"Top-notch triggerman." " Hey, where you goin'?" " There's somethin' over here." "[Barking]" "Wolff?" "They say he actually penetrated security... got off a shot at Santiago, missed him by inches."

"Don't say another word, Hobbes." "I think we got ourselves a couple of spies, Lieutenant." " "Spies"?" " Zip it."

"It's an escape hatch built into the higher-level sims, buried deep inside the code." "Could be anywhere..." "a rock, a tree." "Jump port's nothin' but a wet dream." "I've been over every square inch this side of the river." " What about the other side of the bridge?" " Mm-mmm." "It's no-man's-land." "Germans hold the far bank." "Shoot on sight." "[Man] Hey, Private." "Private, what are you doin' here?" " Get your ass back on post." " I got a better idea." "Why don't you?" "I think I gave you a direct order." "And I think I told you to shove the order." " What's your name, soldier?" " Sommer, Scott Eric." " That's "Sommer" with an "O."" " Well, I'll be writin' you up for that." " Better do it soon." " [Corporal Zink] Get me H.Q...." "Private Scott Sommer?" "Or is it Staff Sergeant?" " [Choking]" " Pinocchio." "Desert Storm..." "El Talil, Kuwait." "A company of Iraqi legs overran us... because a Staff Sergeant Scott "Sommers" deserted his post." "[Choking] I don't know what the hell you're talkin' about!" " Let him go." " Why?" "Four of my men died because of this rat bastard." "He knows the game." "If there's a way into this hole, there's a way out... and you're gonna help us." " You got it?" " [Gasping]" "[Brush Rustles]" "What are you doin'?" "Go on home." "Wouldn't get too fond of him." " Why not?" " I've seen this play out a hundred times." "Kid hasn't made it past day 28 once." " But he's here." " He's just a game piece." "He's not like you and me." "The sim resets 'em so they can come back and die all over again." "[Softly Imitates Gunshot]" " What if we win?" " What?" "It's a game, right?" "Like Harsh Realm." "We capture the bridge, we win, we get out." "[Sommer] We can't." "Game won't allow it." "It's designed so that nobody has a tactical advantage." "Perfect stalemate." " I don't buy that." "There's gotta be a way." " Yeah?" "Look, I've been stuck in this hole 18 months, and I'm telling you..." " no one's ever gonna take that bridge." " What if we blow it up?" " What?" " The bridge." " That's crazy." " Why?" "The game's all about capturing the bridge, right?" "Every scenario revolves around taking it intact." "If we destroy it..." "Game over." "Or we get digitized 'cause we're trapped inside the sim when it crashes." "[Whimpering]" "They got sentries patrolling the far shore... plus a couple snipers back in the trees." " What about the river approach?" " No good." "Machine-gun nests here and here." "Then we're gonna have to go across the bridge deck..." " place our charges there." " [Door Opens]" " What's that?" " Six sticks of C-2." "It's your bomb." " It's the best I could do." " What are we, back in the Dark Ages?" " It's never gonna work." " Sure, it will." "Hundred feet of fuse wire ought to buy us eight, nine minutes." " I'll light it once you're off the bridge." " Uh-uh." "You're comin' with us." " Someone needs to keep watch." " Right." "Like you did at El Talil." "I told you." "You got the wrong guy." "Fewer men on the bridge, the better." "How many guards we got to deal with?" " One of ours, two of theirs." " Great." "We gotta get past one of our own guys." "Shouldn't be a problem." "He's gonna have to take a leak at 0400." " How do you know?" " How do I know that kid behind me just fell asleep?" "[Door Opens, Closes]" "Stay with him." "[Zipper Unzips]" "[Gasps, Grunts]" " [Whispering] Hey." " [Whispering] What?" "That battle review in O.C. S..." "how'd you do?" "C-minus."

"Sommer!" "Stay down." " Where the hell were you?" " I had to pull back." "I didn't wanna jeopardize your position." "They got him." "They got Hobbes." "That means we gotta blow the bridge now." "You don't understand." "He was captured... alive." "Look." "I'm sorry about your friend, but they're gonna make him talk... and they're gonna kill him, and there ain't nothin' we can do about that." "This might be our only chance." "That's what it's all about for you, isn't it?" "Savin' your own ass." "Yes!" "That's exactly what it's about... fulfilling my mission and going home at the end of it." "What about those men... my men... that you left behind?" "They didn't get to go home." "Their number was up..." "just like your friend Hobbes." "We are not leavin' him behind." "You got that?" "We're gettin' him out." "Uh-uh." "There's no "we" here." "I ain't dying' for your friend."
