Titanic Sets Sail, Explained：to hell with
Everyone is smiling as the Titanic leaves port: families say goodbye, officers trade jokes about promotion, and the men on the bridge trade compliments about the new ship. One line sums up the mood before disaster: "I'd rather be second in the Titanic than first or even chief in any other ship."
あらすじ
On sailing day, the Titanic leaves port amid cheerful send-offs. In the crew quarters, officers joke about who will be promoted, and Lightoller says he would rather be second on the Titanic than chief anywhere else. On the bridge, Ismay, Andrews and Captain Smith trade compliments about the new ship, while Andrews plays down his own role.

What's really going on
The scene is pure calm before the storm, and the film lets the irony do the work. Everyone on screen is measuring status and pride: officers gossip about promotions and whose nose is out of joint, while Ismay savours the welcome waiting in New York. Andrews, who actually built the ship, refuses credit — "You're the one who ought to take the bows. I'm only the office boy" — and one voice insists he is "just an ordinary passenger," a claim the rest of the film will test. The most quoted line, "I'd rather be second in the Titanic than first or even chief in any other ship," is both a career calculation and a boast about the vessel herself. None of them know the ship is hours from an iceberg.
Theme

I'd rather be second in the Titanic than first or even chief in any other ship.Lightoller's boast and career logic: no other command compares with serving aboard the newest, grandest ship afloat.
You're the one who ought to take the bows. I'm only the office boy.Andrews deflects praise for building the ship, a modesty that makes him the most likeable man on the bridge.
With me, madam, it's the honor of serving the company, and to hell with the pay.A crewman's declaration that company honour matters more than money — the spirit that keeps the officers loyal to the line.
I'm just an ordinary passenger on this trip.A modest-sounding line the film quietly undercuts: on a ship where everyone has a role, no one aboard is truly ordinary once disaster strikes.
このシーンについての質問
What does "nose out of joint" mean?
It means someone feels slighted or annoyed at being passed over. In the scene it is used of Murdoch, whose nose is out of joint this trip over the question of promotion.
Why is Murdoch unhappy on this trip?
The officers say the promotion question depends on whether old Wilde is kept on. Murdoch, described as ambitious, is the one whose nose is out of joint about it.
Why would Lightoller rather stay second officer than take a bigger command elsewhere?
He rates the ship above the rank. Second officer on the newest, grandest liner afloat counts for more to him than being first officer or even chief on any older vessel — part career logic, part pride in the Titanic.
Why does Andrews say he is "only the office boy"?
When praised as the man who built the Titanic, Andrews deflects the credit and plays down his own role, even though he is the ship's designer.
