Captain Shane Vansen: Move it!
1LT Cooper Hawkes: Go!
Lt. Colonel T.C. McQueen: Enemy has achieved air superiority over the airstrip. Do not dispatch any further squadrons until so ordered.
General Weirick: The Chigs must have pulled their forces from another position.
General Alcott: Frankly, sir, Intelligence is not sure.
General Weirick: Admiral. Clear the room. Clear the room. As you were, Colonel.
Admiral Broden: Gentlemen, we find ourselves in the midst of our collective countries' greatest military disaster because of which a door has opened possibly to our greatest achievement. Ixion. A territory of monumental strategic importance being a mere 50 astronomical units from the Chig's home planet. This was so heavily fortified and believed so unobtainable that Earth Force battle plans conceded Ixion to the Chigs.
General Weirick: "Believed"?
Admiral Broden: This communiqué is from the Earth Forces Chiefs of Staff in New York. The alien fleet currently attacking us is from Ixion. They're using the Ixion forces to counterattack and have left the planet unprotected.
General Ming: Why would they do that?
General Alcott: They must be spread thinner than we believed. They're gambling to engage us here.
General Weirick: It's hard enough to know the hearts and minds of a human enemy. In any case, their butter becomes our if we don't seize this opportunity. Dispatch the Fourth Fleet to that area instead of bringing it here for support.
Commodore Ross: Sir, without their support, our fight is made all the tougher.
Admiral Broden: General, the Fourth Fleet would never get here in time. Currently, they're 1,400 A.U.'s away. We are closest to Ixion.
Commodore Ross: Our job is not finished here.
Admiral Broden: You said it yourself, Glen. Without support, this fleet is going under. Ixion is infinitely more important than a tiny airstrip on Demios, Commodore.
Admiral Broden: Taking Ixion now would cut two years off the war and could save a million lives.
Commodore Ross: At the expense of 25,000 lives - my lives - fighting down on planet.
General Weirick: Colonel, I know you to be a student of military history. What is your counsel?
Lt. Colonel T.C. McQueen: I would retreat this fleet and then advance to Ixion. The Chig counterattack will be severe. I would send the Fourth Fleet to Ixion as support.
Commodore Ross: The Five-Eight is down there, McQueen.
Lt. Colonel T.C. McQueen: In the Second World War, the Japanese committed their finest troops to protecting the island of Guadalcanal neglecting the strategic importance of New Guinea. Our Marines were on their own for eight months while the Allies exploited the Japanese mistake. It broke the back of the Nippon Offensive. After the Canal, we took the war to them.

Don't you have
more important things to do?
:16:43
Yeah.
:16:45
But I'm not doing them right now.
:16:49
Do we understand each other?.
:16:55
Okay, pal, why the Mohaska?
:16:59
- Why are you packin' the gun?
- I'm a Treasury Officer.
:17:05
All right.
:17:07
Just remember
what we talked about now.
:17:15
Hey... Wait a minute!
:17:17
What the hell kind of police
do you have in this goddamn city?.
:17:21
You just turned your back
on an armed man.
:17:24
- You're a Treasury officer.
- I just told you I was.
:17:28
Who would claim to be that,
who was not?
:17:36
What's your name and unit?
:17:43
It's right here.
:17:47
You got a beef?
What is it?
:17:52
How did you know I had a gun?
:17:56
What do you want,
a free lesson in police work?.
:18:01
No.
:18:06
Are you okay, pal?
:18:10
I had a rough day on the job.
:18:14
- Are you going home now?.
- I was about to.
:18:20
Well, then, you just fulfilled
the first rule of law enforcement.
:18:27
Make sure when your shift is over
you go home alive.
:18:32
Here endeth the lesson.
