Brian, Willie and others in “Shake, Rattle and Roll”

ALF, are you ok?

Lynn

He doesn't look good.

It looks like he's in shock. ALF, say something! Anything!

Armageddon! Annihilation! White hot tentacles of doom spit fire! Venom! Screeching! Help me! Help me! Help me! Help me! Ruination ALF! Apocalypsenow! Now-- [Willie slaps him] Thanks, Willie. Now I'm blind.

Your eyes are closed.

Oh.

Here, let me help you.

Oh, this may stagger your imagination a whit, but I had nothing to do with this mess.

We know, ALF. We know.

You do?

Lynn

We had an earthquake.

I see.

Brian

And it was a good one.

What was good about it? Why do we have it? What was it?

Well, let me see if I can explain it, ALF. You see, the crust of our planet is made of plates of layered rock that are in continual movement. Now, when the pressure beneath becomes too great, it's released through--

Thank you, Mr. Wizard. Kate, the short strokes, please.

You remember when Godzilla destroyed Tokyo?

Well, that's a rather extreme example, Kate.

Look, we just had an earthquake, and we are all fine. We just have to remember to be prepared and follow some basic safety rules.
