1. Young people all over the globe
are joining up to fight for the future.
Copy !req
2. - I'm doing my part.
- I'm doing my part.
Copy !req
3. - I'm doing my part.
- I'm doing my part too.
Copy !req
4. They're doing their part.
Are you?
Copy !req
5. Join the Mobile Infantry
and save the world.
Copy !req
6. Service guarantees citizenship.
Copy !req
7. The Bugs send
another meteor our way.
Copy !req
8. But this time we're ready.
Copy !req
9. Planetary defenses
are better than ever.
Copy !req
10. Klendathu, source of the attacks,
orbits a twin-star system...
Copy !req
11. whose brutal gravitational forces...
Copy !req
12. produce an unlimited supply
of Bug meteorites...
Copy !req
13. in the form of this asteroid belt.
Copy !req
14. To ensure the safety
of our solar system...
Copy !req
15. Klendathu must be eliminated.
Copy !req
16. We break net now
and take you live...
Copy !req
17. to Klendathu,
where the invasion has begun.
Copy !req
18. DXQ uplink on.
Two, one, you're on.
Copy !req
19. We've just landed here
on what Cap Troopers...
Copy !req
20. are calling Big K, with the
6th Mobile Infantry Division.
Copy !req
21. It's an ugly planet, a Bug planet.
Copy !req
22. A planet hostile
to life as we know it.
Copy !req
23. Help me!
Copy !req
24. - Die. Die.
- Come on. Go, go!
Copy !req
25. - Keep moving.
- Get out of here now.
Copy !req
26. Get down!
Copy !req
27. Oh, God.
Copy !req
28. Rico.
Copy !req
29. Rico!
Copy !req
30. Pay attention.
Copy !req
31. Sorry, Mr. Rasczak.
Copy !req
32. Let's sum up.
Copy !req
33. This year we explored
the failure of democracy...
Copy !req
34. how the social scientists brought
our world to the brink of chaos.
Copy !req
35. We talked about the veterans,
how they took control...
Copy !req
36. and imposed the stability that
has lasted for generations since.
Copy !req
37. You know these facts.
Copy !req
38. But have I taught you
anything of value this year?
Copy !req
39. You. Why are only citizens
allowed to vote?
Copy !req
40. It's a reward.
What the Federation gives you...
Copy !req
41. - ... for doing Federal Service.
- No. No.
Copy !req
42. Something given has no value.
Copy !req
43. Look, when you vote,
you are exercising political authority.
Copy !req
44. You're using force.
Copy !req
45. And force, my friends, is violence.
Copy !req
46. The supreme authority from which
all other authority is derived.
Copy !req
47. My mother says violence
never solves anything.
Copy !req
48. Really?
Copy !req
49. I wonder what the city fathers
of Hiroshima would say about that.
Copy !req
50. You.
Copy !req
51. They probably wouldn't
say anything.
Copy !req
52. - Hiroshima was destroyed.
- Correct.
Copy !req
53. Naked force has resolved
more issues...
Copy !req
54. throughout history
than any other factor.
Copy !req
55. The contrary opinion,
that violence never solves anything...
Copy !req
56. is wishful thinking at its worst.
Copy !req
57. People who forget that
always pay.
Copy !req
58. Rico, what's the moral difference,
if any...
Copy !req
59. between a civilian and a citizen?
Copy !req
60. A citizen accepts responsibility
for the safety...
Copy !req
61. of the body politic,
defending it with his life.
Copy !req
62. - A civilian does not.
- The exact words of the text.
Copy !req
63. But do you understand it?
Do you believe it?
Copy !req
64. I don't know.
Copy !req
65. Of course you don't.
I doubt anyone here...
Copy !req
66. would recognize civic virtue
if it reached up and bit you in the ass.
Copy !req
67. This is the end of period three.
Copy !req
68. Period four begins in five minutes.
Copy !req
69. Remember, all graduating seniors
must fill out a 7-10 form.
Copy !req
70. Not here.
Copy !req
71. Come on. Let's see if
they posted the math final.
Copy !req
72. - Rico, we gonna take Tesla?
- We're gonna kill them.
Copy !req
73. Remember, all graduating seniors
must fill out...
Copy !req
74. First thing Fleet Academy
looks at is your math scores.
Copy !req
75. Wish me luck.
Copy !req
76. Just wait a minute.
Copy !req
77. - Hey, way to go.
- Good job.
Copy !req
78. Your turn. Hold on.
Copy !req
79. I wanna talk to Marco.
His sister's at Fleet.
Copy !req
80. - Marco.
- Hi, Carmen.
Copy !req
81. - What'd you hear about Roxy?
- She made pilot.
Copy !req
82. She did?
Copy !req
83. Thirty-five percent. Very nice.
Copy !req
84. Look at that.
Copy !req
85. Thirty-five percent,
ladies and gentlemen.
Copy !req
86. - Big numbers.
- Carl.
Copy !req
87. Sorry.
Copy !req
88. So you haven't done it yet,
have you? Don't lie.
Copy !req
89. I'm not in any hurry.
Copy !req
90. Others are waiting.
Copy !req
91. - Did you read her mind?
- Don't have to. I know what she wants.
Copy !req
92. Yeah, but I want Carmen.
Copy !req
93. You got it bad.
Hey, don't forget about this afternoon.
Copy !req
94. He's always late when he walks
you home to fish for a kiss.
Copy !req
95. Get out of here.
Copy !req
96. - Marco's sister made pilot.
- So will you.
Copy !req
97. I mean, imagine flying
a half a million tons of starship.
Copy !req
98. You gotta have nerves of steel.
Copy !req
99. - You do. Let's see how yours hold up.
- You may begin.
Copy !req
100. Come on. It's just a Bug.
Copy !req
101. - Better put your goggles on.
- "Just a Bug."
Copy !req
102. We humans like to think
we are nature's finest achievement.
Copy !req
103. I'm afraid it just isn't true.
Copy !req
104. This Arkellian Sand Beetle
is superior in many ways.
Copy !req
105. It reproduces in vast numbers...
Copy !req
106. has no ego, has no fear,
doesn't know about death...
Copy !req
107. and so is the perfect,
selfless member of society.
Copy !req
108. But humans have created art,
mathematics and interstellar travel.
Copy !req
109. True, but before you
let that go to your head...
Copy !req
110. take the example
of the Arachnids...
Copy !req
111. a highly evolved
insect society.
Copy !req
112. By human standards,
they are relatively stupid...
Copy !req
113. but their evolution stretches
over millions of years.
Copy !req
114. - And now...
- Here, take this.
Copy !req
115. they can colonize planets...
Copy !req
116. by hurling their spore into space.
Copy !req
117. Yeah, I think we got it.
Copy !req
118. There's the heart...
Copy !req
119. and here's the stomach.
Copy !req
120. Nerves of steel, huh?
Copy !req
121. Don't think about it.
Just go on instinct.
Copy !req
122. Try to visualize it.
Copy !req
123. I see the ace of spades.
Copy !req
124. Statistically speaking...
Copy !req
125. you should have accidentally
guessed right by now.
Copy !req
126. - Try another.
- So my psychic abilities...
Copy !req
127. are zero and I'm unlucky.
Copy !req
128. No, luck's not a factor.
Copy !req
129. No one really knows why some
are sensitive and some aren't.
Copy !req
130. Who knows? Maybe it's
a new stage of human evolution.
Copy !req
131. That's why they do
these kind of federal studies.
Copy !req
132. But, Cyrano— Shit. Time-out.
Copy !req
133. He just wants some attention.
You don't play with him anymore.
Copy !req
134. Cyrano.
Copy !req
135. Go bug Mom, Cyrano.
Copy !req
136. How do you make him do that?
Copy !req
137. I gave him the impression there's
a grub crawling up my mom's leg.
Copy !req
138. He's on a mission to go eat it.
Copy !req
139. Get off my leg!
Copy !req
140. Carl!
Copy !req
141. I sure hope you don't do
anything like that to me.
Copy !req
142. Don't be afraid. Can't do human.
Copy !req
143. Yet.
Copy !req
144. All right.
Copy !req
145. Yeah! Yeah!
Copy !req
146. Touchdown, Tigers.
And the score is now 41 to 38.
Copy !req
147. Tigers lead with 2:46 remaining here
at the Buenos Aires Sports Arena.
Copy !req
148. - Time-out, Giants.
- Are you all right?
Copy !req
149. Much better...
Copy !req
150. - ... now.
- Good.
Copy !req
151. Way to go, team!
Copy !req
152. Hey, your helmet.
Copy !req
153. So, what are you doing
after the game?
Copy !req
154. Well, everyone's going to the dance.
Aren't you?
Copy !req
155. - It's my last night as a civilian.
- Number 12, let's go.
Copy !req
156. - Ship off to Tereshkova tomorrow.
- You're going to the Fleet Academy?
Copy !req
157. - That's where I wanna go.
- Come on, number 12. Let's play ball.
Copy !req
158. Don't get any ideas
about my girlfriend.
Copy !req
159. All is fair in love and war.
Copy !req
160. - Giants, Giants!
- Johnny. Yeah.
Copy !req
161. Hut, hut.
Copy !req
162. Giants lead 43 to 41.
Just over 42 seconds remaining.
Copy !req
163. Time is running out
for the Buenos Aires Tigers.
Copy !req
164. Let's go.
Irving, Latham, cover the rook.
