10:53 PM, July 22nd, 1994

At that night of the Lagoon Company making their way near the island to where the Basilian base camp was set, Tony and Revy were still keeping an eye out for any enemy patrol boats. The smoking and the drinking managed to keep the two up for hours. From a distance, Revy spotted something with her binoculars. It was a Basilian patrol boat.

Revy: I got a visual, Dutch. It's a noisy little fly.

Dutch: [through earpiece] Ok.

Tony: Noisy little fly?

Revy: An official term of ours we use.

Tony: Is it just me or are American terms gettin' a little more confusing?

Revy: Rock, bring me a Remington and the Hydra API ammo while you're at it.

Rock: Got it.

Inside the PT boat, went to get the Remington scoped rifle for Revy.

Revy: Speaking of confusing terms, don't ya ever listen to your own slang, Liam Gallagher?

Tony: Like what?

Revy: Mingin', keks and buzzin'. You even say some weird shit I can't even pick up. Even as a limey, you need subtitles.

Tony: Oi, fuck you. It's not my fault I came from Manchester. Bloody yankees...

In that short time of waiting, Rock showed up and gave Revy the Remington rifle with the Hydra API ammunition up through the ladder and open hatch. With the rifle in her hands, Revy aimed down the scope onto the patrol boat. With excellent precision, she shot one of the mercenaries on the boat and then took down the other. That was the end of those poor bastards.

Tony: [wolf whistles] You know how to handle a rifle, Revy.

Revy: Thanks. Why don't ya try snipin' for once, T?

Tony: I'm hardly a sniper, am I? Besides, last time I used a scoped rifle, I nearly dislocated my fuckin' shoulder.

Revy: Cos you're not trained in those kinds of weapons, dumb shit. [shrugs] Still, you can learn through experience, can't you?

Tony: Right... Point taken. (She's right. I haven't even practised using a sniper rifle yet. I'm more keen on handguns and full-auto rifles. But hey, I'll learn to use other guns at some point.)

Dutch stepped out from inside the boat and stood at the side. He brought over the briefcase that Rock was looking after and placed it down on the floor.

Dutch: Revy, Tony. I need you two over here.

Both Tony and Revy got off from the top of the boat and walked over to where Dutch was standing.

Dutch: Here's what we're gonna do now: Benny  and I will distract any patrol boat we come across. You two head over to the island with Rock on the Zodiac. That way, we'd deliver those documents sooner than expected.

Tony: Sounds like a plan.

Dutch then went over to get the Zodiac. After inflating the lightweight boat, he attached it with a rope to prevent it from floating away when he dropped it onto the sea.

Revy: So, once we deliver the documents, we'll meet you at the base.

Dutch: Yeah. I'll come and get you when I lose those guys tailing us. What a pain in the ass...

Revy: [looks into the briefcase] Tell me about it. What is it with these guys with "fight for a cause"? They just don't know when to quit. [closes briefcase]

Tony: Hmph... let's not get us started with the Islamic bunch.

Dutch: [in realisation] Oh, right. One more thing, I have an additional message for you from Mr. Chang.
