The army don't wanna surprise us.

Leave it to the dinks for that, huh?

Give me a minute on this thing we're doing. I mean, what we're doing. What are we doing, sarge?

We have a VC suspect. Is that what you mean? She's a VC whore and we're gonna have fun with her.

She's just a farm girl.

Let me carry the weight. What's the problem, sarge?
