The War of the Worlds (1953) Soundboard Edit

A big family must be fun I imagine it makes you feel you belong to something oh it does maybe that's why I feel kind of lost right now

A great silence fell over half of europe as all communication was disrupted

A mob attacked us we don't know what happened to the rest

A plane will pinpoint the target for the drop from six miles up

A stream of flight rose swiftly to a torrent

A strong light shocks them they're not accustomed to it

According to information from foreign sources they're working to some kind of a plan

After all that men could do had failed the martians were destroyed and humanity was saved by the littlest things which god in his wisdom had put upon this earth

After it stopped all that loose earth and stuff shook down over it

All about it!

All about the martian invasion! they're in new york and miama!

All command posts stand by to fire

All I know is they say it's as big as a house and practically red hot

All major highways have been marked to lead you to shelter and welfare centers in the hills

All over the world their machines began to stop and fall

All radio is dead

All right come over here and give us a hand!

All right fellas the general will see you now

All right folks let me through let me through

All right i've seen enough

All right on the double get me back to sixth army headquarters hurry up!

All that sand will keep the heat in for a long time

All we've seen is the heat ray they use

Allemande left and the ladies star gents walk around but not too far

Allemande left and the ladies star gents walk around but not too far (2)

Almighty and most merciful father we have erred and strayed from thy ways like lost sheep

Almost cold now ain't it

Amen

And I will dwell in the house of the lord forever

And now fought with the terrible weapons of super science menacing all mankind and every creature on earth comes the war of the worlds

And there it comes again!

And this the blood of a martian

And we have done those things which we ought not to have done

And where are we southwest of corona somewhere

And you want to know what I was thinking

Any candles around

Any news from abroad

Anybody get a look at the martians yet

Anyone have a flashlight

Anything from them yet

Apparently they're coming down all over

Are they sure it's a meteor it didn't come down like one

Are you all right

As martians swept northward toward london the british cabinet stayed in session coordinating every item of information that could be gathered passing it on to the united nations in new york

As more of their cylinders came from the mysterious depths of space their war machines awesome in their power and complexity created a wave of fear which swept into all corners of the world

As the martians burnt fields and forests and great cities fell before them huge populations were driven from their homes

Ask him he's back at pacific tech

At least that's what I think I don't really know

At night temperatures drop far below zero even at its equator

Attention all batteries prepare for volley fire repeat prepare for volley fire

Attention please four minutes to bomb time

Attention please two minutes to bomb time prepare to take shelter

Attention stand by

Azimuth reading 160 degrees 30 minutes

Be careful buck yeah watch it buck easy buck man

Beings from another world

Better than a lion farm or a snake pit we won't have to feed it

Big i'll bet it's as big as anything that ever lit in california

Bilderbeck has calculated how long we have got until martians take over the entire world

Bilderbeck!

Blood

Boy is that something! let's go see!

Boy that had me scared

Boy that's big!

Boy you could fry eggs on that thing!

Brazil checking

Bring that hose over here

But colonel shooting's no good it's always been a good persuader

But I think I know where she'll be

But i'm happy to meet you anyway

But it's a whale of a size

But its temperature is close to 270 degrees below zero and ice lies 15000 miles deep on its surface

But the ranger said a scientist is coming from pacific tech

But there are observers down in the valley in a forward bunker

But they seem to murder everything that moves

But you'll get first crack at them

But you're not going to you're not the kind

Call victorville tell them I want the fastest plane they've got

Can't get near enough to see it very well it's too hot

Can't we get out of here

Can't you fools

Carbon canyon

Checking dover blanked out

Clayton forrester ever hear of him

Clear the way

Colonel heffner's in charge

Come on

Come on break it up

Come on come on it's your last chance to get out of here

Come on come on keep going keep going keep moving

Come on jump in will you

Come on out we're friends that's right we welcome you we're friends yeah

Company tactical net out of action

Cut across their lines of magnetic force and any object will simply cease to exist

Cylinder reported down by huntington beach

D o to number three come in

Darnedest thing I ever saw the way that's unscrewing

Deliver us from the fear which has come upon us from the evil that grows ever nearer from the terror that soon will knock upon the very door of this thy house

Did it do you any good

Did that mob grab the trucks ahead of me

Did you see it come down yes I was fishing up in the hills

Did you watch it come down I seen it from our window

Direct cable communication is being maintained with washington but there's no radio at all

Do you have a pin

Do you have a pocket compass yeah

Do you see anything outside

Don't fool around with something when you don't know what it is

Don't go son stay with us

Don't you live at home no on the campus

Dr forrester believes they generate atomic force without the heavy screening we use

Dr forrester get out of here!

