Ripcord gets implanted with a cerebroshell

Bravo team has no choice but to move on from the fact that Ripcord, dressed up in Airborne's uniform, didn't go back to base as ordered. Their attention then focuses to the task of using a signal from a cerebro-shell to trace where Cobra is broadcasting the mind controlling signals from. Duke wants to know if Dataframe is able to use the cerebro-shell extracted from the dead Tucaro to accomplish this plan.

 

Dataframe: Hmmmm… I think I can do this general, but I’ve got some bad news…

 

Duke: What is it?

 

Dataframe: The cerebro-shell has to be implanted so it’ll become active. Otherwise, there’s no signal to trace. One of us is going to have to have one of these implanted in their noggin…

 

Barbecue: Maybe we can just capture a Tucarrrrrrrro! Trace his signal!

 

Dataframe: It won’t work. I can’t get the computer to get a read on the shell unless I can get hands on. That means one way or another, we have to implant one.

 

Barbecue: Aye still say we capture a Tucarrrrrrro!

 

Duke: We won’t be doing that. It’ll have to be one of us. I’ll do it…

 

Scarlett: You can’t be serious! You’re a general! You know too much to be implanted by a cerebro-shell!

 

Ripcord: Can we even implant one of those things? Can it be done?

 

Dataframe: It’s easy. All we have to do is break the skin. The shell does all the work.

 

Ripcord: Yeah, but we don’t know everything about those things! HM hasn’t been the same since he got shelled…

 

Dataframe: So then I say we implant you! You’re not even supposed to be here!

 

Scarlett: We aren’t nominating anybody. It has to be a volunteer. I’ll…

 

Ripcord: No! I’ll do it… I’ll do it.

 

Duke: Are you sure, Ripcord?

 

Ripcord: Yeah… I’ll do it.

 

Ripcord looks directly at Scarlett.

 

Ripcord: What’s the worst that could happen? Right?

 

Immediately they get to work to implant the shell. They gather around for the shell implantation.

 

Ripcord: So how are you guys going to do this?

 

Barbecue: I say we shove it up his arse!

 

Dataframe: We could, but I gotta attach leads to this thing and that’ll be much too queer for me. We’ll cut open the back of his neck.

 

Ripcord: Don’t cut too deeply now…

 

Dataframe: Shut up...

 

Dataframe makes a small incision with his knife. Ripcord keeps his eyes on Scarlett the whole time)

 

Ripcord: Is it in yet?

 

Dataframe: No… It’s not going in like I thought… Oh wait! There it goes! Amazing!

 

The shell disappears under the base of Ripcord’s skull.

 

Duke: Get those leads hooked up soldier!

 

Dataframe: Yes General…
