S1.E18 The Devil Take the Hindmost

Beka: Tyr, how can you defend them? Your mercenaries are robbing us blind.

Tyr: They're simply attempting to make sure that this entire endeavor is worth their time. I didn't think you'd have a problem with that.

Beka: You've got the genetically engineered intellect. You tell me what Dylan will say when he finds out.

Tyr: If he found out, he would make a futile appeal to my conscience, after which he would eject the thieves into deep space through the missile tubes. Which would make him feel better, but it wouldn't solve his problem.

Beka: And what's his problem?

Tyr: Logistics. He needs these people, like them or not. You need them as well. However, your problem is different. Your problem, I can solve. I can arrange for you to receive a reasonable percentage if you'll look the other way.

Beka: Define reasonable.

Brother Thaddeus: Captain Hunt and his band are building new weapons. Now he isn't just teaching them how to kill. He's teaching them how to think like killers.

Rev Bem: Dylan is only trying to give the Hajira a fighting chance.

Brother Thaddeus: Life isn't a battle. It's a test of faith. I taught you that.

Rev Bem: For which I will be forever grateful. But we all approach the test in our own way. We reflect, Dylan acts.

Brother Thaddeus: I will not allow my children to be corrupted by violence!

Rev Bem: But you used force to compel the Hajira to retain their innocence. You took away their option, their choice. Was that not violence?

Tiama: Trenches are in place. Charges are set. We're as ready as we're ever going to be.

Captain Hunt: Are you okay?

Tiama: I'm worried.

Captain Hunt: Well, good. You should be. We're about to go into battle.

Tiama: No. No, no. It's not that. I have Arun and more cousins than I can count. No matter what happens, I'll live forever in their memories. I'm worried about you. You're all alone. No one shares your memories. What happens if you die?

Captain Hunt: I'm not planning on dying.

Tiama: But it's possible.

Captain Hunt: Anything's possible.

Tiama: You could live forever, you know, like us.

Captain Hunt: Tiama, I...

Tiama: We could make children. They would remember for you. And when they grow up, they would protect us, like you do.

Captain Hunt: I tell you what. When you have children someday, you can teach them to protect themselves, and they can remember for us both.

Tiama: I will.

Captain Hunt: Good... The slavers.

Ursari: What do you mean, they dug a trench?

Szabos: Somebody's been playing soldier out here. Wire, pungi sticks, couple of land mines. And that's just what we can see.

Ursari: Wayists and their books. The Talmud, the Bible, and the Lancer Counter-Insurgency Operations Manual all on the same shelf. Very eclectic.

Szabos: Boss, where you going?

Ursari: To start a debate over how many Wayists can dance on the end of a pike.

Captain Hunt: It's not the Wayists you have to worry about. It's me.

Ursari: Nice antique. What is that, a Mark 5 or a Mark 6?

Captain Hunt: I can arrange a closer look.

Ursari: We both know what's going to happen. A lot of people are going to die. Yours, mine. Now, mostly yours. And neither of us wants that to happen. So what do you say you give up thirty villagers, we call it a day.

Captain Hunt: I've already called it a day.

Ursari: Fine. I'll go as low as fifteen. I'll even let you pick them. Throw in a couple of old ones if you want.

Captain Hunt: You want fifteen? I'll give you fifteen. Fifteen minutes to get off this planet and never come back.

Ursari: We were so close. Are you sure?

Captain Hunt: Absolutely.

Rev Bem: Please, do not do this.

Brother Thaddeus: Lay down your weapons, all of you. No one has to die today.

Ursari: A Magog.

Rev Bem: The arms of the Way are wide and embrace many.

Szabos: You know, boss, the hold's pretty full.

Ursari: True. And the bonus that I'd pull down for fifteen of your mudfoots wouldn't cover the cost of my ammo.

Captain Hunt: So why ruin the day with a lot of unnecessary bleeding and screaming.

Ursari: I guess some days you eat the bear, and some days the bear eats you.
