• 'Ratbags' Crow : Sometimes I wonder how you chaps never won the war.

  Heinrich Dorfmann : War?

  'Ratbags' Crow : [making sputtering sounds like an airplane and gesturung to suggest a plane flying in a mocking fashion] 

  Heinrich Dorfmann : [trying not to respond in kind]  I wasn't involved.

  'Ratbags' Crow : [makes a sound like a machine gun, falls down on the sand, and rolls over]  That's it then! That's why they never won!

  'Ratbags' Crow : [in a mocking tone]  They didn't have old Heinrich!

• 'Ratbags' Crow : Don't forget to put it down in your diary, how very, very nice it was at the party here until the booze ran out!

• Standish : [nervously]  The sandstorm'll make it more difficult, won't it?

  'Ratbags' Crow : [in a mocking, ironic tone]  What? Find us? Nah, it'll simplify things no end, old chap! They'll just bloody give up! Oh, you're not frightened, are ya? You don't want to be despondent, old man, you know! Wait till the water runs out. Then you'll really start laughing!

  Standish : Hey, they wouldn't just give up looking, would they?

  Sergeant Watson : Never. Don't you worry, me old duck. They'll find us all right. Trouble is - we'll all be dead.
