath.

[chuckles] Or when I laugh.

That'’s because You'’re putting pressure Against those broken ribs.

I know. Makes me feel dumb To be scared of breathing.

[groaning]

Okay, hang in there, huh?

Hey, doc, Don'’t give me anything, No matter what.

Terry, I can'’t give you Any medication

You don'’t want to take.

And I wouldn'’t give it to you Even if it wasn'’t the law.

[exhales]

Better?

Once, when I was up north, I fell off this truck And broke my hand.

I couldn'’t shoot My own stuff,

So this friend of mine, He did it for me.

I thought he was The greatest guy In the world.

It'’s funny the way You change your mind About things.

Look, you take it easy, huh? Try and get some rest.

I'’ll look in on you In the morning.

We were working Around here...

Cap! Roy!

Yeah. She said It'’s up to me.

- what you gonna do? - I don'’t know. What about you?

[exhales] I don'’t know. I'’m kind of leaning toward it.

- uh-huh? - the way I figure it...

If we threw A party for hochrader,

Nobody'’d show up.

This way, If we have a party,

Hochrader will Think it'’s for him,

And all the guys'’ll Think it'’s for them.

And everybody benefits.

Cap, you don'’t seem To be too happy About that.

You know, the man Has put in 26 years.

I think he deserves A little bit of Consideration.

It'’s not easy being A captain, you know.

You never really know What your men think of you,

And what they'’re saying When you'’re not around.

[chuckling] Oh, cap...

No, wait, wait, look,

If you guys go along With this party,

How do I know you won'’t plot

Something like that For me someday?

Oh, cap, There'’s a big difference

Between you and hochrader.

A world Of difference.

Johnny: you don'’t have Anything to worry from us.
