Petty Officer First Class Danny Rivetti Quotes in Crimson Tide (1995)

Hunter: Rivetti, what's up?

Petty Officer First Class Danny Rivetti: I'm sorry, Sir. It's just a difference of opinion that got out of hand.

Hunter: What about?

Petty Officer First Class Danny Rivetti: It's really too silly to talk about, Sir. I'd really just forget about...

Hunter: I don't give a damn about what you'd rather forget about. Why were you two fighting?

Petty Officer First Class Danny Rivetti: I said, the Kirby Silver Surfer was the only real Silver Surfer. And that the Moebius Silver Surfer was shit. And Bennefield's a big Moebius fan. And it got of hand. I pushed him. He pushed me. I lost my head, Sir. I'm Sorry.

Hunter: Rivetti, you're a supervisor. You can get a commission like that.

[Snaps finger]

Petty Officer First Class Danny Rivetti: I know, Sir. You're 100 percent right. It will never happen again.

Hunter: It better not happen again. If I see this kind of nonsense again, I'm going to write you up. You understand?

Petty Officer First Class Danny Rivetti: [No answer]

Hunter: Do you understand?

Petty Officer First Class Danny Rivetti: Yes, Sir.

Hunter: You have to set an example even in the face of stupidity. Everybody who reads comic books knows that the Kirby Silver Surfer is the only true Silver Surfer. Now am I right or wrong?

Petty Officer First Class Danny Rivetti: You're right, Sir.

Hunter: Now get out of here.

Petty Officer First Class Danny Rivetti: Yes, Sir.

[Rivetti attempts to free Hunter from the Officer's Mess when Bennefield stops him]

Bennefield: What are you doing down here?

Petty Officer First Class Danny Rivetti: [Alerted by Bennefield's presence] Jesus, I was just going to the bath...

Bennefield: [Shoving Rivetti into a nearby bulkhead] Hey, nobody moves alone! Come on, you know the drill!

Petty Officer First Class Danny Rivetti: [Resisting Bennefield] What, Bennefield? I need an escort to take a shit?

Bennefield: [Pushing Rivetti back against the bulkhead] Shut up! Now, I'm gonna call control! You stay right there.

Petty Officer First Class Danny Rivetti: Fuck that!

Bennefield: I mean it, man!

[Bennefield turns his back as Rivetti overpowers him and punches him in the nose with his fist. Rivetti grabs the rifle and cocks it at Bennefield]

Petty Officer First Class Danny Rivetti: [Giving Bennefield the key to the Officer's Mess] Okay, Moebius, open the door.

Bennefield: You broke my nose, man!

Petty Officer First Class Danny Rivetti: [smacking the barrel of the rifle against Bennefield's right cheek] Shut up, fat boy.
