Church: "What happened? Where am I?"

F.I.L.S.S: "Safety Protocols were initiated, please remain calm."

Church: "Sheila, is that you?"

F.I.L.S.S: "Yes."

Church: "What is this place?"

F.I.L.S.S: "Your operator has been injured or incapacitated, and you are now in Recovery Mode.You will remain in this state until such time as you can be extracted by a Recovery Agent, or your operator regains consciousness."

Church: "Wait! You didn't send a Recovery Beacon did you!? Because that would be really-"

F.I.L.S.S: "Recovery Beacons only arm once a unit leaves the facility.This unit has yet to leave this facility. therefore we must first..."

Church: "Yeah, yeah I got it. Is that Tex and Alpha? Holy shit, what is Tex doing?"

Cut to Tex sitting on Alpha's lap, who was also sitting down. She was tracing shapes on his body as Alpha was looking at Church with desperation for help on his eyes.

F.I.L.S.S: "Affirmative. Technically, they're not present in this environment, but if you would like to speak to them I can relay communication through external channel."

Church: "Yes, please."

F.I.L.S.S: "I am sorry but she has refused the connection for both her and Alaska. She should not be able to do that."

Church: "Yeah, that's not surprising. Can you force it through?"

F.I.L.S.S: "I can try, but I would not recommend that action."

Church: "Because I might damage them?"

F.I.L.S.S: "No, I just have learned that when a woman wants to be alone with her boyfriend, it is best to leave her alone."

Alpha looks at FILSS in shock.

Church: "Yeah, good call. Hey get me out of this but, uh, leave both of them in here until I figure out what to do with them."

F.I.L.S.S: "Suit your self."

Tex turns to Church, glaring. Alpha gave Church an nervous but disappointed look.

Church: "Uhh, they didn't hear that did they?"

F.I.L.S.S: "Unclear."

Church: "I thought you weren't relaying my messages!"

F.I.L.S.S: "Recovery Mode disabled."

Church: "You women always stick together. Oh man, I hope Tex and Alpha didn't hear that."

Cut to Washington at the desert.

Washington: "Are you going in or not?"

Doc: "Oh, do I have a choice? Then not, I'm gonna go with that one."

Washington: "Meta, get out here!"

Meta: (growls)

Doc: "Yeah, definitely gonna stick with not. That seems like the best one of those two choices that you gave me."

Washington: "Get in there."

Doc: "Tell you what, put me back in the wall, I like the wall. It was cozy and it protected me. I miss my wall..."

Washington: "You are utterly useless. I know we brought you along for a reason, but for the life of me, I can't remember what it is."

Doc: "The important thing is we're becoming friends. They say the bonds of men in combat are as strong as brotherhood!"
