• Maniac : Well, well, if it isn't the Colonel. I'm sorry I couldn't make your welcoming party.

  Blair : Well, I guess you had more "pressing" maneuvers to undertake, Maniac.

  Maniac : When duty calls, I'm there.

  [whispers] 

  Maniac : Women like the smell of success.

  Blair : Uh-huh. You know I'm surprised you haven't been blown out of the sky by now, Maniac... by friendly fire.

  Maniac : Some people appreciate my flying style. I do what's necessary to win, OK? I suppose you still fly with one eye on the regs manual?

  Blair : I don't take stupid risks.

  Maniac : Speaking of stupid, I also heard you put Hobbes back on the flight roster.

  Blair : My, my. Word travels fast on this tub.

  Maniac : Never understood what you saw in that cat.

  Blair : Simple, I need a wingman I can count on.

  Maniac : You can't trust someone who will kill their own kind.

  Blair : Who I choose as my wingman is my prerogative, it's privildge of rank.

  Maniac : I'll bet you stay up late nights just polishing it, huh?

  Blair : No, as a matter of fact I have Majors who do that for me.

  Maniac : The difference in our rank is a formality. We both know who's better in the cockpit.

  Blair : Yeah. We do.

  [he walks off] 

• Blair : I've got news for you, Tolwyn had nothing with your lack of promotion, your flying style took care of that for you. Tolwyn doesn't even know you're alive.

  Maniac : That's what you think. Everybody knows about the Maniac, everybody.

  [Blair walks away] 

  Maniac : How many people here know about the Maniac?

  [no one answers] 

  Maniac : Oh what, nobody?

• Maniac : [about Flash]  They ought to shoot that kid, if you ask me. At least strap him to one of my thrusters on the next mission.

  Flint : As usual Maniac, your solution to the problem is brainless.

  Maniac : Me, any chance I get, I'm up in the air. They're gonna have to pry my dead carcass out of the cockpit.

  Flint : Oh, stop banging your chest, you're gonna bruise it. The Colonel will deal him.

  Maniac : Oh, look, the Colonel is a spineless...

  Blair : [has been standing behind Maniac the whole time]  I wouldn't finish that sentence if I were you... Major.

  Maniac : Uh, we were just speculating on when the new pilot might pull his own weight.

  Blair : Uh-huh. Well, one way or another we'll find out what Flash is made of. I guarantee you that.

  [he pats Maniac on the shoulder and walks off] 

  Maniac : [to Flint]  Does he pat you like that?

• [on completion of the game, after the end credits, an outtake of the scene with Blair, Maniac and Flint early in the game; Blair pats Maniac on the shoulder and walks off] 

  Maniac : Isn't that the guy from Star Wars?

• [Maniac has noticed Blair talking to Rachel, the sexy mechanic] 

  Maniac : Well, if it isn't loverboy himself. I saw you putting the moves on everybody's favourite little grease monkey.

  Blair : Jealous?

  Maniac : Oh, I don't think getting into her pants requires any high-risk manoeuvring.

  Blair : Well, just the fact that it takes manoeuvring leaves you breathing my engine exhaust, doesn't it?

  [he walks off] 

  Maniac : Yeah.

  [he flicks through his Playboy magazine] 

  Maniac : Oh man, I've dated all you girls!

  [he tosses it down] 

• Maniac : [after destroying a Kilrathi ship]  Wooh! More kitty litter, I'm hot today!

• Maniac : [to a female crew member he's trying to impress with a story of him destroying a Kilrathi fighter]  No, I don't have anything better to do, OK?
