Also a bit of dialogue from the spoof SF TV show _Quark_, in which
the Good Guys are trying to beat their enemies, the evil Gorgons,
in a race to find an ancient artifact called "It":

Gene/Jean: "I got a plan, commander."

Quark: "What is it, Gene?"

Gene/Jean: "No Gorgie's gonna beat me to It!"  [runs off]

Quark: "Gene!  Come back!  You don't just *do* a plan, you *talk*
   about it first!"
