Break out the MISSOURI. Hell, it worked in “Battleship.” And no steenkin’ merchant ship would have caused as much damage.

“And no steenkin’ merchant ship would have caused as much damage.”

That is just crazy talk. 20,000 tons moving at 27 knots T-bones your 8,900 sea going Ferrari there is going to be lots of damage. Very lucky we didn’t loose the whole ship and more of the crew.
