Phil Blumburtt:

Beverly Switzer:
Phil, you've got to help us. Seriously, what are we gonna do here?

Phil:
Nice Ducky. [squawking like Donald Duck] Me, Phil. You, Howard. We can be friends. Klaatu Barada Nikto!

Howard T. Duck:
[annoyed and confused] Undoubtedly one of Earth's greatest minds here.

Beverly:

Howard:

Phil:

Howard:

Phil:

Howard:

Phil:
Next, I want you to look into the future and tell me what you see!

Howard:
I see...Myself, walking out that door! [He departs, with Beverly in tow]
