Earth vs. the Flying Saucers Page #3

Number 12 tomorrow after this?

-I have to.

-Why?

With a television pickup,

cameras and microphone.

This time I'm gonna know

what's happening up there and why.

Come on, let's finish our dinner.

Checking TV pickup.

Getting a good image?

Fine.

TV's okay. I'll be down

in a couple of minutes.

Tell them to hurry it up.

Do you notice anything different

since you were here last?

-Soundproofing?

-That's right.

You could fire a cannon off outside

and not hear it down here.

Number 12 okay for takeoff.

As an old rocket man from way back,

I'd rather watch from ground level.

Dr. Marvin. Dr. Marvin.

Marvin here.

You getting ready for a siege?

Russ and I are gonna take turns

monitoring this one.

For days, if necessary.

Soundproof privacy and the last word

in scientific solitude.

-Happy honeymoon, darling.

-Thanks, Dad.

Prepare rocket for launching.

Prepare rocket for launching.

Rocket Number 12 will be launched

in five minutes.

Four minutes to zero.

-Take it up at zero, Major Kimberly.

-Okay.

Stand by.

Observation Tower A, come in.

Evans, Radar to Tower A.

-Observation Tower A, Sergeant Nash.

-UFO due west, approaching fast.

-What does it look like?

-Can't tell yet.

I'll call when I get a better reading.

-Do that.

-As you were, sergeant.

Unidentified flying object reported

due west, sir. Probably a buzzard.

Sergeant Nash,

Observation Tower A. What?

Forget it, Walters,

this is no time for gags.

It's two minutes to zero.

Sentry at West Gate has spotted

a flying saucer, sir.

Evans, Radar to Tower A.

Tower A, Nash.

I got a better reading on my scope.

That UFO is over the west sentry post.

-It look like a flying saucer, Evans?

-Yes, it does.

Sky Hook Control

to approaching object.

What is it?

I wouldn't know.

Connect me with Dr. Marvin's lab.

The line is dead.

Look at that, general.

It's landing.

Battery, prepare to fire.

Fire!

They set up an electronic screen.

The artillery doesn't penetrate.

Lines are out.

Abandon all firing positions.

Mike's gone dead.

Try the phone.

The operator doesn't answer.

Look.

-What's happening?

-I don't know. I--

I'm scared, Russ.

They'll-- They'll dig us out.

Where am I? What--?

We are speaking to you through the

translating device above your head.

Can you understand us?

Yes, and I hope

you can understand me.

Whoever you are,

whatever you are...

...you'll regret what you did

at the project.

Perhaps you can explain why,

after contacting Dr. Marvin...

...we were met with violence.

-You've contacted Dr. Marvin?

-We spoke to him.

All he heard was meaningless sounds.

The same kind of sounds I just heard.

We had hoped a sufficient adjustment
