General Novak: ...On the record, now, Berezin. I'm formally ordering you to make this expedition a fruitful one. If no scientific — or even parascientific — discovery is made within the next six months, the government will pull out altogether. No more funding, no more R and R on the South Coast, and no more fish eggs.
General Berezin: I don't give a fuck about fish eggs, Chen. I need 8 months.
General Novak: Jurgen. They gave you three. I got you six. So get me anything... footage of a sea monster, evidence of extraterrestrial life... Anything to make them believe we're not blowing money out of our asses!
General Berezin: Why are you saying this on the record?
General Novak: I can afford to. You can't.
Colt Note[]
The warning from Field Marshall Berezin's commander was unambiguous: Horizon had to produce results or the expedition would be defunded.
