If we can’t get in, we’ll fall back. No matter how this goes we’ll have information for the next attempt. We have to break through but we have to be smart about it or we’ll all be, [He pauses, his right metal hand tightening into a fist.]

For now. I think everyone needs to step away for a moment. This is a stressful situation. Take five minutes. Take ten if you need it.
