Quotes4

  • [a mysterious catalog is delivered]
  • Dr. Cal Meacham: This isn't paper, it's some kind of metal!
  • [reads]
  • Dr. Cal Meacham: "Interociter incorporating planetary generator". "Interocitor with voltarator". "With astroscope".
  • Joe Wilson: Here's something my wife could use in the house. An "interocitor incorporating an electron sorter."
  • Dr. Cal Meacham: Oh, she'd probably gain 20 pounds while it did all the work for her. You know, Joe, according to this, there's no limit to what it can do. Laying a 4-lane highway at the rate of a mile a minute would be a cinch.
  • Joe Wilson: Cal... maybe we've been working too hard.
  • Dr. Cal Meacham: "Complete line of interocitor parts, incorporating greater advances than hitherto known in the field of electronics." What exactly is an interocitor?
  • Joe Wilson: I don't know, and I don't want to know.
  • Dr. Cal Meacham: Well, I do. I want to know what it is and what it does. Order the list of parts on these pages.
  • Joe Wilson: Cal, I - I know everybody's seeing flying saucers and screwy lights up in the sky. Well, you can put me in the booby hatch too, because, so help me, I saw this ship turn a bright green up there.
  • Dr. Cal Meacham: Are you sure, Joe?
  • Joe Wilson: Positive.
  • Dr. Cal Meacham: Did you hear anything?
  • Joe Wilson: Yes. A high-frequency howl, very high, all the time your ship was...
  • Dr. Cal Meacham: Green. Did Webb see it?
  • Joe Wilson: Unless he's blind.
  • Dr. Cal Meacham: Check him.
  • Joe Wilson: Right.
  • Dr. Cal Meacham: Oh, and Joe... until we find out what happened, all three of us were blind.
  • Joe Wilson: There isn't any reason around here.
  • Joe Wilson: Half an hour late. That's my boss - the only guy in the world who can travel by jet and still be late.
