Demi:
"To defeat an adversary... you must always drive the fight, be willing to do that which is never expected."
Dr. Semak:
We've all read his book.
Demi:
My father had ambitions for me. So did the Party. I was in a hunter-killer exercise with Markov. Command was sizing us up for bigger things, and I had so much to prove. I knew Markov would never expect me to fight in the blind, so I pulled into his wake. But I never expected him to reverse his engines, either. During the collision, I smashed my head into the gyro. When I came around, there was a fire in the forward torpedo. The men fighting it wouldn't... they wouldn't come out. They refused. So I was, um... I was forced to seal them inside. Eventually, they just let the tubes open and let the sea rush in. Better to drown than burn, I guess.
[starting to weep]
Demi:
That should've been the end of our careers, but, uh... Command would not allow my father to be shamed by me. We never faced the families, we never faced ourselves. We were just quietly passed over, exiled out here so we wouldn't embarrass anybody. Command would never put something as important as the Phantom in the hands of someone like me.
