Adm. Dean Winslow:
[the Stingray returns from its successful war game. The crew presents to Winslow]
Welcome home, captain. You certainly pushed my order to the breaking point. Lt. Cmdr Dodge:
Thank you, sir. I mean, if that's a compliment. Adm. Dean Winslow:
However, given the circumstances, I will not be able to give you your own Los Angeles class nuclear submarine. Lt. Cmdr Dodge:
[Face shows some disappointment]
Yes, sir. Adm. Dean Winslow:
[Smiles]
You'll instead be given a new Seawolf class nuclear submarine and will attend its launching on Friday. And you'll also be given a proper crew, one commensurate with your tactical and leadership abilities. Lt. Cmdr Dodge:
Thank you very much, sir, but respectfully, I'll have to decline. Adm. Dean Winslow:
Decline? Lt. Cmdr Dodge:
I would not be in line for such a promotion without the help of my present crew. I cannot, in good conscience, accept another command without them. Adm. Dean Winslow:
Still setting terms, huh, Dodge? Lt. Cmdr Dodge:
Just respectfully requesting, sir. Adm. Dean Winslow:
Well, at least you got my son to face forward. [Stephanek looks embarrassed, the rest of the crew snickers] Lt. Cmdr Dodge:
Your son? Stepanek, sir? Adm. Dean Winslow:
Yes, it's his mother's name. His salute still leaves something to be desired. Lt. Cmdr Dodge:
We'll work on that, sir. Adm. Dean Winslow:
You do that, Commander! [Dodge and Winslow salute each other]
