Spaced Invaders Page #7

Synopsis: When one saucer of an invasion force has engine trouble, it lands on Earth. It happens to be Halloween and it happens the invaders are only about 4 feet tall. As the bumbling aliens wander around the countryside they are taken to be children and they make friends with two children, one of whom is the daughter of the sheriff. As their troubles mount (it's difficult for five aliens to conquer a world) they begin to give up their plans of conquest, but then there is that nasty killer robot.

ground, much iess outer space.

Can you tip that

contraption up on its butt?

If the verticai orientation

struts are functioning.

I think I've got you covered...

but we have to get back to the farm.

- Tell them to meet us there.

- Right.

Meet at the Wrenchmuller farm.

Bipto out.

Hey, where do you guys

grow your Wrenchmullers?

There must be something we can use.

You can't just take a car.

Okay?

There's the farm.

Whoa!

I'm telling you, that ship has got...

the flight potentiai of a cement truck.

I can fix that.

What's that?

That's a farmer's all-purpose heiper.

It's guaranteed to

remove stumps, gophers...

and improve the flight potential...

of a Martian spaceship.

- Get outta here.

- Heip yourseives.

Wait up. This I gotta see.

This is your captain speaking.

I'd like to thank you

I hope we live long enough

That's the guy who wants to blow us up.

[ Wrenchmuller ] Flight

Your assignment is complete, Verndroid.

Your bravery and devotion

I am so proud of you, son.

You are no longer my robot slave.

Live and be free!

[ Verndroid ] Thank you, Capt. Bipto.

It has been a pieasure serving you.

Now...

I must bid you adieu.

There's much work to be done.

You see, I have pians for this worid...

Verndroid away!

Mm-hmm.

[ Sam ] NASA spends years

caicuiating fuei ioads...

iaunch pressures, and

orbitai-window dynamics.

You're just gonna stuff dynamite

under this and llght the fuse?

Actually...

I was gonna use this.

Kids, get behind that tractor.

This is supposed to save us...

from the end of the worid?

Now, before we go...

does anyone need to go to the bathroom?

Is this really gonna

work? If it's not...

we ought to figure out

how to defuse that...

- nuciear cosmos- whatever

it is. - You know how?

No.

Then move out, or this is gonna

soive everyone's probiem...

one way or another.

Hey, I'm not going home in a bag!

gonna do this again.

Same here.

Oh!

[ Shouting ]

[ Martian ] Red alert.

Run for your lives!

Leave them aione.

- Kathy, get back.

- They want to go home.

[ Enforcer Drone ] Impossible.

They have failed in their mission.

[ Kathy ] If you kill them

now, the gravity hyperfusion...

pheto-cuisinart

will blow up in...

5 minutes or so.

The Earth will implode and

throw Mars out of orbit...

and it'll go crashing into the sun.

That wouid be a biemish on

the oid perfection record.

[ Pez ] And expensive.

What if they took it out

of your paycheck? Whoa!

What's a pianet cost these days?

4 minutes, 30 seconds.

Very well.

- Return to your spacecraft.

- [ Cheering ]

Every Pez for himseif!.

Biaznee, you'll have

exactiy 6.38621 seconds...

to fire the main engine

to reach escape velocity.

Never tell me the decimai points.

I'm gonna grow up to

be 5'7?, 5'8? easy.

You're full grown.

I'm animai. You're...

poiypropyiene.

Besides...

We can write...

or something.

Geez, you're breaking my heart.

Come on, shortstuff, before

they check for green cards.

Hey, the next time you guys visit...

pay cioser attention

to our traffic iaws.

Next time we visit?

Yeech!

Well, thanks for not killing

them, Mr. Enforcer Drone.

Sorry to interrupt. 3 minutes!

You misunderstood. Once we reach...

the coid, airiess

depths of outer space...

I shall incinerate them...

and toss their charred,

sizzllng skeietons...

- into the cosmos.

- Huh? Say what?

A quick vacuuming, a

llttie air freshener...

and I wlli have compieted

my duties with perfection.

- What?

- [ Whimpering ]

You can't do that!

Better them than us.

I beg your pardon?

I thought you were

nice, but I was wrong.

You're just a seifish oid man.

They caused more troubie

than they was worth.

If it hadn't been for you...

things might have gotten

further out of hand.

Somebody might even have gotten kllied.

I'd say that makes you a

hero in both our pianets.

As the ambassador of the planet Earth...

I would like to present

you with an award...

as a token of our appreciation.

The trinitrotoiuene award.

Kids, run and get the champagne...

so we can do this up proper.

I accept...

in the name of goodwill, with hope...

for peacefui coexistence

of our 2 worids.

It certainiy isn't

much to iook at, is it?

Let me llght it up for you...

so you can get the full effect.

How pretty!

How'd you like to have a photo...

so you can remember this?

Yes, piease.

Let me back up a bit...

so I can get the whoie ship into it.

Are you sure there's enough light?

- Oh, there's gonna be pienty of llght.

- I'm so proud.

I don't know what to say.

You can just say your prayers.

[ Cllck ]
