(laughing) Ryan asks what your wife would say if she knew. And Top said, "Well, sir, I'd tell her, 'Woman, now that's getting into my personal life. And you know how I like to keep my personal life separate from my married life.'"
S2 E7Off the Meter
Repeat the lesson back to me.
Best way to get yourself out of a jam: confess to something illegal, immoral, or embarrassing.
You're a quick study.
S2 E8Natural Selection
Wait. Blue 6, what were today's instructions?
BBBob/Blue 6
Formation 0600 hours. Uniform, (huffs) boots, fatigues, 40-pound ruck sack. :meals: one MRE.
Stop. Repeat that last instruction.
BBBob/Blue 6
(After brief pause)
MMeals
one MRE.
You think that meant one MRE for the entire day, that we're trying to starve you?
BBBob/Blue 6
Yes, Sergeant Major.
(looks at Red 2) Red 2. Have you understood the instructions?
R2Red 2
Yes, Sergeant Major.
Would you explain them to the other candidate?
R2Red 2
One MRE for each meal – breakfast, lunch and dinner. That's three. (grins)
Well, you're wrong, Red 2 and you're out. Blue 6, you may proceed. (blows whistle)
So, I just passed Selection?
You have now. (brief pause) Welcome to the Unit.

Why did this happen?
Y is a crooked letter; nobody ever got it straight.

CGCongressman Gelber
I'd like some answers.
RRyan
Sir, my job and the job of my men is to protect and to defend the interests of this country, as determined by the executive branch. It is not my job to make nor to influence policy. If you disagree with specific mission objectives, I strongly suggest you address your concerns to someone higher in the chain of command.
CGCongressman Gelber
So what you're saying is you're just gonna sit there all afternoon and stonewall.
RRyan
Frankly, sir, yes sir, I am, sir.
NNeil
Oh, now don't pull that crap with me. I did three terms on the House Sub-Committee for Military Affairs.
RRyan
Congressman Reynolds, right? Middle of Texas, wasn't it? 11th District?
KKrinsman
That is correct.
RRyan
Any oil in those parts?
NNeil
What's that supposed to mean?
RRyan
Let's just say I like to know who I work for.
RRyan
Do I abort the mission?
NNeil
Let's not pretend here. You and I both know how this works. We manage up. Our job is to protect the people we work for.
RRyan
And here I thought our job was to protect the country.
S2 E10Bait
Is that the real guy?
What?
The real Zjhokar?
Real as rain.
The man was Bin Laden fifteen years ago. What are you doing handing him back?
It's what the other side wanted for Christmas.
The State Department know about this?
No, but the Air Force does.
Left them a present.
(They watch as a missile takes out the terrorists' jeep)
He didn't believe in Christmas anyway.
CSCommander Shelov
Why did Georgian forces and your American government work together? Perhaps you tell me.
Friend, I'm no policy-maker. I'm a soldier sent here to look for terrorists. (looks up at Shelov) Seen any? [Shelov tasers Jonas]
RRyan
(to Krinsman) I've got my friends, sir. I am perfectly content to have you as an enemy.
S2 E11Silver Star
I said you had two apologies to make. What are they?
DDarryl
I have to apologize to my wife.
And?... And, son?
DDarryl
I have to apologize to God.
S2 E12The Broom Cupboard
Just make sure the senator stays in her hotel.
I will use all my powers of persuasion. If that doesn't work, I'll hit her in the head.
PPresident
(Referring to General Raja) And the man, how did you find him?
Smart, charismatic, a leader.
PPresident
But?!
I wouldn't go hunting with him, sir.
PPresident
I have to thank you for exceeding my expectations.
How's that, sir?
PPresident
The Senator's kidnapping. You gave me a pretext. To either support the coup or if I sit out, it's already made the government there a whole lot more obedient.
Just trying to keep the fine Senator out of harm's way.
PPresident
Well, well done.
