Transcript

LIEUTENANT COLONEL GASH DEKKER: I never met a flyboy who could hump a 60-kilo war-pack across 30 klicks of double-gravity terrain. You guys are soft where it counts.

MAJOR TODD "MANIAC" MARSHALL: Oh, we're soft? Lemme tell you about soft. I took a marine on a little joyride once. I jammed the 'stick, took the skyscraper climb -- eh -- cut the juice, reignited halfway through our fall, I flipped into a bank-and-roll, a little 360. I was just warming up. I look in the back -- the grunt had tossed his cookies, passed out. Just from taking a quarter-G to five G's. The rejects of Space Academy? They make marines.

LIEUTENANT COLONEL GASH DEKKER: What a crock! You guys go for the cockpit because you can't cut it up-close and personal.

MAJOR TODD "MANIAC" MARSHALL: Up-close and personal, I hear marines have no staying power.

LIEUTENANT COLONEL GASH DEKKER: Marines go all night long and then some.

MAJOR TODD "MANIAC" MARSHALL: Not with their sabers extended.

LIEUTENANT COLONEL GASH DEKKER: I'll show you some staying power.

MAJOR TODD "MANIAC" MARSHALL: You want a piece of me? I'll kick your ass.

LIEUTENANT COLONEL GASH DEKKER: Come on!

galley - dekker, maniac -k1 Blair takes a seat at a table where dekker and maniac are in the middle of a heated debate. But he just hangs back and listens --

dekker --I never met a flyboy who could hump a 60-kilo war-pack across 30 klicks of double-gravity terrain. You're soft where it counts.

maniac Lemme tell you about soft. I took a Marine on a little joyride once. I jammed the 'stick, took the skyscraper climb, cut the juice, reignited halfway through our fall, slammed into a gnarly little bank-and-roll, and flipped a 360 -- I was just warmin' up. Looked in the back and found the grunt had tossed his cookies and passed out. Just from going quarter-G to five G's. (beat) The rejects from the Space Academy? They become Marines--

dekker What a load. You guys go for the cockpit 'cause you can't cut it up-close and personal--

maniac (leers) Up-close and personal, I hear Marines have no staying power...

dekker Marines can go all night long and then some--

maniac Not with their sabers extended--

dekker I'm gonna show you some staying power right now--
