A scene from Armageddon 1998
Harry Stamper

What's your contingency plan?

Truman

Contingency plan?

Harry

Your backup plan. You gotta have some kind of backup plan, right?

Truman

No, we don't have a back up plan, this is, uh…

Harry

And this is the best that you-that the government, the U.S. government could come up with? I mean, you're NASA for crying out loud, you put a man on the moon, you're geniuses! You're the guys that're thinking shit up! I'm sure you got a team of men sitting around somewhere right now just thinking shit up and somebody backing them up! You're telling me you don't have a backup plan, that these eight boy scouts right here [gestures to USAF pilots], that is the world's hope, that's what you're telling me?

Truman

Yeah.