Copy !req
165. Perry, fake left.
Ricoli, you go long.
Copy !req
166. Rico, flip six, three hole.
Got it?
Copy !req
167. - Hey. Rico. Hey!
- What?
Copy !req
168. You're drifting.
Flip six, three hole on one. Got it?
Copy !req
169. Just throw me the ball, Diz.
Copy !req
170. Ready? Break.
Copy !req
171. Down. Set.
Copy !req
172. - Flank left.
- Screen.
Copy !req
173. Hut.
Copy !req
174. Go, go, go!
Copy !req
175. All right!
Copy !req
176. He's in there. It's over.
Copy !req
177. Who said you could grow up
so fast?
Copy !req
178. Mom, don't get mushy.
Copy !req
179. This came for you today.
I presume, at your request.
Copy !req
180. A lot of my friends
are doing Federal Service.
Copy !req
181. Why, you're not thinking
of applying?
Copy !req
182. Have you lost your mind?
Copy !req
183. I'd rather take 10 lashes in Public
Square than see you ruin your life.
Copy !req
184. It's a term of service.
Copy !req
185. It's not a career.
Copy !req
186. I just wanna get out on my own.
Copy !req
187. See the galaxy
for a couple of years.
Copy !req
188. Johnny, people get killed
in the Federal Service.
Copy !req
189. Who gave you this idea?
It's that teacher, isn't it?
Copy !req
190. What's his name?
Copy !req
191. You know the one
I'm talking about.
Copy !req
192. Mr. Rasczak.
Copy !req
193. Rasczak?
Copy !req
194. Silly name.
Copy !req
195. There should be a law against
using a school as a recruiting station.
Copy !req
196. No, Rasczak doesn't
do that at all.
Copy !req
197. He sort of discourages you.
Copy !req
198. Well, that's good...
Copy !req
199. because you're going to Harvard
and that's the end of it.
Copy !req
200. It's my decision, not yours.
Copy !req
201. - Oh, is that how it is, huh?
- Wait, you two.
Copy !req
202. Dad and I have a surprise
for you that will settle this.
Copy !req
203. Can you guess what it is?
Copy !req
204. No.
Copy !req
205. You wanted
to see the galaxy?
Copy !req
206. How about a trip
to the Outer Rings?
Copy !req
207. Zegema Beach, huh?
Copy !req
208. - I've always wanted to go there.
- Good, good, then it's all settled.
Copy !req
209. - Excuse me.
- Sure. Don't go away.
Copy !req
210. I'm just gonna
go see Mr. Rasczak.
Copy !req
211. Hey, Rico, you wanna dance?
Copy !req
212. Actually, Diz, I promised Carmen—
Copy !req
213. Come on. Too bad for her
if she's not around.
Copy !req
214. You know, it's sad.
After tonight, most of us...
Copy !req
215. probably won't
see each other again.
Copy !req
216. So you still gonna play for Rio?
Copy !req
217. Yeah, looks like,
unless Tokyo lets me start.
Copy !req
218. Well, anyone who gets you is lucky.
Copy !req
219. Johnny, how come
we never got together?
Copy !req
220. Can't we just be friends, Diz?
Copy !req
221. Sure.
Copy !req
222. Look, Diz,
I wanna talk to Mr. Rasczak.
Copy !req
223. You better hurry up
if you wanna catch him.
Copy !req
224. You're the best.
Copy !req
225. - Mr. Rasczak.
- What is it, Rico?
Copy !req
226. I wanna thank you. Your class
was the best one I had this year.
Copy !req
227. It's not my job to please.
I just hope you learned something.
Copy !req
228. Well, I wanna join up. I think I got
what it takes to be a citizen.
Copy !req
229. Good for you. Go find out.
Copy !req
230. Well, my parents are against it.
And I know it's my choice.
Copy !req
231. I was wondering...
Copy !req
232. What would you do
if you were me?
Copy !req
233. Figuring things out for yourself is
the only freedom anyone really has.
Copy !req
234. Use that freedom.
Make up your own mind, Rico.
Copy !req
235. Don't exaggerate.
Copy !req
236. Seriously, I think you have
really beautiful eyes.
Copy !req
237. Johnny.
Copy !req
238. This is Zander.
Copy !req
239. Yeah, we know each other
from the game.
Copy !req
240. No hard feelings?
Copy !req
241. Oh, none at all. We won.
Copy !req
242. Come on, Carmen.
Copy !req
243. It's the last dance.
Copy !req
244. - Maybe I'll see you at the Academy.
- Yeah, who knows?
Copy !req
245. Good luck.
Copy !req
246. Zander's going for pilot too.
Copy !req
247. You two have so much in common.
Copy !req
248. Johnny Rico, are you jealous?
Copy !req
249. Well, maybe.
Copy !req
250. You don't have to be jealous.
Copy !req
251. Hey, hey, break it up, you two.
There's a place for that sort of thing.
Copy !req
252. I've been thinking,
and I'm gonna do it, Carmen.
Copy !req
253. I'm gonna go
for Federal Service.
Copy !req
254. That's great. Carl and I are signing
up tomorrow. Come with us.
Copy !req
255. I will.
Copy !req
256. My father's not home tonight.
Copy !req
257. —of my own free will...
Copy !req
258. after having been
duly advised and warned...
Copy !req
259. of the meaning and consequences
of this oath...
Copy !req
260. enroll in the Federal Service
for not less than two years...
Copy !req
261. and as much longer
as may be required...
Copy !req
262. by the needs of the Federation.
Copy !req
263. - All set.
- Thank you.
Copy !req
264. Fresh meat for the grinder, eh?
Copy !req
265. - So how'd you kids do?
- I'm gonna be a pilot.
Copy !req
266. Well, good for you. We need
all the pilots we can get.
Copy !req
267. - Hey, did you get Starside R&D?
- No.
Copy !req
268. - I don't believe it.
- I got Games and Theory.
Copy !req
269. Games and Theory?
Copy !req
270. - That's military intelligence.
- Way to go, Carl.
Copy !req
271. Next time we meet,
I'll probably have to salute you.
Copy !req
272. What about you, son?
Copy !req
273. - Infantry, sir.
- Good for you.
Copy !req
274. Mobile Infantry made me
the man I am today.
Copy !req
275. All recruits must report to
the Federal Transportation Hub...
Copy !req
276. within 24 hours.
Copy !req
277. Welcome to the adventure
of Federal Service.
Copy !req
278. Let's make a vow.
Copy !req
279. No matter what,
we'll always be friends.
Copy !req
280. I'll go for that.
Copy !req
281. Well, chances are
we'll never see each other again.
Copy !req
282. We'll be millions of light-years
away from each other.
Copy !req
283. But, yeah, sure. Why not?
Copy !req
284. You'll resign.
That's all there is to it.
Copy !req
285. It may look bad, but if that's
the worst you suffer, that's fine.
Copy !req
286. - I won't quit.
- I'm telling you, you will.
Copy !req
287. You're not going back.
You're going on vacation.
Copy !req
288. I am not going on vacation.
I wanna be a citizen.
Copy !req
289. It's my decision.
I made it.
Copy !req
290. You walk out that door, you are cut off,
young man, understand me?
Copy !req
291. All right, that's it. You are cut off!
Copy !req
292. Johnny, why won't you
change your mind?
Copy !req
293. Does citizenship
mean that much to you?
Copy !req
294. Well, yeah, sure.
Copy !req
295. I hope so.
Copy !req
296. Don't ruin your life
over some silly little girl...
Copy !req
297. who wants you to look handsome
in uniform.
Copy !req
298. - Don't talk about Carmen that way.
- Johnny.
Copy !req
299. Your attention, please. Outbound
group 13-A, all-hub 29 connection...
Copy !req
300. Do you have everything?
Great.
Copy !req
301. Johnny.
Copy !req
302. - You're late.
- My dad had to help me pack.
Copy !req
303. Suddenly, he's afraid he's never
gonna see me again or something.
Copy !req
304. It was sweet, but it took forever.
Copy !req
305. Anyway, I guess I'm ready to go.
Copy !req
306. Yeah, me too.
I'm wearing everything I own.
Copy !req
307. I'm sorry your parents were mad.
Copy !req
308. Who cares? The Federation
will give me all I need...
Copy !req
309. for the next two years, right?
Copy !req
310. You talk to Carl?
Copy !req
311. Yeah, he left this morning.
Couldn't say where.
Copy !req
312. Oh, it's exciting, going away.
Copy !req
313. But I'm scared. Aren't you?
Copy !req
314. I'm gonna miss you.
Copy !req
315. I'm gonna miss you too.
Copy !req
316. I love you.
Copy !req
317. Outbound group 94-A, Tereshkova,
all sections...
Copy !req
318. That's me.
Copy !req
319. Just say it once. Try it on for size.
Copy !req
320. I love you.
Copy !req
321. Don't forget to write.
Copy !req
322. I won't.
Copy !req
323. Fully automatic Morita.
Who wants to hold it?
Copy !req
324. - Me, me, me.
- Citizen rule.
Copy !req
325. People making a better tomorrow.
Copy !req
326. A murderer was captured
this morning and tried today.
Copy !req
327. Guilty.
Copy !req
328. death.
tonight at 6.
Copy !req
329. All net, all channels.
Would you like to know more?
Copy !req
330. If you think you're psychic...
Copy !req
331. maybe you are.
Copy !req
332. Federal studies are being
conducted in your community.
