Kristen Wiig credited as playing...
Annie Montrose
- Annie Montrose: I mean, what are we gonna say? 'Dear America, remember that astronaut we killed and had a really nice funeral for? Turns out he's alive and we left him on Mars. Our bad. Sincerely, NASA.' I mean, do you realize the shit storm that is about to hit us?
- Annie Montrose: What the hell is 'Project Elrond'?
- Vincent Kapoor: I had to make something up.
- Annie Montrose: But 'Elrond'?
- Mitch Henderson: Because it's a secret meeting.
- Annie Montrose: How do you know that, and why does Elrond mean secret meeting?
- Bruce Ng: The Council of Elrond. It's the... it's from The Lord of the Rings. It's the meeting where they decide to destroy the One Ring.
- Teddy Sanders: If we're going to call something Project Elrond, I would like my code name to be 'Glorfindel'.
- Annie Montrose: [pause] I hate every one of you.
- Annie Montrose: But if something goes wrong?
- Vincent Kapoor: Then we lose the crew.
- Bruce Ng: So what, we either have a high chance of killing one person, or a low chance of killing six people. How do we make that decision?
- Vincent Kapoor: We don't.
- [pointing to Teddy]
- Vincent Kapoor: He does.
- Mitch Henderson: Yeah, bullshit. It should be Commander Lewis' call.
- Teddy Sanders: We still have a chance to bring five astronauts home safe and sound. I'm not risking their lives.
- Mitch Henderson: Let them make that decision.
- Teddy Sanders: Mitch, we are going with option one.
- Mitch Henderson: You god damn coward.
- Teddy Sanders: We need to use the Taiyang Shen.
- Vincent Kapoor: Uh huh
- Annie Montrose: What am I missing? Why is that important?
- Vincent Kapoor: Beause we can only do one.
- Teddy Sanders: Send Watney enough food to last until Ares IV, or send Hermes back to get him right now.
- Vincent Kapoor: Both plans require the use of the Taiyang Shen. So we have to choose.
