- All clear starboard.
- All clear port.

Hello, Andy.
:24:40
Almost 24 hours out now, skipper.
About time to open orders?
:24:43
Three minutes to go, Andy.
:24:45
I got a hunch it's something big.
:24:48
Last night, I dreamed
we upped periscope.
:24:51
Right in the middle of
the entire Jap imperial fleet.
:24:54
Passing in review.
:24:56
- Did we sink them all?
- With one torpedo.
:25:00
Billiard shot.
:25:01
By the way, there's a man
from the forward room.
:25:04
Wants to see you on a matter
of vital importance.
:25:08
- Torpedoman Adams.
- Send him in.
:25:18
I was told I'd have to ask you, sir.
:25:25
Go ahead. Ask me.
:25:27
Sir, at sub school, we saw a lot
of pictures of submariners...
:25:30
...coming back from patrols with beards.
:25:34
- So you want to grow one?
- Yes, sir.
:25:39
- Think you can?
- Sir, I'd like to find out.
:25:43
Well, I'll tell you, Adams.
:25:46
First patrol, we all grew beards.
I had a pip.
:25:49
The second patrol was
half and half.
:25:51
Then we decided beards are itchy.
They get greasy. We keep a trim ship.
:25:55
Makes sense we have a trim crew
to man her.
:25:57
Yes, sir.
:25:59
But I don't want to cheat you
of a beard on your first patrol.
