ALF, Season 2

Lynn:
[walks outside with a banana bread and finds ALF hiding inside a box] ALF? ALF, are you in there?

ALF:
[inside the box] Go away.

Lynn:
I brought you some banana bread. ALF, please come out of there.

ALF:
No! If you see me, you'll die.

Lynn:
I've already seen you. I know what you look like. ALF.

ALF:
I'm double-bagged for your protection.

Lynn:
Come on. Eat some banana bread.

ALF:
I'm not hungry.

Lynn:
You really are upset. What was death like on Melmac?

ALF:
Predictable. Everyone died at the same age. 650. There were no surprises. And you could plan.

Lynn:
You could stock upon fruit and things?

ALF:
Exactly. And the week before you go you give away your personal belongings. The year before you go, your credit cards are canceled.

Lynn:
I'd be afraid to know exactly when I was gonna die.

ALF:
Hey, I'd be afraid not to know. That's why I feel so bad about Uncle Albert. I took him before his time. Thanks to me, he didn't have a chance to wrap things up.

Lynn:
Yes, he did.

ALF:
What are you talkin' about?

Lynn:
See, Uncle Albert came here to make amends to show us that he really could be a nice guy. A lot of people don't get a chance to do that. But he did.

ALF:
Really?

Lynn:
Really.

ALF:
Well, if that's true then I'll get over this eventually. But I'd still like to stay in this box awhile.

Lynn:
I understand. You need some time to think.

ALF:
Yeah. [pause] Oh, hey, Lynn? You could leave that banana bread.
