Been running your mouth, ensign,|about boat matters?
Gentlemen, gentlemen.
As for the record player|going off,
well, yeah, that's strange.
But I don't think it calls for|a lynching party.
I think we should all|just take a deep breath.
...Conn, Brice.
Where'd you find it?
Make a hole!
Lieutenant, I was all set|to toss these pants,
then I noticed this, sir.
And these came from...
The half-dead guy, sir.
Must've been him|done that record player.
Wake him up.
I-I'm sorry.|I'm not quite sure...
Wake the German up.
Hello, "mein Kapitan".
Jesus.
It was me.|It was my idea.
I was the one who told him|not to speak.
She had him under our noses|the whole goddamn time.
Aah!
...Wait!|...I'll tell you.
I'll tell you everything.|His name is Ben Archerlift.
He's a downed aviator.|He's a patient of mine.
He's a prisoner of war,|and under the Geneva Convention,
he's entitled to|humane treatment!
He has a wife and family.
He wants to get home|just like you or me.
Everything will be all right.
You should've told me.
Maybe I was afraid you'd do|exactly what you've just done!
You should've told me|no matter what,
'cause your little secret nearly|cost every man here his life.
You had no cause.
Mr. O'Dell, the woman|is confined to quarters
for the duration|of the patrol.
If she asks to use the toilet,|you are to bring her a bucket.
Stumbo, clean up|that f***in' mess.
F***ing A-1, sir.
I'll be in my berth...
sleeping.
I just wanted to save one.
Just...
one of my patients.
Aaaahh!
Look,|it's happened twice now.
I don't think|that's an accident.
Somebody is up to something.
Well, just so you know, I've|walked in the wardroom before
and found a steward listening|to the record player
while he was cleaning up.
...Now, I wouldn't blame him...|...Unless he's...
...Hey, Champ.|...Hey.
How are those hydrogen levels?
It's almost 3% .
Chief says we need to vent|before long.
All right. We'll ride|surface tonight... 2100.
Is there something else?
Yeah.
I just can't believe it's one|of our own hands doing this.
I've been on the boat|seven weeks now,
and I know most of the guys.
I just don't believe|it's one of them.
...Who are you suggesting?|...I'm not suggesting anybody.
You know,|it's been a rough patrol.
Some men do strange things|under duress.
So just keep your eyes open.
Yes, sir.
Bright kid, O'Dell.
Get off.
Get off before it's too late.
Down here.
I-I was awake.
I wasn't dreaming.|I know I was awake.
Don't let them get to you.
I heard a voice. I heard it.
It's nothing.
Just ignore them, all right?|Claire, are you listening?
...I thought he spoke to me.|...Claire...
It wasn't his voice,|but he spoke to me.
Claire!
...Is this your idea of a joke?|...Claire, don't.
Have you got nothing better|to do at a time of war
than play games|with dead bodies?!
You are on thin ice...|real thin ice.
Wrap it back up...
for the last time.
We'll dump him|when we surface.
A bit more respect for the dead|might be in order, Mr. Brice...
from everybody|onboard this ship.
This is a boat|you're a guest on, not a ship.
Get off|before it's too late!
Hoag, are you pushing him up|or feeling him up?
I've got a dead kraut dick in my|face, and you're complaining?
Come on, Stumbo!
You need to turn around.
Oh, nice try.
Hoag told you, right?
Turn around.
So many left behind.
I want...
God damn it!
What the hell|are you doing, Stumbo?
...Stumbo.
I'm telling you, there's some|bad hoodoo on this boat.
That might've worked on|the female, Stumbo, but not me.
Look, f*** the brillo pad.|This ain't about her.
He talked to me.
Oh, wow.|...The dead guy?
...The dead kraut talked to me.|...Yeah, right.
Wow.
Did he talk to you|in English or German?
I guess it was English.
Case closed.
Prepare to surface.|Prepare to surface.
Be ready on all four engines.|Stand by to charge batteries.
Let's go. Come on.
Move it, move it.
Okay, okay.
The chief's gonna|skin us alive.
I don't care what he said.
I've just got to get out|of that room.
Well...
make it quick, all right?
Switching to night lights.
Coming up to periscope depth.
Lookouts, gun crews... stand by.
"1420 hours:
"Took periscope photos|of German sub-pent at Lorient
"before moving on|to areas north.
"O. M. I. Should be happy|with results.
"1550 hours:
Saw multiple|shipping targets,"but passed on all.
"Men getting itchy|to come home...
With at least one kill. "
"0840 hours:
|Picked up three survivors"from the Fort James British|merchantman and hospital ship.
Reportedly victims|of a German U-boat. "
Some tall grass out there.
Yeah, it's good skies,|though.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, we should be able to hit|a couple of sites,
affix our position.
Well done.
The sextant in my cabin.
Very well.
Is it possible|to see the...
Uh, talk to me later.
Mr. Coors, are we going to be|surfacing soon,
take on some fresh air?
...We're trying to.|...Any idea when that might be?
What are you doing here?
I-I wasn't comfortable|in my cabin,
what with the blood|on the walls.
You shouldn't be|in the skipper's cabin
without permission.
Well, I'll gladly ask him.
Mr. Brice is the skipper,|isn't he?
Lieutenant Brice is|the current C. O. Of the boat.
You need his permission|to be anywhere
besides your assigned quarters.
Now...
Sorry.
Motormac Jenkins|to the battery room.
Motormac Jenkins|to the battery room.
Screws kicking over,|starboard beam!
Emergency dive!
Emergency dive! Dive!|Flood negative!
Give me a 25-degree angle|on the bow plane!
25 on the bow plane, sir!
Used to feel like|a "big" ocean, didn't it?
We are running out of places|to hide.
Crow, give me one sounding|for depth on "their" ping.
...Got that?|...Yes, sir.
...3...
...2...
...1.
Not much there, sir.
Bring in the soundheads.|Let's use it all.
Aah!
What was that?
Don't ask me.
Ask him.
...What was that?|...Miss Page, once again,
I must remind you,|do not leave your station.
What did we hit just now?!
The bottom.
Well, how long can we afford|to stay down here?
I thought you said we needed|to surface to take on...
Attention all hands...
off-duty personnel are expected|to be in the racks.
And the smoking lamp is out.
Seaweed.
Might be a fishing net.
It's caught up,|slaps against the hull.
You hear... you hear a lot|of strange things at depth.
I mean, I can't even|identify 'em all.
So...
What am I gonna do with you?
I'm sorry.
I regret not telling you|about Schillings...
because... well,|l-I should have realized
that a submarine isn't|a good place to keep secrets.
Is it?
We'd been stalking|a German sub tender for a while.
We finally got our shot in,
cracked its back|with one torpedo.
We went topside to survey the|damage, and the ship was gone.
But there's a lot of debris|in the water,
and Captain Winters decides|to go down and haul some in.
It was the middle|of the Atlantic.
He wants to do|some souvenir hunting,
