Preflight Conversations

Talk to SHOTGLASS

Hello, Maverick. Drinks are on the house today.

I don't really have anything much to celebrate, y'see.

I was holdin' onto this faint hope that my cousin Zach had made it...

... that somehow he was alive, hiding out on that Drayman.

I knew it wasn't true, but I couldn't stop thinking about it.

It was making me crazy, but now I know the truth.

It's all over. Zach is dead.

As dead as everyone else on Goddard. So the drinks are on me---

---until we're all too drunk to think.

Talk to BOSSMAN

Good morning, Maverick. I've been thinking about the Gwenhyvar...

Todd Marshall

Bossman keeps tellin' that the Phantom Exeter is real.

Kien Chen

There are a lot of ships who've flown missions and never been heard from again....

...with no Kilrathi ships in the area, only our own.

That's why I think the Gwenhyvar is real...

...and she's out there, somewhere.

Todd Marshall

And I think you're nuts, Boss.

Bossman

And you're supposed to be sane, Maniac?

Talk to MANIAC

Hey, Maverick. Still alive?

I was certain you were going to die out there today.

We're all going to die, you know. It's just a matter of time.

But I know I'm being saved for something. Something wonderful.

Everyone here teases me because I'm such a hot pilot, and I'm not afraid to say it.

But they'll see. They'll all see...

...and they'll remember ME as the man who aced the Kilrathi secret weapon.

Won't that be great?

Mission Briefing

The Commander checks his notes, then speaks

Peter Halcyon

Yesterday's mission, though crucial, tipped off the Kilrathi to our presence.

They don't know the size of our fleet, and they can't be sure...

... that we're actually following them. Let's try to keep it that way.

Lady Luck is riding with us, though. The Reavers operating in this area...

...have captured an intact Dralthi class fighter.

They're flying her back to the Claw for our techs and intel boys.

There's a lot of Kilrathi tactical data in that ship, pilots.

That data could make the difference for us. I need someone to escort it in.

Christopher Blair

I know I can do it, Colonel.

Peter Halcyon

Okay. Maverick, you're Gamma Wing. Pick your wingman.

Christopher Blair

I'll fly with Bossman again, sir.

Peter Halcyon

Fine. Here's the setup.

Head to the rendezvous point via Nav 1.

Nav 2 is your real destination. Make sure there's no danger for our Dralthi fighter...

...who will meet you there. Escort him home.

One thing. Tactical recommends that Nav 1 should be avoided for the trip home.

You are to return by way of Nav 3 and use the asteroids for cover.

Good luck, Maverick. Squadron dismissed.
