The 27th Day Page #5

Crazy, isn't it?

I just can't believe it.

You're lucky the horses

aren't here.

Hey!

Blankets! The human kind.

Which one would madam prefer?

The upstairs or downstairs?

Look, before we were already settled down

I think we'd rather

start by rearranging

the furniture, don't you?

One duplex, coming up.

- Cocktails, anyone?

- You forced me.

- Cheers.

- Good luck.

Say, that's

good.Where'd you learn

to fix such a good Martini?

It was easy.

You forgot the Vermouth.

Are you ready for dinner?

Peanut butter and what?

No thanks. I'm not hungry.

I'm going to bed.

Yeah, me, too.

Why don't you take your drink

and go look at the moonlight?

Women!

Oh, Jonathan!

Why don't you just call me John?

Alright, John.

I trust you're a sound sleeper?

I don't walk in my sleep

if that's what you mean.

That exactly what I meant.

He goes around every hour on the hour.

I'd almost forgotten

we were hiding.

I know what you mean.

Miss Wingate was seen

hurling a small object into the sea.

Her gentleman friend, Harry

bellows, who witnessed

the incident

Reported that the girl

appeared highly distraught.

The populations of

Rockhurst Cove and

other coastal communities

are being evacuated on

the assumption that

the object might very

well have been a mine.

There has been much speculation on

on both sides of the English Channel

" Quai d'Orsay "announced that there are no

reasons for worry

In Normandy and British regions.

Late reports from England

confirmed that there has sporadic rioting.

British government sources indicate

they believe the Wingate girl

might have been acting under the alien's

order.

Miss Wingate is believed

to be hiding with

Jonathan Clark, who has

been missing several days.

The British have assumed

that the object in

question was a weapon.

And the London press is

actively speculating

That all 5 of the aliens' visitors

may be acting under orders

to place the alleged weapons

in strategic positions.

All we have to do is get

rid of our capsules, huh?

Why such a panic?

What do you expect?

Reason, discipline, restraint?

Those people out there,

I feel sorry for them.

What do I do?

They're bound with fear. They're

frightened, every one of them.

Ever since the alien came

into their lives, they

have been waiting.Waiting

for they don't know what.

Those characters you're

feeling sorry for are so full of hate

they'd lynch us if they

get their hands on us.

I know.

I've forgotten how easy hate comes about.

People hate because

fear, and they

fear anything they

can't understand.

Which is almost everything.

You're not terribly fond

of people, are you?

Right now, I could

take 'em or leave 'em.
