Quote context

[...]

- Oh, Mr. Silver, good evening.

- Wicked fog tonight, sir.

- Hmm. Hmm.

- Reminds me of the night we ran aground off the Pampas. Half the crew drowned in leaky lifeboats. Ah, it were a terrible shame.

- Leaky lifeboats?

- Oh, a common occurrence, sir. A little-used piece of equipment falls into disrepair and becomes, shall we say...

- Unsafe?

- Oh, I'm not sayin' our lifeboats are unsafe, sir. I'm not sayin' we got problems, uh...

- Still...

- Hmm. Hmm. The caulking appears tight. No dampness under the gunwale.

- This one seems seaworthy.

- Oh, well, sir, they do, of course, until you get them out in the open ocean.

- Cast me off, Mr. Silver.

- Oh, yes, sir.

- Oh, sir, is there anything I can hold for you for safekeeping? Your hat? Your coat? Um... Your keys?

- Hmm? My keys! Of course. If they were to fall overboard, it would be disastrous.

- Oh, that it would, sir.

- Oh! Cast me off, Mr. Silver!

- Aye, aye, sir!

- Thank you, Mr. Silver.

- Just doin' my duty, sir.

Who hired this crew? This is undoubtedly the seediest bunch of cutthroats, villains and scoundrels I have ever seen! So who hired 'em?
No. We must set an example for this questionable crew. There will be no consumption of alcohol of any kind.
We're standing in a room with a dead guy!
Tom, Tom, Tom! Oh! Dead Tom's dead!
You and your hobbies!
