Subject: Classic quotes as brought to you by Commander Palmer

In the past, we fought for Crimson. We fought for Hingeheads. We fought for new toys. But all that changed after E-Day. For 15 years, we've been fighting for our very survival against inhuman, genocidal Eggheads. But it is a fight we cannot continue. Crimson faces extinction unless we end this war now. We hoped the lightmass bombing would decimate the Egghead horde, but they survived and returned stronger than ever.

If we disagree, it's nothing personal, opinions are opinions.
Antagonizing me to build a false sense of worth is so damn cute.

Brighten your day with science.

"Time was your ally, human. But now it has abandoned you. The Eggheads have returned."

I laughed so hard at that one.

OT: "Do you know where we are?
The mausoleum, of the egghead."

"Maam, we've got an object coming into view now.
Cortana, what am I looking at?
That, is another egghead.
I thought egghead was some kind of superweapon.
It is, if activated this egghead will cause destruction on a galactic scale."

"The elites have failed to protect the eggheads and in doing so put all our lives at risk."

"I am the last egghead and our answer is at hand."

New Egghead! Unknown classification.
It isn't one of ours, take it out.
This is Egghead, 117. Can anyone hear me? Over.
Isolate that egghead!
Master Egghead, you mind telling me what you are doing on that egghead?
Sir, finishing this egghead.

...Now the first of many waves of commercial vessels mixed with assault craft move forward. The first ship from my fleet to be boarded breaks formation and races into the oncoming vessels- striking one amidships. The cargo freighter's hull splits open and out of it explodes not the expected consumer goods; but 31,850 dying Eggheads...

The fight has been complete.... now get the cookies!

While we certainly share your enthusiasm for the return, we here at the Bungie.net community are mostly made up of snarky asses and jerks who will ridicule you for making a thread about something revealed months ago. We regret that your innocent intentions will almost certainly be replied with anger and sarcasm, and politely invite you to don your Flame-suit, because you just did the internet equivalent of jumping up the Construct lifts.

Good job watching the cutscenes and listening to the dialogue.
