Robot Monster
1953
Carla: Is Alice going on a date with Ro-Man?
Johnny: (to Ro-Man) You look like a pooped out pinwheel.
Ro-Man: I cannot - yet I must. How do you calculate that? At what point on the graph do "must" and "cannot" meet? Yet I must - but I cannot!
Great One: Earth Ro-Man, you violate the laws of plans. To think for yourself is to be like the hu-man. Ro-Man: Yes! To be like the hu-man! To laugh! Feel! Want! Why are these things not in the plan? Great One: You are an extension of the Ro-Man, and a Ro-Man you will remain. Now, I set you into motion. One: destroy the girl. Two: destroy the family. Fail, and I will destroy you!
Great One: Have you made the correction? Ro-Man: I need guidance, Great One. For the first time in my life, I am not sure. Great One: You sound like a hu-man, not a Ro-Man. Can you not verify a fact? Ro-Man: I meshed my LIP with the view-screen auditor, and picked up a count of five. Great One: Error! Error! There are eight! Ro-Man: Then the other three still elude me. Is it possible they have a counterpower?
Ro-Man: I am ordered to kill you. I must do it with my hands. Alice: How is it you're so strong, Ro-Man? It seems impossible. Ro-Man: We Ro-Mans obtain our strength from the planet Ro-Man, relayed from individual energizers.
Ro-Man: What are you doing alone, girl-child? Carla: My daddy won't let you hurt me. Ro-Man: We'll see!
Ro-Man: I must, but I can not.
(Roy walks up to the group and collapses) The Professor: He's dead, and there's nothing we can do.
Ro-Man: Great Guidance, I have a favorable report. I have already eliminated one of them. Great One: Good. Ro-Man: Force was necessary. It was a simple matter of strangulation. That leaves four. Great One: (buzzer sounds) Error! Again! Five! Ro-Man: Four - and one more on whom I have made an estimate in relation to our strategic reserve. The plan should include one human being for reference in case of unforeseen contingencies.
The Professor's Assistant: I'm bossy? You're so bossy you oughta be milked before you come home at night.
Ro-Man: (confronts Johnny and explains the Ro-Mens' motive for wiping out Earth's population) Your people were getting too intelligent. We could not wait until you were strong enough to attack us; we had to attack you first.
