President Merkin Muffley:
I'm afraid I don't understand something, Alexi. Is your premier threatening to explode this if our planes succeed in carrying out their attack?
Ambassador de Sadesky:
No, sir! It is not a thing a sane man would do. The doomsday machine is designed to to trigger itself automatically.
President Merkin Muffley:
But surely you can disarm it somehow.
Ambassador de Sadesky:
No! It is designed to explode if any attempt is ever made to untrigger it!
President Merkin Muffley:
Automatically?
General "Buck" Turgidson:
It's an obvious Commie trick, Mr. President. We are wasting valuable time! Look at the big board, they're getting ready to clobber us!
