00:00Wing Commander IV
00:05The fate of mankind rests with you.
00:22For half a century, humanity fought a battle of survival against the Kilrathi.
00:27With victory came peace, and a simple life for the Confederation's greatest hero.
00:33I'm not waiting. Don't call me honey. The space pigs are all the same.
00:41I guess women out here on the edge of nowhere can't appreciate a civilized man.
00:46Sure they do. When they meet one.
00:51Good to see you too, Colonel. Or should I say, farmer lair.
00:55It's a peaceful life.
00:57I've always said you're either an earthworm or an eagle.
01:02The war is over. The Kilrathi defeated.
01:05Peace and prosperity await humanity.
01:09If only it were so simple.
01:11But the universe is not that simple.
01:23Don't be attacked us!
01:24Just when you thought your flying days were over.
01:29You are being recalled to active military service.
01:32They pull you back in.
01:34This time, the enemy is not an alien race, but mankind itself.
01:39Looks like you guys ran into some trouble.
01:41The border world, there's barbarians most of them.
01:43What the devil is going on out there?
01:45Mark Hamill.
01:48You're gonna wish you never met me.
01:50I already do.
01:52Malcolm McDowell.
01:54Let's hope that war is not our only option.
01:57John Rhys Davies.
01:58The declaration of war against the border worlds has been laid before the assembly.
02:03Jason Bernard.
02:04What is all of this coming to?
02:06And Tom Wilson as Maniac.
02:08He seems to have a hard time understanding the words, no, and not interested.
02:13All return for the greatest wing commander adventure yet.
02:17I bet you wish you had one of those during the war.
02:20But put the fear of God into the Kilraffy.
02:23The battle is waged not only for control of the confederation,
02:28but its very soul.
02:31We should be able to think of something better to do than all this killing.
02:35Seize that man!
02:39You knew that stunt cost us.
02:40I don't have to tell you!
02:42I don't have to tell you!
02:43I don't have to tell you!
02:44Lock him!
02:49You got it, kid.
02:51Buy your prisoner of war then, cunt.
