Quotes 

• Dr. Perry : [about the monster babies]  More alert everyday. They communicate, they're very much aware of each other, they've been quite calm and I think they trust me. My tests indicate they have the mental capacity of a human infant at 21 months.

  Eugene Scott : I'd like to see them.

  Dr. Perry : Are you sure?

  Eugene Scott : Yeah, I saw mine. I'm not afraid to look anymore.

  Dr. Perry : One thing I think you will find, they bear a striking resemblance to each other, almost like brother and sister.

  Eugene Scott : Oh is... is one of them a female?

• Dr. Perry : When they grow in five to six years, they should be capable of sexual activity. I pride myself in thinking that these two might be the first to reproduce on this planet.

  Eugene Scott : Which one is mine?

  Dr. Perry : Oh, he's in the laboratory upstairs. He'll be brought down here eventually, where it's warm. Also being with each other seems to calm them. I've named them; first necessity of a child I suppose. Might be in bad taste or even blasphemous to have named them Adam and Eve. What the Hell, it seemed like a good joke at the time.

  Dr. Forest : [to Eugene]  They know you're afraid of them.

  Eugene Scott : No kidding. They're not the only ones who know it, or do I know?

  Dr. Perry : Your fear seems to have threatened them.

  [to the monster babies] 

  Dr. Perry : He's the father of one just like you. You're going to have a little baby brother. He's here and he's safe and this is his father. See, neither of them have ever met their parents; probably want to focus on you as a father figure.

  Eugene Scott : [sarcastically]  Ah, thanks Doc, I'd hate to rob you of that honor.

  Dr. Perry : Stop that. Everybody knows that you can make noises if only it makes people nervous and fearful of you. You behave yourself or I won't let you out.

  Eugene Scott : [shocked]  You let them out?

  Dr. Perry : Just Adam, and I'm always well armed. I've never seen them this agitated before. You can see them again tomorrow if you want.

  Eugene Scott : Yeah, thanks Doc, that'd be great.

  Dr. Perry : [to the monster babies]  Stop that. Behave yourselves.
