Capt. George Cummings : [as Purcell turns around in shock over getting a fourth wingman in the squadron] What's the problem, Purcell? You look like you just been hit in the gut.
Lt. Henry Purcell : Well, for one, Captain, we've been flying together for a long time, and it's good; but FOUR is an unlucky number.
Capt. George Cummings : Unlucky?
Lt. Henry Purcell : Yeah! It's not a prime number. See, prime numbers can only be divided by one or itself. THREE is a prime number. The Holy Trinity? The thesis and antithesis that come together to form the synthesis...
Capt. George Cummings : Look! This is not a seminar on metaphysics, son. This is the U.S. Navy. Now we ship out Wednesday at oh five hundred. Dismissed.
Lt. Henry Purcell : Okay. IF he'd let me finish I was gonna say Three's Company, Three Stooges, Three Musketeers, three-peat, three strikes you're out, "Three Times a Lady".
Lt. Kara Wade : Three dimensions?
Lt. Henry Purcell : Three Blind Mice.
Lt. Ben Gannon : Menage a trois. Don't forget that one. Right?

EDI : [Regarding the immediate Rangoon bombing] Squadron carries truncheon implosion bombs.
Lt. Aaron Shaftsbury : Negative, will not work. Central Prime says AGM truncheons cannot achieve necessary velocity for penetration.
EDI : One to UCAV, three seven seconds to primary. Come on, explain.
EDI : Diving dead vertical at 2070 knots will increase truncheon velocity. Bomb will successfully penetrate roof.
Lt. Kara Wade : What's the blackout risk at vertical 2070?
EDI : 73%.
Capt. Dick Marshfield : Pull off, captain. It's not worth the risk.
Capt. George Cummings : Operator to Talons, pull back. EDI will plant the truncheon.
Capt. Dick Marshfield : Captain!
Capt. George Cummings : This is what we built this machine for. There's no blood in those quantum veins. It can't blackout.
Capt. George Cummings : Operator to Talons, repeat, EDI will plant the truncheon.
Lt. Ben Gannon : Control, negative control, mission critical, One will prosecute.
Lt. Henry Purcell : This is Three to One: I got your back playboy, but if you blackout, you're going to kill yourself and everyone down there.
Lt. Ben Gannon : Negative, Three. I did not make it this far by being in the seventy third percentile. I like my odds.
Capt. George Cummings : Talon One, your orders are to stand down. Do you read me Lieutenant?
Lt. Ben Gannon : I seem to be having -
[Pulls throttle back and plane increases altitude]
Lt. Kara Wade : [Looking at Ben flying upward] Go baby go.
EDI : [after Ben begins his vertical dive] One hundred knots to release velocity.
EDI : Fifty knots to release velocity,
Naval Controller : His BP is spiking, sir.
EDI : Released velocity attained.
Lt. Ben Gannon : Truncheon away!
[Fires missile]

Lt. Henry Purcell : Leave you alone? I'm trying to help you!

Lt. Kara Wade : [as Wade, Gannon, and Purcell are running out to their jets] I'm out first, boys.
Lt. Henry Purcell : I'm on that ass!
Lt. Kara Wade : [Standing to the right side of the exit hatch to let Purcell and Gannon past her] After you, ladies.
[Gannon strokes under her chin and she playfully snaps her jaw back at him]

Lt. Henry Purcell : If I have to, I will blast your aero-elastic ass right out of the sky.
-
Lt. Henry Purcell : [as he is chasing EDI in the canyon] Look, I was the only one to defend you, but if you make me I will blast your areoelastic ass right out of the sky! Now lets stop flying around like this, this is crazy!

Lt. Henry Purcell : That's Hot.
Lt. Ben Gannon : It's got no heart but it sure can fly, thats not bad for a Tinman.
Lt. Henry Purcell : EDI, it's official you've got a callsign. UCAV "Tinman" EDI the first.