Copy !req
333. Would you like to know more?
Copy !req
334. Every school kid knows
that Arachnids are dangerous.
Copy !req
335. However, Mormon extremists
disregarded Federal warnings...
Copy !req
336. and established Port Joe Smith
inside the Arachnid Quarantine Zone.
Copy !req
337. Too late,
they realized that Dantana...
Copy !req
338. had already been chosen
by other colonists:
Copy !req
339. Arachnids.
Copy !req
340. Would you like to know more?
Copy !req
341. - One, two, three, four
- One, two, three, four
Copy !req
342. Most of you will not live
to be in the Mobile Infantry.
Copy !req
343. The trouble is, you are not
good enough the way you are.
Copy !req
344. Hands at your side.
Copy !req
345. Chin up. I am your senior drill
instructor, Career Sergeant Zim.
Copy !req
346. Suck in that gut.
Copy !req
347. Feet together.
Copy !req
348. To think this had to happen to me.
Copy !req
349. What a bunch of apes.
Copy !req
350. No, strike that.
You don't rate that good.
Copy !req
351. Never in my life have I seen—
Copy !req
352. Do you think I'm funny?
Copy !req
353. Do I make you laugh?
Do you think I'm a comedian?
Copy !req
354. - I'm sorry.
- The first words and the last words...
Copy !req
355. out of your stinking holes
will be "sir."
Copy !req
356. - Do you get me?
- Sir, yes, sir.
Copy !req
357. See that armory? Run around it.
Copy !req
358. Run, I said. Run, run.
Copy !req
359. - Bronski, keep pace.
- Move.
Copy !req
360. Now, any time you think
I'm being too tough...
Copy !req
361. any time you think
I'm being unfair...
Copy !req
362. any time you miss your mommy,
quit.
Copy !req
363. You sign form 1240-A,
you grab your gear...
Copy !req
364. you take a stroll down
Washout Lane.
Copy !req
365. - Do you get me?
- Sir, yes, sir.
Copy !req
366. Pathetic. I wonder if there's a handful
of guts in the whole bunch of you.
Copy !req
367. Now...
Copy !req
368. who here thinks they got
what it takes to knock me down?
Copy !req
369. Sir, I guess maybe I do, sir.
Copy !req
370. - You all right, son?
- Sir, yes, sir.
Copy !req
371. It's my arm.
I reckon it's broken, sir.
Copy !req
372. Medic.
Copy !req
373. Pain is in your mind.
Copy !req
374. - Who's next?
- Sir.
Copy !req
375. Recruit Flores
reporting for duty, sir.
Copy !req
376. You specifically requested transfer...
Copy !req
377. from Fort Cronkite
to this training unit?
Copy !req
378. - Sir, I heard it was the best, sir.
- It is the best.
Copy !req
379. But what makes you think
you're good enough?
Copy !req
380. That's the kind of gal
who makes squad leader.
Copy !req
381. That's my job you're talking about.
Copy !req
382. You know, I'd like to kill
Sergeant Zim.
Copy !req
383. Improper attitude. They'll
kick you out for talking like that.
Copy !req
384. Bye-bye. There you go
down Washout Lane.
Copy !req
385. Yep, you either got what it takes,
or you don't.
Copy !req
386. - Hey, there is a line.
- Wait your turn, Ace.
Copy !req
387. Hey. At ease, little soldier.
It's all the same muck.
Copy !req
388. Get in line like everyone else.
Copy !req
389. You got some guts for a rich kid.
Copy !req
390. I guess you and me could be buddies.
What do you say?
Copy !req
391. - I'm honored.
- Hey.
Copy !req
392. Of course you are. Everybody
should have a friend like me.
Copy !req
393. - Come on, Ace, back of the line.
- Come on, back, back, back.
Copy !req
394. - What a jerk, man.
- Tough guy.
Copy !req
395. Hey, Rico, wanna sit together?
Copy !req
396. No, thanks, Diz.
Copy !req
397. What's your malfunction, Rico?
Copy !req
398. You are.
Copy !req
399. I joined up to get out on my own,
and you had to tag along.
Copy !req
400. You think I joined the
Mobile Infantry because of you?
Copy !req
401. You saying you didn't?
Copy !req
402. Hi.
Copy !req
403. Forget about it, Ace.
You don't stand a chance.
Copy !req
404. What makes you think
you'd make squad leader, Rico?
Copy !req
405. Something I got you don't.
Copy !req
406. - You rich kids are all the same.
- It isn't about that.
Copy !req
407. - It's about who's the best.
- Hey.
Copy !req
408. First squad.
Copy !req
409. Sir, I don't understand.
Copy !req
410. Who needs a knife
in a nuke fight anyway?
Copy !req
411. All you gotta do
is push a button, sir.
Copy !req
412. Cease fire.
Copy !req
413. Put your hand on that wall,
trooper.
Copy !req
414. Put your hand on that wall!
Copy !req
415. Damn it.
Copy !req
416. The enemy cannot push a button
if you disable his hand.
Copy !req
417. Medic.
Copy !req
418. Well, we all have
one thing in common.
Copy !req
419. We were all stupid enough
to sign up for Mobile Infantry.
Copy !req
420. Breckinridge, your excuse?
Copy !req
421. Oh, my family's all farmers.
I hate farming.
Copy !req
422. I mean, Mobile Infantry, it's like
pure picnic by comparison.
Copy !req
423. All right, so they grow them big
and dumb on the farm planet, huh?
Copy !req
424. - And pretty.
- I like big.
Copy !req
425. - Djana'D, what about you?
- Oh, I'm going in for politics.
Copy !req
426. And, you know, you gotta be
a citizen for that, so here I am.
Copy !req
427. - You want some responsibility.
- Yeah.
Copy !req
428. Shujimi. Come on,
let's keep it going.
Copy !req
429. I got into Harvard,
but my father says, "Forget it...
Copy !req
430. it'll cost an arm and a leg,"
you know? If I serve...
Copy !req
431. Federation pays my way.
Copy !req
432. I wanna have babies.
Copy !req
433. It's a lot easier to get a license
if you serve, so...
Copy !req
434. I'm going career.
Officer's training. All the way.
Copy !req
435. Future sky marshal.
All right, Rico, your turn.
Copy !req
436. - Who asked you to be so nosy?
- What, I'm the bad guy?
Copy !req
437. I'm gonna be a writer, you know.
A writer's got a right to be nosy.
Copy !req
438. Hey, Flores. You know Rico from
Buenos Aires. What's his story?
Copy !req
439. He's here because of a girl.
Copy !req
440. Lover-boy.
Copy !req
441. - Stand back, he's getting excited.
- He's gonna blow.
Copy !req
442. Is it you?
Copy !req
443. This is where we live.
It's not much, but it's home.
Copy !req
444. Right there, there's my bunk,
where I dream about you every night.
Copy !req
445. Boot's pretty tough.
Copy !req
446. Sometimes I think I won't make it.
Copy !req
447. But then I think about
what you're doing, and I try harder.
Copy !req
448. - Do you mind?
- Try harder, baby, try harder.
Copy !req
449. Who knows? They might
even make me squad leader.
Copy !req
450. Well, I better pack it in.
Copy !req
451. - Write me.
- I love you.
Copy !req
452. I'm gonna kill you guys.
Copy !req
453. - Bye. Write me.
- Bye.
Copy !req
454. Orbit in five, Ibanez.
Copy !req
455. First one there gets to fly.
Copy !req
456. - Locking it down.
- Wait. Wait.
Copy !req
457. Oh, no, not Ibanez again.
She's crazy.
Copy !req
458. Ready, go!
Copy !req
459. Deploying wings.
Copy !req
460. How come you're in
such a good mood, huh?
Copy !req
461. Because today I get to fly that.
Copy !req
462. Pilot Trainee Ibanez
reporting for duty, ma'am.
Copy !req
463. - Take the number two chair, Ibanez.
- Yes, ma'am.
Copy !req
464. - Identify.
- Ibanez, T325A. Clear.
Copy !req
465. What are you doing here?
Copy !req
466. I'm the guy who's gonna teach you
to fly this crate.
Copy !req
467. Assistant instructor.
Copy !req
468. Should I call you "sir"?
Copy !req
469. Only when I give you an order.
Copy !req
470. Prepare for departure.
Copy !req
471. It's amazing,
us running into each other like this.
Copy !req
472. Maybe it's fate.
Copy !req
473. Maybe not. I heard about this crazy
girl coming through the Academy.
Copy !req
474. Solid math,
a little wild on the stick...
Copy !req
475. but a natural.
Copy !req
476. When it turned out to be you, I just
made sure we'd run into each other.
Copy !req
477. Rodger Young cleared for
undocking and departure.
Copy !req
478. All right, Ibanez.
Copy !req
479. - Take her out.
- Yes, ma'am.
Copy !req
480. All systems go.
Copy !req
481. In simulation, my supervisors
could never keep up.
Copy !req
482. Well, this isn't simulation anymore,
so take her out easy, cadet.
Copy !req
483. Yes, sir.
Copy !req
484. Five meters from object.
Copy !req
485. Three meters from object.
Copy !req
486. Clear.
Copy !req
487. Don't exceed port speed.
Copy !req
488. - Or what?
- Or they revoke your flight status.
Copy !req
489. And mine.
Copy !req
490. Your career is in my hands.
Copy !req
491. Steady as she goes, Number Two.
Copy !req
492. - Prepare for warp.
