She could not believe what she was hearing, that could not be true! Not in a civilised, democratic, US ship! Her first reaction was to think it was a bad joke but there was no hint of that on Hawkes' face. She was truly shocked, unable to find words to express her horror and lack of understanding. Her eyes moved from the Captain to the officers who had just entered the stateroom, trying to see if they were going to obey such obviously unjust and tyrannical orders.<br/><br/><strong>"But... That can't be... Listen!... Wait... That's a bad joke?... That's inhuman!... You can't do THAT!?!? Not to ME!!??!??"</strong>where the words that finally managed to erupt from her gaping mouth. Then, turning to the two officers,<strong>"You won't obey such orders? Those are war crimes! I hope you realise it!"</strong>
