Scenes with Brett
8 scenes Brett Brett [The team is eating breakfast after awaking from cryosleep]
This is the worst shit I've ever seen, man.
What you say? You got any biscuits over there?
Here's some cornbread.
Cornbread. Yeah.
I am cold.
Still with us, Brett?
Brett Right.
Oh, I feel dead.
Anybody ever tell you you look dead, man?
Whenever he says anything you say "right," Brett, you know that?
Brett Right.
Parker, what do you think? Your staff just follows you around and says "right". Just like a regular parrot.
Brett Right.
Brett [realizing Nostromo has changed its course and they have to investigate]
Well, so what?
Well, we are obligated under section eight...
I hate to bring this up but, uh, this a commercial ship, not a rescue ship...
Brett Right.
...and it's not in my contract to do this kind of duty. Now what about the money? If you wanna give me some money to do it, I'll be happy to, uh, t-to, you know, oblige.
Brett The man's right.
Parker...
Let's go over the bonus situation. We haven't - Can we just talk about the bonus situation?
I'm sorry. Can I say something?
Let's talk about the bonus more.
There is a clause in the contract which specifically states any systematized transmission indicating a possible intelligent origin must be investigated--
I don't wanna hear it...
Brett We don't know if it's intelligent.
I wanna go home and party.
Parker, will you just listen to the man!?
... on penalty of total forfeiture of shares. No money.
You got that?
All right, we're going in.
Uh, before we dock, I think we oughta discuss the bonus situation.
Brett Right.
Brett and I, we think we oughta - we deserve full shares, right baby?
Brett Right. You see, Mr. Parker and I feel that the bonus situation has never been on a-an equitable level.
Well, you get what you're contracted for like everybody else.
Brett Yes, but everybody else, uh, gets more than us.
If they find what they're lookin' for out there, that mean we get full shares?
Don't worry, Parker, yeah. You'll get whatever's coming to you.
Brett Look, I'm not gonna do any more work, until we get this straightened out.
Brett, you're guaranteed by law to get a share.
What?
Why don't you just **** off?
What?
Brett Uh, what'd you say, Rip?
If you have any trouble, I'll be on the bridge.
[looks at a pen being dissolved by alien's body fluid]
I haven't seen anything like that except, uh, molecular acid.
Brett It must be using it for blood.
It's got a wonderful defense mechanism. You don't dare kill it.
What's the last thing you do remember? Huh?
I remember some... horrible dream about smothering... and, anyway, where are we?
Right here.
We're on our way home.
Brett Yeah. Back to the old freezerinos.
