INT. MIDWAY - BRIEFING ROOM - MISSION (I6A)

BEGIN on main screen and a CUTAWAY DIAGRAM of the WORMHOLE GATE. Its TOWERS
are HIGHLIGHTED as we hear...

FINLEY
(OS)
The Wormhole Gate is generated by four
heavily shielded stabilizing towers
which hold the space-time rift open.

PULL BACK to INCLUDE the CAG, Finley, and a roomful of attentive pilots. Colonel Dekker
is also in attendance.

FINLEY
(CONT)
By destroying all four Towers, the
Wormhole can be made to collapse...

She breaks off as Blair ENTERS with the Captain.

CAPTAIN
I have an announcement to make. After
much discussion...
(a look at the CAG)
... and due to the fact we are so short
of veteran pilots, I've decided to
return Colonel Blair to full flight
status.

The CAG is not happy about this, but everyone else gives Blair a standing
ovation. He waves off the applause.

BLAIR
Enough, enough. We have a war to fight,
you know.

The CAG controls her feelings; continues the briefing.

CAG
The Midway will retreat to a safe
distance, drawing the enemy's attention
while two Vampires escort a Marine LC
to the Gate's Command Center... Check
your ICISs.

They do..

They look up.

CAPTAIN
The only question is, who will fly the
Vampires...

Before he can even ask for volunteers, every pilot in the room steps
forward; including Blair and even Maniac. The Captain smiles; proud of his
people. Makes his choices.

CAPTAIN
Casey, Maestro, Stiletto, Spyder. Be
prepared to lift off. (*Rework)

Blair exchanges a long look with the CAG. It's clear she's relieved; and
he's disappointed.
