Valentine McKee: I can't believe we said no to free beer! Valentine McKee: Roger that Burt, and congratulations. Be advised, however, that there are two more, repeat, two more motherhumpers. Earl Bassett: Is this a job for an intelligent man? Valentine McKee: Well, show me one and I'll ask him. Earl Bassett: We gotta run. We've got a schedule to keep. Valentine McKee: Yeah. See, we plan ahead, that way we don't do anything right now. Earl explained it to me. Earl Bassett: Damn it Valentine, you never plan ahead, you never take the long view, I mean here it is Monday and I'm already thinking of Wednesday... It is Monday right?
[Earl Bass and Valentine McKee are about to meet Rhonda LeBeck. Valentine McKee pictures her] Valentine McKee: You will have long blonde hair, big green eyes, world class breasts, ass that won't quit and legs that go all the way up.
[Earl Bass and Valentine McKee have just been chased by a 30 foot long monster] Rhonda LeBeck: Did you notice anything weird a minute ago? Valentine McKee: This valley is just one long smorgasbord. Earl Bassett: Damn it, listen to me. I'm older and wiser. Valentine McKee: Yeah, well you're half right.
[Burt Gummer looks at the monster fought off with his "toys"] Burt Gummer: Guess you broke into the wrong God damn rec room, didn't ya!
[Burt Gummer looks at his bomb shelter for perhaps the last time] Burt Gummer: Food for five years, a thousand gallons of gas, air filtration, water filtration, Geiger counter. Bomb shelter! Underground... God damn monsters. Earl Bassett: Dammit, Valentine! You never go for any girl unless she fits that stupid list of yours from top to bottom. Valentine McKee: Well, sure. Earl Bassett: Yeah, and it's dumber than my hind end! Like that Bobbie Lynn Dexter. Valentine McKee: Tammy Lynn Baxter! Earl Bassett: Doesn't matter. They're all the same: dead weight. "Ooh, I broke a nail!" Ugh! Makes my skin crawl. Valentine McKee: Yeah, well, I'm a victim of circumstance. Earl Bassett: I thought you called it your pecker. Valentine McKee: STAMPEDE! Stampede, Earl! Get out of the way, get out of the way! Earl Bassett: [waking up] You dumb shit. I was in a stampede once. Five hundred head, all hell-bent for the horizon. Valentine McKee: Now, exactly how many cattle are required for a stampede, Earl? Is it three or more? Is there a minimum to beat? Earl Bassett: I wish they'd stampede up your ass. Earl Bassett: No way those things can outrun these horses! Valentine McKee: Yeah, well, for all you know, they can fly. Earl Bassett: Well, there sure as hell ain't nothing to stop us now... everybody we know between here and Bixbe's already dead. Burt Gummer: No tracks, no sign, no spoor... you'd think after eating all those sheep they'd have to take a dump *some*place Valentine McKee: Come on you two, let's go, we're headed for the mountains! Burt Gummer: [Hefts bag of weapons] If that's how we're doin it, we're going prepared! Valentine McKee: We can't hold still long! These things are damn smart! They're getting smarter by the minute! Burt Gummer: That's fine!
[Holds up a stick of dynamite] Burt Gummer: We got some new things to teach 'em! Rhonda LeBeck: They only respond to vibration, right? Couldn't we... distract them somehow? Valentine McKee: Yeah, something to keep 'em busy, like a... like a decoy! Earl Bassett: Hey Melvin... wanna make a buck? Valentine McKee: That's how they git you. They're under the goddamned ground! Valentine McKee: Hey - check this out! I found the ass end! Valentine McKee: hearing music from below ground] So where the hell's that goddamn golden oldie comin' from? Valentine McKee: What the hell is going on! I mean what the hell is going on! Valentine McKee: I've got a goddamn plan! Earl Bassett: Hey, Rhonda you ever seen anything like this before? Valentine McKee: Oh, sure Earl. Everyone knows about them we just didn't tell you.
[Burt cuts off a piece of fuse for a bomb for Earl] Earl Bassett: What kind of fuse is that? Burt Gummer: Cannon fuse Earl Bassett: What the hell do you use it for? Burt Gummer: My cannon! Earl Bassett: Dammit, I'm gonna kick his ass! Valentine McKee: I'm gonna help you.
[Ground Starts to bulge] Earl Bassett: Must be a million of them!
[Grabiod breaks through the surface of the ground] Valentine McKee: Nope, just one! Earl Bassett: Run for it? Running's not a plan! Running's what you do, once a plan fails! Valentine McKee: Good luck shithead. Earl Bassett: Don't worry about me jerkoff. Valentine McKee: Good morning Mr. Bassett, this is your wake up call. Please move your ass. Earl Bassett: They must be long gone by now. Valentine McKee: Yeah. Hey, why don't you go take a little stroll and find out? Earl Bassett: No breakfast? Valentine McKee: I did it yesterday. It was baloney and beans. Earl Bassett: No, it was eggs. I made eggs. Over easy. Valentine McKee: The hell you did! Baloney and beans. It's your turn!
[They go through a quick game of paper-rock-scissors, which Valentine loses] Valentine McKee: Well, I guess when I'm your age, I'll forget what I eat, too. Earl Bassett: What're you bringin' that vacuum cleaner, for? Valentine McKee: I like this vacuum cleaner. Earl Bassett: Y'never use it. Valentine McKee: Well, it's good for parts.
[as the graboid feels at the building] Valentine McKee: What's it doing, Rhonda? Rhonda LeBeck: Why do you keep asking me? Rhonda LeBeck: [to Val] Well, thanks for everything, you know, saving my life and stuff. Rhonda LeBeck: I think I have a plan. Why don't we throw a bomb the way we want to go and then when it goes off, we run like goddamn bastards!
[Everyone looks at her] Rhonda LeBeck: Pardon my French. Earl Bassett: Did you know about these things? Valentine McKee: Of course she did! Everyone knows about these, we just didn't tell you. Of course nobodies seen anything like this before.
[Monster slams into a concrete retaining wall] Earl Bassett: Stupid son-of-a-bitch, knocked itself cold! Valentine McKee: Cold, my ass, he's dead! We killed it. We killed it! *Fuck you!*