- Yes, ma'am.
Copy !req
493. Number One,
design for Jupiter orbit.
Copy !req
494. All crew, all sections,
stand by to cut in C-drive.
Copy !req
495. Start drive in:
Copy !req
496. - Five, four...
- Five, four...
Copy !req
497. - ... ready, steady...
- ... three, two...
Copy !req
498. - ... go!
- ... one.
Copy !req
499. We're going in! Move!
Copy !req
500. Man, they're defended. No way in.
Copy !req
501. - Flip six, three hole.
- What?
Copy !req
502. Run a flip-six, three-hole play,
and you can score.
Copy !req
503. - Cover me.
- You got it.
Copy !req
504. Now!
Copy !req
505. Thanks, buddy!
Copy !req
506. Bastard!
Copy !req
507. The kid's got some moves.
Copy !req
508. Give him a squad,
see what he can do.
Copy !req
509. Someone's gotta teach you guys
how to play some pool here.
Copy !req
510. Look at him.
Copy !req
511. You ever seen anybody
so pleased with himself?
Copy !req
512. Well, Zim must've had to choose
someone to be his brownnose.
Copy !req
513. All right, where was I? Okay,
watch and learn, watch and learn.
Copy !req
514. I couldn't have done it
without you, Diz.
Copy !req
515. Friends?
Copy !req
516. Friends.
Copy !req
517. - Mail call! Levy.
- Yeah, that's me.
Copy !req
518. - Shujimi.
- Here.
Copy !req
519. - Rico.
- Here.
Copy !req
520. - Breckinridge.
- Here.
Copy !req
521. - Nyla.
- Yeah, here I am.
Copy !req
522. Oh, great, my dad.
Copy !req
523. That's all, folks.
Copy !req
524. Hi, Johnny.
Copy !req
525. I'm sorry I haven't written you
sooner, but...
Copy !req
526. - ... it's been really busy.
- Oh, Rico, you don't deserve that.
Copy !req
527. They must've made you
squad leader by now.
Copy !req
528. And if they haven't,
tell them to talk to me.
Copy !req
529. See? All it takes is the love
of a good woman.
Copy !req
530. That is a woman.
Copy !req
531. - Look at that.
- Look at that.
Copy !req
532. - Stop it.
- Isn't it beautiful?
Copy !req
533. I love it out here.
Copy !req
534. That's also the problem.
Copy !req
535. Because...
Copy !req
536. I think I'm gonna go career.
Copy !req
537. I wanna command...
Copy !req
538. a ship of my own, and,
you know...
Copy !req
539. I don't think that's gonna leave
a lot of room for you and me, Johnny.
Copy !req
540. - Oh, God.
- Jeez.
Copy !req
541. I know that's not
what you wanted to hear.
Copy !req
542. But...
Copy !req
543. I have to follow my heart.
Copy !req
544. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
545. Write me, all right?
Copy !req
546. Write me so that I know
we'll always be friends.
Copy !req
547. Funny how they always wanna be
friends after they rip your guts out.
Copy !req
548. Yeah.
Copy !req
549. Well, that's what I deserve.
Copy !req
550. What are you talking about?
Copy !req
551. I joined up for her.
Copy !req
552. I wouldn't even be here
if it wasn't for her.
Copy !req
553. What are you talking about?
You made squad leader on your own.
Copy !req
554. And, hey, you still got me
to kick around.
Copy !req
555. Fun and games are over,
children!
Copy !req
556. You will be firing live ammunition
in a simulated combat environment.
Copy !req
557. You will exercise extreme caution
on my assault course.
Copy !req
558. Do you get me?
Copy !req
559. Sir, yes, sir!
Copy !req
560. Rico, take them out.
Copy !req
561. First fire team with me.
Next team in 10 seconds.
Copy !req
562. Maximum score has been 280.
Copy !req
563. I expect you to do better!
Copy !req
564. Go!
Copy !req
565. Stay low! Keep moving!
Copy !req
566. Shujimi, stay down!
Copy !req
567. Hey! Goddamn it, Breckinridge!
Copy !req
568. Clear my line of fire!
Copy !req
569. It's my helmet. It's all screwed up.
Copy !req
570. - You're gonna blow the score!
- Man!
Copy !req
571. - Dumbshit.
- Diz, stay put! What's the problem?
Copy !req
572. Damn thing keeps getting in my way!
Copy !req
573. Whenever something goes
wrong, it's always you.
Copy !req
574. - Must be because I'm big and dumb!
- Yeah, right!
Copy !req
575. Medic!
Copy !req
576. Rico, you are relieved
of squad command!
Copy !req
577. Rico, did you give the recruit
permission to remove his helmet?
Copy !req
578. He reported a helmet malfunction,
and I asked him to show it to me, sir.
Copy !req
579. Are you rated to repair
the M-3 tactical helmet, Rico?
Copy !req
580. Sir, no, sir.
Copy !req
581. Then why did you order your man to
remove it during a live-fire exercise?
Copy !req
582. Sir, I needed everyone
in my squad operational, sir.
Copy !req
583. I wanted to win, sir.
Copy !req
584. Sergeant, we've already lost
two recruits over this incident.
Copy !req
585. Do you think there's any possibility
of salvaging this man?
Copy !req
586. Yes, sir, I do.
Copy !req
587. All right.
Copy !req
588. We'll try administrative punishment.
Copy !req
589. Prisoner, halt.
Copy !req
590. Bite down on this, son.
Copy !req
591. It helps.
Copy !req
592. I know.
Copy !req
593. For incompetence of command...
Copy !req
594. for failure to abide
by safety regulations...
Copy !req
595. during a live-fire exercise...
Copy !req
596. for negligence which contributed
to the death of a teammate...
Copy !req
597. Recruit Trainee John Rico...
Copy !req
598. is sentenced
to administrative punishment.
Copy !req
599. Ten lashes.
Copy !req
600. You may carry out the sentence.
Copy !req
601. One!
Copy !req
602. Two!
Copy !req
603. Three!
Copy !req
604. Four!
Copy !req
605. Five!
Copy !req
606. Six!
Copy !req
607. Seven!
Copy !req
608. Eight!
Copy !req
609. Nine!
Copy !req
610. Ten!
Copy !req
611. All sections secure.
EBX is high-normal.
Copy !req
612. Switch to Slave on my mark.
Copy !req
613. Mark.
Copy !req
614. Thanks. You read my mind.
Copy !req
615. Third watch always seems
to last forever.
Copy !req
616. I don't know.
Copy !req
617. It depends on who
you're spending it with.
Copy !req
618. Something's wrong.
Copy !req
619. - There.
- No.
Copy !req
620. I replotted the course.
Copy !req
621. It's more efficient this way.
Copy !req
622. Three weeks aboard a starship,
and you think you can lick my navs?
Copy !req
623. Check it.
Copy !req
624. You know, I was talking
with Captain Deladier...
Copy !req
625. and she said—
Copy !req
626. Don't change the subject.
Copy !req
627. Am I right?
Copy !req
628. Yeah. Yeah, you're right.
Copy !req
629. So, what did the captain say?
Copy !req
630. She thinks we ought
to team up officially...
Copy !req
631. and crew for her.
Copy !req
632. - You and me, huh?
- We're good together, Carmen.
Copy !req
633. We're way ahead of the curve
in every department.
Copy !req
634. I can anticipate you.
Copy !req
635. You know what I want.
Copy !req
636. No.
Copy !req
637. What do you want?
Copy !req
638. There's a gravity field out there.
Copy !req
639. Run a scan.
Copy !req
640. - Sensors on?
- There.
Copy !req
641. - Gravity at 225 and rising.
- Report!
Copy !req
642. We are in the path of an unidentified
object moving toward us at high speed.
Copy !req
643. Profile suggests an asteroid, ma'am.
Copy !req
644. - Impact, six seconds.
- Emergency evasion.
Copy !req
645. Three.
Copy !req
646. Two.
Copy !req
647. Fire!
Copy !req
648. Close compartment 21.
Copy !req
649. Where'd it come from?
Copy !req
650. It came out of the Arachnid
Quarantine Zone, ma'am.
Copy !req
651. Number Four, contact Fleet.
A loose asteroid's headed their way.
Copy !req
652. Communications are down, ma'am.
They're gone.
Copy !req
653. Damage assessment.
Copy !req
654. Hull's compromised.
We're lucky to be alive, ma'am.
Copy !req
655. Luck didn't have anything
to do with it.
Copy !req
656. We have a hell of a flight team.
Copy !req
657. It really stinks, you going.
Copy !req
658. Yeah, well, the Mobile Infantry will
just have to get along without me.
Copy !req
659. I don't get it, Rico.
Copy !req
660. If they didn't want you,
they would've kicked you out.
Copy !req
661. Hey.
Copy !req
662. I joined up for the wrong reasons.
Copy !req
663. I got a guy killed.
I don't have what it takes.
Copy !req
664. Rico.
Copy !req
665. Your call's going through.
Take it there.
Copy !req
666. Hello?
Copy !req
667. Oh, Johnny.
Copy !req
668. - Hi, Mom.
- Bill, pick it up! It's Johnny!
Copy !req
669. - Johnny?
- Dad.
Copy !req
670. - Where's your uniform?
- Bill.
Copy !req
671. It's just good to hear from you.
Copy !req
672. How are you, son?
Copy !req
673. It's not really working out
here for me, Dad.
