To Jim Hester:  I think your theories are all wrong, if you take into account
the original story mentioned by Keiran Carroll.  In this story, the human has
just helped Gort to revivify (actually, reconstruct) the dead Klaatu, and as
Gort is carrying Klaatu to the ship to leave, the dialog goes something like
this...  (note, Gort could speak in this story)

Human:  "Gort, when your master awakens, please tell him it was an accident."

Gort:   "You don't understand.  *I* am the master."


Obviously, things were changed around a bit for the movie!  Still one of the
all-time SF classics.
