Sample dialogue
We could work together. Why be enemies? Just because we're different? Is that why? We could work together! Think how much we could do! Think how strong we would be! Earth and Mars together! There's nothing we couldn't accomplish! Think about it! Why destroy when you can create? We can have it all -- or we can smash it all -- which is better? Which is better? Why can't we settle our differences? Why can't we work things out? Why can't we just get along?
scene 222 — INT. WAR ROOM - NIGHTWell, not anymore!
scene 129 — INT. WHITE HOUSE -WAR ROOM - DAYI feel this is the perfect summation to the Twentieth Century ... a time that has seen the dropping of borders and the extending of friendship in all directions.
scene 28 — INT. ART LAND'S VEGAS OFFICE - DAYThis is great! Didn't I tell you this would happen?
scene 112 — INT. OVAL OFFICE - LATE NIGHTWe opened our hearts and minds to our Martian neighbors and this is how they have repaid us. Clearly, they have no love for humanity. So, the time for dialog is over. and I have decided to take the grave step of suspending diplomatic relations.
scene 132 — INT. WASHINGTON CLASSROOM -DAY
