The briefingplays on "head up" displays and the ready room screens. A
captive BUG WARRIOR clicks and shrieks as FEDERAL SCIENTISTS
torture it. The troopers cheer.

OFFICIAL VOICE
Everyday Federal scientists are looking for
new ways to kill bugs and you can help...

The head scientists turns and speaks to camera. It's Carl.
Johnny and Dizzy share an amazed grin, noticing a difference in
their old friend, something that speaks of... authority.

CARL
To defeat the enemy, we must know the
enemy. Take for instance your basic
Arachnid warrior. Minimal IQ, armored,
completely lethal. You can blow a limb off...

Carl picks up apulse gun and blows one of the bugs legs off.
The insect screams.

CARL
... and it's still 86% combat effec-tive.
But here's a tip: Aim for the nerve stem
and put it down for good.

Carl fires again. The bug kicks and squeals as it dies.
Carl tosses the pulse gun aside.

CARL
Now while you are out killing bugs,
we want you to be our eyes and ears.
The bugs use some kind of plasma burst
to divert meteors and aim them toward Earth.
We need to know how they do this. If you
encounter any plasma, report it immediately
to your superior. Good luck and good hunting !

The briefing ends as klaxons sound.

P.A. (O.S.)
This is the Captain speaking.
All personnel prepare for drop.We
are at D minus three and counting.

LT. WILLY
Move out !
