ImaginaryRuins Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 I looked up the word ballistics in the dictionary but I just can't link this word to Ashley. Just what does this mean? On a side note, Ashely in the end invited Leon for 'overtime', again I looked up this word but it doesn't seem to make sense to me. Can anyone explain the two words for me please?

Aiden95 Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 "ballistics" refers to Ashley's breasts. also apparent when luis says "i see the president equipped his daughter with balllistics" "overtime" is that ashley is propositioning leon for sex.

Wow, never expected such meanings. I understand the overtime part but ballistics is related to missiles. Even with Luis's comments I still can't understand how are breasts related to ballistics tools. As the daughter of PresIdent I thought Ashley might be more self-disciplined in terms of sexual relationship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warpath Wolf Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 Well, she's got some nice "missiles", lol . Sounds pretty clear to me. I've found it cool that Leon didn't accepted the offer of this stupid, spoiled bitch ^^. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ImaginaryRuins Posted August 9, 2012 Author Share Posted August 9, 2012 I've found it cool that Leon didn't accepted the offer of this stupid, spoiled bitch ^^. Personally, I don't think Leon declined because of this reason. It's likely that, one, he's an agent and must stick to his duty codes; two, he can't forget Ada; three, the reason why Ashley proposed him is only trying to express her gratefulness, and to do this sex is not necessary, and Leon knows this.

Madame Kennedy Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 I'm assuming you're not too familiar with some of the typical American wordplay. When Luis first meets Ashley, he remarks, "I see the President's equipped his daughter with ballistics, too." Basically, he's referring to..well, how nice her breasts look heh. It's a crude compliment in other words. It's metaphorical, not literal. Same with "overtime", it was basically a sexual invitation by Ashley, because she obviously gets attached to him in the latter part of the game (I sure as hell would too if he was sent to rescue me ). Aside from disinterest in her, Leon most likely rejected her for professional reasons. Not to mention that bedding the president's daughter wouldn't be the smartest idea, considering who his employer is. Ada can go jump off a cliff and miss the helicopter for all I care, cause...well, I don't like her, simply put. Leon belongs with Claire in my opinion. But that discussion is for another thread.

Thorpe Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 (edited) Well, ballistics is a trope. It's something I've seen in a few films like Austin Powers (the girl is equipped to fire with her breasts). This being a game about firing upon hoards of enemies is probably the reason why such a comment was made in the cutscene.