Copy !req
674. I was thinking—
Copy !req
675. I was hoping it'd be all right
if I came home.
Copy !req
676. Well, of course,
you should come home immediately.
Copy !req
677. I'm sorry. I've been an idiot.
Copy !req
678. Don't talk like that.
You just come on home.
Copy !req
679. Talk things out.
Copy !req
680. We love you, son.
Copy !req
681. - Oh, my, what's that?
- Looks like rain.
Copy !req
682. - This time of year?
- Sure is dark.
Copy !req
683. Terminated due to atmospheric
interference.
Copy !req
684. Please try your call again later.
Copy !req
685. Well, see you.
Copy !req
686. Hey.
Copy !req
687. Take that stroll down Washout Lane,
you're only proving one thing.
Copy !req
688. What's that, Diz?
Copy !req
689. That you don't have
what it takes to be a citizen.
Copy !req
690. Sound off.
Copy !req
691. - Roll out! Roll out!
- What's happening?
Copy !req
692. What's going on?
Copy !req
693. - Hey, Kitten, what's going on?
- War! We're going to war!
Copy !req
694. The devastation we are seeing
is unparalleled.
Copy !req
695. Judging from early estimates,
millions dead, a city in ruins.
Copy !req
696. Is that Geneva?
Copy !req
697. Goddamn Bugs whacked us, Johnny.
Copy !req
698. The meteor was shot
out of orbit by Bug plasma...
Copy !req
699. that derived from Klendathu,
the Arachnid's home planet.
Copy !req
700. Nothing lives in what was
once called "the Latin paradise."
Copy !req
701. Oh, Johnny, that's us.
Copy !req
702. Buenos Aires has been
wiped off the Earth.
Copy !req
703. It's home.
Copy !req
704. The Federal Council met moments
ago and voted unanimously...
Copy !req
705. for mobilization to destroy
the Arachnid threat.
Copy !req
706. - I'm serious, I'll go anywhere.
- We need you here!
Copy !req
707. - I want combat!
- The only way you'll see combat...
Copy !req
708. is if you bust yourself to private.
Get me?
Copy !req
709. Yes, sir, I get you.
Copy !req
710. Sir!
Copy !req
711. What do you want, Rico?
Copy !req
712. I wish to reconsider
my request to drop out, sir.
Copy !req
713. You already signed
your 1240-A, son.
Copy !req
714. - It wouldn't be legal.
- Major, I know it was wrong.
Copy !req
715. I didn't learn from one mistake,
and I made another, sir.
Copy !req
716. You made your decision, son.
Copy !req
717. Sir, my family...
Copy !req
718. My whole family
was in Buenos Aires, sir.
Copy !req
719. Is this your signature, Rico?
Copy !req
720. Sir, yes, it is, sir.
Copy !req
721. It doesn't look like it to me.
Copy !req
722. - Carry on, private.
- Yes, sir!
Copy !req
723. Out of the ashes of Buenos Aires
comes first, sorrow...
Copy !req
724. then anger.
Copy !req
725. The only good Bug is a dead Bug!
Copy !req
726. In Geneva,
the Federal Council convenes.
Copy !req
727. We must meet the threat
with our valor, our blood...
Copy !req
728. indeed, with our very lives...
Copy !req
729. to ensure that human civilization,
not insect...
Copy !req
730. dominates this galaxy
now and always.
Copy !req
731. Sky Marshal Dienes
announces plans...
Copy !req
732. for an offensive
against Klendathu...
Copy !req
733. source of the Bug meteor
that destroyed Buenos Aires.
Copy !req
734. Every day, federal scientists are
looking for new ways to kill Bugs.
Copy !req
735. Your basic Arachnid warrior isn't too
smart, but you can blow off a limb...
Copy !req
736. and it's still 86 percent
combat effective.
Copy !req
737. Here's a tip. Aim for the nerve stem
and put it down for good.
Copy !req
738. Would you like to know more?
Copy !req
739. Everyone's doing their part.
Are you?
Copy !req
740. The war effort needs your effort
at work, at home, in your community.
Copy !req
741. We now break net
and take you live...
Copy !req
742. to Fleet Battle Station
Ticonderoga, deep inside...
Copy !req
743. the Arachnid Quarantine Zone,
where the men and women...
Copy !req
744. of the Federal Armed Services
prepare to attack.
Copy !req
745. DXQ uplink on two, one.
You're on.
Copy !req
746. No one here in the AQZ
knows exactly...
Copy !req
747. when the invasion
of Klendathu will occur.
Copy !req
748. But everyone's talking about it,
and the talk says tomorrow.
Copy !req
749. Here's a bunch of M.I. kids who
look like they eat Bugs for lunch.
Copy !req
750. Yum, yum, yum.
Copy !req
751. You're not worried
about fighting the Arachnids?
Copy !req
752. Shoot a nuke down a Bug hole, you
got a lot of dead Bugs. Am I right?
Copy !req
753. I just hope it's not over
before we get some.
Copy !req
754. Some say the Bugs were provoked
by intrusion of humans...
Copy !req
755. into their natural habitat.
Copy !req
756. That a live-and-let-live policy
is preferable to war with the Bugs.
Copy !req
757. Let me tell you something.
I'm from Buenos Aires...
Copy !req
758. - ... and I say kill them all!
- Yeah! Oh, yeah!
Copy !req
759. - Yeah!
- Oh, yeah!
Copy !req
760. Big bad Bugs, huh?
Copy !req
761. - Hey, guys, we ought to get tattoos.
- Let's all get cut together.
Copy !req
762. - What do I want a tattoo for?
- What? Your skin's too pretty?
Copy !req
763. - Come on, everyone's doing it.
- Hey, Johnny!
Copy !req
764. Johnny Rico.
Copy !req
765. Carmen?
Copy !req
766. At ease. Guess I ought to lose
the hat when I'm off duty.
Copy !req
767. Hi, Diz.
Copy !req
768. Carmen.
Copy !req
769. My mother was right about you.
Copy !req
770. You look great in a uniform.
Copy !req
771. You look pretty good yourself.
Copy !req
772. So, what do you hear?
Copy !req
773. You know about anyone
who made it out of B.A. alive?
Copy !req
774. Most of the time,
I don't think about it.
Copy !req
775. Like it happened to someone else.
Copy !req
776. Then it hits me,
and I can't stop crying.
Copy !req
777. Well, we're still alive.
You've gotta be happy about that.
Copy !req
778. You don't look
very happy to see me.
Copy !req
779. Should I be?
Copy !req
780. Johnny...
Copy !req
781. it's different now.
Copy !req
782. We're at war.
I think what I did...
Copy !req
783. was probably
the best thing for both of us.
Copy !req
784. Everything copasetic, Lieutenant?
Copy !req
785. Zander, you remember Johnny.
Copy !req
786. Zander and I are a flight team now.
Copy !req
787. Yeah, we're the best in the Fleet.
Copy !req
788. I get it.
Copy !req
789. This is the part
that's best for both of us.
Copy !req
790. Don't do me any more favors.
Copy !req
791. - Johnny, wait.
- Forget it. He's Mobile Infantry.
Copy !req
792. See, when you're trained to kill...
Copy !req
793. it just doesn't pay to be polite.
Copy !req
794. You got something to say
about the Mobile Infantry?
Copy !req
795. I think you heard me.
Copy !req
796. You wanna make something of it...
Copy !req
797. private?
Copy !req
798. Not with an officer. No, sir.
Copy !req
799. The M.I. doesn't
mint stupid troopers.
Copy !req
800. - Well, let's disregard rank.
- Zander, please.
Copy !req
801. - Let it go, Rico.
- Everybody hear that?
Copy !req
802. Rank is not an issue here.
Copy !req
803. - Don't do this.
- Let it go.
Copy !req
804. Come on, what's he gonna do?
Copy !req
805. Come on! Come on!
I'm gonna kill you!
Copy !req
806. Guys! Guys! Quit it!
He's not worth it! Come on!
Copy !req
807. Come on!
Copy !req
808. Forget it, Rico.
Copy !req
809. Mobile Infantry and Fleet don't mix.
Come on.
Copy !req
810. Come on, let's go.
Copy !req
811. Jarheads.
Copy !req
812. - Mobile Infantry rules!
- Yeah!
Copy !req
813. Oh, God, that hurts!
Copy !req
814. Hey, well, I got something that might
hurt just a little bit more, buddy.
Copy !req
815. Oh, yeah! We're gonna fight!
And we're gonna win!
Copy !req
816. This is the captain speaking.
All personnel prepare for drop.
Copy !req
817. We are at D minus
three and counting.
Copy !req
818. We are going in with the first wave.
Copy !req
819. Means more Bugs for us to kill.
Copy !req
820. You smash the entire area.
Copy !req
821. You kill anything
that has more than two legs.
Copy !req
822. - You get me?
- We get you, sir!
Copy !req
823. - Plasma, ma'am, from the planet.
- Bug batteries.
Copy !req
824. According to Military Intelligence,
it'll be random and light.
Copy !req
825. - Drop status?
- Drop is 35 percent complete, ma'am.
Copy !req
826. Steady as she goes, Number Two.
Copy !req
827. Remember your training...
Copy !req
828. and you will make it back alive!
Copy !req
829. This isn't random or light.
Copy !req
830. - Someone made a mistake.
- That's it.
