MAX: Hey, I was sleeping. MICHAEL: Amazing. MAX: What's amazing? MICHAEL: That you can sleep when the key to our entire existence is out there. MICHAEL: That picture Valenti showed Liz means there's someone else out there. Someone who was here in 1959. That means he was here when it crashed. He knows where we come from, he knows who we are, he knows why we're here. Maybe he knows how to get back. MARIA: What do we even know about these people? Nothing. How do we know that they're not three feet tall, green, and slimy? LIZ: I guess we don't. MARIA: How do we know they can't just like wiggle their noses and like poof us into oblivion? MARIA: OK, you're being like so casual about this, I want to choke you! MARIA: The point is that we don't know anything about these Czechoslovakians. Are they good Czechoslovakians? Bad Czechoslovakians? We don't know. ALEX: So, who's Czechoslovakian? MARIA: Hey! LIZ: Hey! ALEX: Hey! So, who's Czechoslovakian? (Simultaneously) LIZ: The new kid at school. MARIA: The guy at the hardware store. LIZ: The new kid at school who works at the hardware store. MARIA: Exactly. ALEX: Oh. What about him? LIZ and MARIA: Nothing ALEX: Fantastic. LIZ: The thing about Czechoslovakians that you have to sorta factor in, is they have these incredibly soulful eyes. LIZ: Um, was that weird? MAX: What? LIZ: That substitute just asked all of those questions about Michael. You know, um... What was that about? MAX: I'm sure she was just taking attendance. SHERIFF: Agent Hart, the FBI has no jurisdiction here. Now I'm going to ask you to please get up and leave. And take your folding chair with you. LIZ: It's impossible, right, that she's not who she says she is? MARIA: Well, no one is who they say they are. But, I mean... What do you mean exactly? MARIA: I'm telling you Liz, she's been sent here. LIZ: Why would she be sent here? MARIA: To find the Czechoslovakians. MARIA: And now we have this Topolsky person poking around. You know, that's what they do. They send in special government task forces. Alien hunters. And suddenly, we're like, accessories to Czechoslovakians. MARIA: Kyle Valenti, headed this way. LIZ: Like, in this general direction, or like, towards me? MARIA: Like, the latter. LIZ: I'm sure now that we're back in school, he's just thinking of me as a summer fling. KYLE: Liz! LIZ: Kyle! KYLE: How's my girl? MARIA: See ya! MICHAEL: You're sure it was my records, it was definitely my records? LIZ: Yeah. ISABEL: Are you insane?!? MICHAEL: I didn't just wander in, all right? I had a cover story. MAX: And what was your cover story? MICHAEL: I was selling candies for charity. Peanut cluster? MICHAEL: Why are you wearing that? ISABEL: Because, Michael, I have a date...with a guy...that I like. In fact, I like my whole life here. In fact, I have a date next Friday that I'm hoping I won't have to miss because I'm running from the law. ISABEL: Max, don't humor him. I can't believe you're even considering this. MAX: I just want to know how feasible the plan is... MAX: You can't just show up at Michael's and get him riled up like that. You don't know him. He's not big into "let's go over our options." LIZ: I am just saying that if there is a spy among us, don't you think it behooves us to do something about it? MAX: So you think Ms. Topolsky is an alien hunter. LIZ: When you say it like that, it sounds ridiculous. MARIA: Liz, do you know what the second floor eraser room means? LIZ: Of course I know what it means... What does it mean? MARIA: We don't know what can happen. I mean, the guy touched you and you saw into his soul. How do we know what happens if he kisses you? How do we know what it is to be kissed by a Czechoslovakian? MARIA: The eraser room does two things: cleans erasers and takes our innocence. Do you know what I mean by "takes our innocence," Liz? AGENT STEVENS: We've wasted enough tax-payer dollars to try to find something that isn't out there. No space ship landed here in 1947. No aliens are currently residing in Roswell, New Mexico. SHERIFF: You found blood on the dress. Why else would you care enough to remove my files. Wouldn't that be a waste of taxpayer dollars? MAX: You were right about Topolsky. She isn't who she appears to be. LIZ: If you crash landed in 1947, are you really 16 or are you like 52 in a 16-year-old's body? Or do you guys just age differently? I mean, is like one alien year equal to three human years? MAX: You've thought about this a lot, haven't you? LIZ: So were you like green? MAX: Green? LIZ: Before you took human form, were you three feet tall and green and slimy? You know, I'm very sorry about asking you that. It's Maria's question. MAX: No, we just always looked like this. LIZ: Sometimes I wish I could just be invisible. MAX: Sometimes I wish I didn't have to be so invisible. MARIA: Ok. So, one trip to the eraser room and you're like above working? Go get your uniform on, Madonna. The masses are demanding alien-themed, greasy food and by God, it is our job to serve it to them. ALEX: First of all, there are rumors going around that last week you were shot here in the cafe. And then at the Crash Festival you (motions to Maria) were seemingly run over by a car, but then you weren't. And everytime I walk up to you two, you go silent or make up some ridiculous story about Czechoslovakia, which is a country that has not existed for ten years. LIZ: Alex, the reason that we keep on changing the subject is... MARIA: Cramps. We have cramps, Alex. LIZ: Yeah. LIZ: And we didn't even want to talk about it in front of you because we thought it would just make you feel really uncomfortable. MARIA: But if you want really want to know, we can tell you. LIZ: In really excruciating detail. ALEX: No! I'm eating. MAX: Maybe when this all blows over, you and I could get lunch or something? LIZ: Lunch? MAX: Yeah. MICHAEL: What did you see? ISABEL: Ricky Martin in the shower. MICHAEL: The fact that my life basically sucks is a good thing. It's easier. We always have to be able to leave, pack a suitcase, go somewhere else. Maybe ten years from now, maybe a week from now, maybe tomorrow. So my advice? Don't get in too deep, Maximillian. It only makes us weaker. LIZ: Since I found out about Max and Michael and Isabel, I've been thinking a lot about secrets. |