Dr forrester says they're some kind of advanced civilization

Duprey bilderbeck are you

Eighty west by 38 north

Electronic eye like a television camera it's looking for us

Every effort against the tremendous power of their other world antagonists ended in the same frantic rout

Everybody listen carefully the martians are coming this way we must evacuate the city take food and water and extra clothing with you

Everybody out of here! everybody

Everybody out of here! everybody out!

Everybody understands when you wave the white flag you want to be friends

Everything human doesn't have to look like you and me

Everywhere all around the world people have been driven from their homes

Evidently there's a shift in their spectrum

Excuse me

Excuse me gentlemen

Feels pretty darn hot!

Fifteen seconds

Fifty seconds

Fighting outside los angeles!

Finally found an abandoned truck

Fire!

First and third you balance and swing promenade the outside ring

First thing you get there arrange for the pacific tech scientists to monitor the drop

Flying wing this is the tower clear for take off over

Forlorn hope but there is a chance

Forrester everybody's been looking for you

Forrester!

Forrester's the man behind the new atomic engines

Forty eight north two west

Forty seconds

From there the news was forwarded to washington because here was the only remaining unassailed strategic point

From what's coming through nobody's stopped them yet

Future history he said yes if any

General mann

General mann I was told to expect you sir i'm colonel heffner

General mann is in charge of intelligence for the pacific area

General we heard that dr clayton forrester was out there with you

Get down!

Get in back of hill three repeat hill three

Get moving on the double

Get off buster!

Get over! butt out!

Get those 30s over here

Good to see you general

Gratzman did you get those biotics no I thought you had them

Gratzman!

Half tracks okay

Happens every 18 20 years they say

Harold harold look here a minute and step over to your left just a little and hold it smile

Have some well I might just do that

He liked you

He'll tell us

He's flying high so it'll take a few seconds to come down

He's nuts come on jump in

He's top man in astro and nuclear physics he knows all about meteors

Heffner

Hello tower this is air force flying wing ready for takeoff over

Hello! hello hello there what can you see

Here comes another truck!

Here I i've got an old sugar sack in my car

Here this way the stairway up to the attic

Here we are in

Here we are right between them

Here's an instance

Here's that los angeles picture sir

Hey grab this!

Hey it's moving!

Hey let's go find it

Hey look look all the lights in town have gone out

Hey that looks good

Hey that needle isn't pointing north

Hey the phone's gone dead!

Hey there open up

Hey there open up (2)

Hey you better get out of here!

Hey you!

Hey! the lights!

Hey! they cut me off! they got my truck!

Hi sir

Hold 'em as long as you can right sir

Hold it right there general please

Hold it! hold it a minute!

How about that

How could it happen to everybody's watch all together

How do you do general would you care for some coffee

How do you do sir

How long was I out hours

How they gonna understand us we'll talk in sign language they'll understand us all right sure sure

How would I know

Hup! as you were

Hurry up! jump in!

I can fly bilderbeck down in your plane

I couldn't see much in the dark but it was one

I didn't know how to stop you

I don't know any more than you do joe

I don't know anything about other trucks

I don't remember ever seeing blood crystals as anemic as these

I don't understand why a meteor that size didn't make a bigger crater

I feel like I did one time when I was small awful scared and lonesome

I got a message for you

I guess most of it's buried

I have no close folks my parents died when I was a kid

I haven't any family I come from a big one there's nine of us all in minnesota except me

I haven't seen you since oak ridge

I I got I got knocked under our truck duprey pulled me out

I just came to tell you everyone has been alerted

I know we've walked halfway from corona

I know you sent word to the sixth army command

I launched high level bombers dropped everything they can carry

I liked him

I read someplace mars is near the earth right now

I stayed right by that door praying for the one who loved me best to come and find me

