Hogarth:
[after seeing Giant; calmly] So, I guess you're not gonna hurt me, huh? [Giant holds his hand out as Hogarth cringes and gasps. He reveals the shut-off switch that lands on the ground; surprised] The shut-off switch. [to Giant] You saw me save you. [Giant looks at him innocently] So... where... are you from? You came from the sky, right? From up there? [Giant looks up] Don't you remember anything? Hmm, maybe it's that bump from your head. [Giant places his finger on his head, feeling the dent.] Do you talk? You know words? "Blah, blah, blah," like that? Can you do that? Blah, blah, blah?

Giant:
[in a rusty voice] Blah, blah, blah.

Hogarth:
Well... you get the idea anyway. [picks up a rock] See this? This is called a rock. Rock.

Giant:
Rock!

Hogarth:
Good.

Giant:
[picks up a boulder] Rock?

Hogarth:
Yes!

Giant:
[picks up a tree] Rock!

Hogarth:
No, no. That is a tree. [points to boulder] Rock... [points to tree] ...tree. Get it?

Giant:
[looks at boulder] Rock. [looks at tree] Tree.

Hogarth:
That's right! [to himself] Wow, my own giant robot, I am now the luckiest kid in America! This is unbelievable. This is the greatest discovery since, I don't know, television or something. I gotta tell someone. I should call some-- No. They'll panic. [to Giant] People will always wig out and start shooting when they see something big like you.

Giant:
[confused] Hmm?

Hogarth:
Wig out. It means crazy. You know like, uh-- [makes a crazy face and babbles; Giant mimics him] No, no! Don't do that! That's the kind of stuff that makes them shoot at you.
