Fade in on the underground cave

Sarge: And then Donut will use all our grenades to bombard the base, while we move forward in an advanced cover-fire formation.

Grif: Got it. And nobody hurts Sister. That's my job.

Hunter: Damn it.

Simmons: Why does Donut get to stay on the sidelines?

Sarge: Because, he's got a great arm. Heh, he coulda gone pro.

Eda: It's a shame really.

Donut: It comes from years of tossing.

Sarge: And as discussed, in the event that we are cornered and no other options exist, Donut will make sure to save at least four grenades, one for each of you. And two for Grif.

Donut: Anyone have a preference of Frag or Sticky? Tell me now, I don't want any complaining later on.

Hunter: Sticky.

Eda: Frag.

Simmons: Frag. No, wait, Sticky.

Grif: Surprise me.

Simmons: I'm gonna change back to Frag.

Donut: Hey Sarge, have you thought about calling for reinforcements? Like when we called for the ship.

Grif: You mean the ship that crushed you while bringing more blue soldiers? Yeah maybe we shouldn't do that.

Hunter: Don't forget that blue soldier was my ex.

Sarge: It's worth a shot. They owe us one now.

Radio sounds, and as Sarge speaks there's an echo in the cave

Sarge: Come in Command. Are you there? Vic, are you there? Come in! Is this thing on?

Simmons: Does anybody hear that echo?

Eda: Yeah a little bit.

Donut: Yeah, we're in a cave Simmons. Caves echo. Duh. That's how bats navigate.

Hunter: He's right your probably hearing your own ache or one of ares.

Simmons: No, it seems like it's coming from back the way we came.

Grif: Did you say bats? What bats? Were you talking about bats?

Hunter: Oh not this again.

Donut: Um, just, bats in general.

Grif: Don't bullshit me dude, I heard bats.

Hunter: I didn't.

Vic: Hehehey, rojo amigo. What's goin' on?

Sarge: Vic, we need help! The Blues have executed a brilliant plan, and it looks like we've fallen for it perfectly. No doubt they're celebrating at our very own base as we speak.

Cut to Red Base, where Tex is celebrating by threatening Church's life.

Tex: Don't move.

Tucker: Ooh, busted! Kill him Tex, I've got fifty-to-one odds if his next death is caused by anyone but Caboose.

Lilith: We're still doing that? Tucker mind catching me up.

Tucker: Sure okay.

Back to Sarge

Sarge: We're going to die if we don't get some help over here, Vic.

Vic: Uh, hey dude, it's Vic Junior. We already covered that.

Sarge: Hrr, Vic Junior. We're going to die if we don't get some help over here.

Vic: Okay dude, calm down, take a chill pill. If you don't have a chill pill take one of those chill strips, you put it on your tongue it dissolves, chill. I'll try to help, but someone's been here monkeying with my equipment. Just give me a second and I'll- oh no, oh man, I gotta go, bye, try to win.
