Little Green Men Line-by-Line

[Kertrats47]

QUARK: What kind of interference?

 

[Orac]

Rom: I'm not sure. Could be solar flares, or maybe ionic interference. Or I suppose it could be beta radiation, but that's only produced by nuclear fission.

 

[May 20]

QUARK: Don't be an idiot. Nuclear fission doesn't happen within planetary atmospheres.

 

[sekundant]

NOG: It does here. In the twentieth century humans used crude nuclear reactors as weapons. They called them atom bombs. They used to blow them up all the time.

 

[Sidewinder]

QUARK: They irradiated their own planet?

 

[Kertrats47]

ROM: If Nog says so, they did. He knows all about Earth history.

 

[mattman8907]

QUARK: You'd better fix those translators fast. The sooner we start talking to these savages, the better off we'll be.

 

[JanewayRulz!]

(Nurse Garland is replacing one of her hairpins.)
ROM: Vo yop toe pah?

 

[sekundant]

CARLSON: He seems to want something from you.

 

[Athena28]

GARLAND: You'd better tell him I'm your girl.

 

[JanewayRulz!]

ROM: Yop triska gleep dosta grenla. (and points at her hair)

 

[Kertrats47]

CARLSON: I think he wants your hairpin.

 

[Orac]

Garland: If you say so, Professor. Here you go.

 

[sekundant]

ROM: Neep gren. Now where's that reset button?

 

[Athena28]

GARLAND: Ouch. That looks like it hurts.

 

[Kertrats47]

CARLSON: He doesn't seem to mind. I wish I could get some help. I don't know why we can't bring in a few more experts.

 

[sekundant]

GARLAND: Let's face it, Jeff, when it comes to beings from another planet, we don't have any experts. You'll find a way to communicate with them, darling. I know you will.
(Carlson lights two cigarettes and gives one to Garland.)
GARLAND: Imagine the possibilities. Who knows what they could teach us. A few years from now, mankind could have rocket ships of our own. We could travel the galaxy, exploring new worlds and new civilisations.
(Groan or cheer, your choice.)

 

[Kertrats47]

CARLSON: Always the dreamer.

 

[JanewayRulz!]

GARLAND: That's why you love me.

 

[May 20]

CARLSON: It's funny, isn't it? Here we are in the middle of one of the greatest discoveries in human history, and all I can think about is what you're going to look like in your wedding dress.
