Your Kilrathi pals were pretty helpful with my cloaker gadget

Control Bay, BWS Intrepid.

Pliers: Hey, got some good news, kid.
Maverick: I can always use some of that.
Pliers: Your Kilrathi pals were pretty helpful with my cloaker gadget.
Maverick: You got it working?
Pliers: Yeah, the cats showed me how to get some extra charges outta the crystal that runs it. Problem is, I only got one of them crystals left, so you can forget about having a wingman along. Flying next to a guy who ain’t cloaked kinda defeats the purpose anyway, right? And, of course, the crystal is still gonna burn out sooner or later – hopefully later. Personally, I’d like to see us raiding those mines where they dig up those crystals, but they’re pretty deep in Confed territory. Anyway, care to run with it kid?

I prefer a wingman

Maverick: Sorry, Pliers. If I can’t depend on it lasting for enough time, then getting stuck with no wingman to cover for me… I don’t think so.
Pliers: That’s the thanks I get for all my hard work.

We're here to raid a shipyard

Chart Room, BWS Intrepid.

Maverick: Lieutenant. Everybody here? All right.
Wilford: Colonel, I’m here in Speradon commanding the fleet action. As you know, we’re here to raid a shipyard, but there are several other targets we’d like to acquire first.
Maverick: Well, I’m ready to review ’em, Admiral.
Wilford: Now, this is a testing site within an asteroid belt where Confed shakes down their newly-built fighters. We’d love to confiscate a few. Second, the ringed planet in this system is orbited by a weapons-manufacturing plant: another prime target. And, finally, we’ve zeroed in on a carrier – poorly guarded – undergoing some ad-hoc repairs near the outermost planet. Now, I’m downloading mission specifics and a pre-recorded briefing for each operation. I’ll leave you to size up the tactical situation, Colonel, and make the decision on how to proceed. Good luck.

Mission Briefing (LA)

Wilford: Now, this asteroid belt hides a testing ground for Confed’s newly-built fighters. Now, one hitch is that they’ve got an electronic moat around the site, including a sophisticated radar device which should probably be your initial target… if you can sneak up on it. Now, once you’ve disabled the fighters, we’ll send in a capship from our fleet to pick them up.
Hawk: If we track on their radar, they’ll have all kinds of reinforcements to check us. I wish we could fly invisible.
Maverick: Our leech guns should disable these fighters. All right, people, let’s go.

Mission Briefing (LB)

Wilford: The weapons plant orbiting this ringed planet has quite a little security blanket. Now, they’re sure to see you coming on their radar. But, if you manage to clear a path, your marines can be shuttled in to take control of it. Then we’ll be able to collect some of the equipment that our forces urgently need.
Maverick: All right, let’s go to work.

Mission Briefing (LC)

Wilford: A Concordia-class carrier is undergoing ad-hoc repairs near the outermost planet. A skeleton crew maintains her, but they haven’t off-loaded any equipment: fighters, weapons, spare parts – could be a rich target, Colonel, if you can get past her radar and fighter patrols. Take out her turrets and engines. Then we’ll send in the Hopkins from the fleet to take over.
Maverick: All right, get to it, people.

Your friend's really pissing me off

Storage Hold, BWS Intrepid.

Hawk: Your friend’s really pissing me off.
Maverick: Let me take a wild guess – Maniac?
Hawk: You know, he doesn’t quite have the rep you have. And, as far as I’m concerned, he really hasn’t proven himself. He ought to have a little more humility and learn how to fly support, instead of going off and doing his own thing.

Time to be a captain

Maniac leads a charmed life

Galley, BWS Intrepid.

Maniac: Anyway, I fire a couple of missiles way over their heads, right? So they think I just can’t aim. Then, when I got my last heat seeker – BAM! They never know what hit ’em. They think it’s an accident.
Maverick: Yeah! Probably ’cause it was an accident.
Maniac: Excuse me – the boy is trying to learn ways to break out of the pack. You know, to find an edge. Now, he can learn to fly with shields up like grandma by listening to you. Or he could push the envelope a little bit.
Maverick: <chuckles> The only envelope you’ve ever pushed is the one addressed to common sense.
Catscratch: Well, he… he does have quite a kill score, sir.
Maverick: Maniac leads a charmed life. There’s one on every ship, but only one. Relying on luck, like he does, is a poor way to reach old age.
Maniac: There you have it, kid. You can reach old age – like a certain someone we know – and um… maybe get yourself a gold watch. Or, you can fly the stick with a little style, huh, little ’tude, and make a name for yourself. Tough call.
Maverick: But the choice is yours, Catscratch. Want your name on a gold watch… or a coffin?
Maniac: You gonna finish that?
Catscratch: Um… no.
Maniac: Really? What is that stuff?
Catscratch: I don’t know.

It looks like we've got a break

Chart Room, BWS Intrepid.

