Flash Gordon, Transcript:

Racing high above the Earth, comfortably seated in a giant airliner, Flash Gordon, internationally famous athlete looks admirably across the aisle at Dale Harding, the lovely young companion on his air voyage.  The minds of both are intent on the terrible destruction that for many months has been approaching the Earth with terrific speed.  The new planet hurtling through space directly in the path of the Earth.  Suddenly there is a violent jar, the plane [plane distress noises play in the background] lurches into a spinning nose dive. Flash Gordon’s trained muscles carry him across the aisle to the frightened girl and leaps free of the falling plane and, pulling the ripcord of his parachute, glides to Earth.

Flash: Don’t be frightened Dale.  The plane has crashed, but we are safe.

Dale: Yes, thanks to you.

Flash: Hold tight.  We’re landing now.  Careful.  Easy.  

*Both grunt*

Flash: Are you alright Dale?

Dale: Yes

Flash: Good, good.

Dale: Oh look Flash!  [unintelligible sentence]

Flash: Why that’s the laboratory of the great scientist of _____ Barker.  He’s coming this way!
