:06:02
Me neither.
:06:05
Let's get that mess cleaned up!
:06:09
Let's get some cribbin' on that roof!
:06:11
Buck up, Homer.
You're a Coalwood boy.
:06:14
When you get down in the mine,
get that coal shovel in your hand...
:06:17
feel just as natural to you
as a tick on a dog.
:06:21
Get that slate off the loader!
:06:23
It's the radio signal transmitted
by the Soviet Sputnik.
:06:26
Listen for the sound which forevermore
separates the old from the new.
:06:41
That's it? That's the Sputnik?
:06:43
- That's Sputnik.
- Well, big deal.
:06:46
Big deal?
What you fail to grasp...
:06:49
is that the sound you're hearin'
is bein' transmitted by an object...
:06:52
that is travelin'
at 18,000 miles per hour...
:06:54
559 miles high,
and orbitin' the Earth--
:06:58
- Shut up!
- Boys, not in my class!
:07:02
Thank you, Quentin.
:07:04
Now Quentin's right, y'all.
:07:07
Sputnik is a milestone in history.
:07:10
Things'll never be the same again.
:07:14
- What do you think about that, Homer?
- Well, yes, ma'am.
:07:17
Cat got your tongue?
:07:19
We were talkin'
about bein' in orbit...
:07:21
hundreds of miles
away from the Earth.
:07:24
You know anything about that?
:07:26
No, ma'am.
:07:29
I got my eye on you, boy.
:07:31
Now who can tell me
why Sputnik is so important?
:07:34
We ought to just shoot
the damn thing down.
:07:37
It's got one of them
little spy cameras in it.
:07:39
Ittakes pictures of every one
of our missile bases.
:07:42
This country'd better get on the ball
before it's too late.
:07:46
All I know is this Sputnik
had better show up soon.
:07:50
I'm gettin' a crick in my neck.
:07:52
All right. What you need to do
is take her to the movies.
:07:54
Somethin' scary, like
"Frankenstein Meets the Wolfman."
:07:57
Then you take your arm and put it up
round the back of her chair, like so.
