Night of 25:

"Sir, the subject is approaching the territory of North Corea at Mach 10. Awaiting for order."

[Murmuring: Fat old idiot... we warned you...]

"Arm the missiles! Engage!"

The president [Orson Welles, vaguely Nixonian] to the psychopath general with a cigar [Yul Brinner]: 'WaaAaAAAAAAaaaAaAAA! Bring us to Defcon2'

The general: 'We shall destroy him! And we shall prevail'. Starts to sing and dance.

The black general [Anthony Quinn] voice of wisdom, with a Hungarian accent for some reason: 'But Sirrrrr!'

The scientist [Paul Newman] barging into the room: 'No! Stop!' Proceeds to stare into the camera for 30 seconds.

The secretary [Katharine Hepburn]: 'We tried! Ah! We tried to stop him! Ah! No! Ah!' Wails uncontrollably.

The phone rings. It's the Soviet leader [Anthony Quinn, this time with a a Jamaican accent]...
