Invasion of the Saucer Men Page #2

Joan should worry.

Her old man's a city attorney.

Come on, turn 'em off !

Oh, I'd hate to get caught

at a time like this ...

Yeah, I can see your

old man helping me ...

Tonight, of all nights.

Be careful, Johnny, I'd hate

to hit Larkin's old bull.

Don't worry, I could drive

this road blind-folded.

- You've had enough practice ...

- A lot honey, but never enough !

Johnny, slow up,

I can't see a thing.

No back seat driving

to our marriage !

Easy, you'll get us all killed !

The darn fool didn't

have his lights on, sir !

His lights blinded me,

I couldn't see a thing !

We wanna get there

in one piece.

It's only another quarter

mile to the highway.

It's nothing to be afraid of.

Don't worry.

Johnny !

Johnny !

- What was that ?

- I don't know it happened so fast.

I didn't see it at all !

What have we done ?

Oh it's a little boy !

Gimme a hand,

let's get him to a hospital.

Johnny !

What's this thing !

It's disgusting !

What a monster head !

Here it is. I killed it.

Johnny, I'm getting ill.

John, get me away from here !

- What is this ?

- I don't know.

We must've cut the tire

when we hit that thing.

- Are we stuck here ?

- We can't drive on it.

It's right off the rim,

and I don't have a spare.

Let's go to Larkin's

house and call the police.

Amazing !

One of them

actually landed intact !

What a story !

That must explain the blue lights

our jet pilots told us about.

I wonder how many regular

airline crack-ups it caused.

If it's all it can do, we're lucky.

But if these things are

proved to be unfriendly ...

You got a point there, sir.

Shall we drive closer so

we can get a better look ?

No, I think we oughta

wait right here.

They're watching us right now.

Sergeant, get me Division HQ.

I'll get some engineers here

and see what's inside this thing.

Calling Control ...

Do you think it could be

from another planet, sir ?

Lieutenant ! ...

When you've been

in service as long as I have,

you'll learn you don't have to think,

you just follow standard procedure.

Yes, sir.

In this case, SOP calls

for engineers, not guesses.

Yes, sir.

Excuse me, sir, I have

Division HQ on up.

Gimme that thing, Sergeant.

I wanna report this myself.

Division HQ ?

This is Colonel Ambrose.

I wanna report that the saucer

did land near Pallam wood.

Maybe he can't hear you.

Hey, open up in there !

Hello ?

Mr. Larkin ?

Anybody home ?

Johnny, we ain't got

any right in here !

Operator ? Give me Police HQ,

it's an emergency.

- Hello, Police HQ ?

- What's the trouble, young fella ?

This is Johnny Carter. I'm at the

Larkin's house near Pallam woods.

Yes ... Yes I know

you saw little green men.

Oh sure, they're from

another planet.

If you see them again, give them

my love and send them home.

Saturday night.

That's official.

He thought

I was kidding him !

Take it easy.

Here, take these.

Go in the kitchen,

try and find some candles.

I'll try the police again.

Darn phone's gone dead.

Bolt lightning must've got it.

Take these, there's more

candles in the kitchen.

Something out there

was looking at me !

Take it easy, honey.

It's all right.

Calm down, now.

What are you doing in my house ?

Our car hit something,

we came in to call the police.

The door was open.

That gives you no right to come in.

Who was it you hit ?

- It wasn't a person, it was ...

- I know.

I know it was bound to happen ...

With you kids running

all over my property.

I'll bet you killed one

of my prized efforts.

And if you did ...

You're gonna pay for it, mind you that.

- And I'll just call the police to it.

- The phone's dead.

That's what you say.

Get over there the both of you.

Get over there.

Allo ? Allo ? ...

So it is.

- We didn't kill one of your cows.

- It was a little green man, a monster !

- Have you kids been drinking ?

- No, sir.

That ain't turpentine I smell.

It's alcohol.

- You know, that's funny, I smell it too !

- Yeah, I smelled it before.

What's your name, son ?

Johnny Carter ...

I work down at Mullon's gas station.

I thought I'd seen you before.

But we didn't hurt any of your

animals. It was just a ...

- (mumbling)

- Okay ... Okay ... Mr. Larkin !

- ... messing around on my place.

- Okay, take it easy now !

And you tell your young friends

to keep off my property,

or they'll get their backside

loaded with rock shots.

Now, get !

Come on, get out of here !

I'll know where to find you

when I need you. Now get !

- What do we do now ?

- I'll have to go back and fix that flat.

It would have to happen

tonight of all nights !

Come on, honey.

- Well ?

- Hello, Sandy ?

This is Larkin. I want you to send

a couple of cops out here.

And get them smoochin'

kids off my property !

I gotta go out and

check my livestock.

Tell them to hurry up, Sandy.

I've never seen such

pestering young'uns in my life !

- What's that ?

- The wind, I guess.

Anybody home ?

(mumbling)

... messy young'uns, uh !

Anybody home ?

Will you get me Watkins-10536 ?

- Hello ?

- Art ? ... Joe.

- Listen, this time I got proof !

- What is it, Joe ?

Listen, I can't tell you what it is.

I swear I'm telling the truth, but ...

- I can't tell you what it is, see.

- Why ?

'Cause I don't know what it is !

It's stuck underneath the car.

Get in a cab and come here

right away, I need your help.

Well that's too bad,

I'm going back to sleep.

- But Art !

- But nothing. Goodbye.

Wait, don't hang up !

Will you do me one favor ?

Clean everything

out of the refrigerator.

- The refrigerator ?

- Yeah.

What I'm bringing is perishable.

We gotta keep it on ice.

- You got it, Art ?

- Everything out of the refrigerator.

Yeah, that's my boy, Art.

You won't regret this, I swear to you !

You believe me, don't you ?

... I'll be right home with it.

Yeah, eve-everything out.

Yeah, everything.

You got it ?

I got it, I got it !

You consarned hoodlums !

Refrigerator ...

Everything out ...

I need a stick to pry him loose.

What the heck am I doing ?

I'm as crazy as he is !

Listen !

Come on,

let's go see what it is.

It's one of those little things.

A live one !

What's making all the noise ?

He's banging away

at the fender of our car

with some kind

of a crazy hammer !

I bet he thinks the car

is responsible for killing his buddy.

What do you mean ?

Well, you know how the savages

blame a rain god for every storm.

Oh Johnny, let's get out of here !

- Honey ...

- Oh, how much further ?

It's another quarter mile

to the highway, come on !

Come out.

You will not be harmed.

Answer me.

Can you hear me, spaceship ?

Answer me !

- Shall I try it again, sir ?

- Go ahead.

We have you surrounded.

I don't believe anybody's in that thing.

I think it's probably remote controlled.

Would you want to walk up

there and test your theory ?

Well, no sir.

Not particularly.

And start thinking of a

way to explain this thing

without throwing the nation

into a complete panic.

Yes, sir.
