The Magnetic Monster (1953)

Watson Downs: Mayor

Quotes 

• Gen. Behan : The Canadian government operates a top-secret plant in Nova Scotia. They own the most powerful Deltatron in existence. When they realize the common danger, they'll let us use it.

  Mayor : Nova Scotia is 4000 miles away. The period between cycles is 11 hours. How are we gonna transport it there in that time?

  Gen. Behan : Our jets travel at 600 miles an hour. And what's more, the new alloys used in our jets are non-magnetic. They will not be affected by the cargo. You, Dr. Stewart, and Forbes can follow in another plane, just in case.

  Gen. Behan : Operator, this is General Behan. Give me Washington. Connect me with the Secretary of Defense.

  [to Dr. Stewart and Mayor] 

  Gen. Behan : I like this world. Let's keep it in one piece. Or at least, let's try.
