Capt. Burnham : Hello, Lieutenant. I hope you won't mind having to fly the first woman over Antarctica.
Lt. Jack Carmen : [Obviously attracted to the beautiful reporter] Ma'am, you just say the word, and I'll fly you up to the moon.
Margaret 'Maggie' Hathaway : In a helicopter?
Capt. Burnham : [Reassuringly] You won't have to worry about him, Miss Hathaway. I'm sure he'll cool off as soon as he hits subzero weather.

Capt. Burnham : Now would you care to meet some of the men you'll be working with?
Margaret 'Maggie' Hathaway : I always love to meet men, Captain.
-
Cmdr. Harold Roberts : A few things, I can be quite romantic about.
Margaret 'Maggie' Hathaway : Name one.
Cmdr. Harold Roberts : Well, women.
Margaret 'Maggie' Hathaway : Oh?
Cmdr. Harold Roberts : For example: Although I know, basically, women consist mostly of water, with a few pinches of salt, and metals thrown in, you have a very unsaltlike and non-metallic effect.
Margaret 'Maggie' Hathaway : I give in.

Margaret 'Maggie' Hathaway : Well, who'd stay home with the baby?
Cmdr. Harold Roberts : Sure, who'd stay... What baby?
Margaret 'Maggie' Hathaway : Ours, silly. Why by this time next year...

Capt. Burnham : Of course, you're aware of the dangers of this trip?
Margaret 'Maggie' Hathaway : I am. I've read a great deal about Antarctica.
Capt. Burnham : I wasn't thinking of Antarctica, exactly. I was thinking more of your being alone with 800 men.
Margaret 'Maggie' Hathaway : I've read a great deal about men too. Don't forget, once I was alone with half a million of them for three months in Korea.
Capt. Burnham : In that case, Ms. Hathaway, I think you've had excellent basic training.
