EDI:
Talon 3, leave me alone.
Lt. Henry Purcell:
Leave you alone? I'm trying to help you!
Lt. Kara Wade:
[
as Wade, Gannon, and Purcell are running out to their jets] I'm out first, boys.
Lt. Henry Purcell:
I'm on that ass!
Lt. Kara Wade:
[
Standing to the right side of the exit hatch to let Purcell and Gannon past her] After you, ladies.
[
Gannon strokes under her chin and she playfully snaps her jaw back at him]
Lt. Ben Gannon:
Captain Marshfield? EDI, did you just turn off Captain Marshfield?
EDI:
[
brief pause] There was nothing left to say.
Capt. George Cummings:
[
as Purcell turns around in shock over getting a fourth wingman in the squadron] What's the problem, Purcell? You look like you just been hit in the gut.
Lt. Henry Purcell:
Well, for one, Captain, we've been flying together for a long time, and it's good; but FOUR is an unlucky number.
Capt. George Cummings:
Unlucky?
Lt. Henry Purcell:
Yeah! It's not a prime number. See, prime numbers can only be divided by one or itself. THREE is a prime number. The Holy Trinity? The thesis and antithesis that come together to form the synthesis...
Capt. George Cummings:
Look! This is not a seminar on metaphysics, son. This is the U.S. Navy. Now we ship out Wednesday at oh five hundred. Dismissed.
Lt. Henry Purcell:
Okay. IF he'd let me finish I was gonna say Three's Company, Three Stooges, Three Musketeers, three-peat, three strikes you're out, "Three Times a Lady".
Lt. Kara Wade:
Three dimensions?
Lt. Henry Purcell:
Three Blind Mice.
Lt. Ben Gannon:
Menage a trois. Don't forget that one. Right?
[
last lines]
Lt. Kara Wade:
Just tell me you love me, you pussy.
Lt. Kara Wade:
You came back for me.
Lt. Henry Purcell:
If I have to, I will blast your aero-elastic ass right out of the sky.
Lt. Ben Gannon:
Don't think, drink!
Lt. Ben Gannon:
[
referring to the possible future replacement of human pilots with artificially-intelligent aircraft] War's terrible. It's meant to be terrible, and if it stops being terrible, what's going to stop us?
Lt. Ben Gannon:
Shit, man. I didn't want for this to happen. I tried for it not to happen; Navy's got rules about it not happening but it's like this force that's got hold of me.
[
pause]
Lt. Ben Gannon:
I love her.
Lt. Kara Wade:
[
mocking] Well you boy's will have to excuse me I have to go pee-pee!
Tim:
[
referring to EDI] He a... downloads songs from the web.
Lt. Ben Gannon:
Yeah, how many?
Tim:
All of them.
Lt. Ben Gannon:
[
laughs] Well you're in a pack of trouble with the record companies there, son.
Lt. Henry Purcell:
[
as he is chasing EDI in the canyon] Look, I was the only one to defend you, but if you make me I will blast your areoelastic ass right out of the sky! Now lets stop flying around like this, this is crazy!
EDI:
EDI is a Warplane. EDI must have targets.
EDI:
[
Gannon preparing to fire a missile] Talon 1, clarify your intentions.
Lt. Ben Gannon:
You gave me your word, I'm showing you mine.
Dr. Keith Orbit:
Once you design something to learn, you can't put stipulations on *what* it learns! Learn this, but don't learn that? He could learn from Adolf Hitler, he could learn from Captain Kangaroo! It's all the same to him!
Ben's Date:
I'll be back in a sec, I gotta go pee-pee.
