Excuse me, but do you know who this person is, by any chance? [holds a picture of Dr. Tim Marcoh, the Crystal Alchemist]
Wow, Major, you can really draw.
The art of portraiture has been passed down through the Armstrong family for generations.

TMTim Marcoh
Amazing… The ability to transmute a specific person's soul like this… Maybe one as talented as you would be able to produce a complete Philosopher's Stone.
So…!
But I can't show you my research.
Why not?
You must not seek after the Stone!
Not even if it's to get our bodies back?
Never! This is the devil's research! If you chase the Stone, you will go through Hell!
I'VE ALREADY BEEN THROUGH HELL!
[A wrench is thrown at Edward's head, connecting and knocking him to the ground.]
WRWinry Rockbell
Edward, I thought I told you to call first when you're headed back here for maintenance.
WINRY! ARE YOU TRYING TO KILL ME?!
[laughs happily] Welcome back!
EDEdward [deadpan]
Yeah.
[Quick transition to the fragments of Ed's broken automail arm.]
OH, NO...!
Yeah, sorry it's a little smashed up.
WFWinry [fuming]
"A little smashed up?" A "little?" Ed, do you see what you've done to my beautiful creation? I slaved over this!
It's basically the same, it's just in smaller pieces.
[Winry slugs him in the face.]
It's just so lovely! The smell of oil, the hum of the ball bearings, the rugged yet amazingly beautiful form created through anatomical engineering! Ahh, how wonderful you are... my automail!
Crazy Gearhead.
You'd be lost without me, Alchemy Freak.
DBDenny Brosh
It's nothing. Although, if you don't mind me asking, why are you wearing a suit of armor?
[The brothers look at each other, then back at Brosh and his partner, Maria Ross.]
ETElrics [together]
It's a hobby.
In the end, burning the entire place down was easier.
Oh, is that what you were doing in Central?
Yeah. The Fullmetal boy found out about Marcoh's research. Something had to be done about it. With that issue taken care of, I thought I would come to see how things are progressing in East City. Is he here? [Gluttony, who has been sniffing the air, stands.] ... Gluttony?
I smell him. I can smell him. The scar faced Ishvallan... he's close. I can taste his stink. Like blood. I still get to eat him, right?
Oh yes, down to the last strand of hair.
Scar hasn't been sighted. Not once since that incident with the Elric Brothers.
Maybe he's not even in East City anymore.
I hope you're wrong about that.
Huh?
This case has obviously gotten to be too much for Central to handle. If I can close it quickly enough, I'll be golden. I've got a ladder to climb, and this is how it's done. I need every mark in my favor that I can get.. at least until I've assumed the office of Führer, that is.
You may not want to display your ambition quite so nakedly, sir.
Yeah, I'll be sure to remember that in future.
Have you found the body?
Not yet, but we're still searching.
Either way, he can't be in good shape after losing this much blood.
Yeah, but we do this by the book. We need to find hard proof that he's dead. Alright, Lieutenant Havoc...
Yes, sir?
You and your men will work day and night to clear out this debris. I want his body found. Don't take so much as a coffee break until that's done, do you understand?
C'mon, Colonel, can't you cut us some slack? At this rate, you're gonna work us all to death.
Shut up! I don't get to relax until I've seen his body! That means you don't get to, either.
BBrosh
I... I don't understand. These are cookbooks. What could they possibly have to do with alchemy?
Alchemy's a powerful art. It can be incredibly dangerous if misused. In order to prevent that, alchemic research is always encrypted. These are designed to look like recipes to the average person, but they're actually advanced alchemical notes. Only the alchemist who originally wrote them can understand.
BBrosh
If they're so heavily encrypted, then how are you going to be able to decipher them?
It's not going to be easy. We'll have to use all our alchemical knowledge.
How did you put it again, Al? "I think dedication is a talent all on its own"? Very smooth, little brother, very smooth!
Well... it's something I always think whenever I see a certain someone I know.
In that case, a certain someone should hurry up and get back to work, or you're gonna have to come up with a new motivational phrase!
Damn...! It's even tighter in here than I thought. I couldn't get through this far if I was regular sized. I'm lucky that I've got a small body. [Pause...] OH, NO! I JUST CALLED MYSELF A TINY LITTLE PIPSQUEAK!
N6Number 66
I am the infamous serial killer, Barry the Chopper! HA!
... Sorry, I've never heard of you. [Barry is crushed by the fact he is not recognized.] I'm from a little town in the east, so...
Fine! But even if you don't know who I am, shouldn't you at least be a little scared?! Shouldn't you be going, "Ahhh!" or "What happened to your body?!" Or something!
[Alphonse removes his helmet, revealing that he doesn't have a body]
AHHH! What happened to YOUR body, freak?!
Hey... now that's impolite.
Did you hear what I said? My dear little Elysia's about to turn three!
Lieutenant Colonel Hughes! Do you think this could wait? I'm at work.
Oh, what a coincidence. I'm at work, too. She's the cutest little thing. You should see her!
I'm sure she's adorable, but stop calling me to gush over your daughter, and on a military line,too!
Not just my daughter! I gush over my wife too!
Roy [growls to self at his desk]
I know, I know, it's your turn now. Go ahead, Colonel. I know you're dying to gush over you very own... scar-faced Ishvallan.
I consider you people whether you have physical bodies or not. If I didn't, that would mean I didn't believe my own brother is a person either.
[Before the Older Slicer can reveal the truth, Lust grabs him]
My, that was a close call. Number 48, you should know better than to talk about things that don't concern you.
[She shatters the Older Slicer's helmet. Then she and Envy see Edward]
Well, well, would you look at that. What's the Fullmetal pipsqueak doing here?
Lust': Such a troublesome boy. How did you find out about this place?
YSYounger Slicer
Brother? Brother! BROTHER!
[Taking the Younger Slicer's sword, Envy starts stabbing him to death]
Quit your pathetic blubbering, you idiot! You were trying to kill one of our most important sacrifices. Do you understand me?! You could've messed up the entire plan! What would we have done then?! Huh?!
[After killing the Younger Slicer, Envy drops the sword and joins Lust in front of Edward]
Tell me who you people are. What plan are you talking about? What do you mean when you say "important sacrifice?"
Oh, my... the pipsqueak's raring to go! I think I made it angry!
... Don't call me pipsqueak again!
Then what would you prefer?... eh, pipsqueak?
[Ed kicks out at Envy, who dodges]
Whoa, now... there's no need to fight here. Someone might get hurt, you know.
This is a fight that you started... so come on!
[Ed's Automail Arm breaks! A small pause follows]
[deadpan] Technical difficulties?
[Edward shrieks in horror]
Lucky me!
[Envy catches Ed off guard and knees him in the stomach]
You're fortunate your arm's broken... If not for that, you wouldn't be getting off so easily.
[He lets the semi-conscious Ed drop to the ground]
Listen to me well, boy... don't ever forget this. Always remember we allowed you to live. We can't have him poking around this place again, it's too dangerous. We'll have to go. Blow it up.
