Explorer from Another World (2024)

[bunniefuu]

Black, a perfect black.

For eons, there was a silence.

..

Such silence was

impenetrable and universal,

all consuming and

unchallenged in its authority.

Nothing stirred, and nothing would.

It had been so that

all was perfect and still

since the start of creation itself.

And yet, it was simply in a

blinding, instantaneous flash

that the silence was broken.

The universe was born, and

there would never be a moment

of total silence ever again.

And it was only with the passage of time

that the first planets began to form.

It was on one such planet

that life too eventually

formed, planet Earth.

With great canyons and

valleys for creatures to inhabit,

the world began transforming

in unprecedented ways,

until eventually, man was born.

By the 20th century, man had

long oversaw his own progress.

Electricity, the automobile,

the telephone,

atomic bombs, then, a man in outer space.

Evolution was ours.

By the 20th century, we had determined

that no other planet in our

solar system was fit for life.

However, this determination

does not exclude other planets,

the many, many planets

buried in the furthest recesses

of outer space, places

free from human awareness.

Could there be life out there?

Could there be life

beyond our solar system?

And if so, could they pose a threat to us?

The neon lights are calling

The city, she's alive

I'm feeling good, let's stomp some wood

Let's boogie and let's jive

The band sure is a playing fast

And the beer is oh so cold

What's your

favorite monster, Eddie?

Um, say Frankenstein.

What about you?

Wolfman.

He's cool.

I like him.

Wanna put that right there?

And, finished!

Looks nice.

Can we do another one?

You sure?

It's kinda late, isn't it?

Yeah.

Okay.

Sorry to break up the party,

but it's time for bed, Cindy.

Aw!

It's okay, we can do

another one tomorrow night,

all right?

It's Friday night and you're

putting puzzles together

with your sister?

Nothing to do, I guess.

You could always come

watch "Rawhide" on the television

with your father and I.

It's about to start, Helen!

Okay, dear!

Think I'll just stay here

and read some comics.

Well, the offer still stands

if you change your mind.

Night, Mom.

In this dance hall

where dreams take flight

You're the star of my Saturday night

Underneath that old moon filled night

And that was Big Todd McGee

with, "Going out Tonight."

And what y'all doing out

tonight, Beutter County?

Wait, Frank just handed me some adverts.

Now, for a special announcement,

folks, may I have the pleasure of unveiling

to all of you,

the grand opening of Dario's Pizza.

That's right, traditional,

genuine, Italian pizza

just down...

Jesus, Cullpepper!

Sorry.

Well, are you ready?

Ready for what?

It's Friday night!

Did you forget already? - Forget what?

"The Atomic Creature"

playing at The Exeter tonight.

Remember?

I just feel like staying in the night.

Well, what do you

want me to tell Mary Beth?

You know Mary Beth would

never go see a picture like that.

Eddie Joseph Makielski!

How do you know which

kind of picture I wanna go see?

The moon is so bright

Are you going to the Out of

the World Dance next Friday?

Well, Donald Gleason asked me to go.

Oh.

But I haven't said yes yet.

Oh, why is that?

Well, he's not the one I want to go with.

Hmm. - What about you?

If you're interested, I mean, I'm going.

I don't wanna be a burden or anything.

I mean, I like... - Mm.

Like, I mean, I don't

want to be like a problem,

but would you ever-

Who cares about some crummy dance?

We're gonna be late and get

stuck with some lousy seats.

Fine, we'll take the shortcut

through Farmer Gibbon's place,

save us some time.

Fine.

Evening, Professor.

Evening, Mary Beth, boys.

Oh, oh, darling

Soft, gentle breeze Curious.

Professor Farnsworth speaking.

I hope I'm not interrupting your evening,

Professor Farnsworth.

Oh, that's quite all right, Jean.

Mark Taylor just phoned

me from the observatory,

and he said that he saw

a peculiar incoming object

through the telescope.

And I thought you ought to know.

I saw it as well.

Probably just a meteoroid.

Possibly.

But he insisted its movements

were entirely erratic.

See if you can track it.

Maybe we can get a group together Monday

and search for any remnants.

Sure thing, Professor. - All right, then.

See you Monday.

So what did the Mrs. have to say?

I've been married to that

woman for over 20 years.

