Quotes 

• Magnus Armstrong : [to Inge Wagner]  A good beating might knock some of that ugly out of you.

• [Magnus Armstrong is in the galley of the ship, getting drunk] 

  Inge Wagner : [From down the hall]  Armstrong! Where are you?

  [Inge enters the galley] 

  Inge Wagner : I demand an explanation.

  Magnus Armstrong : [Slurred]  'splanation for what?

  Inge Wagner : Heinrich tells me the girl is still alive. Perhaps you did not understand my orders.

  Magnus Armstrong : Yer orders? Ha! You don't give me orders.

  Inge Wagner : She was to be liquidated! Why did you spare her?

  Magnus Armstrong : I'll not slay a countryman without a fair fight. The girl's just doing her job.

  Inge Wagner : She's a threat to our operation. I'm sure the Director would agree with me.

  Magnus Armstrong : Then, you kill her.

  Inge Wagner : Coward.

  Magnus Armstrong : Fatty.

  Inge Wagner : Drunk.

  Magnus Armstrong : ...Fatty!

  Inge Wagner : You disgust me!

  [a large explosion rocks the ship] 

  Inge Wagner : What was that?

  Magnus Armstrong : That's an explosion.

  Inge Wagner : [to a sailor]  Find out what's going on!

  Sailor : Jawohl Fraulein Wagner!

  Sailor : [Over intercom]  Abandon ship, abandon ship!

  Sailor #1 : Did he say 'ship', or 'sheep'?

  Sailor #2 : Ship I think, why?

  Sailor #1 : Uh, no reason.

• Magnus Armstrong : Well, let's go.

  Inge Wagner : What about the cargo?

  Magnus Armstrong : You're welcome to fetch it, fatty! As for me, I'm gettin' off this boat before she sinks.

  Inge Wagner : But, the operation!

  Magnus Armstrong : We can replace the cargo, but I'm one of a kind, if you take my meaning.

  Inge Wagner : The Director will not be pleased.

  Magnus Armstrong : Then stay here and show your devotion. I'll nail up a commemorative plaque for you in the ladies room of that wretched nightclub of yours.

  Inge Wagner : I can't help it if my beautiful cabaret is infested with beatniks. I've tried to get rid of them, but they're like roaches.

  Magnus Armstrong : Probably because they think you sing like that on purpose. Experimental jazz or some such shite.

  Inge Wagner : Cretin.

  Magnus Armstrong : Enough of this jabbering! Get out of my way, your hideous mass is blocking the bulkhead!

• Inge Wagner : [singing]  Send in the divers!

  Magnus Armstrong : Make sure you get the shipping manifest and the Captain's log. Oh, and if you see a half empty bottle of Lathroit floating about in my quarters, I'd be much obliged if you'd retrieve her for me.

  Sailor : Yes sir!

  Inge Wagner : You disgust me.

  Magnus Armstrong : So?

  Inge Wagner : You are a drunk and a coward.

  Magnus Armstrong : You can say what you please about my hobbies and my hygiene, but I swear if you ever cast aspersions on my manhood again, I'll pound you. I'm not a coward.

  Inge Wagner : Your threats don't frighten me.

  Magnus Armstrong : A good beating might knock some of that ugly out of you. Care to find out?

  Inge Wagner : I will be in my quarters rehearsing, I am not to be disturbed.

  Magnus Armstrong : That's right. It's the rest of us who'll be disturbed you bloody great banshee. I've heard cats in heat that sing prettier than you.

  Inge Wagner : Criticism is the refuge of those without the talent or discipline for the pursuit of art. I pity you.

  Magnus Armstrong : And well you should. You call that bellowing of yours art? Fart is more like it.

  Inge Wagner : Imbecile.

  Magnus Armstrong : [singing]  Fatty fatty fatty, fatitty fat, fatty fatty.

  Inge Wagner : Hmph!
