427: Grenades are just God's way of saying it's time.
428: Why, is that a grenade? I haven't seen one since 1917! Just as awful as I remember.
429: (From a squad mate with a airhorn) BWAAAAAAAAAAAAA
430: Death is here. Hello, grimnade!

445: Hey, can we talk for a sec? Someone's just thrown a grenade at us. Since we don't have much longer, I wanted to confess something to you. I've always loved your socks. I stole a pair once. I'm wearing them now. I'm sorry.
446: Fate's here! Out run her if you can!
447: (From one squad mate, watching another run away) Looks like someone's in a hurry. You'd think he saw a grenade or something…
