"i decided to make myself a little snack... the rest is a blur." "how can one alien be so irresponsible?" "i wasn't irresponsible, i was hungry!" "did you eat everything in the house?" "no, i don't think so." "wait a minute, here's something." "who wants a cookie?" "i do!" "i'll split it with you." "go feed lucky." "i hope there's food left."

"what were you doing?" "i was chasing him with a fork!" "ha ha." "just kidding." "the last time i saw lucky, you were teaching him to tell time." "what are you getting at?" "yeah, what does tell time mean?" "it means hypnotizing the cat into thinking he's a bagel." "you think alf might have... eaten... alf, you didn't!" "hey, hey, hey." "we're treading on serious ground, here." "these unjust accusations have litigation written on them." "i know my rights." "i watch people's court." "alf, did you eat lucky or not?" "willie, i know the rules." "we don't eat members of our family." "we don't eat members of any family." "well, which is it?" "i can't find lucky, anywhere." "maybe he got sucked into a parallel dimension." "i've seen that happen before." "i don't think so." "so i guess there's only one other explanation." "the alien must have eaten him." "well, i didn't!" "smell my breath." "there's no lucky on it!" "that's the only thing that's not on it." "alf wouldn't eat lucky." "would you?" "i'm not saying anything until i talk to my attorney."

"i want you to look at something." "what?" "i've analyzed the fur ball, and compared it to alf's hair, that i found in the ice cream." "the composition of the fur ball, is the same as the hair in the ice cream." "do you know what that means?" "it means breakfast is over." "no, it means alf is innocent." "we accused him unjustly?" "we should have believed him." "where's alf?" "i don't know, but i found this note." "what does it say?" "ah, mmm... skip the part about david janssen... it says he didn't eat lucky." "poor alf." "it says he's gone to find lucky to prove his innocence." "...and his manhood." "this letter even has tear drops." "grape colored tear drops." "he must feel so betrayed." "i'm going to find him."
