Deputy: Are we under attack? Johnston: Son, I don't want to hear that word again. Now look, this could have been a test. It could have been an accident. There's, uh, military bases near Denver. One explosion does not make an attack. If we stay calm, the town stays calm, okay.

Hey, Shep? You said earlier that you had heard that speech before. Ever ask yourself why I say it? ‘Cause I happen to trust you people. ‘Cause I love my town. Now, something happened in Denver, in Atlanta, and it could be that we wake up and find out that’s where it stopped. But, until we know, are we going to use our imaginations to solve problems or to cause them? Now, we can get the power back on. We can find out how big this thing is. If we have to we can fight. We can fight anybody, we can fight all enemies. The only way that’s going to happen is if we work together. Now, go on home. We’ll meet tomorrow at the town hall. And folks, don’t you break my heart again.

[Points at the word "Jericho" on the police car] Look, I know that you're telling people that is was an accident, and I hope it was, but if it was an attack, Sheriff and there's chaos out there, you might not want the wrong people to know that Jericho is still here.

Deputy: We have our frequencies, sir, but outside, it's like there's no one there. Johnston: All right, um... what about analog? We could contact the governor with a Ham radio, couldn't we? Deputy: That could work, but there's only one in town that I know of. Johnston: I was afraid you were going to say that.

Johnston: Oh, Oliver, would you stop that. Old Man Oliver: Sorry, Johnston. Thought you were Aliens. Well, we're under attack, by Aliens. Don't you know that? Johnston: Yes, we do. That's why we're here. Do you have your Ham radio? Old Man Oliver: Yeah, for you....50 cents.

Johnston: If you convince me that you are living a more productive life, then.. Eric: That's right Jake. Jake: We were both born on third base, stop pretending you hit a triple. When are you going to realize I am 32 years old? Johnston: When you do.
