"So I have to shoot this pipe to save the galaxy?"
"Yes. Shoot the pipe and you will save the galaxy from the reapers."
"Why do I have to shoot this pipe?
"You could also grab those glowing joy sticks or jump into the beam of light, if you prefer that."
"I mean, why would anyone build a device that gets activated by shooting a pipe?"
"I don't know. I'm just here to tell you what it does."
"So what will shooting that pipe do exactly?"
"It will destroy all synthetic life. Even you are partly synthetic."
"So you're implying I will die?"
"Actually, I'm not sure about that... what's your EMS again?"
"Nevermind. What about EDI?"
"Probably... wait, no, it's been confirmed she survives."
"Now that's just absurd.  So now you're saying shooting that pipe only destroys a certain type of synthetics? Does that pipe have a personality of its own or something? How does it choose who to destroy or not destroy exactly?"
"Listen, if you don't hurry up already the crucible will be destroyed."
"What? By whom?"
"Unfortunately, you won't get to see that."
"Alright, I'll just shoot this pipe and we'll see what happens."
"Fun!"
- Extended cut dialogue with the Catalyst

EDIT: Also, because DJBare reminded me:
Shepard's Internal Voice while shooting the pipe: "Slowly walking and directly looking into the explosion will guarantee to make me look like a cool guy. Or was it 'Cool Guys don't look at ex-" *Citadel explodes*

EDIT2: Also, Synthesis.

EDIT3: Also, bonus in good faith, Control.

EDIT4: Added links inside the dialogue. Now it's almost like an interactive story. Or something.

How about no pipe shooting. I would greatly prefer a control panel or something that isn't completely idiotic.

I don't think you understand the artistic vision of Bioware or the people who designed the crucible.

I hope the 'Extended Cut' Edit of my Extended Cut Dialogue clarifies that issue.

He was thinking: "Since i've just agreed to accept that shooting a pipe of a machine would activate it to destroy the reapers because an holographic VI who admited  to have created the reapers because of some bonker circular logic told me so, i don't certainly deserve to survive this, and since he wasn't so sure about my death, i should make sure of that"

...

(after the breath scene)

"D'oh!"

In a way, that pipe is the final boss of the game. Even though Marauder Shields was more difficult. Slight fall in game difficulty there.

Look .. you people have obviously never fired a gun before. It is well known that the extra velocity you gain by running directly at something while shooting is well worth the loss of accuracy you get.

And the other stuff .. I'm an engineer tasked with installing, repairing and maintaining complex industrial electronics. And I'll tell you here and now, shooting the crap out of electronics is exactly how we start most processes in the plant. ESPECIALLY if the wires are 8" thick and look like they could carry the full capacity generated by the Hoover Dam. How could you -not- shoot that?

Yeah, as MrBtongue pointed out most of the time if you shoot a machine with your pistol, it breaks the machine.

But whoever designed the crucible most have controlled all their devices/weapons/starships with explosions.

That's odd.

He/She is right! Have you ever watched a Blade movie before? If you swing at someone while you shoot your bullet goes that much faster and does that much more damage.

A hundred times this. As if shooting a pipe to destroy the Reapers isn't ridiculous enough, Shepard decides to walk toward the fiery explosion.

Or simply: "Fleet control, this is Commander Shepard, lock on to the Citadel, the force that controls the reapers is on board. Fire."

Whine whine whine. You play a sci-fi game and you complain over the pipes, when you have synthetics with with a lamp in their head. Stop overanalyzing every piece of the game, i feel sorry for you. What do you want? Shepard with a thanix cannon shooting at the pipes?

^This.  "Red Pipe" as final boss in extended cut DLC!!! 

Oh how pathetically broken the ending is.

Shepard did look pretty badass shooting those pipes, I must say. I didn't like how Starchild moved right behind her- that was a little creepy.

B*tching b*tching b*tching.  You play a sci-fi game and you don't even pay attention to the lore & themes, when you have entire dialogues to read and investigations to perform.  Stop simplifying every game to dumb it down to CoD status, I feel sorry for you.  What do you want?  Shepard with quickscoping skills and AC-130 killstreaks?

Who'd thought that after everything we went through, after the epic Sovereign speech, all the trolling by harbinger, after countless cycles before ours failing, we would defeat the reapers by shooting a ****ing pipe.