I suppose they've neutralized all communications here not all sir radio's out but our field phones are okay so far

I teach library science over at usc

I think i'll wait around until it cools off

I think somebody ought to check on it over

I think that gizmo is a machine from another planet

I think they're scientists

I think we should put up a few picnic tables no no then they'd bring their own lunches

I think we should try to make them understand we mean them no harm

I thought you might be interested

I want to know if the city must be evacuated

I want your battery here

I warned them to be ready if they have to evacuate

I wonder who owns this property you might be able to make a dime out of this

I'd be delighted if you'd stay at my house dr forrester

I'd like to borrow your car and take a look at it in the morning

I'd say our effective losses were nearly 60 percent men 90 percent materiel

I'd wandered off i've forgotten why but the family and whole crowds of neighbors were hunting for me

I'll give you $500 for your place

I'll let them know

I'll make it a thousand

I'll post two or three deputies they can make sure it doesn't start any more fires too

I'll send wire orders ahead of you and have the area clear all round

I'm gonna get a closer look at it

I'm gonna see who's coming

I'm here to make up a report not to interfere with the operations you've set up you're still in command

I'm looking for some pacific tech professors!

I'm sylvia van buren

I've been as close to them as anyone and never close enough for any real observation

I've done all I can in there you go back

I've seen news off the pacific cables sydney australia pinang rangoon india

If it were heavy and solid it would have made a tremendous crater when it landed

If it's a moving target follow up from there

If it's men from mars we ought to let them know we're friendly

If the a bomb fails that is

If they saw it they took it they'll grab anything on wheels

If they start anything we can blast them right off the earth

If they're more advanced than us they should be nearer the creator for that reason

If they're mortal they must have mortal weaknesses they'll be stopped somehow

If this is actually a lens we can find out about their optics

If this keeps up it'll be a guide for the plane when it comes over

If we could gather all the energy expended in just one square dance we could send that meteor back to where it came from

If you have no goggles turn away remember the heat flash and compression that follow are dangerous

If you tell me of a place in town I i could clean up

In event the a bomb failed evacuate all cities in danger of attack

In every country government officials met in desperate conclave seeking ways to coordinate their defenses with those of other nations

In our peril we plead succor and comfort us in this hour please god

In the first world war and for the first time in the history of man nations combined to fight against nations using the crude weapons of those days

In this world and the next amen

Interesting very interesting

Is it true professor you've had reports of landings in other places in canada

Is it your opinion the army can hold them

Is that a fireball or something

Is that machine

Is that possible if they do it it is

Is that some kind of a flying machine

Is that the plane now yes he's signaling

Isn't it curious how everything about them seems to be in threes

It became a giant stampede without order and without goal

It can happen any minute

It did not occur to mankind that a swift fate might be hanging over us or that from the blackness of outer space we were being scrutinized and studied

It didn't stop them guns tanks bombs they're like toys against them!

It looks like they're gonna come out of that gully pretty soon we'll have to rush our defenses to be ready when they do

It might give us something something we could use

It must be all right

It must've hit way up there and then skidded along the gully

It neutralizes mesons somehow

It shows full details of the martian nest outside los angeles

It was one of them

It was plain the martians appreciated the strategic significance of the british isles

It was the beginning of the rout of civilization of the massacre of humanity

It was uncle matthew who found me

It will drop a flare that's the only way we dare put a light on them

It won't start any more fires

It'll be a moving target prepare to follow up

It'll be a real good attraction for sunday drivers

It'll end only one way we're beaten

It'll give us time to search out some weakness in the martians

It'll tell us a lot about their metals and alloys

It's a bomb it don't go off last night maybe it's gonna go off now huh

It's about ten or 12 miles from here over by linda rosa

It's about that meteor they say it's a whopper

It's an enemy sneak attack let's get out of here

It's blocked here too

It's dead

It's gone

It's gonna be like having a gold mine in our own backyard

It's like this all over

It's no meteor that's for sure

It's only speculation

It's pointing to the gully where that meteor came down

It's pulling out

It's radioactive

It's seen him

It's that meteor

It's too late now he's too far away

It's vital to prevent the martian machines from linking up once they do they adopt an extraordinary military tactic

It's wet

Jeepers mine ain't working what is this

Joe! joe! lend a hand over here!

