Mr. Rico: [hands Johnny a enlistment book] This came for you today. I presume at your request?
Johnny Rico: A lot of my friends are doing Federal Service.
Mrs. Rico: Well you're not thinking of applying.
Mr. Rico: Have you lost your mind I rather take and lashes in public square than to see you ruin your life.


Johnny Rico: It's a term of service, it's not a career. I just want to get out on my own, see the galaxy for a couple years.
Mrs. Rico: Johnny, people get killed in the Federal Service
Mr. Rico: Who gave you this idea? Its that teacher isn't it you know the one I'm talking about what's his name?
Johnny

Rico: Mr. Rasczak.
Mr. Rico: Rasczak? Silly name. There should be a law against using a school as a recruiting station
Johnny Rico: No Rasczak doesn't do that at all. He sort of discourages you
Mr. Rico: Well that's good. Because you're going to Harvard and that's the end of it.
Johnny Rico:

It's my decision, not yours.
Mr. Rico: Oh, is that how it is.
Mrs. Rico: Wait a minute you too Dad and I have a surprise for you that I think should settle this, can you guess what it is?
Johnny Rico: No.
Mr. Rico: You said you wanted to see the Galaxy, how about a trip to the outer rings Zegema Beach,

huh?
Johnny Rico: I've... always wanted to go there.
Mrs. Rico: Well good then it's all settled.
