1 {scene: The Oval Office}
1 Loren: Mr President, we have a situation. Martians are invading Earth.
1 Allosaurus: Raaarrrhh?
2 Loren: They have superior technology and intellects. Humanity doesn't stand a chance, sir.
2 Allosaurus: Raaarrrhh?
3 Loren: They're demanding total dominion over Earth and a tribute of 50 guitars a year.
3 Allosaurus: Raaarrrhh?
4 Loren: My recommendation: Surrender.
4 Allosaurus: RAAARRRHH!!!

Because, after all, Mars Needs Guitars!

I originally wrote that line as: "and a tribute of 50 young virgins a year."

But the phone call from Richard Branson changed my mind.

Presumably it's set up in Dvorak or something.^[1]
