- Officer O'Leary: Calling for backup, calling for backup.
- Alien Plant: Calling for backup.
- Officer O'Leary: Are you repeating me?
- Alien Plant: Are you repeating me?
- Officer Minogue: That's just repeating what she's saying, mate. It's not a clever insult at all.
- Alien Plant: It's not a clever insult at all.
- Officer Minogue: ...It's outsmarted me, O'Leary.
- Officer O'Leary: We'd like to make an arrest for tampering with livestock, but it's very unclear what proper procedure is here.
- Officer Minogue: I mean, I don't care if you are from another planet. If you come to New Zealand, you should respect our rules.
- Officer O'Leary: We appear to have come across a large circle within some crops. We're not quite sure what to call it.
- Officer O'Leary: So it would appear that the plants are carnivorous.
- Officer Minogue: Or omnivorous. We haven't actually seen them eat any plant or vegetable matter, but it is possible that their diet isn't strictly carnivorous.
- Officer O'Leary: Are you talking about the existence of aliens?
- Officer Minogue: I think there might be something out there, yeah.
- Officer O'Leary: Yeah, well, *you're* a bit out there.
- Officer Minogue: Yeah. *You're* a bit out there. Got you back with a clever insult there.
- Officer O'Leary: It's not really a clever insult. You just repeated what I said.
- Officer Minogue: Oh, yeah. I thought it sounded familiar.
- Officer Minogue: I haven't liked farm crops ever since I got lost in the Amazing Maze 'n Maize in Marton.
- Officer O'Leary: We came across this, um, this pod. It didn't actually look like that when we found it, did it? I don't think it was moving before. On further investigation. you advised that I give it a bit of a poke...
- Officer Minogue: Yep
- Officer O'Leary: ...To see what it was all about, and at that point, it sort of emanated this sort of powdery substance into my face, at which point, you came on board.
- Officer Minogue: Pretty much blinded O'Leary, so I removed the pod from her hand immediately to try and make her a little bit safer. I commenced my own investigation shortly afterwards, which involved me also sticking my fingers right into the middle of it.
- Officer O'Leary: He did the same thing that I did.
- Officer Minogue: I did the same thing and was shocked when I got exactly the same result.
- Officer O'Leary: [Into walkie] Calling for backup! Can you hear us?
- [Gets no response]
- Officer Minogue: Stand on your tiptoes. It'll get us further.
- Officer O'Leary: No, you do it.
- Officer Minogue: I can't stand on your tiptoes. They're your feet.
- Officer Minogue: So you can see there that the plant's got acid all over my jacket and has completely ruined it, which is a total lack of respect for another person's property. I'm gonna have to turn this jacket into a vest.
- Officer Minogue: I've got a question.
- Sergeant Maaka: Yes?
- Officer Minogue: If we identify a UFO, does that just mean it's an FO?
- Sergeant Maaka: What I have ascertained from this encounter is that these things are a hostile, intelligent extraterrestrial flora. They are extremely dangerous, weed spray is highly ineffective against them, and, uh, they keep copying us.
- Alien Plant: And, uh, they keep copying us.
- Sergeant Maaka: Shut up.
