29	->''The aliens came\
30	from a far distant world\
31	In a large yellow ship\
32	that blinked as it twirled.\
33	It rounded the moon,\
34	and entered our sky.\
35	We knew they had come\
36	but we didn't know why.\
37	Bright the next morning,\
38	with noisy commotion,\
39	The ship slowly moved\
40	out over the ocean.\

42	and drained the whole sea\
43	For transport back home\

56	that you will soon be dead,\
57	But though you may find\
58	this slightly macabre,\
59	We prefer your extinction\
60	to the loss of our job."''

67	"Any race with the technology to cross interstellar distances [[WeWillUseManualLaborInTheFuture would hardly need crude manual labor]]," said [=TuMok=].\
68	"Then they are hostages! The women will be held for ransom until we accede to the alien demands. That's it -- they've come to [[MarsNeedsWater steal our water]]!"\

Ash covered the land where the orchards had been, and even the air was choked with an oily rain. I grabbed a passing indigent, picking through the filth like a stray dog.\
88	'What in Hells' name happened here?' I asked, aghast.\
89	'The queen came to take what was owed her,' said the man, looking dazed. His flesh was spare and cracked, like leather. I was suddenly aware of the bones poking up under his skin.\

91	'No,' gaped the man, 'That's what she came for.'\
92	'What?' I said, with sudden realization.\
93	'Everything,' said the man. I released him and he stumbled back to picking through the dirt. I covered my face with my scarf. The black rain fell. I didn’t stay long."''

[[PhlebotinumKilledtheDinosaurs It was the dinosaurs]], but the atmosphere wasn't conducive, right? So they waited it out, and they waited it out. And now, you know, with the ozone, the pollution, the carbon monoxide, polluted waters... [[GlobalWarming well, we practically terraformed it for them]]. 'Cause now they're coming back, and it's perfect. See, the first wave [of {{Kaiju}}], that was just the hounds, categories I through IV, it was nothing! Their sole purpose was to aim for the populated areas and take out the vermin, [[HumansAreInsects us]]! The second wave, that is the exterminators, [[KillAllHumans and they will finish the job]]! And then, [[AlienInvasion the new tenants will take possession]]."''

[[GaiasLament Our planet has become so polluted]], [[OverpopulationCrisis overpopulated]], and [[DeathWorld poisonous]], that we are no longer able to dwell here, but I, Chairman Drek, have a solution. [[GenesisEffect We are constructing a pristine new world using the choices of planetary components available]]. So, what does this mean to you, you might ask?

[[FauxAffablyEvil Thank you for your cooperation]]."''
