Transcript

CAG: So, these are your mission objectives. And if there's no further feedback from Hawk or Maniac? Then you are dismissed. Good luck.

CASEY: You okay?

HAWK: I joined this man's space force to skin Cats, not to hold their paws. I feel like I was better off in the Union of Border Worlds. At least there we knew who our enemies were.

CASEY: Look, Hawk, you like it or not you're going to have to put all this behind you. Like I did with Blair. You taught me that!

HAWK: You ever read the mission report on the day your Dad went KIA? Yeah, he was on a deep space patrol in the B'shriss system when the Kilrathi jumped him. But, one small detail was omitted from that report. Blair found his lifepod. Brought it in. Iceman was inside-- in pieces. The Cats pulled him in, had their fun, and sent him home. Not exactly a hero's death, huh? So, we omitted it from the mission log to spare the family. Trust me, kid. I know you're trying to help. But I owe those Cats a whole lot of payback, and so do you! See you on deck.

SPECIFIC DISMISSAL FOR MISSION F1

So these are the mission
objectives ...And if there's no

CONTINUED:

HAWK (Cont'd)
I feel like I was better off in the
Union of Border Worlds. At least
there we knew who the enemy was.
CASEY
Yeah...us! Hawk, like it or not,
you're going to have to put all
that behind you. Like I did with
Blair. You taught me that.

Hawk controls his anger. Casey might be right...but still! He
decides to come clean with Casey.

HAWK
Ever read the mission report on the
day your Dad went KIA?

(nods)
He was on a deep space patrol in
the B'shriss system when the
Kilrathi jumped him.
HAWK
But there was one small detail
omitted from the report. Blair was
the one who found his lifepod.
Brought it back in. The Iceman was
still inside...in pieces.

Casey is shocked into silence.

HAWK (CONT.)
The Cats pulled him in, had their
fun, and sent him home. Not
exactly a hero's death. We kept it
out of the mission log to spare the
family. (beat) Trust me, kid, I
know you're trying to help. But I
owe the Cats a lot of payback and
so do you. See you on deck.

INT. MIDWAY BRIEFING ROOM MISSION (F1)

The CAG in mid briefing; only the Black Widows in attendance. On the main
screen; we see a CG SHOT of Kilrathi fighters being attacked by alien ships
(Aces?)

CAG
Now that our spy eyes are no longer
being jammed, we're getting a clear
look at the aliens as they tear up a
Kat squadron in this system.

Hawk can't hide his pleasure at the scene on screen.

HAWK
Maybe we should send them a thank-you
note.

The CAG remotes off the screen; glares at Hawk.

CAG
I want you, Hawk, to cover these
Kilrathi fighters and jointly destroy
all available enemy. You will then
escort the surviving Kats to a
rendezvous with one of their Corvettes.
HAWK
You can't be serious.
CAG
Do I look like I'm joking? You have
your orders. The rest of you, check the
loadout specs on your ICISs.

(Run alternate VO recap)

INT. MIDWAY BRIEFING ROOM

Casey and a furious Hawk are the last to leave.

HAWK
I joined this man's space force to skin
Kats; not hold their paws.
CASEY
Whether we like it or not, we're all on
the same side now.

Hawk controls his anger; decides to come clean with Casey about some very
hard facts.

HAWK
Ever read the mission report on the day
your Dad went KIA?

CONTINUED:

CASEY
(nods)
He was on a deep space patrol in the
B'shriss system when the Kilrathi
jumped him.
HAWK
But you missed one small detail. Blair
found his lifepod, and the Iceman was
still inside it. In pieces.

Casey is shocked into silence.

HAWK
(CONT)
The Kats pulled him in, had their fun,
and sent him home. Not exactly a hero's
death. But we kept it out of the
mission report; tried to spare the
family.

Hawk pats a stunned Casey on the shoulder.

HAWK
Trust me, kid. When it comes to the
Kats it's like Blair says. Never give
an inch. Give an inch -- and they'll
try to take the universe.

And as he EXITS; Casey slowly follows.
