Prymaat Conehead: Unacceptable! Unacceptable!

Beldar Conehead: On our home planet, Remulak, at this moment, all cones are celebrating the Harvest Under the Moons of Mipzor. Now, that's a party! All the gellato spirots will be harvested and smoked.
Connie Conehead: So what? Big deal!
Prymaat Conehead: The Harvest of Mipzor, long ago, was when I first saw Beldar's cone. How young and strong he looked as he pursued and captured the greased garthok, which was roasted for all to consume.

TRIVIA

First appearance of Gilda Radner's 'Roseanne Roseannadanna' character, who appears here in the "Hiring the Incompetent" sketch. The character's name was a play on that of "Eyewitness News" (1968) reporter and anchor Rose Ann Scamardella.
Although it was joked about in the cold opening, Charles Grodin actually did miss rehearsal. Grodin ended up clumsily ad-libbing throughout the show. He was never asked to host again.
