JTF GENERAL: What we've got on the table is a possible solution.
PRESIDENT'S AIDE: What we've got is a possible disaster. We haven't done nearly enough field testing on your solution. We don't even know if it's toxic, for God's sake.
JTF GENERAL: What we do know is that people are dying, and this stuff kills the Green Poison. How many deaths do you want on your hands because we waited for tests to come back to tell us what we already knew.
PRESIDENT'S AIDE: Fine. You've got my authorization. But God help us if you screw this up.
JTF GENERAL: We start spraying in two days. In the meantime, you can announce a new program designed to stop the spread of Green Poison and look like a hero. And when this is all over, I'll say, "I told you so".
PRESIDENT'S AIDE: I hope to God you get the chance.
