Transcript

CAG: Unless we shut down the shields on that last tower...

WILFORD: Casey's wing can't close the gate.

MAESTRO: And an entire enemy fleet will jump in our laps.

BLAIR: We're just going to have to pick up where the Marines left off: fly a guy into the command center. He kills the shields, Casey's wing kills the tower.

MANIAC: Oh, I see this coming a mile away. What we need is a bonafide HERO! Excuse me. Any heroes? NO! Any heroes in the room at all?

BLAIR: You're looking at him.

CAG: Now is not the time.

BLAIR: I've done hard time on one of their ships.

CAG: And you're mad as hell and you want to kick some Alien ass!

BLAIR: I'm the best pilot for the job, and you know it. Patricia.

WILFORD: I think we need him. Now.

CAG: All right. But you're taking two wingmen for backup.

MANIAC: Just like old times.

BLAIR: That's what I was afraid of.

We're just going to have to pick up
where the Marines left off; Fly a
man into the Command Center, here.
He kills the shields and Casey's
wing kills the tower.
MANIAC
Oh...I can see this coming a mile
away.

Maniac starts to ham it up, taking a superman stance and then
shielding his eyes in a mock search.

(CONTINUED)

CONTINUED:

MANIAC
What we need is a bonified HERO!
Excuse me...are there any heroes in
the house?
BLAIR
You're looking at him.

The CAG starts to raise an objection.

CAG
This is not the time--
BLAIR
(over her)
--AND--I've spent some hard time on
one of their ships. I know how to
find my way around--
CAG
And you're mad as hell and want to
kick some alien ass.
BLAIR
I'm the best pilot for the
job...and you know it.

The Captain puts a hand on the CAG's qhoulder. The gesture
speaks volumes.

CAPTAIN
(to the CAG)
Patricia...I think we need him now.

The CAG is torn. But then relents.
