Say you're looking for a planet like you and I looking for a new place to live. A new house. So here's Earth. Only it's like this big old house. And, it's kind of polluted, dirty, and smoky. Grease on the walls, soot in the chimney. So, they send in their interstellar housecleaners. Send in their broom. Sweep us all up. That's what this it is, it's a broom. Using our own machines to sweep us right off.

Helen Robinson: Bill, get your own funeral. Timmy and I are going zombie.

Mr. Bottoms: Yeah, we've had a lot of trouble with old people.

Helen Robinson: I'm pregnant.

Bill Robinson: Oh, I'm sure it's nothing. You're just gaining a little weight.