She makes the same damn

meal every Friday night,

Chipped beef on toast and stuffed celery.

Sounds like she needs some new recipes.

You wanna know what

she's making for dessert?

Frosted ham ribbon loaf.

You wanna stop by my

place tonight, Sheriff, for dinner?

Why?

What's Maybelle making?

I bet it's something good.

Her slow cooked pot roast with carrots

and potatoes garnish.

Fill you up like a tick.

Well, I'd love to Tommy,

but if the Mrs. found out

I have supper with y'all,

I'd be sleeping on the

Chesterfield for a week.

Just so you know, Sheriff,

the offer stands anytime.

That's awful kind of you, Tommy.

Sheriff's Office.

Yes, sir.

Yes, sir.

A glow?

In the woods,

south of Lakewood College.

I'd be happy all my life

With that aggravating

beauty, Lulu Walls

Sweet Jesus!

The commies have finally done it!

It's a God damn invasion!

Not today, Nikita Khrushchev!

Who's out there?

What was that?

Was that Gibbons?

Probably just an owl

No, I think I heard it too.

You know that drunk has a shotgun, right?

Yeah, I'm aware.

What the sh*t is this?

Ah, sh*t, he spotted us.

God damn commies are invading!

You got five seconds to get off my land

and 10 seconds to get out of my country

before I shove two barrels

of American freedom up your head!

Can you see him? - Yeah, I can see him.

He's screaming, but not at us.

Well, who's he screaming at then?

I don't know.

He seems pretty worked up about it.

What the sh*t Jesus?

Who's out there?

The hell kind of mutant cosmonaut are you?

Oh, sh*t.

All right.

And Loraine

is wrapping her around-

There we go. - the ropes,

and she's really giving her the works.

Come on, now!

Socked

between the shoulder blades-

Rip her top off!

Rip her top off!

on those

ropes and.

The referee is stopping the match!

Disqualifying the... Aw, hell!

The

referee has disqualified

Lorraine Johnson, and

we'll be right back, folks.

Breweries is the beer

with the one big difference.

It's Drewrys for you

It's Drewrys for me

I'd sure like to wrestle her.

That's a big difference

in beer is Big D

So much more flavor

And less filling too

Professor Farnsworth,

there was a man, and then, he had a pack.

And he was near Gibbons

on a farm and it was night.

Okay, calm down!

Now, what's all this excitement about?

Farmer Gibbons is dead.

You gotta call Sheriff Wilcox now!

Dead?

Well, what happened to him?

His head is just blown clean off!

By a creature from another world.

Look, we don't know what we saw,

but someone or something just shot him.

Now, this wouldn't be some sort of prank,

Mary Beth? - No, honest!

Just-

You wouldn't want me calling your folks.

Call Sheriff Wilcox, please!

There's something strange going on here!

What are you waiting for?

Clarence Gibbons is dead!

Well, I'm sitting on the porch

with my heart in my hand

Watching the sunset

over this lonely land

I've been a drifting and a rambling

Through dust and through rain

But I can't seem

To shake off this heartache and pain

Why did you lead me in

I've searching for solice

Sheriff's Office.

Hold on, Professor.

Okay, they saw what now?

Clarence Gibbon?

Well, I admit, that damn

drunk's as crazy as a dog

in a hubcap factory.

But I reckon he was just

taking pot-shots at c*ons again.

I think you have some excited

kids with wild imaginations.

Look, I got Tommy out

on another call right now,

but if it makes you feel better,

I'll have him swing by

and take a look when he's

done with that en, all right?

Go on and send them kids home.

And I've left you to roam

In this lonesome old world without

Tommy, come in.

Yeah, Rossy here, come back.

Listen, I need you to

swing by the Gibbon's place

and check on that old fool.

He's sh**ting that damn shotgun again.

Roger that, Sheriff.

I just pulled into the

Marko place out here.

I'll get on that as soon as I get done

with barnyard mystery.

Standing by.

I ain't never gonna get

home for dinner tonight.

Lord above.

Why?

And my chickens!

What's this European

Clydehopper up to now?

Mr. Marko?

Mr. Marko?

Hey, Sheriff!

It's Deputy, thank you.

You made a call on the Sheriff's Office?

