 CONT: When Cmdr. Ritchie spills the coffee on his shirt, he is seen  at the mess table in PT 109s forward crews quarters, but when he  emerges on deck to see what has happened, he comes up through a  hatch at the stern of the boat under the 20mm gun. This hatch is to  the lazarette, a small workroom to the rear of the engine room.  Ritchie would have had to (quite needlessly) pass through almost the  entire boat below decks from bow to stern (front to rear)
