A scene from Plan 9 from Outer Space 1957
Gen. Roberts

Sit down. I understand, Colonel, you've been on tap for many of our saucer attacks.

Col. Edwards

I'm in charge of field operations, Sir.

Gen. Roberts

You believe there are such things as flying saucers, Colonel?

Col. Edwards

Yessir.

Gen. Roberts

You've seen them?

Col. Edwards

Yessir.

Gen. Roberts

You realize there's a government directive stating that there is no such thing as a flying saucer?

Col. Edwards

Yessir.

Gen Roberts

Do you stand by your statement that you've seen flying saucers?

Col. Edwards

Well, uh, yessir.

Gen. Roberts

This could mean a court marshall. Admitting this against direct orders.

Col. Edwards

General Roberts, may I speak freely?

Gen. Roberts

You may.

Col. Edwards

How could I hope to hold down my command if I didn't believe in what I saw and shot at?

Gen. Roberts

I, uh, like you Colonel.

Col. Edwards

Thank you, Sir.

Gen. Roberts

There are flying saucers. There's no doubt they are in our skies. They've been there for some time.

Col. Edwards

What're we going to do about them?

Gen. Roberts

Who knows?

In this scene

Gen. Roberts Lyle Talbot