Copy !req
831. We're empty, ma'am.
Copy !req
832. Someone made
a big goddamn mistake.
Copy !req
833. Break for high orbit!
Copy !req
834. Go, go, go!
Copy !req
835. - Rockets up!
- Rocket crew, move up.
Copy !req
836. Nuke them!
Copy !req
837. - Levy, Rico.
- Heat them up.
Copy !req
838. - Set.
- Fire!
Copy !req
839. - Follow me!
- Let's go!
Copy !req
840. First Platoon, left flank!
Copy !req
841. Spread out!
Copy !req
842. First and second squads, follow me!
Copy !req
843. - Cover!
- Come with me!
Copy !req
844. Fire!
Copy !req
845. Here they come!
Copy !req
846. Ace, what are we doing?
Copy !req
847. I don't know.
Copy !req
848. Kill them! Kill them all!
Copy !req
849. Come on!
Copy !req
850. Come on! You want some?
Copy !req
851. Here's some! Yeah!
Copy !req
852. Take some of this!
Copy !req
853. Oh, my God!
Copy !req
854. Shujimi!
Copy !req
855. No! No! No!
Copy !req
856. Help! Help!
Copy !req
857. No!
Copy !req
858. God!
Copy !req
859. Let's get out of here!
Copy !req
860. Fall back!
Copy !req
861. What's going on?
Copy !req
862. - You got com?
- It's a general retreat!
Copy !req
863. Back to the boats!
Copy !req
864. We've just landed here on what
Cap Troopers are calling Big K...
Copy !req
865. with the 6th Mobile
Infantry Division.
Copy !req
866. It's an ugly planet, a Bug planet.
Copy !req
867. A planet hostile to life as we—
Copy !req
868. Help me!
Copy !req
869. Split ranks!
Copy !req
870. Come on! Go, go, go!
Copy !req
871. Get out of here now!
Copy !req
872. Kitten, no!
Copy !req
873. Crisis for humankind.
Copy !req
874. Fleet officials admit
they underestimated...
Copy !req
875. the Arachnid's
defensive capability.
Copy !req
876. Accepting responsibility
for Klendathu...
Copy !req
877. Sky Marshal Dienes resigns.
Copy !req
878. His successor,
Sky Marshal Tahat Meru...
Copy !req
879. outlines her new strategy.
Copy !req
880. To fight the Bug...
Copy !req
881. we must understand the Bug.
Copy !req
882. - We can ill afford another Klendathu.
- Would you like to know more?
Copy !req
883. Federal scientists
struggle to explain...
Copy !req
884. the intelligent military actions
of the Arachnids.
Copy !req
885. When a colony reaches
a certain size...
Copy !req
886. 300 generations
or something, it gets smarter.
Copy !req
887. Insects with intelligence?
Have you ever met one?
Copy !req
888. - I can't believe this nonsense—
- Would you wait—
Copy !req
889. This is the most ridiculous
conversation I've ever—
Copy !req
890. Maybe there is some kind of Bug
that we haven't seen yet.
Copy !req
891. A leadership caste. A hive brain.
Copy !req
892. Brain Bugs?
Frankly, I find the idea...
Copy !req
893. of a Bug that thinks offensive.
Copy !req
894. Ticonderoga, this is Rodger Young
requesting approach vector.
Copy !req
895. Affirmative, Rodger Young.
Copy !req
896. One-zero-zero-niner-five-two.
Welcome back.
Copy !req
897. My God.
Copy !req
898. How could this happen?
Copy !req
899. We thought we were smarter
than the Bugs.
Copy !req
900. Give me something, please!
Copy !req
901. It hurts!
Copy !req
902. Help me!
Copy !req
903. It's strange.
There's almost no wounded at all.
Copy !req
904. Bugs don't take prisoners.
Copy !req
905. Oh, no.
Copy !req
906. Carmen.
Copy !req
907. - There he is.
- Come on, we'll just wake him up.
Copy !req
908. Hey, Johnny! Hey!
Copy !req
909. Hey, Rico.
Copy !req
910. - Hey, Johnny!
- Hey, Rico.
Copy !req
911. - Wake up!
- How you doing, fish boy? Look.
Copy !req
912. - You're dead.
- Killed in action!
Copy !req
913. - Three more days.
- Three days.
Copy !req
914. - You're out.
- Good as new.
Copy !req
915. - See you later.
- Bye.
Copy !req
916. Bye.
Copy !req
917. So, what did you hear
about our new unit?
Copy !req
918. Roughnecks killed more Bugs
than any other outfit.
Copy !req
919. Yeah, well, I hear
their Lieutenant's a real nut-buster.
Copy !req
920. Who's top kick?
Copy !req
921. You want the job, huh?
Copy !req
922. I wouldn't mind.
Copy !req
923. I would.
Copy !req
924. - Just doing my part.
- Orders.
Copy !req
925. Yours?
Copy !req
926. - Where you been besides Big K?
- Outer Rings, Zegema Beach.
Copy !req
927. Zegema Beach.
Copy !req
928. - I always wanted to go there.
- Good luck.
Copy !req
929. It's not there anymore.
Copy !req
930. So I hear your Lieutenant's
a real nut-buster.
Copy !req
931. No one talks about
the lieutenant that way.
Copy !req
932. - He saved my life.
- Mine too.
Copy !req
933. - Same for me.
- Me too.
Copy !req
934. Well, sounds like he's quite a guy.
Copy !req
935. Who do you think saved your ass?
Copy !req
936. Stand by.
Copy !req
937. Attention on deck.
Copy !req
938. This is for you new people.
Copy !req
939. I only have one rule.
Copy !req
940. Everyone fights. No one quits.
Copy !req
941. If you don't do your job,
I'll shoot you.
Copy !req
942. - Do you get me?
- We get you, sir!
Copy !req
943. - Welcome to the Roughnecks.
- Rasczak's Roughnecks!
Copy !req
944. At ease. Listen up.
Copy !req
945. Got a new sky marshal
and a new battle plan.
Copy !req
946. We're gonna clean out the systems
outlying Klendathu...
Copy !req
947. one planet at a time.
Copy !req
948. Tomorrow we hit Tango Urilla.
Copy !req
949. After Fleet glasses the planet,
M.I. mops up.
Copy !req
950. Carry on.
Copy !req
951. All right.
Copy !req
952. Spread out! Fire teams!
Copy !req
953. You locate a Bug hole, nuke it.
Copy !req
954. Watkins, take out Flores and Rico.
Copy !req
955. Copy that. Move out.
Copy !req
956. First Platoon,
we're going for that ridge.
Copy !req
957. - Levy, you're with me.
- No, I'm in A squad.
Copy !req
958. - I'm going with Rico.
- Shut up and follow me.
Copy !req
959. Like it like that?
Copy !req
960. Funky, sucking sack of maggot puke.
Copy !req
961. It's dead, Watkins, it's dead!
Copy !req
962. Ain't much to look at after
you scrape them off your boot.
Copy !req
963. Bug hole.
Copy !req
964. There.
Copy !req
965. Nuke them, Rico!
Copy !req
966. Fire in the hole!
Copy !req
967. Watkins, we're under heavy attack.
Position M-4.
Copy !req
968. - Get over here.
- Move!
Copy !req
969. - You got a Bug problem, ma'am?
- Stow it, trooper.
Copy !req
970. Tanker!
Copy !req
971. - Oh, shit!
- Come on, move!
Copy !req
972. Get down!
Copy !req
973. - Call for retrieval.
- Medic!
Copy !req
974. Nice moves.
Copy !req
975. Where'd you learn
how to do that, soldier?
Copy !req
976. Back in school, sir.
Don't you remember?
Copy !req
977. I was captain of the team.
Copy !req
978. - Rico?
- Sir?
Copy !req
979. I need a corporal.
You're it until you're dead...
Copy !req
980. or till I find somebody better.
Copy !req
981. Thank you, sir.
Copy !req
982. - All right, saddle up!
- Way to go, corporal.
Copy !req
983. - I need a squad leader.
- Oh, no.
Copy !req
984. No, I've been there and blew it.
Copy !req
985. I'm just here to fight.
Copy !req
986. What about it, Diz?
Copy !req
987. Looks like I'm your girl, sir.
Copy !req
988. Listen up!
Copy !req
989. I expect the best,
and I give the best.
Copy !req
990. Here's the beer!
Copy !req
991. Here's the entertainment!
Copy !req
992. Have fun! That's an order!
Copy !req
993. Thank you, lieutenant!
Copy !req
994. Rico.
Copy !req
995. You kill Bugs good.
Copy !req
996. Thanks.
Copy !req
997. You knew the lieutenant
before the war.
Copy !req
998. What was he like?
Copy !req
999. He was a teacher.
Kind of like he knew it all.
Copy !req
1000. He always had this little smile.
Copy !req
1001. Yeah, well, he don't
smile much anymore.
Copy !req
1002. Yeah, well, I guess
your bottle fills up quick...
Copy !req
1003. - ... when your kids get smeared.
- Come on.
Copy !req
1004. No, I don't do that anymore.
Copy !req
1005. I remember when you
used to dance. Come on.
Copy !req
1006. Do I have to pull rank?
Copy !req
1007. Excuse me, sir.
Copy !req
1008. Rico.
Copy !req
1009. You once asked me for advice.
Want some now?
Copy !req
1010. - Yes, sir.
- Lieutenant.
