Marybeth What happens at the end of all those stories, Stokely? How does Invasion of the Body Snatchers turn out?
They get us. They win. We lose.
Marybeth Maybe we really win. I mean, Stan didn't look unhappy.
That's because that wasn't Stan. They took away who he was.
Marybeth Maybe they just bettered who he was. Cleared away his confusion. I know you pride yourself on being the outsider, but aren't you tired of pretending to be something you're not? I know I am.
Zeke, it is her!
Marybeth She's lying, she's trying to fake you out. We don't know what she is. Gay? Straight? Alien?
Answer me something, Marybeth... why are you naked?
Marybeth Does it bother you, Zeke? My body? I'm getting kind of used to it myself.
Marybeth You know, in my world Casey, there were limitless oceans as far as the eye could see. Beautiful, huh? Till it started to dry out. So I escaped, came here, and I met you, all of you. And all of you were different from the others. You were lost and lonely, just like me. And I thought that maybe I could give you a taste of my world. A world without anger, without fear, without attitude. Where the underachiever goes home at night to parents who care. The jock can be smart, the ugly duckling beautiful, and the class wuss doesn't have to live in terror. And the new girl, well - the new girl, she can just fit right in with anybody. People who are just like her. You see Casey, even Marybeth's feelings can be hurt by a bunch of pathetic, lost, little outcasts who truly believe that their disaffected lonely life is the only way they can survive. I can make you a part of something so special, Casey, so perfect, so fearless... Don't you want that, Casey?
I'd rather be afraid!
Marybeth Fine. All right. Have it your way! 'Cause this is where your land of fiction gets it right: we win. End of story!
