Red vs. Blue

"Aiden Price: You are Private Walter Henderson, correct?"

"Leonard Church: A response, from the Director of Project Freelancer. Dear Chairman. While I am obligated to assist your investigation, I ask that you not waste my time with irrelevant questions. My agency is normally unconcerned with such minute directives as troop reassignment. Except of course, in the most critical of matters."

"[Washington approaches the Red Base]"

"Malcolm Hargrove: Dear Director, due to your busy schedule, we have begun interviewing members of your staff. I'm certain you will let us know if this bothers you. However our debriefings keep coming back to a single subject at Outpost 17-B. Can you explain to us what this Meta is, and what your plans are to deal with it?"

"Miller: This here is Special Agent Washington, from Blue Command. He has something fantastic he needs to talk to you about."

"Leonard Church: Dear Chairman. Rest assured we have the situation under control. While the Meta is proving to be an elusive enemy, our Recovery agent is already closing in on it. I expect this incident will reach a conclusion soon, and I will be able to return to my research. Hopefully, without further interruption."

"Church: Caboose? Caboose, is that you?"

"Washington: Come on, let's move out."

"Malcolm Hargrove: Dear Director. We can all understand that the shift from autonomy to oversight can be a difficult adjustment for anyone, but especially someone of your standing. In that spirit, we have attempted to accommodate your brief explanations to our serious inquiries. None the less, I feel compelled to inform you, that even our trust has its limits."

"Caboose: What do you think he'll do for a distraction?"

"Leonard Church: Dear Chairman. The Meta is nothing more than an entity seeking to increase its power, in these confusing days after the war. From my perspective, that seems to be a very common occurrence at the moment."

"Church: Hey, see that purple one? She's on our team. You should help her."

"Washington: Caboose! Toss that grenade! [Throws a frag grenade over the wall]"

"Caboose: I just want everyone to know that I have no problems walking. And I take full responsibility for the grenade incident."

"Malcolm Hargrove: Dear Director. Your program was granted the use of a single artificial intelligence unit, for implantation experiments. Yet, the department records clearly show, multiple agents in the field with implants, during the same timeframes. Surely this must be a logging error, and we anticipate a corrected document soon."

"Washington: Apparently they already have a shortcut on their keyboard for reporting his team kills."

"Command: Recovery One, come in, level zero come in."

"Dellario: I just wanna know why we have wall duty for the third day straight and Tubbs pulls motor pool every time."

"Leonard Church: Dear Chairman, I understand your concern that increased activity will bring increased risks. However, our failsafes are simple but foolproof: a dead or dying agent’s beacon automatically notifies our Recovery team, and we will be on the scene immediately to secure all the military’s property."

"Washington: Look, there’s our cycle. The Meta must be here."

"Malcolm Hargrove: Dear Director. I feel you're avoiding the question. If this target was already in possession of an A.I. unit, how was he able to secure an additional unit from Agent South? Would not that verify, as we indicated earlier, that your program now runs experiments with more than one artificial intelligence? If so, where did these additional A.I. come from? And more importantly, how did your agency procure them?"

"Grif: Don't you think it's ironic that you're about to shoot us because we don't have enough ammo?"

"Red Soldier: Any last words?"

"Simmons: Sarge?"

"Simmons: Shotgun!"
