Fletcher Christian:
Would you care for a drink? Midshipman Edward 'Ned' Young:
No, thank you. Fletcher Christian:
[seeing that Ned doesn't leave]
Well, what are you standing there for? Did you come here to watch my Adam's apple bob about while I drink? Midshipman Edward 'Ned' Young:
No, I'm thirsty. Fletcher Christian:
Well, take some water, then. Midshipman Edward 'Ned' Young:
I couldn't. I couldn't get it down. Fletcher Christian:
[throwing the ladle angrily]
Puking hell, you're a bore! Midshipman Edward 'Ned' Young:
Is it a bore to want to help men whose lives are being torn out of them by a madman? Fletcher Christian:
Why don't you have the carpenter build you a cross, so you can drag about the ship and put ashes on your head? That would suit you, wouldn't it? Midshipman Edward 'Ned' Young:
I've known you all my life, but I've never really known you till this moment. You're just exactly what you seem to be. A supercilious poseur without the slightest trace of humanity or compassion. Fletcher Christian:
Are you quite finished with your impertinence? Midshipman Edward 'Ned' Young:
Not quite. One needn't look further for you character than the pomade in your hair. Fletcher Christian:
You'll close your arrogant mouth, Mr. Midshipman Young, or I'll have you on the rack. That's a promise and an order
