Where I Really Come From (2021)

Seth Rogen: Allen the Alien

Quotes 

• Allen the Alien : So... you're a Viltrumite? But you don't work for them? And your dad tried to take over the planet but then left? He just left? That's nuts, man.

  Invincible : Yeah. As far as we can tell, my dad is just gone.

  Allen the Alien : That is super weird for a Viltrumite. They don't just give up. They're relentless. They destroyed my world when my people rebelled against them. They blew up our planet rather than lose it.

  Invincible : Jesus... I'm sorry.

  Allen the Alien : Don't be. From the sounds of it, I'm the one who should be apologizing. If I'd checked my orders properly, I would've seen that Earth was flagged for Viltrumite takeover. I could have warned you.

  Invincible : I would have just gone to my dad and told him everything. Who knows what would have happened then?

  Allen the Alien : I can't imagine what you're going through. Literally. Like, I have no concept of it. With my home world gone, my people had to create breeding camps just to stop us from going extinct. I've never even met my father.

  Invincible : After the last few days, I'm jealous.

  Allen the Alien : The Coalition of Planets will want to hear about you. A power struggle's brewing in the farthest reaches of space.

  Invincible : What kind of power struggle?

  Allen the Alien : The Coalition is trying to unite enough worlds to stop the Viltrumite empire. The thing is... no one's even heard of a Viltrumite abandoning their post. It's insane. It just doesn't happen. This could be the advantage we've been looking for.

  Invincible : Sure. Let me know if I can do anything to help.

  Allen the Alien : I don't get why you're smiling?

  Invincible : Just thinking about everything I've been through. How huge it all feels. But the fact it's just a small part of something much larger makes it all seem more... manageable. I don't know. But it helps.

  Allen the Alien : Sorry to rain on your parade. That happens on Earth, right? Anyway, once they find out your father took off, the Viltrumites are gonna come for you. Trust me, when they set their sights on a planet, they don't give up without a fight.

  Invincible : I'll be ready.

  Allen the Alien : I hope so. What's the plan in the meantime?

  Invincible : Finish high school, I guess.

  Allen the Alien : Oh, all right. Good. Sounds good.

  Allen the Alien : What is high school?
