Shadow: Wow, this is amazing!
Rico: You said it Shadow!
Shadow: I mean the way that light reflects off the walls, that eerie blue, glow it's really cool!
Viper: Seriously Shadow? I mean you are Shadow...but even you can see the amazing mystery of the creature in front of us!
Rico: Oh, he will, give him a few seconds.
Shadow: HOLY SHIT THERE IS A BLUE FLOATING THING!
Rico: There we go!
Eve: Hello Reclaimers! My, it has been such a long time since I have seen this many of your kind at the same time.
Skippy: Who...what are you?
Eve: I am 007 Jealous Glow, but you can call me Eve.
Rico: Who...built you?...Is built even the right term?
Eve: My creators were a species of highly advanced creatures charged with protecting the galaxy from chaos and strife.
Eve: I was built as an architect for their last attempt to save themselves from a species of highly evasive creatures known commonly as the Flood.
Shadow: What you mean Mexicans?
Rico: Shadow if you bad-mouth my people I will blow your gringo head off.
Viper: You're a Mexican!?
Rico: Uh...Yeah, my name is Hernando Rico, it's kinda a Latino name.
Viper: But...but...your voice and your...well...everything about you.
Rico: I proudly represent La Raza!
Skippy: His great grandfather immigrated to Texas; he's the end result of what happened when Mexicans became American.
Viper: A redneck?
Skippy: The American Way.
Shadow: Hey! Not all Americans are rednecks!
Viper: How am I not surprised that Shadow is an American?
Skippy: The lack of intelligence and general lack of common sense?
Shadow: Go to hell Skippy, besides I'm from a good part of America. I'm from California!
Viper: Ah...so basically you are everything Skippy just described.
Eve: What can I do for you Reclaimers? Is it time to activate the installations already?
Rico: What installations?
Eve: The installations I designed to stop the Flood, I can...
...Reclaimers, are you expecting a visit from Halmat?
Skippy: Who?
Eve: My friend, Halmat.
Viper: You mean that elite who was in here earlier?
Eve: Yes.
Rico: Oh that bastard. Viper, I got a plan to catch this son of a bitch but I am going to need your help.
Halmat: Hello!? Humans!?
Halmat: I am special Operations Commander Isulm'a'Halmat.
Halmat: I am in need of your assistance!
Halmat: Strange...
Eve: (over radio) Halmat!
Halmat: Eve?
Eve: (over radio) I've been captured by the Reclaimers!
Eve: They say they are going to take me apart and study me!
Halmat: Don't worry Eve, I will stop them! Where are you?
Eve: (over radio) The containment facility in their "blue" section.
Eve: Halmat!
Halmat: How are they holding you here Eve?
This hardly seems like the kind of...facility that could hold one of your power.
Eve: They activated the ancient field designed to keep constructs from wandering too far from their positions.
Eve: The only way to deactivate it is if something with the proper biomass inputs the right code.
Halmat: Where is the panel?
Eve: In here along the wall.
Rico: I seem to remember you not liking one of these, so I figured two should keep you in line.
Viper: Thanks Eve.
Eve: I do not like tricking my friends.
Halmat: Why then Eve!?
Eve: It's my programming; I have to obey their commands. They are Reclaimers.
Rico: Maybe tall, mean, and ugly here can tell us just exactly what that means.
Halmat: I am not your enemy.
Viper: You snuck in here once, knocked me out, and are here once more.
Viper: I don't know many friends who do that.
Rico: Except for Shadow.
Viper: Except for Shadow.
Halmat: Like I said...I am not your enemy...well any more.
Halmat: I have been betrayed by my own people!
Rico: Likely story. We'll figure out if you're telling us the truth soon enough.
Rico: Viper, stand guard at the entrance while I make sure Shadow hasn't killed Skippy yet.
Viper: You took away all his rockets and bullets, how could he kill...
