We need to find the leader. Mangalores don't fight without their leaders.
[he stands up holding a pistol to Father Vito Cornelius' head]
One more shot and we start killing hostages!
That would be the leader.
Send someone in to negotiate!
SS Ship's officer
[shrugging]
I…I never negotiated before.
SS Ship's officer
Uh…yeah…sure. [yells to the Mangalores] We're sending someone in to negotiate!
[Korben strides through the door, levels his weapon and fires a single shot into Aknot's forehead. The Mangalore leader falls to the floor with a thump, and his troops look down at him uncertain what to do next] [pointing the gun around]
Anyone else want to negotiate?
SS Ship's officer

President Lindberg There's a ball of fire, 1200 miles in diameter heading straight for Earth and we have no idea how to stop it. That's the problem.
How much time do we have?
SS Scientist's aide
If its speed remains constant, an hour and fifty-seven minutes.
I'll call you back in two hours. [hangs up]
President Lindberg Hello? Hello? Hello?
[checks on Leeloo and Korben's healing process. They are "occupied"]
Uh, they're... not ready. They need... five more minutes.
President Lindberg You have twenty seconds.
President Lindberg Major Dallas, I first would like to salute a warrior. You are a shining example of this army's might. In the name of the Federation and its territory—
Mister President, Mister President. Any idea when you're gonna be getting to the point?
Lindberg [sighs]
Okay. There's a ball of fire 1,200 miles in diameter heading straight for Earth, and we have no idea how to stop it. That's the problem.
How much time do we have?
Scientist's aide: If its speed remains constant, an hour and fifty-seven minutes.
