I have a very nice room on the second floor.
It gets the sun all day long.

:24:06
Can I help you look for the spaceman?
I know what he looks like.

:24:09
- He's got a big square head with three eyes.
- That's enough, Bobby. It's late. Excuse me.

:24:15
We mustn't annoy Mr Carpenter,
or he won't want to stay here.

:24:20
He's really a dear little boy,
and quiet as a mouse.

:24:24
- You're a long way from home, aren't you?
- How did you know?

:24:28
Oh. I can tell a New England accent
a mile away.

:24:34
Now we take you to Miami Beach,
Florida, fork report from Gabriel Heatter.

:24:39
Mr Heatter?
:24:40
And now on this Sunday morning
we ask some questions

:24:44
that have been haunting
the entire nation for two whole days.

:24:47
This creature: where is he? What is he up to?
:24:52
If he can build a spaceship
that can fly to Earth,

:24:55
and a robot that can
destroy our tanks and guns,

:24:59
what other terrors can he unleash at will?
:25:02
Obviously, the monster must be found.
:25:05
He must be tracked down like a wild animal.
:25:07
He must be destroyed.
:25:10
But where would such a creature hide?
:25:12
Would he disappear into the north woods?
:25:15
Would he crawl into the sewers
of some great city?

:25:19
Everybody agrees there is grave danger.
:25:22
The question remains:
what can we do to protect ourselves?

:25:26
What measures can we take to neutralize this
menace from another world?

:25:32
Destroy it? Of course, but how?
:25:35
And if we do destroy it,
what do we face in retaliation?

:25:39
- It's not a simple problem... - George,
turn it off. I'm trying to concentrate.

:25:44
Why doesn't the government do something?
:25:47
What can they do?
They're only people, like us.

:25:49
People, my foot! They're Democrats.
:25:52
It gives you the shakes.
:25:54
He's got that robot standing there,
just waiting for orders to destroy us.

:25:58
This spaceman, or whatever he is.
We automatically assume he's a menace.
