Countdown

"Before your primate brain is too badly damaged to understand, I want to thank you for helping us destroy your world."

"Have these Guardians told you where you'll establish your new home world? The one Humans are destined to destroy? Is it here, in the Expanse? In case you haven't noticed, the Spheres are turning it into a trans-dimensional wasteland! None of you will be able to survive. You say the Guardians have helped you? Have they ever tried to disable the Spheres? Because we've found a way. Help me save my people, and I can help you save yours."

"We're all part of the same crew, no matter which uniform we wear. Don't worry about Ensign Sato, we'll bring her home."

"We've got less than ten hours before this weapon reaches Earth. The captain wants to take a team aboard to destroy it. I don't imagine the Reptilians will make this easy for us, but that's why you're here. That's why Major Hayes picked each one of you for this mission: because he knew you'd get the job done. I need three volunteers."
