- [Martha brings home canned clam chowder from the store with Daniel's face on the label]
- Martha Grant: I tell you, when I saw laughing boy on that label, I couldn't pass it up. I think I'll open a can of it for dinner tonight.
- Capt. Daniel Gregg: I'll level that blasted store.
- Carolyn Muir: You can't do that.
- Martha Grant: [only able to hear Carolyn] Why not?
- Capt. Daniel Gregg: I'll flatten it to the ground!
- Carolyn Muir: That's destroying private property.
- Martha Grant: Opening a can of clam chowder is destroying private property?
- Carolyn Muir: No, I'm sorry, Martha. Go ahead and destroy... eh, open it.
- Martha Grant: [to herself as she exits] Writers. Writers!
- Capt. Daniel Gregg: Claymore, lad, we Greggs have never backed off from a fight, have we?
- Claymore Gregg: Yes, we have.
- Capt. Daniel Gregg: No, we haven't. The Gregg name is at stake. The Gregg integrity. Damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead!
- Claymore Gregg: Aye, sir!
- Capt. Daniel Gregg: Show them what the Greggs are made of. Fight with your last drop of blood!
- Claymore Gregg: My last drop of blood.
- Capt. Daniel Gregg: With your last breath!
- Claymore Gregg: With my last breath.
- Capt. Daniel Gregg: With your last penny!
- Claymore Gregg: With my last... breath.
- Admiral Snedaker: Mrs. Muir, I'd like you to know that I revere the memory of Capt. Gregg, and you know what I saw when I looked into that face?
- Carolyn Muir: Chowder?
- Capt. Daniel Gregg: There's not an ounce of vanity in me.
- Carolyn Muir: There isn't room with all that integrity, virility and character.
- Capt. Daniel Gregg: I am considering recognizing you as my great nephew - strictly on a trial basis.
- Claymore Gregg: Oh, thank you, Uncle Danny.
- Capt. Daniel Gregg: [aghast] Uncle Danny?
- Claymore Gregg: Uncle Gregg... uh, Captain Danny... uh Captain Uncle.
- Capt. Daniel Gregg: Mrs. Muir, surely there must be another way.
