Quotes 

• Barrett Wallace : This pump's sole purpose is to drain the planet dry. While you sleep, while you eat, while you shit, it's here, sucking up mako. It doesn't rest and it doesn't care! You do realize what make is, don't you? Mako is the lifeblood of our world. The planet bleeds green like you and me bleed red. The hell you think's gonna happen when it's all gone, huh? Answer me! You gonna stand there and pretend you can't hear the planet crying out in pain? I know you can!

  Cloud Strife : You really hear that?

  Barrett Wallace : Damn straight I do!

  Cloud Strife : Get help.

  Barrett Wallace : Say that again!

  [the elevator stops and the doors open] 

  Cloud Strife : I'd worry less about the planet and more about the next five seconds. Save the screaming for later.

• Barrett Wallace : SOLDIERs may attack on command, but I hear they make good guard dogs too. Bet you've seen a few reactors. So how do we get to the bridge above mako storage? Ain't holding out on me, are you? Stamp scared to bite the hand that fed him? Or is he a loyal little doggy? Have it your way, mutt. We can do this with you, or we can do this without you.

  [Cloud gets a migraine headache but it passes] 

  Cloud Strife : Different reactor, different layout. Depends when it was built. Never seen one like this, but I'll manage.

• Barrett Wallace : Get down here, merc.

• Wedge : C'mon, nobody'd do something this crazy just for money. They may not think you're a true believer, but you know what I think?

  Cloud Strife : Not interested.

  Wedge : What?

  [Barret gets the steel doors opens and Wedge runs inside] 

  Barrett Wallace : Wedge! You'd better be worth the money, merc. Every last gil.

• Security Guard : Halt! Who goes there?

  Barrett Wallace : You're up.

  [Then Cloud enters into a fixed encounter battle with the security guards] 

• Barrett Wallace : [after Clould and Barret defeats Guard Scorpion robot, the robot shoots the tail laser around the room and blows up]  Shit! the bomb!

  Announcement : Twenty minutes until detonation.

  [Then the timer counts down] 

  Barrett Wallace : Hah, you hear that? Damn thing showed you how it's done!

  Cloud Strife : Come on, we've gotta move.

• Cloud Strife : You okay?

  Jessie Rasberry : Do I look okay? Help a girl out, would ya? My hero!

  [Cloud lifts the rubble off of Jessies legs and she stands up] 

  Barrett Wallace : Hey! We'll link up over there! Look after Jessie!

  Jessie Rasberry : Come this way!

• Security Officer : Who's there? Door!

  [the security guards gets their machine guns ready and shuts the door] 

  Barrett Wallace : Whoa Wait!

  Security Officer : It's over!

  Cloud Strife : That's my line.

  [Cloud enters into a fixed encounter battle] 

• Barrett Wallace : Come on... come on, come on, come on!

• Barrett Wallace : You double-crossing!

  Cloud Strife : Heads up!

  Barrett Wallace : What in the hell?

  [They enter a boss battle against Guard Scorpion robot] 

• Barrett Wallace : Looks like we made it. And with nothing but a few scratches to show. Think you might've overdone it?

  [There's a brief explosion and Biggs and Wedge gets scared] 

  Jessie Rasberry : I followed the instructions to the letter. Maybe it triggered a reaction with the mako?

  Barrett Wallace : Well, let's hope the city's still in one piece.

  Biggs : But the planet's what matters, right? I mean... this must've helped some.

  [There is another brief explosion and Wedge gets scared] 

  Jessie Rasberry : After all that, it'd better have. Anyway, let's get going. We in Sector 8?

  Wedge : That'd be just down there!

  Barrett Wallace : All right then. Lead the way.

  Wedge : You got it!

• Barrett Wallace : All right, Let's see if little Stamp really can bite the hand that feeds... Go on, Do the honors. Prove to me you're the man Tifa says you are. That you're one of us.

  [Holds out a time bomb to Cloud] 

  Cloud Strife : Never said I was. I'm just here for the paycheck.

  Barrett Wallace : Then do the damn job!

  [Cloud walks over and takes the time bomb and plants it on the reactor machine. But Cloud gets a migraine headache and it passes] 

  Barrett Wallace : What's wrong?

  Cloud Strife : I'm fine. What about the timer?

  Barrett Wallace : Your call, merc.

  [after Cloud sets the timer] 

  Barrett Wallace : Pretty cocky, ain'tcha?

• Jessie Rasberry : Barret!

  Barrett Wallace : I've got you covered. Find us a way outta here!

  Jessie Rasberry : But then-

  [Jessie is interrupted by the explosion] 

  Barrett Wallace : Don't worry I'll be fine! I've got SOLDIER boy with me!

  [Barret shoots at the security guard and Jessie runs in] 

  Cloud Strife : Ex-SOLDIER boy.

  [Cloud enters a fixed encounter battle] 

• Barrett Wallace : Our lives are on the line now. You listening merc? One false move... And that happens!

  [Barret shoots at the gun turret which crashes to the ground] 

  Jessie Rasberry : Well, so much for having Cloud do all the fighting. There are some places a sword just can't reach... Just... bear with him for me, would you?

  Cloud Strife : Should've asked for more money.

• Jessie Rasberry : No... No way.

  Biggs : This couldn't have been us... could it?

  Wedge : But what if it was...?

  Cloud Strife : What's done is done.

  Barrett Wallace : Merc's right. It ain't pretty, but we can't stop now. This was just the first reactor. And the planet won't be safe till we get the rest.

  Biggs : Yeah... We always knew this was gonna get messy.

  Wedge : And this is only the beginning...

  Barrett Wallace : Y'all gotta look at the bigger picture here. Nothing worth fighting for was ever won without sacrifice. Though you may not be crying out, I know you're in pain, just like the planet. But it's okay, cause I'm here for you! To help take the load off your shoulders! Your fears... Your worries... Your concerns... And yes, your fees... Whatever your problem, I got you.

  Biggs : So, what's our next move, boss?

  Barrett Wallace : That's easy enough! We get our asses home!

• Barrett Wallace : [When Cloud, Barret, and Tifa approaches the Shinra Building staircase]  You have got to be shitting me.

  Cloud Strife : Nope, we're a lot less likely to get caught this way.

  Barrett Wallace : But a lot more likely to die of boredom.

  [Barret looks up at the massive tall staircase in the building] 

  Cloud Strife : It's only fifty-nine floors.

  Tifa Lockhart : Nothing to it.

  Barrett Wallace : Well at least it ain't a race. Small blessing.
