    Captain ??? (the other guy)..."check".

    Captain Davis "I could use an ashtray here".

    Mission Control "the mission is cancelled, Captain Davis".

    Davis "sorry, can't hear you clearly".

    Davis "I promise to be a good boy this time" (or something like that).

    Lots of comical stuff in hear, but for us native English speakers it's definitely hard to catch!

    Also, Captain Davis "appears" on both sides of the Stormrider attraction, right? It's not the other, "good" pilot on the other side, correct?

    I suppose what I'm hoping for is a few phrases from each ride which I can understand and this will enhance the experience.

Capt Davis is portrayed as a happy go lucky irresponsible pilot who just loves to take guests obn joyrides thru storms... needless to say, all hell will break loose when the missile is deviated from course and turned back on YOU!.... No more spoilers from me.

And I hear that they are putting in some elevators across the park that won't work right almost from Day One. You'd think they could build these things better than that.

    It's conflict and add more excitement to the ride.
