Lt. Darik Westergard Quotes in Crimson Tide (1995)

Peter "Weps" Ince: Okay. What's going on?

Zimmer: We're not going to let this go down with the X-O and Helm.

Peter "Weps" Ince: We're not?

Zimmer: No. We're not?

Lt. Bobby Dougherty: We've been following the captain for years, and now this asshole Hunter shows up, and we're supposed to follow him because he said so?

Peter "Weps" Ince: You're not supposed to, you were ordered to. That's what this is about, proper orders.

Lt. Bobby Dougherty: Proper Orders? He has proper orders, he won't act on them

Peter "Weps" Ince: He's in command now! If they order him to launch, we'll launch, and we'll blow 'em all to hell. But, I rather go down myself then get this one wrong.

Lt. Darik Westergard: Weps. Our procedures are clear. In the absence of a contravening order and in a situation like this, we follow the orders in hand.

Zimmer: That's right. You know how many checks that we have to go through to make sure that a message is authentic? The X-O agreed to those orders, now he just wants to throw them away they don't count?

Lt. Bobby Dougherty: He's lost his nerve.

Peter "Weps" Ince: Bullshit! I know this guy Bobby!

Lt. Darik Westergard: Weps. We're prepared for launch. How can we just sit here and do nothing when they're prepared to launch at us?

Peter "Weps" Ince: Well, we don't know that for sure that's the whole point. That is why he needs time to confirm the message.

Zimmer: That's the whole fuckin' point is that we don't got time! Radchenko is fueling his birds and why do you think he's doing that? Huh? Why? Because you don't put on a condom until you're gonna fuck!
