A Midshipman's Request for Attention
Midshipman Blakeney:
Excuse me, Sir?
Capt. Jack Aubrey:
Remove your hat, Blakeney. We're whalers here.
Midshipman Blakeney: [removes his hat]
May I speak with you, Sir?
Capt. Jack Aubrey:
Yes, yes.
Midshipman Blakeney:
Mr. Calamy says I'm not in the boarding party, I want to say...
Capt. Jack Aubrey: [Blakeney lowers his head in disappointment]
I know what you want to say. My answer is no. You'll lead your gun crew and then when we board, you'll take command of the ship from here on the quarterdeck. Do I make myself clear?
Midshipman Blakeney:
Take command of the ship? Thank you, Sir.