Jump for it!

Jump! get under cover!

Just think of that folks

Keep them rolling there keep going come on come on!

Let 'em have it!

Let me get in there! out of the way! out of the way!

Let me through please!

Look at the fire out there!

Look at this thing it's going crazy

Look look! they're using those protective blisters again

Look out!

Look there!

Look you're tired you've been up all night you cracked up in a plane slept in a ditch you wanna know something it doesn't show on you at all

Look!

Looks like the fishing was good

Lucky it didn't come down in the middle of town

Make every effort to contact the civil authorities

Mark it up

Mars is more than 140 million miles from the sun and for centuries it has been in the last stages of exhaustion

Maybe it's a comet

Maybe these are not men not like us

Maybe they want to take us alive

Maybe they're not too sure we're here

Maybe they've gone another way

Maybe we ought to keep people away from it huh might be a good idea

Meanwhile we'll have a chance to observe them

Men from mars

Meteors always run heavy

Miss van buren

Mm hm

Money's no good anymore mac!

Montreal's blacked out

Mortar company all units set and ready

Move in a little thank you

Must be somebody in there

My orders are not to go into action unless they move out of the shelter of that gully

My uncle dr matthew collins pastor of the community church

My watch has stopped oh i've got the time huh mine's stopped too so has mine

Never mind i'll get them

Newly fallen cylinders are elongated

No

No he's not we tried to get him there he hasn't shown up

No I i'm looking for someone

No I just told them the local situation

No mr secretary we've had nothing from san francisco for over five hours

No no it's supported from the ground by rays probably some form of magnetic flux like invisible legs

No not yet

No one would have believed in the middle of the 20th century that human affairs were being watched keenly and closely by intelligences greater than man's

No radio

No real attempt has been made to communicate with them you know

No smooching in the dark folks

No! no! no!

Not down in full force yet but developing

Not even with the bombing plane that's coming over

Not in canada yet but in bordeaux france some in spain

Nothing like this has ever been exploded before and we're gonna be pretty darn close

Nothing more's come through

Now dr forrester what about these meteor machines

Now for your information the enemy is 25 or 30 miles outside los angeles

Now from the data from that picture the air force took earlier tonight what we've got out there is the original pilot ship

Now i'll make a statement to those reporters right

Now if you'll step over here please

Now locate your observation post on this hill

Now the minute action begins and a pattern of defense develops i'll get my report to washington

Now there's no choice the white house will confirm an order to use the atom bomb

Now this is the only place we've had time to surround them with sufficient force to contain them

Now this much is certain

Now we've been warned that this bomb is ten times more powerful than anything previously used it's the latest thing in nuclear fission

Now what it may be isn't clear yet simply because once they begin to move no more news comes out of that area

Number six do you hear me

Number three to d o number three to d o

O lord we pray thee grant us the miracle of thy divine intervention

Of all the worlds that the intelligences on mars could see and study only our own warm earth was green with vegetation bright with water and possessed a cloudy atmosphere eloquent of fertility

Oh and here's professor mcpherson of the canadian meteorological research council

Oh colonel can you tell us anything about this plane that's coming over

Oh I could bawl my head off

Oh i've been so scared

Oh it hit sideways and skidded in

Oh it was nearer than that

Oh it's possible at least it seems certain they're from some planet other than our own

Oh let it go if you're interested in martian blood you'll get all you want right after the plane drops the bomb

Oh look! look!

Oh this is pastor collins

Oh uncle matthew this is dr clayton forrester

Oh what's he like

Oh! well you certainly don't look like yourself in that getup dr forrester

Okay send the tanker in but you can stand by until that thing cools off over

Okay the insurance is paid up

On the basis of its observations the others were guided down

Once they had breathed our air germs which no longer affect us began to kill them

One sixty 30

Order all command posts everything pulled back north of highway 60 tunnel bunker! right

Our best hope lies in what you people can develop to help us

Over here man! it's burning this way

Pattern wise one lands then two making groups of threes joined magnetically

People in town started to follow us don't let them come anywhere near here

Position your recoilless 75s back here

Precedent in our own evolution makes it possible that they have more than one brain you mean two three

Probably won't be cool for another 24 hours

Quick help me! we've got to stop them!

