) - and no children!A repulsive and slightly weird Childless Woman named Ethel (Roseanne Barr) confronted the three teens near an inoperative payphone, ready to adopt them: "Would you like to come and live with us? It""s been so long since we""ve had children in the house." Thade reinterpreted the news: "She had no choice.They threatened her life," and said he would report the kidnapping to Senator Sandar.Thade used the opportunity to manipulate the Senator into loosening restrictions ("Untie my hands") and declaring martial law: "Give meabsolutepower to rid this planet of the humans once and for all.Its screenplay is a witty, sparkling, and bright adaptation of Philip Barry""s Broadway hit play.(The play opened in late March 1939 and ran for a full year with more than 400 performances and a nationwide tour).McClane added that professional killers were dispatched to kill Farrell - "It""s obviously got something to do with whatever is going on here" - and it appeared crucial to discover what Farrell knew about the attacks." Stan looks a little skeptical, worried and doubtful that he can take the pledge, and he considers sitting down.
