We came here

to evict you.

I didn't want

to come.

Pretty awful, huh?

Yeah.

I just can't believe

he's dead.

Josh...

my mom died.

Not like your dad,

but she died.

But I bet you didn't wish

for your mom to die.

I just wish we could

go back to this morning.

I just wish we could figure out

how to use this thing.

Look...

if nobody can think

of anything better,

one of us has got to make it

to the street and run for help.

The only way I know

to get around them things

is this elevator shaft.

Hey.

I got a better idea.

How do you get

to the box?

Redundant cable.

Keeps the lines

from blowing down.

It ought to hold my weight

long enough for me to...

get connected.

I'm down to 119.

Marcia, you're going

to die out there.

Any calls you want me

to make for you?

Come on.

Belay me.

Adios.

Oh God.

Josh!

Josh, we're on fire!

One thing at a time.

Marcia, one thing

at a time.

- Oh my God. Marcia!

- Marcia!

She's swinging.

She's swinging!

Annie, it's okay...

Thank you.

Thank you.

Phone. Phone!

Phone, phone.

Let's go.

Yes. Go. Yes!

Oh no.

Damn. Damn.

Go, go!

Yes, yes, yes!

Yes!

No! No, no.

Yes, yes.

I can do this.

Annie.

I'm going for help.

It's okay. I'm gonna

take care of everything.

Annie.

Annie!

Don't go down there.

That's too dangerous.

You come on back here.

Let somebody else

do that.

Second floor.

Nothing to it.

All right, get back...

get back into the elevator.

I got you, you hear?

Oh, gee.

It's jammed.

It's okay.

Sometimes it does this.

What?!

You came here

just in time.

Where's your family?

Take me to them.

Well, the elevator's stuck.

We have to climb.

How did you get here?

A gentlemen called me.

A real nice fella.

All right.

- What's going on?

- I don't know.

Hold on!

Floor, please?!

The roof!

Somebody help us

out of here.

I'm stuck.

Hey, it's you.

Yeah, what's left of me.

The building

is burning downstairs.

We've got

to get on the roof.

Don't look. Don't...

be casual.

Who is that hunk that

just came in with your daughter?

Charlie.

- Hi.

- How you doing, partner?

I guess you were right

about those things.

See if you can pry

that bullet out of there.

My fingers are too big.

What about Marcia?

Yes. Yes!

Yes! Yes! Yes!

Please deposit 25

for the first three minutes.

Damn!

I hate operators.

Quiet.

Everybody quiet.

If you're quiet,

you can hear them moving.

- Annie, my gun.

- I'm trying!

It won't come out.

All right,

keep your eyes on them.

Look 'em in the eye.

They'll telegraph

their every move.

I hate you!

Josh!

You leave

my husband alone!

Annie.

Annie?

Charlie!

Open wide.

We got 'em!

Come on, let's go!

Mobile Ops 7707.

Emergency.

Oh God!

Come on, Johnny.

Stay here.

Fire! Help us!

Can anyone hear me?!

Please, help us!

Can't you see us?!

We're on fire!

Come over here.

Somebody help!

It's really burning.

Up there, can you hear us?!

- There's a fire here!

- Is anybody up there?!

- What are we going to do?

- Hang on. Hang on.

- We'll be all right.

- Please, help us.

You were wonderful.

You were wonderful.

- Thank you very much.

- You saved us all.

Thank you.

Thank you very much.

Please, fire!

Come on!

Fire!

Somebody help us!

We're on fire!

Are you okay?

Can you stand?

No, I can't.

Johnny, get away

from the edge!

But Marcia's down there.

I don't care.

Get over here now!

Listen to me.

Get over here!

Look, Annie, look!

Charlie!

- I got you.

- Help!

Don't look down.

Annie, don't let go!

Annie, I'm slipping.

Hold on, Johnny.

Please,

somebody help me!

I got you.

I got you.

I got you.

I love you.

Help!

- Charlie?

- Help!

Get help!

Charlie.

Throw me a rope.

Get a rope!

Dad, we got to do

something.

Oh, no. Oh, no!

Charlie, look out.

Hey... I hope you'll

let me down easier than that.

Outer space all right.

No doubt about it.

We can prove it.

- We could've proved it except...

- It was all burnt up in there.

Documented proof.

All my papers.

Actual physical evidence...

gone.

- Hi.

- Hi.

Oh. I'll be

over there, okay?

- How are you?

- I'm fine.

So... how 'bout

getting together sometime,

and doing

something normal?

- Normal like a movie?

- Yeah.

Charlie!

Don't go.

Listen, partner,

how's that

crystal doing?

Yeah.

See?

There's no more

problem.

- You don't need me anymore.

- Johnny.

Come here a minute.

Bye, Charlie.

Bye, John.

Are you leaving

today, Daddy?

I think I finally got

the message

you guys want me

to stay close to home.

My uniform's

all burnt up,

so I think the railroad

can get along without me.

Dad, can we survive?

Well, we've just been

talking about that.

I think I'll check out

those jobs

down at

the phone company.

And between the Menges

and us,

we'll work something out.

- Excuse me.

- Yeah.

- I'm Josh's mother.

- How do you do?

Josh has told me about

all you've done for him.

And my husband...

my late husband, he owes you

people quite a bit of money.

- He does?

- It's called a relocation fee.

And I think with that,

you'd be able to stay in a hotel

until we get

the place rebuilt.

- That is, if you'd be interested.

- We're interested.

And thank you.

Why don't we introduce

ourselves?

Johnny, where's your friend

from Grover's Bend?

Charlie?

He left.

Just like one

of those westerns.

No. No.

All right, you gumballs.

What is that?

Bounty hunter Charles McFadden,

Earth sector...

you are in violation.

Violation?

Wait a second.

I'm just killing Critters here.

That is...

there was a confirmed

infestation...

of Crites.

Charlie.

Is that you in there?

Charlie, my friend.

Wow. It's great

to see you.

And you as well.

You're looking good.

We just received

your bio alert.

Yeah, yeah.

What was that all about?

Specifically,

you are prohibited

from terminating

any transgalactic lifeform

if it means total extinction

of the species.

Oh, yeah.

But they're dangerous.

You taught me

how dangerous they are.

Aggression factor

is irrelevant.

Those two eggs

are the last two eggs.

The intergalactic council

has dispatched

a specimen collection pod.

You are instructed

to place the eggs

into the receptacle

in the pod.

The council is sending

a pod here?

Come on, Ug...

Good luck, Charlie,

my friend.

Yeah, but Ug...

Wait a second.

What am I supposed to...
