"While I'm touched by your concern, I know better than to accept what Price has to say at face value. He's going to string us along as long as he can because after that, we don't really have much use for him.

The Simulation Troopers are becoming a pain in our ass and there will be no quarter offered. Is that going to be a problem for you?" The voice that filtered through the speakers of Felix's helmet was silky but as dangerous as the naked edge of a blade.
