Walter Chang

Earl. Here's some swiss cheese and some bullets.

[over the radio]

We killed it, you got that!? We killed that motherhumper, come back!

Roger that, Burt, and congratulations. Be advised, however, that there are two more, repeat, two more motherhumpers.

Melvin Plug
[discovering the gun Burt gave him is empty]

Burt, you asshole! There's no bullets in this gun!

[taking the gun back with a smile]

Got you moving, didn't it?

I think I have a plan. Why don't we throw a bomb the way we want to go, and then when it goes off, we run like goddamn bastards!

[Everyone looks at her]

Pardon my French.

No, you don't understand, these creatures are absolutely unprecedented.

Nestor

Yeah, but where do they come from?

STAMPEDE! Stampede, Earl! Get out of the way, get out of the way!

[waking up]

You dumb shit. I was in a stampede once. Five hundred head, all hell-bent for the horizon.

Now, exactly how many cattle are required for a stampede, Earl? Is it three or more? Is there a minimum to 'pede?

I wish they'd stampede up your ass.

We can't hold still long! These things are damn smart! They're getting smarter by the minute!

That's fine! [Holds up a stick of dynamite] We got some new things to teach 'em!

[speaking to Burt over a radio and is trying to tell him about the Graboids]

Burt, it's under the ground! It's an underground monster! Now get out! Hurry!

[over the radio, as a Graboid comes through his rec room wall]

Jesus Chri...!
[transmission turns to static]

[About the dead Graboid]

Hey, Rhonda. You ever seen anything like this before?

Oh, sure, Earl, everybody knows about them. We just didn't tell you. Hell, nobody ever saw anything like this! We're really onto something here!

I'll tell you one thing: Old Chang won't be getting his slick mitts on this for no measly 15 bucks!

You got that right!
