[Jake and Amara arrive at the Shatterdome via airship. They exit the airship.] Jake Pentecost: Yeah, look. I didn't have a choice. Amara Namani: I know, I get it. But why me? Why do they want me for the program? Jake Pentecost: You built and piloted your own Jaeger. These people like that kind of stuff. Amara Namani: Okay, so then why am I just a cadet and you get to be a ranger? [Jake and Amara see Valor Omega walk by.] Amara Namani: Valor Omega. Oh, my God. That– That is Valor Omega. [Two airships airlifting Scrapper appear.] Amara Namani: [Sees Scrapper being airlifted] Scrapper! [The airships release the cables, causing Scrapper to land on the ground. Scrapper tilts forward and falls to the ground face-first.] Amara Namani: [Annoyed] Hey! Nate Lambert: [Approaches Jake and Amara] You gotta be kidding me. I didn't believe it when they told me you were inbound. Jake Pentecost: How you doing, Nate? Nate Lambert: It's Ranger Lambert. Jake Pentecost: Are you having a laugh? Nate Lambert: Well, this is a military base. You remember how that works, Ranger Pentecost. [Amara turns to look at Jake, realizing who he is.] Nate Lambert: [To Amara] You must be Amara Namani. Amara Namani: [Turns to Nate] Yes, sir. Ranger, sir. Nate Lambert: Well, let's get you squared away. [Walks away] Oh, and, uh, try not to steal anything while you're here. [Jake and Amara follow Nate.] Amara Namani: Did that haircut just call you Pentecost? As in "Badass Stacker Pentecost"? Pilot of Coyote Tango, hero of basically the whole world? Jake Pentecost: It's just a name. Amara Namani: Yeah, a really cool name. [Jake, Amara, and Nate head across the hangar.] Nate Lambert: SIM training starts at 0600. You're late, you missed the day. You fall behind, you'll be on the next transport back to wherever they found you. Amara Namani: [Sees Titan Redeemer] That's Titan Redeemer! [Sees Bracer Phoenix] And Bracer Phoenix! She's a three-man rig! [Sees Saber Athena] Saber Athena! I love Saber Athena! She's the fastest Jaeger in the fleet. Did you know that? Woman on PA: Warning. Stand clear of lift. Amara Namani: Okay, so which one's yours? Nate Lambert: Gipsy. [Jake and Amara turn to look at Gipsy Avenger.] Amara Namani: [To Nate] You pilot Gipsy Avenger? Jules Reyes: [Approaches Jake, Amara, and Nate] He used to, until his co-pilot got a better offer in the private sector. [Holds out her hand to Amara] Jules Reyes, J-Tech. Amara Namani: [Shakes Jules' hand] Amara, cadet. [Jules turns to Jake and holds out her hand to him.] Jake Pentecost: [Shakes Jules' hand] Jake, ranger, apparently. Jules Reyes: Heard a lot about you, Pentecost. Jake Pentecost: Yeah? Jules Reyes: You know you still hold the record? Amara Namani: What record? Jake Pentecost: Shut up. Jules Reyes: So how'd they lure you back? I mean, it couldn't have been the pay, so– Jake Pentecost: Uh, yeah, it's a long story, but if you– if you want to talk about it, we can meet up– Nate Lambert: She's busy. Jules Reyes: [To Jake] Ranger. [Walks away] Nate Lambert: [To Jake] Eyes front, Pentecost. [Jake, Amara, and Nate walk away.]
