Transcript

CAPTAIN WILLIAM EISEN: Ah, Colonel. Confed has deemed this an especially critical mission.

COLONEL CHRISTOPHER BLAIR: Any particular reason?

CAPTAIN WILLIAM EISEN: Let's get down to business, shall we, Colonel?

COLONEL CHRISTOPHER BLAIR: Yes, sir.

CAPTAIN WILLIAM EISEN: Enemy reinforcements are headed this way, so we have to move fast. A trooper transport has just joined up with us. They'll be moving in right behind you, carrying the ground personnel who will nab the hostage. Thanks to your recon, we know just where we're going and what we're up against. The hostage is located in this structure. Now, you'll need to cover the trooper transport's descent to that location, then make sure it gets back here in one piece. Is that clear, Colonel?

COLONEL CHRISTOPHER BLAIR: Consider it done.
