->'''Gloval:''' It was so ''obvious!'' We should have known! A Boobytrap of course!\\
'''Lisa/Claudia:''' Boobytrap, sir?\\
'''Gloval:''' Yes, one of the oldest tricks in military history. A retreating enemy leaves behind hidden explosives and such. The aliens who designed the ship left it with an automatic defense system designed to detect and destroy their enemies. The activation of the guns means that unfriendly forces have approached close enough to be a threat to us.

->''Mostly they ran into booby traps out in [[{{mutants}} mutie]] country. Then a lot of care had to be taken about what was picked up or moved. Four of the young blaster team from War Wag Three had gone to buy the farm together, around five years ago, Ryan figured. They'd stumbled into an encampment of stickies, out toward the [[ForbiddenZone Darks]]. One of them had seen a tiny crippled baby, bawling its eyes out and had stooped to pick it up and comfort it. He'd snagged a thin fish line linked to a simple detonator and a pound of plas-ex. It'd taken over an hour to collect the shredded flesh and bone of the four adults and the infant out of the surrounding trees and bushes.''

->'''Max:''' We're gonna build a pit. Then I'm gonna sharpen some stakes and put them in the bottom of the pit. Then we'll cover the pit over. Nobody'll know it's there. Then finally someone will jump into the pit and be impaled on the stakes.
->'''99:''' I've heard of that, Max. It's called a Malayan man-trap.
->'''Max:''' It is?
->'''99:''' Uh-huh. Do you think it will work?
->'''Max:''' Well it all depends, 99.
->'''99:''' On what?
->'''Max:''' On whether or not Hunter is a Malayan man.
