Andy Warhol: Very nice. Blink. That's good. Look in the camera.

 

Agent J: Is that Andy Warhol?

 

Agent K: Yep. Excuse me, Mr Warhol, could we have a minute?

 

Andy Warhol: Now is not a good time. This is a be-in.

 

Agent K: Just a few questions.

 

Andy Warhol: No questions. No answers. Just being.

 

Agent K: We have an urgent matter we’d like to discuss with you regarding one of your party guests.

 

Andy Warhol: Why don't you come back next week, after the happening has happened.

 

Agent J: I’m sorry, Mr Warhol. You like talking slow. We got important stuff to do. I've got a planet to save.

 

Andy Warhol: You're distressing². Everything about you upsets me. Damn it, K! Are you trying to blow my cover?

 

Agent K: Agent W, your cover is safe.

 

Agent J: Whoa, Andy Warhol is one of us?

 

Andy Warhol: Safe? You out of your mind? I'm so out of ideas. I'm painting soup cans and bananas for chrissakes.

 

Agent J: Actually, Mr Warhol, I gotta tell you, I really love your work.

 

Andy Warhol: Oh, thank you. Who's the dumb-ass?

 

Agent J: Whoa. Hey. How about a little professional courtesy here?

 

Andy Warhol: Was that dumb-ass?

 

Agent J: Say it again.

 

Andy Warhol: You want me to?

 

Agent J: I dare you.

 

Andy Warhol: Dumb-ass.

 

Agent K: Agents.

 

Agent J: You know, I have no problem pimp-slapping the shiznit out of Andy Warhol.

 

Andy Warhol: What?

 

Agent J: Why are you looking at me? Oh, all right. You know what? Agent K, while you see what information you can get from Agent W, I'll go case the perimeter³. That work for everybody?

 

Agent K: Go do that.

 

Agent J: How about that?

 

Andy Warhol: Oh, cute.

 

Agent J: Okay.

 

Andy Warhol: Very nice. Someone forget his nap?

 

Black transvestite: Hey, how you doing?

 

Agent J: Chilling.

 

Andy Warhol: Who's that guy? OK. Don't tell me he's your new partner.

 

Agent K: Actually, he's my old partner. He traveled back from the future to save the planet...

 

Andy Warhol: Jesus. Stop, don't tell me. I don't want to know.

 

Woman: Andy, Yoko's here.

 

Andy Warhol: Yoko's here. Tell her that I'm filming this man eating a hamburger. It's transcendent. All right, now the pickle⁴. So what are you doing on my turf, K?

 

Agent K: Tracking a killer⁵. Boglodite. We have reason to believe he's gonna hit here next, a Glamourian.

 

Andy Warhol: Glamourian? Right solar system, wrong planet. He's gotta be after the Archanan.

 

Agent K: You know, Archanans are extinct.

 

Andy Warhol: Apparently⁶ they are not. One washed ashore⁷ last week. The whole Roswell circuit's all abuzz about it. Alien unicorn⁸. Last of its species. His name's Griffin. Griffin the Archanan.

 

Agent J: How's it going?

 

Griffin: Going? How's it going? Oh that depends. For me, personally, it’s good, things are good. Unless of course we’re in the possible future, where the muscle boy argues with his girlfriend, which causes her to storm away and bump the guy carrying the stuffed mushrooms who dumps the tray on the sailors on leave. And a shoving match breaks out next to the coffee table here. In which case, I gotta move my plate right now. Or if it's the possible future where the pastrami sandwich I'm eating causes me gastric⁹ distress¹. But, thankfully, your friend, sir, will offer some of the antacids he carries in his right pocket, so good. I'll be good. Except in the case of the possible future where I have to leave in two and a half minutes just before he has a chance to offer me the antacids, so on the whole, I'd have to say not good. I am not good. But that depends.

 

Agent J: K!

 

Agent K: How will we gonna find this guy?

 

Andy Warhol: What am I, a schmuck?

 

Agent K: What? He's here?

 

Andy Warhol: "Here" is a relative term. He's a fifth dimensional being. They can live in and visualize¹⁰ an infinite set of time-space probabilities simultaneously¹¹.

 

Agent K: Sounds like fun. Good work.

 

Andy Warhol: Whoa, whoa, K, K, K. You gotta fake my death, okay? I can't listen to sitar music anymore.

 

Agent K: All right, I'll see what I can do. I'll talk to X.
