Ross: Season 1, Episode 1
Captain: "Gambling again Poldark. Remind me why you enlisted?"
Ross: "To escape the gallows, sir."
Captain: "Your crime?"
Ross: "Brawling, sir. Free trading, assaulting a customs official."
Captain: "Wastrels and thieves, the lot of you. But you'll soon have the honour of redeeming yourselves - in the service of king and country.... Do you doubt the justice of our cause, sir?"
Ross: "What cause would that be, sir? Liberty or tyranny?"