Quick! fire over there!

Reckon this is solid all through here

Runner where's a runner

Same thing that happened on the pacific coast

Santiago has two cylinders

Say do you have a match no i'm sorry I don't smoke

Seventy five all units set and ready

She'll be in a church near the door

She's kind of lost

Sheriff bogany head of local control

Sheriff what's going on

Sheriff you'd better get word to the military you're going to need them out here

Shouldn't you try to communicate with them first and shoot later if you have to

Six days you said six days

So is the town I notice

Somebody's found some candles

Something moved out there

Something's happening to them

Sorry I have no time

South america

Stand by to fire

Stop him!

Stop it! stop it! stop it! no please! no blood!

Stop you fools!

Stripped of armament and loaded with extra fuel these planes maintained connection with the scandinavian countries north africa the united states and especially with england

Suits me will that be all

Sunlight on mars is approximately half as strong as we get it add their clouds and dust it amounts to no more than our twilight

Suppose they are martians professor what would they look like bigger than us smaller

Sure we can sell the tamales and the enchiladas and the hot dogs too

Swing your corner with the left hand round it's once and a half on the merry go round

Sylvia I like that dr forrester he's a good man

Sylvia!

Sylvia! (2)

Take action and report

Take cover along the riverbed!

Take my word for it general this type of defense is useless against that type of power

Target as indicated repeat target as indicated

Ten seconds nine eight seven six five four three two one

Thank you

Thank you (2)

Thank you dr forrester

Thank you dr forrester (2)

Thank you sir

That explains why communication is cut the moment their machines begin moving

That martian blood let them make a quick analysis of it to see what we've got

That probably dropped halfway to pomona

That skeleton beam must be what they used to wipe out the french city

That was marine colonel ralph heffner

That's 12 feet thick easy maybe more

That's d 24 correct

That's funny the phone's not on the same circuit as the lights

That's it over there

That's pretty hot there boy you can feel the heat from here

That's right came down in kind of spurts didn't it

That's their position

That's what knocked the phones out too

That's where they get the power for their rays

The 75s report they've got them under open sights sir

The air force will take care of these babies now

The air will be full of jets in a minute there they are

The area is under control of marines from el toro base and the gully is surrounded

The crisis will come if they move toward the metropolitan area

The district officer phoned us at the lookout up on the summit

The end came swiftly

The flying wing is gonna carry it

The fools! they cut their own throats!

The government of india driven from new delhi met in a railroad coach

The inhabitants of this dying planet looked across space with instruments and intelligences of which we have scarcely dreamed searching for another world to which they could migrate

The martians can conquer the earth in six days the same number of days it took to create it

The martians considered saturn an attractive world with its many moons and beautiful rings of cosmic dust

The martians had calculated their descent upon our earth with amazing perfection and subtlety

The martians had no resistance to the bacteria in our atmosphere to which we have long since become immune

The mob stole all the trucks smashed everything up

The people of britain met the invaders magnificently but it was unavailing

The pilot has just blipped his motor that means he's dropped the flare

The power lines are down that explains why the lights went out

The red cross is standing by

The redoubtable finnish and turkish armies chinese battalions and bolivians worked and fought furiously

The school bus a girl was driving did they get that

The second world war involved every continent on the globe and men turned to science for new devices of warfare which reached an unparalleled peak in their capacity for destruction

The target for the a bomb is this nest of martian machines in the puente hills where more of these meteor cylinders came down early last evening

The troops are certainly moving in here

The way he's hedging maybe the army didn't hold them

The whole world is waiting for this will decide the fate of civilization and all humanity

Their color absorption must be different from ours

Their eyes have three lenses three distinct pupils

Their machines appear as round blobs

Their nearest world was giant jupiter where there are titanic cliffs of lava and ice with hydrogen flaming at the tops where the atmospheric pressure is terrible thousands of pounds to the square inch

Their senses could be quite different from ours

Then air force cameramen will get pictures

Then our first target will be the initial landing place outside los angeles

Then you think they'd be breathing creatures like us

There must be a couple of million people back of us in the shelter of the san gabriel hills waiting

There must have been another cylinder down here they've been through this whole area and cleared everybody out

There was a girl with them if I could find them

There were a lot of pacific tech people with those trucks did you see them

There's a farmhouse out there let's see if we can find something to eat huh

There's a machine standing right alongside of us

There's a square dance at the social hall this evening

There's another machine coming out

There's been a lot of mysterious activity around the machine

There's been fighting on all the streets

There's how the martians see us

There's nobody left around here now!

