Spiral Zone1987

Dirk Courage:
Eventually, we had to stop Overlord another way - but blowing the bridge and the tunnel were reasonable steps to take at the time.

Ned Tucker:
[snickers] You can't make an omelette without breaking eggs, sir!

[one of the committee members smiles at this remark. The chairman glares at him and then looks back at Commander Courage]

Council chairman:
Let me ask you about a bigger 'omelette', Commander: the Panama canal! Our most vital shipping link was recently closed to repair damage caused by the Zone Riders!

Dirk Courage:
It was necessary to destroy several locks in order to save the canal.
