CHRIS: Alright. Do you guys know anything about these robot dudes?
LYLA: What robot dudes?
CHRIS: Okay shut up Lyla you're just the girl version of Kevin.
ERIKA [to CHRIS]: Don't you think you should lighten up on them? I mean you barely even know Lyla and Kevin seems like a nice guy.
CHRIS [to ERIKA]: Babe you don't know what you're talking about.
ERIKA [to CHRIS]: I don't know, we're gonna be spending a lot of time with them, I thin-
CHRIS [to ERIKA]: I know, it sucks, right?
KEVIN: Hey guys, you know we have ears, too.
CHRIS: Who doesn't have ears? God, Kev.
KEVIN: Sorry.
CHRIS: It's fine, Kev, stop apologizing so much. So about these robots. What we know so far is that they have lasers and they can fly. We also know that you can get turned into a robot by listening to (the song).
KEVIN: The (the song)? Our (the song)?
CHRIS: Yeah, Kev. Our (the song). And we need to figure out how to stop it.
KEVIN: Well, do you have any ideas? We're gonna need one hell of an idea for this kind of threat.
CHRIS: I figured I'll just wing it. The best plan, you know, is no plan at all.
KEVIN: Woah. You really are smart, Chris!
CHRIS: I know.
LYLA: Are you guys hearing yourselves? There is a growing population of killer robots out there that are gonna exterminate the human race if we aren't careful. So either you get a plan together within the next five minutes or I'm calling a cab to take me home where I can spend the last day of my life watching The Bachelor with my cats. If you guys really think you can save the world then be my guest but I don't wanna be stuck in the middle of some middle-aged men bumbling around while everything's at stake.
CHRIS: yada yada blah, blah blah yada yada. Shut up girl Kevin.
KEVIN: Just let the men talk, sweetie. You'll get your turn.
LYLA: Forget this.
LYLA opens the door, and jumps out of the moving car. Everyone in the car screams: "aah."
KEVIN: Damnit, we have to go get her. She can't be out there alone.
CHRIS: Are you kidding me , Kev? We can't go back for her. You have some pretty bad ideas but I think this one's your worst.
KEVIN: I'm serious, Chris. If we don't go back for her now she's gonna die out there.
CHRIS: Does it look like I care?
KEVIN: Chris.
CHRIS: Alrighty fighty man we'll go back.
KEVIN: Thanks, Chris.
CHRIS makes a u-turn in the middle of the street, with lots of tire screeches, of course. He goes down the street very fastly.
CHRIS: Does anyone see her? Where did she go?
KEVIN: Shoot, where could she be?
They look for a while and begin to lose hope.
ERIKA: Look! There she is!
They see LYLA running down the street, with a robot chasing her down.
CHRIS: Dang it! It's too late! I'm sorry Kev.
