[On the SOL, the Bots are playing Civil Defense Quiz Bowl. Joel hosts.]
All right, let's get things started with a toss-up question. What three word slogan was coined during the Cold War as a schoolchild's best defense against an A-bomb attack? [Servo buzzes in] Tom Servo of Oak Ridge!
Uh, uh, uh, duck and cover?
Could you state in the form of a desperate cry to God to save you from an unholy death, please?
[screaming] DUCK AND COVER!
Is right for five points.
[U.S. spy John Manston debriefs his lovely Soviet contact, Tanya.]
Hard to believe that a group of civilized men could sit around and calmly discuss how to murder five or six million others.
That's why we've got to crush them!
[Back in the U.S., a general tries to get a scientist to assure success on an American missile program.]
If we can't come up with something better within a reasonable time, this country is going to witness the most frightful disaster it has ever seen.

[General Watkins answers his phone.]

[After a car has taken an abnormally long time to park] Nobody will be admitted during the breathtaking car-parking sequence!
[Tanya meets Manston in some ruins near the Soviet missile base.]
Did Lars give you the TNT?

[New York has just been nuked.]
It turned the Big Apple into apple sauce.
[The very first MST3K "stinger"]
Help me.
