Just a thought...
A what if scenario involving Stryker and Brisbane.
Lord Commander Stryker: On no account will a Menite ever drink water, and not without good reason. Water is the source of all life. Why, you realize that seventy percent of you is water. And as human beings, you and I need fresh, pure water to replenish our precious bodily fluids. (Brisbane chuckles nervously) Markus, have you never wondered why I drink only distilled water, or rain water, and only pure grain alcohol? Have you ever heard of a thing called fluoridation? Fluoridation of water? Fluoridation is the most monstrously conceived and dangerous menite plot we have ever had to face. Markus, do you realize that in addition to fluoridating water, why there are studies underway to fluoridate salt, flour, fruit juices, soup, sugar, milk... Ice cream. Ice cream, Marcus, children's ice cream!
Major Markus Brisbane: Lord, Coleman.
Stryker: You know when fluoridation first began?
Brisbane: Aye, no, no. I don't Coleman.
Stryker: Six-hundred and four. Six-hundered and four, Markus. How does that coincide with your average pre-war Menite conspiracy, huh? Its incredibly obvious isn't it? A foreign substance is introduced into our precious bodily fluids without the knowledge of the individual. Certainly without any choice. That's the way your hard-core Menite works.
Markus: Uh, Coleman, Coleman, listen, tell me, tell me, Coleman. When did you first... Well, develop this theory?
Stryker: Well, I, uh...I...I...first became aware of it, Markus, during the physical act of love.
Markus: (staring) Hmm?
Stryker: Yes, a uh, a profound sense of fatigue, a feeling of emptiness followed. Luckily I was able to interpret these feelings correctly. The loss of essence.
Markus: (nodding) Hmm...
Stryker: I can assure you that it has not recurred, Markus. Haley uh... Women sense my power and they seek the life essence. I do not avoid women, Markus.
Markus: No.
Stryker: But, I do deny them my essence.
Apologies to Stanley Kubrick.
On my way to hell.