There's nothing there now

There's one there's the other

There's only one explanation for a thing like this

There's only one thing that'll stop the martians

There's something moving in the gully

There's something moving!

There's supposed to be one down near the gulf of taranto italy

There's the plane right

They are living creatures out there but they're not human

They could be as curious about us as we are about them maybe

They could not go to pluto outermost of all planets and so cold that its atmosphere lies frozen on its surface

They couldn't go there nor could they go to mercury nearest planet to the sun it has no air and the temperature at its equator is that of molten lead

They couldn't go to neptune or uranus twin worlds in eternal night and perpetual cold both surrounded by an unbreathable atmosphere of methane gas and ammonia vapor

They don't do much of anything

They form a crescent they anchor it at one end and sweep on until they've cleared a quadrant then they anchor the opposite end and reverse direction

They found me in a church I was afraid to go in anyplace else

They got the fire road blocked a truck turned over

They had him on the cover of time

They haven't even been touched!

They may be mental giants but by our standards physically they must be very primitive

They may for instance be able to smell colors

They must keep the opposing poles in balance and lift the machine

They probably saw it come down

They slash across country like scythes wiping out everything that's trying to get away from them

They were knocked out of the sky and their bombs did nothing nothing was effective against them

They won't be able to haul this one away to no museum

They'll be moving on los angeles now

They'll probably move at dawn

They'll stamp the city flat

They're after the plane with their ray!

They're in naples

They're just coming down at random

They're outside london

They're probably controlled by jets after they enter our atmosphere and navigated by some form of gyroscopic mechanism

They're right outside several of them came down together

They're the atomic glue holding matter together

They're thieves robbers worse they wouldn't leave with the rest

They've blocked it

They've gotta be stopped! those instruments!

They've located that second meteor

They've pushed earth or something all around outside

They've put out some sort of electromagnetic covering a protective blister

Thirty one east anchored on cairo

Thirty seconds

This is a geiger counter for detecting radioactivity

This is a sonic radar picture taken from extreme altitude

This is amazing

This is an electronic eye the martians modeled it after their own eye they use it the way we use a periscope

This is miss van buren dr gratzman dr pryor james bilderbeck

This is pine summit I got a smoke

Those shells can't get through to them

Thou anointest my head with oil my cup runneth over

Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death I will fear no evil

Three one eight zero

Three quarter round the outside ring

Through that couple and not too far meet in the center with a right hand star

Throw that guy off there! get him out of there!

Time to get started gentlemen

Town of saint julien south of bordeaux wiped out by ray of undetermined nature

Twenty seconds

Uncle! uncle matthew!

Until the time of our nearest approach to the orbit of mars during a pleasant summer season

Urgent major bentley dawson report to general mann

Very well sir

Wait a minute wait a minute bombs don't unscrew

Waiting to find out whether they can go home again

Wake up

Washington is in constant touch with the military of other nations

Washington is on the line sir

Washington issued orders

We better get word to the authorities

We can't stop them the law's no good here now

We could show them we're friendly huh uh walk out there with a white flag

We did a little bit of surveying while we were up in the hills

We gotta make a run for it come on

We had a chance we could've stopped them

We have followed too much the devices and desires of our own hearts

We have left undone those things which we ought to have done

We have offended against thy holy laws

We humbly beseech thy divine guidance o lord

We know now that we can't beat their machines we've got to beat them

We know there are three cylinders to each group and three machines to each cylinder

We may get a lead from that anemic blood

We might as well go home yeah no sense staying out here let's go

We want to be sure to stop them

We were all praying for a miracle

We will sir

We'd be the first to make contact with them see we'd be in all the papers

We'll establish a line and fight them all the way back to the mountains

We'll get out of here safely don't worry

We'll take all our instruments and establish a base laboratory in the rocky mountains

We're doing all right

We're friends! yeah!

