The cheese thing was a scene in the movie, Bligh says "care for some cheese Christian?" after the rations disappeared.

Hillbrant was one of the very first to run afoul of Captain Bligh, and in this case, contrary to most others, it might well not have been through anyfault of his own. Hillbrant, as will be seen later, was a talkative person and very likely not able to keep secrets well. When the cheese rations were found to be short, it was Hillbrant, the cooper who had the responsibility for the barrels of provisions, who blurted out that he had seen Samuel, the clerk, take the cheeses from the barrels and, when questioned by Hillbrant, Samuel stated that he had been ordered by Bligh to take the cheeses to Bligh's home.
