• Solid Snake : [act 2 Mission Briefing continued]  Or it could be a trap.

  Colonel Roy Campbell : True, but even so, the payoff would greatly aid our efforts.

  [Rosemary gives him a cup and begins to drink it] 

  Hal 'Otacon' Emmerich : I had Sunny trace the origin of Naomi's mail. The address is fake, but Sunny was able to track the message back through its proxies based on access date/time stamps and data transfer volumes. Apparently, the message originated from a server in South America. I wouldn't exactly call it a hundred percent credible, though.

  Solid Snake : Colonel, where's Meryl?

  Colonel Roy Campbell : I know she left the Middle East in pursuit of Liquid. I'm sure ARSOC is on to us by now. We can't chase that line too far.

  Solid Snake : Huh. Which leaves Naomi as our only lead.

  Colonel Roy Campbell : I've secured you landing clearance at El Dorado International Airport. You'll be acting as a U.N. inspector.

  Hal 'Otacon' Emmerich : South America... That's about twenty hours from here. Then, what's the plan?

  Colonel Roy Campbell : I'll arrange for them to get you a 4x4. The location Naomi gave us, the PMC's base, is in a mountainous region surrounded by forests. Use the 4x4 to get as close as possible to the PMC's security perimeter. From there on, Snake, it'll be a solo sneaking mission.

  Rosemary : Roy...

  [gives him a plate of food] 

  Colonel Roy Campbell : Heh. Thanks. The rebels are still pitched in battle against the PMCs. The commotion should help you slip into the facility unnoticed.

  Solid Snake : Twenty hours until we land. Got it. I'll have a look at the documents.

  [Otacon nods] 

  Solid Snake : Maybe I'll even have a smoke while I still can.

• Rosemary : What's up Snake?

  Solid Snake : Got an update for me?

  Rosemary : There doesn't seem to be any problem with your psyche. So far, so good. Proceed with the mission.

  Solid Snake : Got it.

  Colonel Roy Campbell : Speaking of food Snake... .

  Solid Snake : Colonel? We're... .in the middle of something here.

  Colonel Roy Campbell : Have you ever eaten rations from a country other than the U.S.?

  Solid Snake : Of course I have.

  Colonel Roy Campbell : The U.N. recently held a ration swap meet between military attachés of each member state. It was a momentous development in the cultivation and understanding of other countries cuisines.

  Rosemary : Roy this isn't really the time... ..

  Colonel Roy Campbell : On the contrary, I want you to hear this too Rose.

  Rosemary : I've already heard it a hundred... .

  Colonel Roy Campbell : You'll survive. Anyway Snake, I did a taste test and found out that French rations were generally the best. The Italians weren't bad either. And the Japanese stuff was much better than I expected.

  Solid Snake : Really? That's... .wonderful.

  Colonel Roy Campbell : But everyone seem to agree that the worst rations of all were ours. America for the win.

  Solid Snake : Alright, so what's your point?

  Colonel Roy Campbell : Yep. It must be nice to live in a country that knows how to cook. Those French rations... ..delicieaux! I wish you could've been there to try some Snake. Oh, and you too Rose.

  Solid Snake : Colonel, what exactly are you......

  Colonel Roy Campbell : Some of the best food I've ever tasted Rose!

  Rosemary : I'm sorry Snake, but ever since he went to that swap meet that's all he can talk about. You think he never had a decent meal in his life.

  Solid Snake : Yeah no kidding. Wait a second. Rose, who does the cooking at your house?

  Rosemary : Me! Roy doesn't... .what are you getting at?

  Solid Snake : Nothing. Nevermind. Colonel?

  Colonel Roy Campbell : Hm?

  Solid Snake : My sympathies.

  Colonel Roy Campbell : It's appreciated Snake.

  Rosemary : I actually like those American rations!

• Rosemary : I don't know much about motorcycles, but it's clear Big Mama's amazingly talented with that bike. It's like danger doesn't even register with her. One false move though and you're both done for.

  Solid Snake : That's part of the thrill.

  Rosemary : She may be affected by what's known as "riders high".

  Solid Snake : I've heard of runners high.

  Rosemary : It's a similar phenomenon. Beta endorphins are secreted inside the brain while you run, creating a feeling of intoxication. In other words, a psychological high.

  Solid Snake : Right I've heard of that.

  Rosemary : Some motorcyclists have also reported experiencing the same kind of sensation. It hasn't yet been confirmed psychologically, but that kind of high can make you oblivious to danger. Maybe that's why she's riding like nothing can stop her.

  Solid Snake : Hmmm sounds like a combat high. Kinda wish I wasn't riding shotgun though.

  Rosemary : In a combat high, your brain overdoses on adrenaline. Not endorphins. But don't worry Snake from what I can tell she's got skills and... ..she deserves your faith.