We're getting it licked fellas keep at it

We're getting this under control we won't need any more help over

We're going in right afterwards study its effect

We're leaving in half an hour

We're ready lots of people have already moved out

We're right in a nest of them i've got to get a good look at them

We're trying to locate the second meteor that landed in this vicinity just about midnight

We've been assigned as special detail

We've been getting reports of destruction massacre

We've got them between here and fresno outside sacramento two on long island

We've gotta have those instruments they're our only chance!

We've held back because of the danger of radiation to civilians

We've mobilized emergency cars and buses in the yards

We've rigged the epidiascope to reflect whatever the martian lens picks up

We've sighted the plane sir right

We've still time to hit them before dark then we'll blast them all over the world

Weapons truck turned over on the road

Welcome to california

Well as to martians our gravitational pull would weigh them down our heavier air would oppress them

Well do you think they come from mars

Well he's like uh like uh

Well I did a thesis on modern scientists working for my master's degree

Well I do know him slightly

Well I how do you do dr forrester

Well I might've recognized you without the beard and you didn't wear glasses on the time cover

Well if they are martians and if they do have hearts they'd almost certainly beat at a slower rate their veins might be distended

Well let's take another look at it

Well now how can you say that when you don't even know him

Well some of our newest weapons are in here

Well that's a job for the navy

Well the jets went in but not one of them came out

Well there were three of us the others flew back in my plane

Well there's some fellas fishing at pine summit

Well they'll be a lot nearer than us

Well they'll go the minute there's another heat ray

Well they're really for long distance when I want to look at something close I take them off

Well we always play good night ladies at 12 00 anyway it must be nearly that now

Well we ought to get back

Well you fellas will have to figure it out you're scientists

Well you must've caught plenty with all that tackle

Well you've certainly got them surrounded

What about the heart and blood and all that

What are they saying honey something's wrong with my hearing aid

What are we going to say to them

What do people do around here on a saturday

What do you think

What do you think dr forrester

What do you think of this situation

What does he think he's doing

What happened to sylvia we never did see her again

What happens here will be a guide to all other operations

What hey look at the car

What is that gizmo

What was it like

What you got in here fella ticking like a bomb

What's he think about this

What's it look like

What's that fella trying to do dig it out

What's that king size fish eye

What's the idea buck gonna dig for gold

What's the idea of the shovel

What's this I hear about the a bomb

What's your range

When it does burst we shall be the first men on earth to get a real look at these invaders from space

When the last wire photo out of paris reached the french cabinet exiled in strasbourg they hit upon the idea of using super speed jets as couriers

Where are the others

Where are the three men you left out here

Where do you think they come from

Where's the fuse box

Whether we live or die may depend on what happens here

Which means that these tape recordings i'm making are for the sake of future history if any

Which way are you going left

While massive hindu populations streamed for the imagined safety of the faraway himalayas

Who

Who's that

Why sure I got it

Why they've all stopped at the same time

Wish us luck roger

Wonder where it lit miles away i'll bet you

Yeah he isn't that good

Yeah! ice cream cold drinks souvenirs

Yes difficult to account for a reaction like that

Yes report when you're set up

Yes sir

Yes they have some sort of electronic umbrella it's quite impenetrable

Yet across the gulf of space on the planet mars intellects vast and cool and unsympathetic regarded our earth with envious eyes slowly and surely drawing their plans against us

You better get something over there it's started a blaze already

You can't buy a ride for love or money

You get in the school bus sylvia will drive you

You having fun yup

You know I almost forgot when I ate last

You know mostly I get my meals in coffee shops and restaurants

You know that meteor's either very light which is unheard of or else it's hollow somehow

You know you've got to rate to get that

You look kind of lost yourself

You may find at daylight you're too exposed so keep your prime movers ready to pull you out fast

You mean by some biological approach

You never know where you're going to wind up when you go to a square dance do you

You see that my watch is magnetized

You seem to know all about him

You there with the shovel!

You think you're kidding

You'd better let washington know fast!

You'll get further instructions from sixth army command

You'll hit something can't you go higher

You're going to need plenty of reinforcements we'll get them

You're the gentlemen I asked to come here

You're the guys from pacific tech ain't you right

You've deployed your forces well

You've got guns and equipment going out there all night

Your scarf
