[An alien spaceship appears over the Lighthouse.]
Please go to the main computer terminal and choose from the following options. If the Lighthouse is experiencing an extreme-weather event, press 1.
Agent Coulson, I can't silence the alarms.
If you're experiencing a nuclear attack, press 2.
Screw it. [Presses 2]
For an alien invasion, press 3. You have selected nuclear attack. For your own health, safety, and radiation protection, all outer doors will remain sealed for 15 years.
Did he just say 15 years?
How was I supposed to know there would be an "alien invasion" option?
You always listen to the whole menu. Always!
[Over the intercom] You may be noticing that the Lighthouse is going into lockdown mode. This is not a drill. The Lighthouse is keeping us safe. All exits, including the hangar, have been sealed to protect us from any outside intrusion. Which is good, 'cause there is currently a sizeable alien spaceship overhead. Oh, and due to a technical malfunction, the Lighthouse thinks we're under nuclear attack, so we may be trapped inside for 15 years... ish.
