Col. O'Neill
They didn't go for it.
Maj. Carter
They didn't approve the mission?
Col. O'Neill
No, they did that. Once they knew the stakes and the whole "fate of the universe" stuff, both the president and Hammond realized we have no choice. He sends good luck, godspeed, and all those things he says when he thinks we're gonna die.
Maj. Carter
So what didn't they go for?
Col. O'Neill
The name I suggested.
Maj. Carter
For the ship?
Col. O'Neill
Yeah.
Maj. Carter
Yeah, sir, we can't call it the Enterprise.
Col. O'Neill
Why not?!
Maj. Carter
The project codename is Prometheus. What's wrong with that?
Col. O'Neill
It's a Greek tragedy. Who wants that?
