Nostromo is a commercial freighter. Two crew members, Parker and Brett, raise the question about wages.
Parker: Uh, before we dock, I think we ought to discuss the bonus situation. Brett and I think we deserve full shares, right baby?
Brett: Right. You see, Mr. Parker and I feel that the bonus situation has never been on an equitable level.

Could you tell me what "full shares" mean here please? They seem to be asking for some kind of bonus; what do "full shares" have to do with it?
EDIT: Replaced the link.