Shadow: (over the radio) Whoa, whoa, whoa there girl! Please stop!
Skippy: (over the radio) Shadow, get off Betsy right now!
Viper: How do you always know?
Rico: Live here long enough and you'll start figuring these things out.
Halmat: Where is the other human?
Rico: You killed them both.
Halmat: I only killed the loud, idiotic one.
Viper: You didn't kill both of the reporters?
Eve: Are you talking about that other Reclaimer?
Eve: I saw her leave right after Halmat pulled the skull out of...
Rico: Where did she go!?!
Eve: She existed south-east.
Rico: Crap!
Viper: Wait, where are you going?
Rico: Green Lantern!
Lauren: I know you're here Sergeant.
Rico: Oh, actually it's Lieutenant now.
Lauren: Doesn't change your mission here though, am I right?
Rico: You found Green Lantern, so I have failed the first part of my mission.
Lauren: And the second?
Rico: You know full well the second.
Lauren: Im not going down with out a fight.
Lauren: This is the kind of story that could get me millions,
Lauren: my own book deal, hell I could probably spend the rest of my life touring the universe
Lauren: with speech tours and never having to do another puff piece or a heartfelt bullshit story again!
Rico: Well, from where I am standing the rest of your life is about the next 10 seconds.
Rico: Use them wisely.
Lauren: Not if I get you first.
Rico: Seriously? (laughs)
Rico: Do you know who I am?
Rico: Do you know what I go through here on a daily basis?
Rico: Im like a one man army!
Rico: A one man killing machine!
Rico: I am the only natural predator of ninjas!
Rico: Do you really think that...peashooter can stop me!?
Lauren: With all that armor and training you've still got weakness...
Lauren: Weaknesses every man has.
Lauren: I may not be able to kill you with this, but...
Rico: Ughhhh!
Lauren: ...I can stop you.
Halmat: Why do you fight?
Viper: Excuse me?
Halmat: You, why do you fight? Why fight a war for existence?
Viper: Of all the aliens we could have caught, we get a damned E.T. Aristotle, just my luck.
Halmat: What? Does your species not ask questions?
Viper: I'm not really in the mood to have enlightening conversations about the meaning of life, the universe, and everything right now.
Halmat: 42
Viper: What?
Halmat: 42, that's the answer to the question.
Viper: You're a comedian now huh? Where did you pick that up anyways?
Halmat: Your radio conversations.
Halmat: Since I had little to do in my stay here I listened to them talk about everything from telemetry to Ptolemy.
Halmat: You're a fascinating race. I have learned much in my seclusion here.
Halmat: But no matter what I did I couldn't figure out why, why your species was so keen on expanding, exploring, and staying alive.
Viper: You're seriously confused as to why we have a survival instinct?
Halmat: Well, yes. Your major religions believe in an after life, a world better then your own.
Halmat: Most of them preach peace and obedience to strict laws that include limitation of violence.
Halmat: Your science even tells you that life is brutal, fleeting, and short.
Halmat: So why do you strive so hard to stay alive, thrive, and explore if your entire culture contradict these things?
Viper: If I tell you will you stop asking me questions?
Halmat: If you tell me, I promise not to make you answer any more questions ever!
Viper: Fine then...Whiskey.
Halmat: Excuse me?
Viper: Whiskey.
Halmat: An inebriating beverage?
Halmat: You're walking contradictions because of a drink that can kill you?
Viper: I'm sorry, our agreement was that I didn't have to answer any more questions.
Halmat: That's no fair! You didn't answer anything!
Viper: Yes I did. I answered your question.
Viper: You're the genius philosopher. You figure it out on your own.
Shadow: (over radio) Viper, what's your status?
Viper: Just confusing the alien with answers about human will.
Shadow: (over radio) Well, we need to do a bit more then confuse these aliens, have you heard from Rico?
Viper: Not for an hour... Why?
Shadow: We got something he needs to handle up here.