Copy !req
1011. HQ is on the com.
Copy !req
1012. Never pass up a good thing.
Copy !req
1013. Watkins.
Copy !req
1014. Beer?
Copy !req
1015. Ace.
Copy !req
1016. So, Rico, what are you doing
after the dance?
Copy !req
1017. What's so funny?
Copy !req
1018. You know, just the way
things work out.
Copy !req
1019. We finally got together, Diz.
Copy !req
1020. I love you, Johnny.
Copy !req
1021. Rico.
Copy !req
1022. We're moving out. There's been
a distress call from General Owen.
Copy !req
1023. Get your shit wired,
report in 10 minutes.
Copy !req
1024. Yes, sir.
Copy !req
1025. Who's that with you?
Copy !req
1026. Flores, sir.
Copy !req
1027. Make it 20 minutes.
Copy !req
1028. Yes, sir.
Copy !req
1029. Twenty minutes?
Copy !req
1030. We can do it.
Copy !req
1031. Whiskey Outpost.
Do you copy?
Copy !req
1032. This is Roughneck 2-0
on tack three.
Copy !req
1033. Come in, please.
Copy !req
1034. Whiskey Outpost.
Whiskey Outpost.
Copy !req
1035. This is Roughneck 2-0
on tack three.
Copy !req
1036. - Any contact with General Owen?
- No, sir.
Copy !req
1037. - Not even the transponder signal.
- It's these canyons.
Copy !req
1038. Go to higher ground, sergeant.
Copy !req
1039. Whiskey Outpost, Whiskey Outpost,
this is Roughneck 2-0 on—
Copy !req
1040. Sugar, your weapon.
Copy !req
1041. Help me!
Copy !req
1042. I'd expect anyone in this unit
to do the same for me.
Copy !req
1043. - Rico.
- Sir.
Copy !req
1044. You're acting sergeant.
Move them out.
Copy !req
1045. You heard the Lieutenant!
Saddle up!
Copy !req
1046. Jeez, someone really
humped the bunk.
Copy !req
1047. - Watkins?
- Sir?
Copy !req
1048. Secure this compound.
Police these bodies.
Copy !req
1049. Yes, sir.
Copy !req
1050. - Give me three up on the tower now!
- Aye, aye.
Copy !req
1051. - OP there! OP there!
- On the way.
Copy !req
1052. Siren Two, police up these bodies!
Copy !req
1053. It stinks in there.
Copy !req
1054. - Rico?
- Yes, sir.
Copy !req
1055. We need retrieval.
This place crawls.
Copy !req
1056. Get somebody
in the communications tent.
Copy !req
1057. Yes, sir. Diz, check it out.
Copy !req
1058. Man Group with me.
Copy !req
1059. Shit. Lieutenant.
Copy !req
1060. Dirty Bugs came in
right while they were having chow.
Copy !req
1061. Yeah. This is where they got in.
Copy !req
1062. Lieutenant.
Copy !req
1063. I think you're gonna wanna see this.
Copy !req
1064. - What have you got, Flores?
- God, I hate this place.
Copy !req
1065. What's that look like to you, Rico?
Copy !req
1066. Looks like a Bug
was in his brain, sir.
Copy !req
1067. They sucked his brains out.
Copy !req
1068. Open that.
Copy !req
1069. Officer on the deck!
Copy !req
1070. - Pick up the general.
- Is it safe?
Copy !req
1071. - We've gotta get out of here.
- General. Sir.
Copy !req
1072. Thank God for you. All of you.
Copy !req
1073. You're all gonna be heroes,
every last one of you.
Copy !req
1074. - Close that hole.
- Yes, sir.
Copy !req
1075. I had to evade capture. The security
of the Federation was at stake.
Copy !req
1076. I have operational knowledge
of what we're up to out here.
Copy !req
1077. - Flores, I need that uplink.
- Working on it, sir.
Copy !req
1078. - Damn it.
- See?
Copy !req
1079. They get in your mind.
Look, they did it to Farley.
Copy !req
1080. They got in his mind.
They make you do things.
Copy !req
1081. - They made Farley call headquarters.
- The distress call was a trap.
Copy !req
1082. They're just like us. They wanna
know what makes us tick.
Copy !req
1083. They wanna know us
so they can kill us.
Copy !req
1084. Roughnecks, this is lead. Prepare
for attack. We're gonna be attacked.
Copy !req
1085. Where's the retrieval boat?
Copy !req
1086. This is Roughneck 2-0
to Battle Group. Do you read?
Copy !req
1087. Oh, God. We're gonna die.
Copy !req
1088. Don't you understand?
We're all gonna die!
Copy !req
1089. Second squad, follow me.
Copy !req
1090. - Control yourself, general.
- I can't.
Copy !req
1091. I can't. I wish you'd just shoot me.
Copy !req
1092. Lieutenant. He's just a little
out of his mind, sir.
Copy !req
1093. Bugs! Bugs!
Copy !req
1094. - Die!
- All right.
Copy !req
1095. Warm it all up.
Everything you've got.
Copy !req
1096. Come on, you apes.
You wanna live forever?
Copy !req
1097. I got Bugs.
Copy !req

Copy !req
1101. No!
Copy !req
1102. Rico, where's my communications?
Copy !req
1103. - Diz, status on the uplink?
- Give me a minute.
Copy !req
1104. We don't have a minute.
Copy !req
1105. - Battle Group, we are under—
- This is Rodger Young. Go ahead.
Copy !req
1106. We are under attack, sir.
We need retrieval now.
Copy !req
1107. We have Planet P as clear.
Copy !req
1108. This place crawls, sir.
We need pickup now!
Copy !req
1109. - What's your position?
- Come down on this transmission.
Copy !req
1110. - Inside the outpost? That's crazy.
- I hope you have a crazy pilot. Out.
Copy !req
1111. Lieutenant! Boat coming down, sir.
Copy !req
1112. Fall back into the compound!
Copy !req
1113. Fall back!
Copy !req
1114. Hold here! Hold what you've got!
Copy !req
1115. Running low!
Copy !req
1116. - I'm out!
- Here! Make them count!
Copy !req
1117. Take cover and fire. Fall back!
Copy !req
1118. Move, move, move!
Copy !req
1119. Fall back to the boat! Haul ass!
Copy !req
1120. Oh, my God.
Copy !req
1121. Ric— Rico.
Copy !req
1122. - You know what to do.
- Yes, sir.
Copy !req
1123. Do it, Rico.
Copy !req
1124. - Yeah!
- Dizzy!
Copy !req
1125. No.
Copy !req
1126. Ace, help me. Hold her down.
Copy !req
1127. Move! Get her into the boat!
Copy !req
1128. - Come on, Diz, don't die on me.
- Get her out. Let's go, let's go.
Copy !req
1129. Let's go, let's go, let's go!
Copy !req
1130. Let's go, get aboard!
Copy !req
1131. Tower, let's go!
Copy !req
1132. Let's move it, Tower!
Copy !req
1133. Run!
Copy !req
1134. Lift off.
Copy !req
1135. Johnny, I'm dying. I'm dying.
Copy !req
1136. No. You're gonna be all right, Diz.
Copy !req
1137. It's all right...
Copy !req
1138. because I got to have you.
Copy !req
1139. Johnny, don't let me go.
Copy !req
1140. Don't let— Don't let—
Copy !req
1141. This is Battle Control. Proceed
on vector five-niner-two-two-seven.
Copy !req
1142. I think you should know...
Copy !req
1143. your friend Rico is back there.
Copy !req
1144. Get on the com and tell Fleet
to blast that rock.
Copy !req
1145. On whose authority, corporal?
Copy !req
1146. That would be mine, sir.
I assumed command of the mission.
Copy !req
1147. Rodger Young,
we have an official request...
Copy !req
1148. by the Mobile Infantry to commence
bombardment of Planet P.
Copy !req
1149. I thought you were dead.
Copy !req
1150. I'm not, but a lot of my troopers are.
Copy !req
1151. Negative on your request.
Copy !req
1152. The sky marshal
has other plans for Planet P.
Copy !req
1153. Welcome back.
Copy !req
1154. M.I. does the dying,
Fleet just does the flying.
Copy !req
1155. Hold on. Something's up.
Copy !req
1156. Fleet's mobilized for a big operation.
Copy !req
1157. Attention on deck!
Copy !req
1158. Once, somebody asked me
if I knew the difference...
Copy !req
1159. between a citizen and a civilian.
Copy !req
1160. I can tell you now.
A citizen has the courage...
Copy !req
1161. to make the safety
of the human race...
Copy !req
1162. their personal responsibility.
Copy !req
1163. Dizzy was my friend.
Copy !req
1164. She was a soldier...
Copy !req
1165. but more than that...
Copy !req
1166. she was a citizen of the Federation.
Copy !req
1167. Present arms!
Copy !req
1168. Order arms!
Copy !req
1169. Left face!
Copy !req
1170. - Officer on deck.
- Carry on.
Copy !req
1171. Burial detail, dismissed.
Copy !req
1172. At ease.
Copy !req
1173. - How are you, Carl?
- Carmen, good.
Copy !req
1174. Johnny, I'm sorry it had to be
your unit on P.
Copy !req
1175. That mission had a very low
survival probability.
Copy !req
1176. The Bugs laid a trap for us,
didn't they?
Copy !req
1177. Elegant proof of intelligence, isn't it?
Copy !req
1178. We thought there might be
a Brain Bug on P.