Maverick: Oh, thanks. Everybody here? All right.
Wilford: Colonel, for a long time we’ve been trying to suss out an equipment supply line we believed might skirt the edges of this system. Well, it looks like we’ve got a break: a huge convoy is coming through the line. Now, I’m pulling you off the sorties we discussed earlier and I’m assigning you to the advance forces raiding this convoy. Now, we’d like to insert a few marines aboard the largest of the capital ships so they can take control of it.
Dekker: Sounds like we oughtta be getting hazard pay for this.
Wilford: You’re working for the wrong side if you’re looking for bonuses.
Maverick: Dekker, we’ll use the insertion pods to deliver you and your men – they’ll think it’s just another missile.
Dekker: Don’t forget about picking us up, boss.
Wilford: Now, ships from our fleet will shuttle in larger forces so we can complete the raid. You’re the shock troops. We go or don’t go on your say-so. Understood?
Maverick: Yes, sir.
Wilford: Oh, one other thing. We’re picking up some very odd red-shift signals from a small artificial satellite circling the fourth planet. Now, we’d like to pluck this thing out of its orbit – take a closer look at it. Good luck.
Maverick: All right, who wants to tractor in that satellite?
Catscratch: I’ll volunteer for that one, sir.
Maverick: Any other takers? All right, Catscratch, looks like the milk run’s yours. Let’s go, people.

I missed when it really counted, sir

Launch Deck, BWS Intrepid.

Maniac: Hey! Hey! Get over here! Get over here! What did I say?
Catscratch: Well, I– I…
Maniac: No, what did I tell you to…?
Catscratch: I’m really sorry, sir.
Maverick: I just want to know how you got in that predicament – it was supposed to be a milk run.
Catscratch: I suppose I got a little too clever, sir. I fired off a coupla missiles as decoys like Maniac was talking about, only I… I missed when it really counted, sir.
Maverick: I should have known. If I ever hear you handing out advice again, I will personally put a big red bull’s-eye on your back and declare it open season.

Maniac: I’ll check with you later.
Maverick: You know that stunt cost us – cost the Border Worlds – quite a lot.
Catscratch: I’m really sorry, sir.
Maverick: If we weren’t so desperate for pilots, I’d ground you in a minute, but… consider yourself on probation… for the rest of the decade.

He'll stay in our hearts, always

Launch Deck, BWS Intrepid.

Maverick: I’m listening.
Pliers: Well, we can bang the metal a coupla places, open up a little more space, maybe squeeze in another missile or two. Might take a couple clicks off the old speedo, but it sure would be nice to have an ace-in-the-hole, huh? Whaddya say?

Sosa: He’s out there… along with my heart… both nothing more than space dust. People fly through it every day: they don’t even know it.

How does our little boat fit in?

Maverick: 46 hours.
Hawk: 46! It’s only been 20 for me.
Maverick: What?
Hawk: Since I slept.
Maverick: No, I’m talking about how long it’s been since Captain Eisen left. He hasn’t sent a trans, has he?
Panther: Not a glitch… Hope he makes it.
Maverick: Boy, for our sake, I hope he does too. I get the feeling that data he’s carrying ain’t gonna cut it.
Hawk: Yeah, it’s really thin.
Panther: But he’ll be able to argue his case convincingly.
Maverick: Yeah? What if he argues in front of the wrong people?
Panther: What do you mean?
Maverick: Look, Confed’s a much bigger machine than any of us can possibly imagine. That bastard Seether – and whoever he’s working with – can marshal incredible resources.
Hawk: Sure: mercenaries, pirates, Confed craft, our craft…
Panther: The unmarked ships.
Maverick: Yeah. All without the rest of Confed even knowing about it.
Panther: And, meanwhile, we come off looking like the bad guys.
Hawk: You get pushed, you push back.
Maverick: Uh huh – giving them legitimate cause to gear up for an all-out war.
Panther: The Assembly votes in 5 days…

Mission Briefing (L4A - Catscratch survived)

Chart Room, BWS Intrepid.

Maverick: All right, Lieutenant.
Sosa: I’ve given Admiral Wilford a report of what occurred during the last mission, sir. He indicates that another convoy is now moving through the supply line, and there are re-targeting plans in the works.
Maverick: The same mission, in other words.
Dekker: One more time in the spam-cans.
Sosa: Well, you have another option, Colonel. The Admiral is launching a direct attack on the shipyard. Now, some Confed pilots have indicated they wish to defect – they’ll need cover. Now, the first wave from our fleet will be clearing a path, but our task would be escorting the defecting pilots back to the Intrepid.
Maniac: Well. It won’t be easy telling them from the enemy.
Hawk: We could use those fighters.
Sosa: Colonel, the Admiral feels you’re in the best position to decide which operation makes the best use of the Intrepid’s resources.