No, sheriff, I didn't call, no.

My wife, she called.

Okay, and what is this pertaining to?

This guy, guy is k*lling my chickens.

He's ripping the head off.

Your chicken.

Who did this?

This guy.

He look like a underwater Olympic gymnast.

And he did what now?

k*lling my chicken with like instrument.

An instrument?

Yeah, it's not like tuba, Sheriff.

It's more like bicycle pump, okay?

It look like a, it's got a

pointy thing on the end.

It sh**t like red light, maybe blue light.

No, Sheriff, it's red light.

I don't think the color matters, sir.

No problem, okay?

I'll take care of it, eh? - No, no, no.

Wait, sir, please!

I will investigate the

situation on your property.

Please, you can rest here.

I will get back to you as soon as possible.

Are you sure?

Yes, sir.

Okay, well, hold on, Sheriff.

Hold on!

Let me put the g*n away.

I'm gonna go with you, okay?

I have Fox Deluxe, eh?

No, I cannot partake

while I'm on duty, sir.

I appreciate the offer.

Oh, okay, if you're sure.

I wait here.

I drink.

When you come back, we drink together, huh?

Thank you, Mr. Marko.

I will get right back to you.

Okay, Sheriff.

Good luck, eh?

All right, thank you.

And it's Deputy, thank you.

What?

Good luck, Sheriff!

There's nothing we can do, Eddie.

Yeah, we'll just let the

grownups handle this one.

Besides, do you wanna

get vaporized or something?

I don't want anyone

to get vaporized, Chuck!

Who knows who could be next?

It could be us, friends, family.

You saw what happened to

Gibbons, and he had a shotgun!

I wouldn't mind if he

vaporized my step daddy.

Chuck, you need to take

this a little more seriously.

Well, what are we

supposed to do then, huh?

Kindly ask them to not

decapitate the good people

of Beutter County?

That's enough, Chuck!

He's right though, Eddie.

What can we do?

I don't know.

We don't do something now,

there won't be nobody

left to do something later.

Excuse me, sir?

Can you stand up, please?

Sir, I'm gonna have to ask

you to turn around, please.

We're gonna have a little talk here.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

I need you to put that away.

I need you to put that away now,

so we can have a discussion,

like two normal gentlemen.

Thank you, sir.

I appreciate that.

Now, is that a dead chicken you have there?

What is going on here?

Do you understand me now?

What are you wearing on your head?

Boy, are you some sort

of pilot or something?

Did you have a crash? whoa!

My bowling hand!

Why'd you have to do that, mister?

Gibbon!

Is that you?

Poor b*stard.

Drunken hillbillies

and shotguns are not a good combination.

Even a hillbilly like you

couldn't be that drunk.

Curious.

Jesus, Mary, and-

Joseph?

You're fourth in line right now.

I've been getting whack a

doodle calls all damn night!

Now, you sit tight.

I'll send Rossy by just as soon as I can.

Okay.

All right.

Okay.

You tell Erdle May I said bye to you.

Rossy, come back now.

Rossy, you out there?

Tommy, pick up the damn radio!

Going after him, aren't you, Sheriff?

Going after who, Hank?

The God damn spaceman!

It's like I told Tommy

earlier, I saw a green man

with a fish bowl on his head,

digging the hole off the back

of Montgomery Lawson's place.

Then, he jumped into some sort

of flying space capsule and flew off!

Hank, I believe the only

thing you've seen tonight is

the bottom of a whiskey bottle.

Well, I do like to

drink a little, Sheriff.

Okay, a lot.

But I know what I saw!

Well, what you say is

true, make room in there.

I always get my man.

Ain't no man, Sheriff!

Well, hot dog.

Ruby Jean?

What a God damn waste.

Did you do this to Ruby Jean?

You b*stard!

Curious.

Remarkable!

They travel the universe

seeking new life forms!

They're explorers!

Jean?

Jean!

Jean!

Jean!

Jean!

I'll get you out, Jean.

Hold on tight, Jean!

Jean!

Rossy, come in.

Tommy, come in.

Jean!

They're not explorers.

They're conquerors!

Wait one moment, Jean!

I'll get you out of there.

Hold tight, Jean.

I will return.

I'm going.

I'm going with you.