Copy !req
1179. You knew,
and you sent them anyway?
Copy !req
1180. We couldn't afford to launch
an operation if there wasn't one.
Copy !req
1181. You don't approve. Well, too bad.
Copy !req
1182. We're in this for the species,
boys and girls. It's simple numbers.
Copy !req
1183. They have more.
Copy !req
1184. Every day I make decisions that send
hundreds like you to their deaths.
Copy !req
1185. Didn't they tell you, colonel?
Copy !req
1186. That's what the Mobile Infantry's
good for.
Copy !req
1187. I hope you're ready for more.
Copy !req
1188. We're going back to P
to capture that Brain.
Copy !req
1189. The Roughnecks
are always ready, sir.
Copy !req
1190. I hear they need a new lieutenant.
Want the job?
Copy !req
1191. I'll take it, until I get killed
or you find someone better.
Copy !req
1192. Attention.
Copy !req
1193. - All personnel report to your stations.
- Well?
Copy !req
1194. Prepare for drop in 75 minutes.
Copy !req
1195. Take care of yourself, Johnny.
Copy !req
1196. I'll see you again.
Copy !req
1197. Officer on deck!
Copy !req
1198. - Who are all these kids?
- We got reinforced.
Copy !req
1199. Most of them are fresh out of boot.
Copy !req
1200. We're the old men, Ace.
Copy !req
1201. This is for all you new people.
Copy !req
1202. I only have one rule.
Copy !req
1203. Everyone fights. No one quits.
Copy !req
1204. If you don't do your job,
I'll kill you myself.
Copy !req
1205. - Do you get me?
- We get you, sir!
Copy !req
1206. - Welcome to the Roughnecks.
- Rico's Roughnecks!
Copy !req
1207. Today we're gonna pay a visit
to Bug City.
Copy !req
1208. We're looking for a Bug
no one's ever seen before.
Copy !req
1209. Some kind of smart Bug.
Copy !req
1210. And it probably knows we're coming.
Copy !req
1211. Saddle up!
Copy !req
1212. Go, go, go!
Copy !req
1213. Evasive action.
Copy !req
1214. Get us clear for warp, Number Two.
Copy !req
1215. - Clear in five, four, three...
- Initiating star drive in five...
Copy !req
1216. This is Rodger Young.
We're going down.
Copy !req
1217. - This is Rodger Young. We're going—
- Get out! Abandon ship! Come on!
Copy !req
1218. - Zander!
- Here!
Copy !req
1219. - We've got to get to the rescue deck!
- Come on!
Copy !req
1220. Captain.
Copy !req
1221. Abandon ship. That is an...
Copy !req
1222. She's dead, Carmen. She's dead!
Copy !req
1223. Here!
Copy !req
1224. Follow me.
Copy !req
1225. Ready?
Copy !req
1226. Hit it!
Copy !req
1227. Life pod Bravo 6-3,
two aboard.
Copy !req
1228. Scouting for a landing zone.
Checking terrain. Here.
Copy !req
1229. - Can you handle that?
- Piece of cake.
Copy !req
1230. We've lost the Rodger Young.
Copy !req
1231. Fleet Command,
we have confirmation.
Copy !req
1232. The Rodger Young is down.
Copy !req
1233. Johnny.
Copy !req
1234. Rodger Young just burned up.
Copy !req
1235. It's on the rescue net.
Copy !req
1236. Life pod Bravo 6-3, two aboard.
Is anyone receiving?
Copy !req
1237. Any survivors?
Copy !req
1238. Well, they're getting tarred up there
pretty bad.
Copy !req
1239. Life pod Bravo 6-3, two aboard.
Is anyone receiving?
Copy !req
1240. Affirmative.
This is Roughneck 2-0.
Copy !req
1241. You're breaking up. Say again.
Copy !req
1242. - Carmen?
- Say again, I'm losing you.
Copy !req
1243. Carmen!
Copy !req
1244. Prepare for landing.
Retro in three, two, one.
Copy !req
1245. Fire.
Copy !req
1246. Carmen. Carmen?
Copy !req
1247. Hey, you okay? Get out. Get out.
Copy !req
1248. This is Roughneck 2-0.
Are you receiving? Over.
Copy !req
1249. This is Roughneck 2-0.
Carmen, are you receiving?
Copy !req
1250. - Johnny, is that you?
- Yeah, it's me.
Copy !req
1251. - What's your position and situation?
- Yeah.
Copy !req
1252. We're in Bug City, 20 meters
underground.
Copy !req
1253. South 42, east 1 1 8. Situation is—
Copy !req
1254. I repeat, south 42, east 1 1 8.
What's your situation?
Copy !req
1255. Carmen?
Copy !req
1256. The situation is extremely hostile.
Copy !req
1257. I need a squad to pull them out!
Copy !req
1258. - Direction?
- Three klicks, south by southwest.
Copy !req
1259. Look out!
Copy !req
1260. - What do you wanna do?
- You heard the lieutenant!
Copy !req
1261. Rescue party.
Third squad, come with me!
Copy !req
1262. Cancel that.
Copy !req
1263. You know as well as I do
she's already dead.
Copy !req
1264. Sorry, buddy.
Copy !req
1265. Roughnecks...
Copy !req
1266. - ... Let's move.
- All right.
Copy !req
1267. Why didn't they kill us?
Copy !req
1268. They want us alive.
Copy !req
1269. We should go this way.
Copy !req
1270. A Company's that way.
Copy !req
1271. Yeah.
Copy !req
1272. But Carmen's down there.
Copy !req
1273. Hey, I hate to be rude, buddy,
but word has it she's dead.
Copy !req
1274. - She's still alive.
- How do you know?
Copy !req
1275. - I don't know how I know, but I know.
- Listen.
Copy !req
1276. You got command,
but going off mission...
Copy !req
1277. that's a serious offense.
Copy !req
1278. Yeah. I think they hang you for that.
Copy !req
1279. Roughneck 2-0,
proceed on mission.
Copy !req
1280. I need two volunteers.
Copy !req
1281. One day, someone like me...
Copy !req
1282. is gonna kill you
and your whole fucking race.
Copy !req
1283. You know what this is?
Copy !req
1284. Sure, you do.
Copy !req
1285. You're some kind of big, fat
smart Bug, aren't you?
Copy !req
1286. Come on.
Copy !req
1287. This is Roughneck 2-0.
Copy !req
1288. Brain Bug sighted
moving west of grid five.
Copy !req
1289. Run!
Copy !req
1290. No! No!
Copy !req
1291. - Give me the nuke!
- You trying to be a hero, Watkins?
Copy !req
1292. I'm trying to kill some Bugs, sir.
Copy !req
1293. Get out of here!
Copy !req
1294. Move!
Copy !req
1295. You like that? You like that?
Come on!
Copy !req
1296. You want a little more?
Copy !req
1297. You like that? You like that? You like
that? You want a little more?
Copy !req
1298. Come on!
Copy !req
1299. Come on, Carmen.
Copy !req
1300. - We did it!
- All right!
Copy !req
1301. - What's going on?
- We got it!
Copy !req
1302. Come on!
Copy !req
1303. What's it thinking, colonel?
Copy !req
1304. It's afraid.
Copy !req
1305. It's afraid!
Copy !req
1306. Carl! Carl! Hey!
Copy !req
1307. Well, look who's here.
Copy !req
1308. You made it. Good.
Copy !req
1309. It was you, wasn't it?
You told me how to find Carmen.
Copy !req
1310. Well, that's classified.
Copy !req
1311. You know, whenever
the three of us are together...
Copy !req
1312. I feel like things
might just work out.
Copy !req
1313. I hope you're right, Carmen.
We've got one of their Brains now.
Copy !req
1314. Pretty soon,
we'll know how they think...
Copy !req
1315. and then we'll know
how to beat them.
Copy !req
1316. One day, it will all be over...
Copy !req
1317. and everyone will forget
that this was the moment.
Copy !req
1318. This is when it turned.
Copy !req
1319. And it wasn't the mighty Fleet.
It wasn't some fancy new weapon.
Copy !req
1320. It was a drill instructor named Zim
who captured a Brain.
Copy !req
1321. Come on!
Copy !req
1322. Zim.
Copy !req
1323. He got him! Yeah!
Copy !req
1324. Zim. Zim got the Bug.
Zim got the Bug, man!
Copy !req
1325. - Good job, sergeant.
- Thank you, sir.
Copy !req
1326. That would be private, sir.
Copy !req
1327. - Carry on, private.
- Yes, sir!
Copy !req
1328. - Yeah!
- Yeah!
Copy !req
1329. What mysteries
will the Brain Bug reveal?
Copy !req
1330. Federal scientists are working
around the clock to probe its secrets.
Copy !req
1331. Once we understand the Bug,
we will defeat it.
Copy !req
1332. We have the ships.
We have the weapons.
Copy !req
1333. We need soldiers like
Lieutenant Stack Lumbreiser.
Copy !req
1334. We're over the target area
now, captain.
Copy !req
1335. And Captain Carmen Ibanez.
Copy !req
1336. This is the captain speaking.
All personnel prepare for drop.
Copy !req
1337. Soldiers like Private Ace Levy
and Lieutenant John Rico.
Copy !req
1338. Come on, you apes!
You wanna live forever?
Copy !req
1339. We need you all.
Service guarantees citizenship.
Copy !req
