:22:01
You are what you... eat.
:22:04
And the survival of the fittest, an' that. Whoa!
:22:09
That's why so many people...
are jogging and eating lots of All-Bran, I expect.

:22:14
Only the fittest will survive the outcome
of the nuclear holocaust.

:22:19
They eat lots of beans, too.
:22:21
They give you wind, beans do.
:22:23
You certainly shouldn't eat beans, James.
:22:26
Let's not get personal, ducks.
:22:28
I'm trying to have a scientific discussion.
:22:34
If there really is going to be a war,
who do you think will win?

:22:39
Well,
the Americans have tactile nuclear superiority,

:22:43
due to their IBMs and their polar submarines.
:22:47
But in the event of a pre-emptive strike,
:22:49
innumerate Russian hordes
will sweep across the plains of Central Europe.

:22:55
Then the US Technical Air Force
will come roaring in

:22:58
with their Superhawks, B-17 s and B-19s,
bristling with guns! Terrifically armed!

:23:03
"OK, you guys! Let's go!"
:23:06
They'd razzor the Russky defences to the ground.
:23:08
Then the marines would parachute in
and round up the population.

:23:12
After that, the big generals would go over -
like er... lke and Monty.

:23:16
Then the Russians would capitulate,
and there would be a condition of surrender.

:23:20
Then they'd instil free and fair elections.
:23:23
One man, one vote.
:23:25
And women too, nowadays, of course.
:23:27
And thus, the Communist threat
to the Free Worid would be neutrified,

:23:31
and democratic principles
would be instilled throughout Russia,

:23:34
whether they liked it or not.
:23:36
That's the worid scenario as I see it,
at this moment in time.

:23:40
Monty. Wasn't he in the war?
- Well, of course he was.

:23:44
He practically won it.
:23:46
You remember, dear.
:23:48
Big beret with badges on it.
:23:50
Tanks. The Desert Rats. RI Alamo.
:23:56
But that was ages ago, dear.
:23:59
Yes, well, I expect he's getting on a bit.