You're outta your minds.

Then stay.

Well, I'm obviously going with you.

Professor?

What are you doing out here?

And what was that bright light I saw?

There's no time to explain.

There's a spaceship from

another world in that clearing,

and if I'm correct,

they intend to take over the Earth!

Spaceship?

You're starting to sound like Gibbons.

You've been sampling his corn liquor?

This is no time for jokes.

We need to act fast!

What on earth?

I can assure you, Sheriff,

that sound you're

hearing is not of this earth.

Now, we must move quickly!

Well, lead the way.

Is that Gibbons?

What's left of him.

Where in the hell's his head?

You haven't been listening. Sheriff.

Under no circumstances

must we allow that ship

to leave this planet.

And if I'm correct,

they won't be able to.

Well, what's that supposed to be?

I think it's some sort of fuel cell.

I'm not gonna wait and find out.

No, no, it's too risky!

From what you've told me,

that ship is nothing but

bad news in every direction.

My assistant, Jean

Lockyear, is on that craft.

Okay, Wernher von Braun,

what are we gonna do

about it?

We need to come up with a plan

to get that alien off that

ship.

Quick, Sheriff, take your shot!

We may not get another chance!

Only need one shot, Professor.

Sheriff!

Professor!

You must get that fuel cell!

Get that fuel cell!

Go for it, Eddie!

I've got you covered.

- Why do I gotta go?

- You're faster than me.

And besides, I got a supinated gait.

What does your front

gate gotta do with anything?

What? - What?

You said front gate? - I'll do it.

What? - No, I'll do it.

I got it, okay?

I got it.

I'll distract him.

On three.

One,

two,

three!

Oh, sh-

Chuck!

No!

Eddie!

What are we gonna do, Eddie?

Where's it at?

Where's my slingshot?

Where's it at?

Okay, okay, okay.

We got one shot, okay.

Okay, I need another rock or something.

Hurry!

Here!

Take this.

Eddie, hurry!

You must act now.

Steady.

Come on.

Steady.

I hope you enjoyed your

time here in Beutter County,

but now, it's time for you to go.

Bingo.

Nice shot, Sheriff.

Couldn't have done it

without the help of these kids.

Where do you think

he came from, Professor?

He came from another world, Eddie.

But he underestimated

our ability to fight back.

Come, Sheriff,

let's get Jean off that ship.

Poor Chuck.

I'm sorry for your loss, Eddie.

Uh-huh.

I saw you shining in the night

A silver hue

Bright like a dream

Oh, how you gleam

What makes me gaze

You wanna go to the dance?

The way that I do

It took you long enough to ask.

Oh, I'm so in love with you

With every twinkle

My heart sighs

In your glow, the world feels new

So close, yet far

My evening star

Holding me tight the way lovers do

Old fool, my heart belongs to you

So let's run, run around all night long

Hit the town

What on earth could go wrong

Run around

Hope I'm not coming off strong

Feel the sound, boogie down

Dance to the very last song

So let's run, run all night long

Run around all night long

Well, we'll hop in my car

It's a shiny new thing

We'll cruise on down the avenue

Just you and me

While the neon signs flicker

Do like this all night

I'll pull you close

Yeah, you feel so right

So let's run, run around all night long

Hit the town, fool around

What on earth could go wrong

Run around, hope I'm

not coming off strong

Feel the sound, boogie down

Dance to the very last song

So let's run around all

night, run around all night long

You can give me the shakes

Oh, yes, kissin' at the drive in

We'll be out past midnight

Oh, a tank full of gas

Ooh, yeah, let's go everywhere

We got no where to be

So let's run, run around all night long

So let's run, run around all night long

Hit the town, fool around

What on earth could go wrong

Run around, hope I'm

not coming off strong

Feel the sound

One, two, three!

Run around all night long

Go!

Get back, Dan. - f*ck!

Holy sh*t!

The neon lights are calling

The city, she's alive

I'm feeling good, let's stomp some wood

Let's boogie and let's jive

The band sure is a playing fast

And the beer is oh so cold

I'm feeling tight, we're

going to swing all night

Get hotter than that

stove

We're going out tonight,

'til the morning light

Gonna paint this town red

We're going to have a ball

Stomp the wall, get

liquored and get fed
