ED1: “_I’m_ the original!”

ED2: “This record comes equipped with Big Jim Slade.”

ED3: “You will not be saved by the God Plutonium.”

ED4: “Do you take me for a fool? Do you think I don’t know you’ve come here to steal the plans to my new interstellar hydro-combustion miracle-patented micro-teflon nuclear gamma strato rocketship-grade missile, which was twenty years in the making and employs a new updraft design which lifts the ship on small spirals of synthetic strontium pellets? Do you think I don’t know that? Well, I’ve never even heard of it. So you’re barking up the wrong tree.”
