Young Angus: I like Joseph, but you've always been much more of a father to that boy than he ever has. Even if we win, he'll never be able to raise Nicholas himself.
Young Ducky: I know, which is why I'm going to do it.
Young Angus: And be a doctor in the Royal Army Medical Corps?
Young Ducky: I'm resigning my commission.
Young Angus: Resigning? Are you off your trolley? You've wanted this your entire life!
Young Ducky: Nicholas is my life. This quite simply is not a decision that requires one second of thought.
