Isn't there one psychiatric term
for this illness?
3:39:07
- I never mentioned any illness.
- Thank you for the correction.
3:39:11
What would you call a personality
with all these symptoms?
3:39:16
A paranoid personality.
But that is not a disabling illness.
3:39:20
- What kind of personality?
- Paranoid.
3:39:27
I would like to protest
the counsel's twisting of words.
3:39:32
There's a difference between mental
illness and mental disturbance.
3:39:36
Could Captain Queeg have been
disabled by the strain of command?
3:39:42
- That's absurdly hypothetical.
- Is it?
3:39:45
- Have you ever had any sea duty?
- No.
3:39:49
Have you ever been at sea?
How long have you been in the Navy?
3:39:54
Five months.
3:39:56
- Have you ever dealt with captains?
- No.
3:40:00
You're no authority on this matter,
and you may be wrong about Queeg.
3:40:09
- Your witness.
- One minute, Doctor.
3:40:13
The defence
has an interesting point.
3:40:16
Did you ever have patients who dealt
with complicated command decisions?
3:40:22
- Plant managers, industrialists...
- Quite a few.
3:40:27
Including flyers, who deal with
life and death every day.
3:40:31
I've written a book on the subject.
3:40:34
Could you detect where a neurosis
might damage decision-making?
3:40:40
- Absolutely.
- You examined Lt. Commander Queeg.
3:40:45
- And you found no such damage?
- That's right.
3:40:48
Thank you, Doctor.
That'll be all.
3:40:53
- Smart guy.
- He's sure gonna bear down on me.
