Dr. Stephen Maturin is a main character in Patrick O'Brien's "Aubrey and Maturin" books (semi-classic, much-neglected historical adventure series set in the Napoleanic Wars). He's an Irish/Catalan physician, naturalist, and secret agent (for the British, though he wasn't always), usually ship's surgeon "under" Captain Jack Aubrey. I put "under" in quotation marks because they're best friends and both equally ingenius and B.A., though in completely different areas.

They made a movie of the books, called Master and Commander. I haven't seen all of it, but it's left out some of his cunning and his ingenious snarkery, and the whole fact of his being a secret agent. So for people who hadn't read the books, it probably wasn't half so funny to see him brought to a standstill by Jack's pun, because they haven't seen how rare it really is for Stephen Maturin to be be "brought by the lee" (a phrase from the books used to mean "bewildered" - it comes from some nautical thing or other, which I couldn't for the life of me comprehend).
