- Robbie Lucas: Oh, Mister Andrews?
- Thomas Andrews: Yes?
- Robbie Lucas: I'd like you to tell me something. I... I have a wife and three children on board. Just how serious is it?
- [Andrews hesitates]
- Robbie Lucas: I'm not the panicking kind.
- Thomas Andrews: The ship has about an hour to live. A little more, if some of the upper bulkheads hold, but not much more. Get your wife and children into the boats.
- Robbie Lucas: Thank you.
- [Andrews walks off]
- Robbie Lucas: Oh, Mister Andrews?
- [Andrews stops and turns around]
- Robbie Lucas: I take it you and I might both be in the same boat later?
- Thomas Andrews: [smiles sadly] Yes... We may.
- Mrs. Liz Lucas: [Lucas returns to his stateroom after being told the situation by Andrews] Please, will you tell me what's going on, Robert? People have been rushing about, and noises overhead...
- Robbie Lucas: It's very tiresome. We've struck an iceberg and damaged the ship. We may be a day late getting into New York.
- Mrs. Liz Lucas: Oh, that is annoying.
- Robbie Lucas: And, to make matters worse, the captain is being very fussy and correct. All women and children have to go up on deck and get into the lifeboats.
- Mrs. Liz Lucas: Oh no.
- Robbie Lucas: I'm afraid so, dear.
- Mrs. Liz Lucas: But I don't want to wake the children. Is it really necessary?
- Robbie Lucas: Yes!
- [very somber tone]
- Robbie Lucas: I... I believe we should do as the captain says.
