- Fred Miller: [they are in a mini-submarine] We maintain normal atmospheric pressure in here by a special mixture of Oxygen and Helium.
- T.R. Hollister: Never mind the scientific lecture, Miller. Just what is this crazy project you dragged me down here to see?
- Fred Miller: Mr. Hollister, this project meets the most important challenge of the future.
- T.R. Hollister: Never mind the future, just give me the past. And oysters.
- T.R. Hollister: There she is!
- T.R. Hollister: Where?
- Fred Miller: Right there. Dead ahead.
- T.R. Hollister: Well, I see where is it, but what is it? It looks like a large onion.
- Fred Miller: That's what we call it: "The Green Onion".
- T.R. Hollister: $200,000 for an underwater onion?
- Fred Miller: It's a house. A completely self sufficient, underwater house.
- T.R. Hollister: A house for what? Flounders?
- Fred Miller: Underwater living is coming, T.R. It has to. At the present population growth in the predictable future, there'll be one human being for every square foot of land on Earth. Can you imagine what that means? This is your future living space
- [he uses his hands to indicate a square foot]
- Fred Miller: unless...
- [he points to the Green Onion]
- T.R. Hollister: Well, people weren't meant to live underwater.
- Fred Miller: Or fly, or go to the moon. We can't continue to ignore 71% of the Earth's surface, T.R., just because it's underwater. Wait till you see the inside!
- Merv Griffin: Ladies and gentlemen, we'd like to present to you a very special segment of our show from a very special place. I'm in a house somewhere in the Atlantic Ocean, under 90 feet of water, speaking to you from the very eye of Hurricane Hazel. So now you music lovers, fasten your seat belts, for the first time anywhere, anyplace, a brand new rock group called "The Green Onion", and their manager, Nate Ashbury, tells me he is stoned on these shouters, that they're mellow yellow, turned on and groovy and the lead chick is so wigged out, she's out of sight. Not only that, I hear they're very good. So here they are folks, The Green Onion, and their latest creation "Glub".
