Transcript
COLONEL CHRISTOPHER BLAIR: Everybody here? Let's get to it! I want to start off by saying I'm gonna do my best at running things in Captain Eisen's absence. If any of you ever have any questions or suggestions, I want you to come to me. We'll talk. Don't bitch and moan behind my back. But just remember, I have been given the job of making final decisions. Is that understood?
2ND LIEUTENANT TROY "CATSCRACH" CARTER: Yes, sir.
COLONEL TAMARA "PANTHER" FARNWSORTH: Certainly, Colonel.
COLONEL CHRISTOPHER BLAIR: �Alright, let's get to it then. We've got to move fast on this one people. We've just entered the Pasqual System, and Melek's sources report that one of the Kilrathi planets, �Pasqual X, is under attack.
MELEK: By fighters with Border Worlds insignia.
COLONEL CHRISTOPHER BLAIR: Of course, we all know they are not being flown by Border Worlds pilots. Now my guess is, like everything else we've run into, it's the renegade faction of Confed behind this. Now, the hot spots are in these three nav points. I'll be taking two wingmen up. We're going to clear 'em out. Now remember, they're in ships that look just like ours, so be alert. We don't want any friendly fire casualties here. Well, that's it then. Dismissed.

Shooting Script
A Wing Commander IV shooting script has been digitized from the collection of the University of Texas at Austin. A digital version (extracted below) was posted to Origin's Wing Commander IV website in 1996.
briefing g2: Blair/pilots/Melek - chart room -g2 NOTE: From this point on, Blair will conduct all briefings. He will enter the room and take his place near the wall screen, facing the other primary pilots (established characters). In the case of the following scene, those pilots are: Catscratch, Hawk, Maniac, and Panther.
Occasionally (as is the case with the following scene), one or more other characters will also be present.
Blair enters the chart room and takes his place at the wall screen. He looks at Melek to the side, and across to his flyers: Catscratch, Hawk, Maniac, and Panther.
Blair I want to start off by saying that I'm going to do my best at running things in Captain Eisen's absence. If any of you ever have any suggestions or complaints, come to me and talk. Don't bitch and moan behind my back. Just remember ... I've been given the job of making final decisions. Understood?
overlapping:
Catscratch Yes, sir. Panther Certainly, Colonel.
Hawk nods. Maniac just rolls his eyes.
Blair Then let's get to it. We've got to act fast on this one. (pointing to map) We've just entered the Pasqual System and Melek's sources report that one of the Kilrathi planets here, Pasqual X, is under attack.
Melek By fighters with Border Worlds insignia...
Blair Well, we all know they aren't being flown by Border Worlds pilots. Like everything else we've run into, my guess is that the renegade faction of Confed is behind it. The hot spots are at these three nav points. I'll be taking two wingmen and we're going to clear 'em out. (beat) Remember ... they're in ships that look just like ours. Let's be alert. We don't want any 'friendly fire' casualties. (beat) That's it. Dismissed.
