Elliott
[upon encountering E.T., running excitedly into the house]
Mom, mom, there's somethin' out there...It's in the toolshed. He threw the ball at me...Quiet! [the other boys obey, he speaks in a hushed tone] Nobody go out there.
Michael
You stay here, Mom, and we'll check it out!
Mary
And put those knives back!
Mary
[Elliott grabs her hands and pulls her outside as well]
It's O.K., Elliott! Let's go get the flashlight.
