A scene from Plan 9 from Outer Space 1957
Larry

What do you suppose that noise was?

Lt. Harper

Whatever it was it's no more strange than the other things happening around this cemetery.

Larry

Spirits like Old Farmer Caulder talked about?

Lt. Harper

Heh. Maybe.

Larry

The only spirits he saw tonight were those I smelled on his breath.

Lt. Harper

Well don't forget Mrs. Trent claims to have seen them too. She didn't have anything on her breath.

Larry

She was hysterical.

Lt. Harper

Well true, she was frightened, and in a state of shock. But, don't forget that torn nightgown and the scratched feet.

Larry

Yeah I hadn't thought of that. I guess that's why you're a detective lieutenant and I'm still a uniformed cop.

Lt. Harper

Sometimes it's only the breaks, Larry.
