Invasion of the Saucer Men Page #4

one of our jets crashed.

Busy night, too.

Plenty of calls

from people who say

they've seen flying saucers

and little green monsters.

Wonder how that rumor

ever got started ?

You got me, Sarge.

Here we go again,

see you later.

Johnny, this is silly.

The police were all over here

and they didn't find a thing.

I guess you're right.

Might as well go back.

I'm sorry, Johnny,

but I just can't relax.

I guess you're right.

Would have to happen

tonight of all nights !

Johnny, it's cold in here.

What is this, a reflex action ?

Seems like the natural

thing to do out here.

I wonder if any of the

gang saw those things ?

How do you mean ?

There are a lot of them out there,

and if any of them did see it,

that would convince the police

that we were telling the truth !

Sometime I think it doesn't

matter how many times

a kid try to tell'em something,

they still don't believe it.

It's an idea.

Let's go to the Point and see

if any of the gang is still there.

What we got to loose ?

What's so funny ?

I expected to be frightened

on my wedding night but ...

... Nothing like this !

Stand back an I'll slam the door !

Johnny, help me !

Help me !

Take it easy, honey.

It's trapped in the car.

You're all right ?

Johnny, get me away from here !

Please, Johnny !

Joan, this is it, don't you see !

At last we got some evidence.

But how do we get it

to the police station ?

You got a point, there.

Gotta get somebody

out here and see this thing !

But who, Johnny ?

Remember at the police station.

Your father was right about one thing.

The only person who'd be

interested is Joe Gruen's roommate.

- He's our only chance.

- But where is he ?

Don't you remember ? Police

said he lived at 121 Maple street.

We'll go there and find him !

- Yes, yes I remember.

- Come on, let's go !

First let's get my car,

my legs are killing me !

All right, all right.

Who goes watching the place ?

Killed by little green men, uh ?

That is, without a doubt, the

craziest story I've ever heard !

Look, will you phone

and check with the police !

They've been trying to

get you all night,

- and nobody answered.

- Yeah, thanks to these !

When you live with

a big mouth like Joe Gruen,

you gotta have

a secret weapon.

Will you please call the police !

Please !

Okay, but if this is

some kind of a gag ...

Whatever you do,

don't mention our names.

If they know we're here,

we're done for.

Don't worry.

Hello, Police station ?

This is Art Burns.

I live at 121 Maple street,

with my roommate, Joe Gruen.

Did you say Joe Gruen ?

We've been trying

to get a hold of you.

Your roommate was killed tonight.

Victim of a hit-and-run.

Killed ?

Do you know who did it ?

A couple of kids, a boy and a girl.

They've given us the slip but

we'll catch them again, don't worry.

You mean you had them

and you let them get away ?

Yeah ...

And were they scared !

You should have heard them

talking about little green men.

- I have.

- You have what ?

Nothing, never mind.

Thanks, officer, thanks a lot.

Can you come down

tomorrow and claim the body ?

Yeah.

Yeah, I guess so.

Well, are we telling

you the truth ?

Your story checks out.

Joe kept trying to tell

me something about it.

Will you go with us now ?

I'll say I will.

I'm not saying there is a claw,

mind you.

But if there is,

I'm gonna get a picture of it.

- Wow, that's a hot one !

- What's so funny ?

I was just thinking how Joe's

gonna feel when I put him

on exhibition as the

world's first victim of a spaceman !

Does it work ?

It worked all right

for the nazi I took it from.

- You disarmed a nazi soldier ?

- Sure.

Well, of course,

he was dead at the time.

Can we be going now ?

Sure. Just gimme a couple

seconds to put some clothes on.

Hey ! I thought you said

the police had your car.

They do, this belongs to Joan.

Darn, the battery's

almost dead.

When's the last time

you checked the water ?

Every time the man at

the gas station asks me.

Not the radiator,

he means the battery water.

Well, what's that ?

- How about a push ?

- I'm a guest here, remember ?

All right, all right !

Come on, Joan.

How do you like this ?

No top,no motor, but a

brand new shiny spotlight !

Somebody afraid of the dark ?

I didn't get it for that !

- What did you get it for ?

- A girl always need an extra mirror.

What a pile of junk !

Please, watch your langage,

Elvis is very sensitive !

- Elvis ?

- The gang calls her Elvis.

She pants and shimmies,

but she really goes !

Did you get rid of him ?

Yes, I gave him the story

that one of our jets crashed

and that we were taking

care of everything.

Did they believe you ?

Colonel, you are talking to the man

who made the papers believe

that 45 years old girls

were teenage maidens !

This was duck soup.

- We're about through, sir.

- Good.

When they've finished, let the

camouflage boys do their work.

Yes, sir.

Let's get moving, men !

Must be here somewhere !

Let's look on the other side.

I can't see a thing !

It's in there.

It's got to be !

Wait a minute,

I'll turn the spotlight on it.

- What was that ?

- Artie, did you see it ?

I saw something. Whatever it is,

it's down there on the floor.

Johnny, kill the headlights.

Remember the battery.

Look at that !

I never would've believed it !

Seeing is believing.

Hey Johnny, bring my camera.

I wanna get a picture of this !

Well I'll be ...

It's gone !

But it was right there, I saw it !

They'll believe us

when Art backs us up.

They can't accuse him of being

a hysterical kid. Let's get to town !

What was that ?

Don't get excited. You gotta be

calm when you call the police.

I'm glad you told me.

Darn it ! Battery.

Turn the lights off.

That'll give you more juice.

Yeah, good idea !

Give us the gun !

Did I hit it ?

- Can't see anything.

- It certainly sounds like you did !

They're in the bushes !

- Bullets don't hurt them !

- You're sure you're hitting them ?

Johnny, use the spotlight.

Turn the spotlight on !

It's the light that hurts !

Take this.

Gimme the spotlight.

What do we do now ?

Spotlight's getting dimmer.

Battery's going dead.

- Cut off the headlights.

- Yeah, you're right.

Here they come again !

Looks like we've had it !

Getting dimmer !

Come on, we'd better

make a run for it !

Johnny !

The camera !

The flashbulb !

Come on, it's now or never !

- Did you find any signs of life, sir ?

- Nothing.

Whatever flew that thing

down here went up in smoke.

- Nothing's left but ashes.

- Job well done, sir.

Makes you proud,

does it, Lieutenant ?

- What does, Colonel ?

- Being part of a show like this.

Protecting our country

from alien invaders.

Just think of it.

Only this special unit,

and the President

of the United States,

will know what

happened here tonight.

You mean you think

we know what's happened ?

Well, of course we do !

Colonel, this top secret security

business is like scratching ...
