I'm telling you, she was hotter than Dorothy Lamour.
- Really? - Yeah, I could tell she was interested,
but she was classy, you know?
The type of girl that wants you to take her to a country club dance.
Yeah? Like you've ever seen the inside of a country club? Hey!
Like I'd even want to, all right?
Anyway, I can see I'm not getting anywhere with her,
so what I do is, I use my secret weapon.
I tell her about the S-26. Does the trick right away.
Don't be talking about that while we're underway.
Why? What happened with the S-26? Yeah, what happened?
You guys don't know? No. No.
She was running a test dive down off Norfolk.
Shaft seal failed.
She sunk to 400 feet.
Know how much water pressure there is that deep?
Mazzola, you will be the first one eating powdered eggs on this cruise.
Keep it up, you hear?
Come in.
This is our position, Captain. We're still bucking some pretty heavy seas.
I estimate us to be about three hours behind schedule.
I told Mr. Emmett to run at flank speed and hold off a trim dive...
until we make up the lost time. That's fine, Lieutenant.
You're a first-rate X.O., Andy.
A damn good submariner.
I know the men like you.
I'd give my life for any one of them, sir.
I know you would. I'm not questioning your bravery.
The question is: What about their lives?
You and Mr. Emmett are good friends.
You went to the Academy together.
Would you be willing to sacrifice his life?
Or what about some of the younger enlisted men?
You know, a lot of those guys look up to you like a big brother.
You willing to lay their lives on the line?
You see? You hesitate.
But as a captain, you can't.
You have to act.
If you don't, you put the entire crew at risk.
Now that's the job. It's not a science.
You have to be able to make hard decisions, based on imperfect information.
Asking men to carry out orders that may result in their deaths.
And if you're wrong, you suffer the consequences.
If you're not prepared to make those decisions...
without pause, without reflection,
then you've got no business being a submarine captain.
Tell Mr. Hirsch I'd like a word with him, would you?
Aye, sir.
More soup, Captain? Thank you.
I wish I was going with you, gentlemen.
I feel the same way you do, Carson.
Gentlemen, I'd like to propose a toast.
To the officers and crew of the S-33...
and our distinguished guests, Mr. Hirsch and Mr. Coonan.
- Success, gentlemen! - Success. - Success.
Captain Dahlgren, sir? What is it, Wentz?
Chief says we've picked up a radar contact at 0-7-0.
Very well. Mr. Larson?
Signal lamp off the starboard bow!
I see it.
Pass the word along: Submarine sighted off the starboard bow.
Stand by to man battle stations. Aye, sir.
All right, here we go. One last time.
Lieutenant Tyler's raft gets from the conning tower aft. My raft gets the gun crew.
And no one... no one... shoots till I shoot first.
You read me? Yes, sir.
Outstanding. Lock and load.
It'll be all right, son.
Captain, I estimate the German resupply sub has a 14-knot speed of advance.
My latest plot puts them at 12 hours away, sir. Very well, Mr. Larson.
Captain, the boarding party's ready, sir. Await your go-ahead.
Put her low in the water. I wanna give that U-boat as little silhouette as we can.
Sir? Prepare to disembark the boarding party.
Aye, Captain.
If this thing goes south,
I will blow that Nazi boat right out of the water.
Understood, sir. Very well.
All set, Captain.
Now you listen to me.
You get them their damn trophy and get the hell outta there.
- Aye, sir. - The boys are gonna be fine.
I know they will, sir.
Good luck, Andy.
Godspeed, Skipper.
Easy, Mr. Hirsch. We're almost there.
We'll bushwhack 'em real good.
All right, we got 12 men topside, three on the bridge,
four on the foredeck, five aft.
Now remember: Both rafts need to be tied up...
before we move.
Jesus H. Christ. They got machine guns.
Steady, gentlemen.
Wait for the signal.
Mr. Hirsch.
- Hello the boat, you asshole. - Shut up.
Goddamn you, Hirsch, say something.
Let's go! Board this thing! Get out of the rafts!
Conning tower! Move, move!
Clear the conning tower now!
Another one there!
- Griggs is hit! - Get him off!
Move, move! Trigger, on the back!
Griggs! Griggs!
We gotta get inside! Griggs!
Chief, Tank, come down now!
Ready?
Quick, open it! Fire!
Tyler, let's go! Inside!
Cover your men! Go, go!
Don't let 'em close it. Don't let 'em close it!
Two, three, four, five. Shut it.
Let's go. Go! Get down! Go!
Go, go, go, go, go, go, go!
Get off him, get off him! Don't move, don't move! Get back, get back!
Just drop it! Drop it!
Get 'em outta here! Get 'em outta here!
Did they hit you? I'm okay, sir.
Stern team, go! Bow team, go!
I'm outta clips, sir. You go ahead.
- Rabbit! - All right, get 'em outta here.
Get 'em outta here! Let's go! Get down! Down, down, down, down! Get down!
All right, who's the captain? Huh? Who's the captain?
Kapitan? How about you, ugly? You the captain, huh?
Trigger, if anybody moves, you shoot 'em right here in the forehead, understand?
Yes, sir! All right.
