Japan Coast Guard member #1: I've just spotted a pleasure craft drifting off sure of Haneda. Recon and intercept over. Japan Coast Guard member #2: Roger that. Japan Coast Guard member #3: Got the vessel in site, from here there's no apparent hull damage. Just called the Glory Maru, requesting owner information now. The meantime, we're going aboard. We are now onboard Japan Coast Guard member #4: Hello? Anyone here? Japan Coast Guard member #5: There's no one on the flying deck Japan Coast Guard member #4: No sign of life. Just some personal effects. No traces of an incident. Maybe a fall overboard? Vessel's vacant, we'll prepare a tow.

Prime Minister Seiji Okochi: Earlier in the day, both the aqua line and the Tama River Tunnel sustained significant damage. We're currently tracking the creature responsible as it moves up Anome River. We've yet dispositively identified what sort of animal it is, but we don't believe that it can come on land, but even though it is unlikely should it beach itself in the bay shallows, there's no need to fear, our experts believe that its own weight will crush it to death. I repeat, there's no danger of the creature coming ashore, so please set your minds in ease, thank you, that will be all. One of Seiji Okochi's men: Sir, sorry to interrupt. [he tells Seiji Okochi that the creature has gone ashore] Prime Minister Seiji Okochi: What? it has? One of Seiji Okochi's men: Well well, no danger of coming ashore huh? Prime Minister Seiji Okochi: Well now what, I was just proven a liar on TV.

Rando Yaguchi: God-zilla. Kayoko Ann Patterson: That’s right. It’s the D.O.E.’s code name. Godzilla. He gave it an English name. Rando Yaguchi: Gojira... What does it mean. One of Yaguchi’s men: I found one link, on Odo Island where Maki's from, Gojira means “God Incarnate”. Kayoko Ann Patterson: A violent one, apparently that’s why you put “god” in the name that he gave it. Rando Yaguchi: Japanese, the characters read Gojira.

One of Okochi's men: Gojira's back has started to glow all of a sudden sir, no more details than that! Prime Minister Seiji Okochi: What could it be glowing for? One of Yaguchi’s men: That's everyone, Come on Yaguchi. Radio: There's been an emergency call from the Yokota Air Base, B-2 number One seems to have been downed. U.S. Ambassador: But there's no way. That's impossible. Kayoko Ann Patterson: Godzilla, truly a god incarnate. Bomber 2 pilot: The target is shooting some unidentified weapon from the front, Bomber 2 and Bomber 3 will circle in from behind. Payback time. Bomber 3 pilot: Roger. Payback. [B-2 nos. 2 and 3 drop bombs] Helicopter pilot: The Prime Minster and his cabnet are onboard and heading to Tachikawa- [Helicopter explodes.]
