Graham Hess: People break down into two groups when the experience something lucky. Group number one sees it as more than luck, more than coincidence. They see it as a sign, evidence, that there is someone up there, watching out for them. Group number two sees it as just pure luck. Just a happy turn of chance. I'm sure the people in Group number two are looking at those fourteen lights in a very suspicious way. For them, the situation isn't fifty-fifty. Could be bad, could be good. But deep down, they feel that whatever happens, they're on their own. And that fills them with fear. Yeah, there are those people. But there's a whole lot of people in the Group number one. When they see those fourteen lights, they're looking at a miracle. And deep down, they feel that whatever's going to happen, there will be someone there to help them. And that fills them with hope. See what you have to ask yourself is what kind of person are you? Are you the kind that sees signs, sees miracles? Or do you believe that people just get lucky? Or, look at the question this way: Is it possible that there are no coincidences?

Merrill: Morgan, this crop stuff is just about a bunch of nerds who never had a girlfriend their whole lives. They're like thirty now. They make up secret codes and analyze Greek mythology and make secret societies where other guys who never had girlfriends can join in. They do stupid crap like this to feel special. It's a scam. Nerds were doin' it twenty five years ago and new nerds are doing it again. Graham Hess: Its just static, Morgan. Frequency. [Weird noises come from the baby monitor] Morgan: It's a code. Bo: Why can't they get girlfriends?

[Morgan has an asthma attack] Graham Hess: We don't have his medicine. Don't be afraid, Morgan. We'll slow this down together. Feel my chest. Feel it moving in and out. Breathe like me. Breathe like me. Come on. Bo: I dreamed this. Graham Hess: Stay with me. I know it hurts. Be strong baby. It'll pass. It'll pass. [talking to God] Graham Hess: Don't do this to me again. Not again. I hate you. I hate you! The fear is feeding him. Don't be afraid of what's happening. Believe it's going to pass. Believe it. Just wait. Don't be afraid. The air is coming. Believe. We don't have to be afraid. It's about to pass. Here it comes. Don't be afraid. Here comes the air. Don't be afraid, Morgan. Feel my chest. Breathe with me. Together. The air is going in our lungs. Together. We're the same. We're the same. Merrill: We should save the flashlights.

Morgan: Maybe we should say a prayer. Graham Hess: No. Morgan: Why not? Graham Hess: We're not saying a prayer. Morgan: Bo has a bad feeling. Bo: I had a dream. Graham Hess: We aren't saying a prayer. Eat! Morgan: I hate you. Graham Hess: That's fine. Morgan: You let Mom die. Merrill: Morgan... Graham Hess: I am not wasting one more minute of my life on prayer. Not one more minute. Understood? [Bo starts crying] Graham Hess: Now we are going to enjoy this meal. No one can stop us from enjoying this meal, so enjoy it! Stop crying! Merrill: Graham... Morgan: Don't yell at her! Graham Hess: All right, since you're all not going to eat, I'm going to try some of everything. [He angrily starts piling food on his plate, and tries to eat, then breaks down crying. He pulls Morgan, Bo, and Merrill in, and everyone hugs]

11
Graham Hess: Swing away Merrill. Merrill... swing away.
12
Colleen: Tell Morgan to play games. Graham Hess: I will. Colleen: It's okay to be silly... Tell Bo to listen to her brother. He'll always take care of her. Graham Hess: I will. Colleen: Tell Graham... Graham Hess: I'm here. Colleen: Tell Graham... to see. Tell him to see. And tell Merrill to swing away.

Graham Hess: Lionel Prichard and the Wolfington brothers are back. Merrill: It's time for an ass-whupping. Graham Hess: This is not an intelligent way to approach this. Lee is a friend of mine. This is his son. Merrill: Yeah, we'll be doing Lee a favor. All right, listen, we both go outside, move around the house in opposite directions. We act crazy, insane with anger, make them crap in their pants, force them around till we meet up on the other side. Graham Hess: Explain "act crazy". Merrill: You know, curse and stuff. Graham Hess: You want me to curse? Merrill: You don't mean it. It's just for show. What? Graham Hess: Well, it won't be convincing. It doesn't sound natural when I curse. Merrill: Just make noises, then. Graham Hess: Explain "noises". Merrill: Are you gonna do this or what? Graham Hess: No, I'm not. Merrill: All right, you want them stealing something in the house next time? [outside light comes on] Merrill: On the count of three. One... Graham Hess: All right. Merrill: two... three! Graham Hess: Ahh! I'm insane with anger! Merrill: We're gonna beat your ass bitch! We're gonna tear your head off! Graham Hess: I'm losing my mind! It's time for an ass-whupping! [Merrill and Graham meet each other] Graham Hess: I cursed. Merrill: I heard. [rustling on the roof] Merrill: How did he get... Are you sure this is Lionel Prichard?
14
Graham Hess: It's happening.
15
Merrill: Move, children. Vamanos.
16
[giving the dog a bowl of water] Bo: It tastes funny. [Morgan takes a sip] Morgan: It does not. It's just tap water. Besides, he licks his butt every day, I don't think he'll mind.
17
Graham Hess: Morgan, after you were born, the doctor gave you to your mother. When she first looked at you, you just stared right back. You both just stared at each other for longest time, and you didn't even cry.
18
Merrill: The nerds were right.
19
Morgan: We have to tape this. [he gets a tape, but Bo grabs it and hugs it to her] Bo: My ballet recital! Morgan: Listen, Bo. This is very important. Everything people have written about in science books is going to change. The history of the world's future is on the TV right now. We need to record this so you can show *your* children this tape and say *you* were there. For your children, Bo. Bo: My ballet recital!
20
Morgan: [to Bo] Everything people have written about in science books is going to change... Off-Screen TV Anchor: [about 45 seconds later] Everything they wrote in science books is about to change. Morgan: I told you.
21
Merrill: Hey, you guys okay? Morgan: Some guy had a sign saying it was the end of the world. Merrill: Don't worry. Morgan: You won't let anything happen to us, right? Merrill: No way. Morgan: I wish you were my dad. Merrill: What did you say? Don't you ever say anything like that again. Ever!
22
Merrill: This is exactly what the nerds want...
23
Morgan: I think God did it.
24
Graham Hess: That's why he had asthma. It can't be luck. His lungs were closed. His lungs were closed. No poison got in. No poison got in. His lungs were closed. His lungs were closed. [Merrill checks for a pulse] Graham Hess: Don't touch him. Give him a minute. [Merrill starts crying] Merrill: Graham... Graham Hess: Give him a second. Bo: Daddy... Graham Hess: Don't touch him. Merrill: Graham... Graham Hess: Don't... Don't. Morgan: Dad? What happened? Did someone save me? [Graham starts crying] Graham Hess: Yeah, baby, I think someone did.
25
Graham Hess: Everybody in this family needs to just calm down and eat some fruit or something.

