Ned: Well...Now that you've come to mention it...do you think Beyonce is immune? I mean, it's possible. Five percent and all that. I think she'd look rather good on my arm. Don't you think?

Lt. Kara Foster: I agree. I'm just saying, all the girls are talking about the man from down under.

Ding-dong! Hey, US Navy, it's bad luck for you happening on this ship, but this is the end of the line for you. Because we know how to fight better than you do. And if it's a fight you want, it's a fight you're gonna get.
