Lt. Comdr. Challee
- Lt. Comdr. Challee: Mr. Keith, how long have you been in the navy?
- Lt. Keith: A little over a year, sir.
- Lt. Comdr. Challee: Do you know how many years Lieutenant Commander Queeg served at sea?
- Lt. Keith: No.
- Lt. Comdr. Challee: As a matter of fact, Lieutenant Commander Queeg has served over eight years. I ask you: which of you is better qualified to judge if a ship is foundering?
- Lt. Keith: Myself, sir, when I am in possession of my faculties and Commander Queeg is not.
- Lt. Comdr. Challee: Tell me, Mr. Keith, how would you describe this loss of faculty? Did the captain rave or make insane gestures?
- Lt. Keith: Well, no, sir.
- Lt. Comdr. Challee: After being relieved, did the captain go violently crazy?
- Lt. Keith: Well, the captain was never crazy either before or after being relieved. There are other forms of mental illness.
- Lt. Comdr. Challee: Thank you for your expert opinion. Are you aware that the captain has been pronounced completely rational by three qualified psychiatrists?
- Lt. Keith: They weren't on the bridge of the Caine during that typhoon, sir.
- Lt. Comdr. Challee: Did Captain Queeg look sick?
- Lieutenant Tom Keefer: Well, at the height of a typhoon, no one aboard a DMS looks very well.
