- Dr. Cyrus Layton: This is really the greatest day of my life.
- Purple Monster: Unfortunately for you, Doctor, it is also the last day of your life.
- Dr. Cyrus Layton: Why, who are you?
- Purple Monster: My name would mean nothing to you. I've come from the planet which people on Earth call Mars.
- Dr. Cyrus Layton: From Mars? But you speak our language.
- Purple Monster: I speak all languages. Many years ago, my people invented and perfected a remarkable instrument known as the distance eliminator. With the aid of this device, I've been able to see and hear everything that happens on Earth.
- Purple Monster: You are Dr. Cyrus Layton. We've watched the progress of your work and have come to you for help. My own projectile, you see, has no provision for a return journey. I am anxious to see the plans for your jet plane.
- Dr. Cyrus Layton: I'm highly flattered, sir. I was afraid that my humble efforts might seem childish to a scientist from Mars.
- Purple Monster: On the contrary, this is just what I need. Your launching rocket is far superior to ours, and the anti-gravity device, which assures a safe landing, is superb. Are there other copies of the plans?
- Dr. Cyrus Layton: No, this is the only copy. My project is backed by the Scientific Research Foundation. We've tried to keep it more or less a secret until we're ready to let the public know.
- Purple Monster: That is a very wise precaution.
- Purple Monster: I am not mad. The invasion has only been delayed because of our inability to build ships that could safely land and return to Mars. Your plans have supplied that need.
- Dr. Cyrus Layton: Then you landed in the wrong country, my friend. Do you think the American people will sit by and do nothing while you build a jet plane for the purpose of bringing in an army of conquest?
- Purple Monster: Yes - because they won't know I'm building it. I intend to build it in the personality of Dr. Cyrus Layton. You see, I have the ability to kill you, enter your body and use it for my own purposes.
