Schlock: Hey, there's a kitten crawling out of your gear, Pronto.

Did you accidentally bring me back a snack from the pet-shop?

Pronto: No, I stole that on purpose.
Schlock: Even better. You're so thoughtful.
Pronto: It's not for eating. I'm going to raise it.

Pronto: It's my kitten, and I've already named him Norwest.
Ennesby: You're naming your cat after a pre-historic sniper?
Pronto: Why not?
Pronto: Cats are lone hunters, they've got great natural eyesight and an innate patience that allows them to wait until the right moment to strike.
Pronto: They're perfect candidates for sniper training.
Schlock: Except for the part where they've got no fingers.
Pronto: I'm kidding of course.

Pronto: Okay, with your paw right in there, focus on the target, and pay attention to your breathing.