28
Ray Reddy: Don't open my pantry, Father. I found one of them in there and I locked him in.
29
Graham Hess: I can't be sure, but I got the distinct feeling that it wanted to harm me.
30
Tracy Abernathy: I swore 37 times in the last month. I said the 'f-word' a couple of times, but it was mostly 'shit's and 'bastard's. Is 'douche bag' a curse? Graham Hess: I suppose it would depend on the context. Tracy Abernathy: How about "John you're a douche bag for kissing Barbara"? Graham Hess: It's a curse. Tracy Abernathy: Oh, well then it's not 37 times it's 71 times.
31
Graham Hess: I don't want any of you spending time with Tracy Abernathy alone. Understand?
32
[Upon discovering there is no longer a signal on the baby monitor] Merrill: Good enough for me. Graham Hess: Me too.
33
Merrill: I'm a miracle man.
34
Graham Hess: There is no one looking out for us. We are all alone.
35
Graham Hess: Come on, now, you're too old to be doing this. You get a glass of water, and leave it lying around instead of finishing it. Now what's wrong with this one? Bo: It has dust in it. Graham Hess: And this one? Bo: A hair. Graham Hess: And this one? Bo: Morgan took a sip and it's got his amoebas in it.
36
Graham Hess: See this is why we're not watching TV, people become obsessed.
37
Officer Caroline: Merrill... how's work at the gas station? Merrill: Stimulating.
38
Graham Hess: That's ridiculous. How can anyone possibly know that information? What else does it say?
39
Bo: Are you in my dream too?
40
Graham Hess: Caroline. I don't want you calling me 'Father' anymore. Officer Caroline: What's wrong? Graham Hess: I don't hear my children.
41
Merrill: One time, I was at this party... and I was sitting on the couch with Amanda McKinney. She was just sitting there, looking beautiful. So, I lean in to kiss her, and I realize I have gum in my mouth. So, I turn to spit it out and put it in a paper cup. I turn back, and Amanda McKinney throws up all over herself. I knew the moment it happened, it was a miracle. I could have been kissing her when she threw up. It would have scarred me for life. I may never have recovered.
42
Graham Hess: You're wasting your time here. I'm not going to report this or anything you do to my crops to the police or news or anybody. You're not going to get famous.
43
Merrill: There are a lot of things I can take, and some things I can't. But what I can't take is when my older brother, who's everything that I want to be, starts losing faith in things. I saw that look in your eyes last night. I don't ever want to see that look in your eyes again.
44
Graham Hess: What are you thinking about? Bo: Why do you talk to Mom when your by yourself? Graham Hess: Makes me feel better. Bo: Does she ever answer back? Graham Hess: No. Bo: She never answers me either.
45
Graham Hess: We're going to board up every window in this house. Merrill: How do you know boards will do anything? Graham Hess: Because they seem to have trouble with pantry doors.
46
Graham Hess: My vote counts as two. Morgan: That's bullshit. You're cheating. Graham Hess: Morgan, calm down. Morgan: We don't know anything yet...
47
Mr. Nathan: It's a bunch of crock. They're trying to sell sodas. I've been watching all morning, and I've seen 12 soda commercials. 12. Morgan: Do you have any books on extraterrestrials? Mr. Nathan: Don't tell me you believe this horse manure. Mrs. Nathan: As a matter of fact, I think we do...
48
Merrill: Excluding the possibility that a female Scandinavian Olympian was running around outside our house last night, what else might be a possibility? Officer Caroline: I'm not done asking questions. And I don't appreciate sarcasm.
49
Graham Hess: The police are here. I am with them. I am a police officer. I just want to talk with you. We know all about the hoax. We already took some of your friends downtown in a paddy wagon. Just tell us your name and why you did it, and we'll give you the same deal we gave the others. Don't throw your life away, son.
50
Morgan: They said there are one of two outcomes of an invasion. One: they fight, and are defeated, and have to return again with full forces hundreds or even thousands of years later. Graham Hess: What's two? Morgan: They win.