Hirsch, we got it.
Get down, down!
- Down there! - Down, down!
Rabbit, check the bilge for a scuttling charge. Give me your weapon!
Move, sailor, move! Aye, sir!
Goddamn it, stay there.
- Hirsch, I think we got the code books! - That ink's running. Dry it.
It's water soluble. Yeah, use the blankets, use the blankets.
Nothing but pipes and valves, Mr. Emmett.
Bow compartment secure.
Bunch of Marys.
How you doing? You're number ten. There you go.
You having a good night? Uh-huh.
Ain't gonna be none too happy you lost his boat.
Lucky number eleven, let's go!
It's your first time looking at a black man, ain't it?
Get used to it.
Let's go! Get over here!
All right, hurry it up. It's gonna be sunup in an hour.
- Fuse is burning, sir. - All right, she's burning! Let's get this raft loaded!
Let's move!
Sir, we got all the prisoners transferred to the S-33.
Very well.
Hey, Andy.
Make sure you got everything! Get it in the raft!
Get everything belowdecks. Let's go!
Everybody, belowdecks! Get down!
Chief, take her down! Aye, sir!
Let's go, Hirsch! The Enigma!
Trigger! Grab hold!
Trigger! Attaboy!
- Got it! - Help me! Help me! Oh, no! No!
We gotta get outta here! There's still men in the water.
Let's go! Chief, there's still men in the water.
Go!
Andy! Andy!
Go! Dive!
Take her down! Take her down!
Dive!
Tyler, let's go!
- Chief, you find those vents? - Everything's in German!
Rabbit, get to the torpedo room. Where's the goddamn 1 MC? Trigger, get on the helm!
Mazzola, take the planes! Aye, sir.
Wentz, what about these? I don't know.
There's no label! Okay, those are the aft ballast tanks vents!
These are the midship vents, and these are the main induction valves.
Make sure they're shut. Tank, I need speed!
Get the screws turning.
The lights are on, so there's got to be some power left. I can't read this!
Rabbit, find out how many fish we've got in the tubes! Figure out how to launch 'em!
Go! I can't read this!
Go help Tank, Hirsch. Go, Hirsch! Find the Christmas tree.
We've gotta make sure we don't have any holes in the boat!
"Klar, klar, klar." Wentz, what the hell is "klar"?
"Klar" means "clear." All compartments secure.
White for green? No holes in the ship! Dive the boat! White for green.
Opening ballast vents! Opening midship valves!
Opening midship vents!
This is forward trim, aft trim. These are auxiliaries.
Main motor. Auxiliary, auxiliary.
This is in meters. Everything's in meters.
Passing 15 meters.
Recommend shutting main vents!
- Make it so! Wentz, get in the sound room! - Yes, sir!
Make depth 20 meters. Depth 20 meters, aye.
- Chief, take the dive! - I have the dive.
At 20 meters. Bow planes at zero. Control your depth with the stern planes.
Bow planes at zero. Controlling down with the stern planes.
Oh, shit. All ahead full, sir!
Batteries are flat and draining fast!
Mr. Tyler, I hear the S-33 breaking up. Wait.
I hold a submerged U-boat, 0-1-0.
Real close. Less than 1,000 yards.
Goddamn resupply sub. What's our heading? Two-eight-zero, sir!
All right, right full rudder! Steady on 0-1-0!
Aye, sir! Right full rudder. Steady on course 0-1-0.
Tank, starboard back full. Rabbit, get back to me.
Starboard back full. Aye, sir.
- Watch your depth. She'll squat. - Rabbit!
We got four fish. Tubes are flooded, but I can't open the doors until I'm equalized.
I can't find the valve! Wentz, help Rabbit!
Enemy submarine close aboard. Torpedo in the water. Torpedo in the water!
All right, belay that. Wentz, stay where you are!
Hirsch, hotfoot it to the torpedo room!
Helm, mark your head every ten degrees. Aye, sir.
- Now passing 3-2-0. - Turn, baby, turn. Turn!
Equalizing valves. Holy shit! What's what? This is crazy. I can't equalize the tubes!
What do you need?
Equalizing valves! Equalizing valves! Valve?
Gyro? No, drainage. Drainage. No.
Now passing 0-0-0.
Swing, you bastard, swing.
Chief, stand by in case we have to flood forward trim.
Impulse? Differential... Pressure differential? No.
Turn 'em! Yes, turn 'em! Which way?
Counterclockwise.
Torpedo missed. It's in our baffles.
Two more torpedoes in the water!
Best bearing to the U-boat: 0-1-0.
Aye, Rabbit, get ready to fire a spread.
Tubes one and two. Zero gyro. Fire!
Rabbit, fire!
What's going on?
What is that? Wrong one! The fish is stuck!
- We missed an interlock. - Rabbit, get those fish out before they blow!
Look for "impulse air" or "firing air."
That was "impulse" there and there!
One, two, away. Lining up tubes three and four.
Three and four, fire!
All fish running hot, straight and normal.
I think they all missed, sir.
Shit.
U-boat's breaking up!
I hear bulkheads collapsing.
The 33 boat, Mr. Tyler.
