Vasquez:
All right, we got seven canisters of CN-20. I say we roll them in there and nerve gas the whole f***ing nest.
Hicks:
That's worth a try, but we don't know if it's gonna affect them.
Hudson:
Let's just bug out and call it even, OK? What are we even talking about this for?
Ripley:
I say we take off and nuke the entire site from orbit [everybody looks at her] It's the only way to be sure.
Hudson:
F***in' A!
Burke:
Ho- ho- Hold on a second. This installation has a substantial dollar value attached to it.
Ripley:
[scoffs] They can bill me.
Burke:
Okay, look. This is an emotional moment for all of us, all right? I know that. But let's not make snap judgments, please. This is clearly an important species we're dealing with here, and I don't think you or I or anybody has the right to arbitrarily exterminate them.
Ripley:
Wrong!
Vasquez:
Yeah, watch us.
Hudson:
Maybe you're not keeping up on current events. We just got our asses kicked, pal!
Burke:
Look, I'm not blind to what's going on, but I cannot authorize that kind of action. I'm sorry.
Ripley:
Well, I believe Corporal Hicks has authority here.
Burke:
Corporal Hicks is...?
Ripley:
This operation is under military jurisdiction, and Hicks is next in chain of command. Am I right, Corporal?
Hicks:
Yeah... yeah, that's right.
Burke:
Yeah... look, Ripley, this is a multi-million dollar installation, OK? He can't make that kind of decision. He's just a grunt! Uh, no offense.
Hicks:
None taken. Ferro, do you copy?
Ferro:
[via radio] Standing by.
Hicks:
Prep for dust-off. We're going to need immediate evac.
Ferro:
Roger. We're on our way.
Hicks:
All right. We take off. Nuke the site from orbit. [glances at Ripley in agreement] It's the only way to be sure.
