The Blob

Beware of the Blob

It creeps and leaps

And glides and slides

across the floor

Right through the door

and all around the wall

A splotch, a blotch

Be careful of the Blob

[ Chuckles ]

Well, it's a shooting star.

I thought you were supposed to

wish on shooting stars.

- But I did.

- We only saw one.

- But you see a lot of'em

up here at night.

- What?

Well, I mean, there's

a lot of'em out at night.

You don't see 'em in town.

That's why I come up here.

Oh, no, that's not what I mean.

- I mean, you can see 'em

better up here--

- I know what you mean, Steve.

No, no, it's not

what you think, Janey girl.

My name is Jane.

Just Jane.

For a little while, I thought

that "shooting star" business

wasn't just part of your line.

But it's not, Janey gir--

Jane, I've never brought

anyone up here before.

Never ?

Never.

Well, I may be crazy,

but... I believe you.

Well, you're not crazy.

[ Whistling ]

[ Explosion ]

Boy, that was close !

Come on. I want to see

if I can find it.

[ Dog Barking ]

[ Indistinct Sloshing ]

[ Barking Continues ]

[ Sloshing Continues ]

Shut up.

Get back inside.

- Get back in there.

- [ Dog Whimpering ]

[ Sloshing Continues ]

Huh. Huh.

[ Sloshing Continues ]

[ Gasps ]

[ Grunting ]

[ Grunting Continues ]

[ Screaming ]

I could've sworn it landed

just over this hill.

Maybe it's like lightning. Sometimes

you think it's striking right next door,

and it's really miles away.

No, I still think it's close by.

Well, do you want to go back

and try the other road?

No. Um... um...

well, I'm sorry

about the bumpy ride.

It's all right, Steve.

Well, listen, why don't we

go back to town and I'll apologize.

I'll apologize over a sandwich.

I mean, on me.

- Okay?

- Okay.

[ Jane Shouting ]

Steve, watch out !

[ Tires Screeching ]

- What was that?

- It looked like an old man.

[ Man Groaning ]

Where'd he go?

Hey, you okay ?

[ Groaning Continues ]

Oh ! Take me to a doctor !

- What's the matter ?

- I can't get it off !

- Well, here, let me try.

Maybe I can get it off.

- No ! You can't !

Okay. Come on.

We'll get you in the car.

[ Groaning Continues ]

- Yeah, okay, get in.

- It hurts.

Take it easy, now.

Here, better put this on.

Take it easy.

We'll get you there as fast as we can.

Boy, I hope the doctor's in.

Mrs. Porter, Dr. Hallen.

I'm leaving now.

Yes, I'll be back tomorrow

night, probably late.

No, I haven't

forgotten anything.

Ye-Yes, I'll be fine.

Look, Mrs. Porter, if you'll just keep

your eye on the house while I'm gone.

Thank you.

Good-bye.

[ Groaning Continues ]

- [ Honking Horn ]

- Come on !

- Hey, who's the cowboy?

- That's no cowboy.

That's Steve Andrews.

- What?

- Yeah, that's his container.

It's a real dog.

- Well, he can't do that to us.

- [ Engine Accelerating ]

[ Car Approaching ]

Hey, Doc.

It's all right. Come on.

- [ Groaning Continues ]

- Watch his hand.

Hey, Doc Hallen,

this man's been hurt.

Well, come on in.

- Wanna get the door ?

- [ Man Muttering ]

[ Groaning Continues ]

In there.

What's the matter with him?

l-- I don't know.

He got something on his hand.

- What do you mean?

- Well, we ran into him

down on the Old North Road.

- Ran into him?

- No, Doc, we picked him up

out on the road.

He was screaming

about this thing on his hand.

Let's take a look.

Take it easy, old-timer.

- What is it he's got on his hand?

- I don't know, Doc.

It was kind of like-- well,

a big blister on his fingers, you know?

- [ Groaning Continues ]

- Easy, now. Easy.

How are we gonna help you

if you don't let us see it?

Doc ! It's gotten bigger.

It was just on his hand before.

[ Dr. Hallen ]

Cover him with this, please.

I've got to give him something.

[ Groaning, Muttering ]

Take it easy, old-timer.

Everything's gonna be all right.

- Steve, uh, you know who he is?

- Huh?

- Do you have any idea who he is?

- Oh, no, no.

All right, take it easy.

There we are.

- Steve.

- Huh?

Could you drive out

to the place you found him?

See if you can find somebody

that knows what happened.

Right. Right.

- Steve?

- Yeah?

Would you turn out

the outside light when you go?

- I don't want to be disturbed.

- Sure, Doc. Sure.

What's up?

[ Fanfare ]

[ Jane Laughs ]

- Congratulations.

- Yeah? For what?

- "For what?" he says.

- Modest.

Mooch, quick, the crown.

[ Fanfare ]

[ Steve Laughing ]

Okay, I give up.

You just beat out

the champion, pal.

A little while ago

when you came into town.

Oh.

[ Chuckles ]

I get it. Well, thanks anyway,

but you can keep the crown.

No, no, no.

Wait a minute, Steve.

You just can't stop

being the champion like that.

You've gotta meet a challenger.

- You mean you?

- Me?

Did I say anything

about a race, guys?

Huh?

Not a word.

All right, look, it's been a ball,

you know? But I gotta go.

Yeah... we know how you go.

We're just not so sure

you should drive around so fast.

Now look, I just don't have time

to prove anything tonight.

Do you understand?

Well, who's asking you
