  • As the Stooges are painting one of their ship's rooms, Curly doesn't pay attention to where he paints, such as accidentally painting on Moe's head.
    Moe: Hey! Why don't ya look where you're paintin'?
    Curly: I'm paintin' where I'm lookin'!
  • When the Stooges are trapped in a room they run in after Moe accidentally hit Dungen, they search for a way out. Curly looks out a nearby porthole and gets hit by a wave of water that comes in.
    Curly: What a day!
    • When he shows it to Larry...
      • As Larry leaves, Curly looks in it and gets hit by another wave again.
    • Curly puts on a raincoat this time, only for a squirt of water to hit him.
      Curly: That's not the same day.
      • He takes it off afterwards and sticks his tongue out at the ocean and gets hit by yet another.
        Curly: That's the same day!
  • When the Stooges board a ship after sailing on a raft for a several days after they'd blown up a submarine bomb they mistook for a whale, they hide after discovering they're on a Nazi ship called the S.S. Schicklgruber. During hiding, this conversation starts.
    Larry: We gotta use the old bean!
    Curly: I couldn't look another bean in the face! (cue dope slap by Moe)
    Moe: Shut up! We gotta get into Nazi uniforms somehow. If we're discovered, we're lost!
    Curly: You're crazy. If we're discovered, we're found. (Moe nosehonks Curly) Oh!
  • When Curly accidentally bumps into an officer, he's sent to polish the ship's cannon and not get any food. Fortunately, Moe and Larry go to sneak food for him; to which, the only food they had were beans, much to Curly's dismay.
    Curly: Beans is all I get, it's beans, beans!
  • When the Stooges coax the rest of the Nazi soldiers, Curly gets the last one, which is an overweight on Larry can't carry, resulting in Larry being crushed under his weight.
    Moe: A German whale!
  • When the Stooges overhear the coversation between the captain and officers:
    Larry: We gotta get rid of that captain and his officers!
    Moe: Yeah, we gotta use strategy.
    Curly: We can't use nobody! There's only three of us!
    Moe: (annoyed) Be quiet!
  • The Nazi sailors are portrayed as stupid even by comparison to the Stooges:
    Moe (disguised as Hitler): You fail to catch three spies! Blow out your brains!
    Captain: But, mein Führer, we're Nazis. We have no brains!
  • Moe's reaction to losing his fake mustache while disguised as Hitler:
    Moe: Oh! My personality!
