Fade into Donut, Simmons, Shadow, Wade, and Lopez keeping watch at Red Base for the Meta.
Simmons: "I'm out."
Wade: "Ditto."
Shadow: "Need to save arrows."
Donut: "Me too!"
Simmons: "Well, that's it. I guess we're done, then."
Donut: "Yeah. Simmons, I have to say, I didn't think I would go out like this."
Simmons: "Yeah, whatever, that's nice."
Donut: "You're not curious how I thought I would go out?"
Simmons: "No. No, not in the least."
Donut: "How about you? Did you think you'd go out like this?"
Simmons: "Underequipped and surrounded by people I hate? Yeah, that's pretty much how I pictured it since I got assigned into this unit. You see, I'm a realist."
Shadow: "I thought I would go out back on Lían Yu."
Lopez: "Siempre pensé que iba a ser eliminado por mal mantenimiento." [I always thought I would be taken out by poor maintenance.]
Simmons: "Lopez is right. We need to think of something."
Donut: "Can we escape?"
Simmons: "I don't see how. He's faster than us and stronger than us."
Lopez: (glares at Simmons) "Además, alguien voló todos nuestros vehículos." [Plus, somebody blew up all our vehicles.]
Donut: "Good idea, Lopez!"
Simmons: "You understood what he said?"
Donut: "Yeah! High school Spanish, remember? He said the Meta must have gotten here someway."
Lopez: "¿Lo hize?" [I did?]
Shadow: "He did?"
Donut: "We just need to find his vehicle, and steal it!"
Simmons: "That's a good idea, Lopez!"
Lopez: "¿Lo es? No, no lo es." [It is? No it isn't.]
Shadow: "Uh guys? I don't think that's what Lopez actually said."
Lopez: "Gracias."
Simmons: "Okay, let's think. If you were a crazed lunatic, where would you hide a vehicle?"
Lopez: "Tal vez lo camufló. Eso es lo que yo haría." [Maybe he cloaked it. That's what I would do.]
Donut: "A garage is too obvious, Lopez. We need to think of something crazier."
Lopez: "¡Para de traducir por mí!" [Stop translating for me!]
Donut: "Crazier!"
Lopez: (agitated) "¡Eso ni siquiera fue una sugerencia!" [That wasn't even a suggestion!]
Simmons: "Well, clearly Lopez is just having an off-day, so let's ignore him."
Lopez: "Cójanse chicos." [Fuck you guys.]
Shadow: "I'm starting to think you flunked that class four times Donut."
Wade: "Ditto. I don't even speak Spanish, but I think Lopez said that wasn't even a suggestion and right now he's pissed at you guys."
