A group of his kids went down the hall to investigate and came back yelling and screaming, "They're shooting!"

But, his respect for authority outweighs Starbuck's determination to return alive to wife and kids. He puts back the knife and ultimately drowns with the rest of the crew, while chasing the whale. Not quite the mystique that Terry and Gordon had in mind...
