Actually, Morbeus is speaking about the door that seals off the ancient
Krell laboratory from the entrance tunnel. The commander (Nielsen) points
and tells Morbeus that pretty soon the Monster from the Id is going to be
coming right through that door. To which Morbeus (Pigeon), apparently
astonished, says: "Solid Krell metal, Twenty-six inches thick."
