NARRATOR: However, as they explore, the Space Monkeys find questions, not answers.
ALPHA: (Stunned) What is it?
GAMMA: (Puzzled) A statue? Perhaps of the creatures that live here?
ALPHA: Whatever it is, we're not alone here.

ALPHA: Maybe. I wish Loran was here.
GAMMA: It sounded like she had found something out.
ALIEN 1: (Sibilant) You! Be silent! Or we hurt!
ALPHA: (Commanding) Where are you taking us?
ALIEN 1: No questions! Move!
FX: Slapping of hands on leather. Walking noises stop.
ALPHA: Get your claws off me, you damn, dirty snake!
ALIEN 1: You challenge me? I take you! Cut you into pieces!
