That poster on the wall has some serious legs.
There's a pipe rack on the desk ... there's hope for smoking!
... and a MASSIVE ashtray on the secretary's desk!
Monster spunk found!
Hollister has gone all bug-eyed! One also assumes he's dead.

We are now in the crawling on the floor looking for a dropped ladybug portion of the film.
The pipe is in the mouth ... the matchbox is out and open ... AND THE PIPE IS LIT! We have smoking!

The blood was drained from the body through a puncture wound.
And, "scared to death" is the cause of death for the second one.
Ham sandwiches being served in the morgue!
"I'd like to talk to you about your beach."
A simple moonlight swim. Little did they know ...
Death count now five.
More radioactive monster spunk!
And, we have coffee served to a diver!
One diver keeps gaining and losing extra weight belts.
There's a giant weather balloon / egg on the floor of the Salton Sea. I think I'll poke at it.
And we finally see the creature!
(just an aside - those aren't mikes on the divers, it wouldn't sound like that anyway, and there's no kelp growing in the Salton Sea.)
And the diver goes bug-eyed as the creature sucks the blood from his neck!
Spunk monster spunking off the port bow!
Stick to the eye!
To make sure it's dead, we're going to do the equivalent of carpet bombing with depth charges.

The creature doesn't look anything like that snail.
I'm sorry, I zoned out with all the talking heads.
We've now been told the federal bank stakeout story twice.
Wait, did we just make a quick trip across the border for dinner?

Yay! Giant snail shells found!

So much for the rabbits.
Tension builder - will the rescuers stop for breakfast?
Grabs a fire extinguisher - ignores the FIRE AXE RIGHT ABOVE IT
Spunk monster down!
Glad he did think to wrap his hands in a towel while holding a thin flexible steam pipe ... be he'd still lose skin on his palms by then.
And we're done! Ladybug girl can swim again.
The pen never got used.
