Captain Rhodes:
What kind of progress? What are you talking about, "make them behave?" What does that mean?
Dr. Logan:
It means keeping them from wanting to eat us for one thing. It means keeping them in check. It's controlling them. Controlling them.
Captain Rhodes:
When are you going to show us something that we can understand?
Dr. Logan:
Very close... very close! I think in a matter of weeks...
Sarah:
[cutting Dr. Logan off]
I don't think there's any way you can tell how long anything is going to take. It could be months, it could be years before we know exactly what we're dealing with here.
Dr. Logan:
[to the soldiers whom are arguing]
Sarah's research is more esoteric than mine. She's looking for a way to reverse the process, a way to eradicate the problem. Could take a long time. A very long time. She may never find what she is looking for. We have a limited supply of chemical agents. Our equipment is hopelessly inadequate.
Captain Rhodes:
McDermott doesn't have decent radio gear. Now, you're telling me that you don't have the shit you need? We're running low on ammunition. We're running low on men for Christ's sake!
Sarah:
It was very rushed. This operation was put together in a matter of days.
Captain Rhodes:
Yeah? Well it can all be taken apart in a matter of minutes, lady! And I'm here to tell you that I'm ready to do that little thing! I'm ready to take the next train out of here!
Dr. Logan:
I ask you again, Captain. Where will you go? You have no choices you'll have to give us the weeks that we've asked for.
Sarah:
You have to give us however long it takes! Look... there have to be survivors in Washington. They have more sophisticated shelters than this one. There have to be people in those shelters who know about us, who know where we are. With no radio contact, they'll come looking for us...
[Sarah's words are drowned out by the soliders arguing and protesting and jeering]
Captain Rhodes:
[to the solders]
Shut up! I said, shut up!
[the room is now silent as Rhodes turns back towards Sarah and the scientists and pauses for a few seconds]
Captain Rhodes:
You got a little more time. A little more, I ain't saying how much. But you better start showing me some results, and you better not piss me off. You understand? Nothing happens around here without my knowing about it! And anybody fucks with my command... they get court martialed... they get executed. You better know I mean it too, people.
