Captain Mike Tavish: The system connection will be completed soon. General Shepard, you are connected to Captain Price.

Shepard: Back from the brink, Captain.

Captain Price: "Jumping out of the frying pan" is a more appropriate description.

Shepard: We thought we recovered it before Russia cracked the ACS. We were wrong. Makarov made the United States a scapegoat. Next thing you know there are sparks everywhere.

What is the picture you are sending me?

Captain Price: If you want to put out the flames of the oil pan, sir, just create a big explosion right next to it. Consume all the oxygen and extinguish the flames.

Sheppard: Price, you've been locked up for too long. Better clear your head, kid.

Captain Price: Shepard, will you win at all costs?

Shepard: Always.

Captain Price: Now that we have a fire, we need a big explosion.

Shepard: You've been in the concentration camp too long, Price. Concentrate on taking out Makarov.

Captain Price: No time, sir. Today we have to end the war.

Shepard: I'm not asking for your opinion, Price, this is an order, you...

Captain Price: It seems our communications have been interrupted.
