Bubba, who nobody thought to look for as he hid behind the bar next to the beer keg, decided it was time to check out that crash he heard earlier. But how will he sneak out--nobody must know that it was his long lost cousin (unknown to Bubba at that particular moment, who was cuddling the toilet in a semicircular body position.) He had gotten the ESP message earlier that TE (ET backwards--ET not home--yet) was coming to visit. Something about having to finish something first. Anyhow, Bubba decided that he might have to try something creative. What was that little grey box here stabbing him in the ribs he wondered. Moving just a little he saw it had a handle on it. Opening it he saw a big black switch. "Hmm, what does OFF mean?" he wondered. Flipping the switch from ON to OFF threw the room into total darkness. It was the main electrical switch for the bar. Now's his chance he thought and he ran as quickly as he could along the wall to the door. At least what he thought was the door.

"Like the little old lady in the supermarket on a mission to get to the specials first, he plowed first into KS who bounced like a superball back into the middle of the room. Next he spun off Kande like a professional football player trying to get that extra yardage. Putting his head down, Bubba kept going, around and around the room, not knowing that his little green body was starting to glow from the exercize.

In the meantime, everybody else just froze in their tracks while their eyes tried to adjust to the pitch black darkness of the room. Nobody seemed to know who turned off the lights. Even the Coke machine was dark. Nobody screamed. Pretty soon all one could hear was a lot of heavy breathing, little footsteps and a thump or two as somebody seemed to be running into everything and everybody.

Suddenly Bubba felt a hand grab him around the back of his neck, pick him up and toss him out the door. "Whew," he thought "glad that's over. I wonder who threw me out?" Looking down the driveway, he saw that his spaceship was not parked where he had left it. It wasn't in the driveway where it had been--it was half-way into the garage. Then he saw TE's ship and ran over to see if anybody was hurt. Climbing inside, Bubba heard a strange groan--sounded like somebody or something was slowly moving around in the next room of the ship. "TE, is that you?" he asked. Hearing no response, Bubba moved slowly on tiptoe (sort of hard to do when you don't have ten toes) and peeked around the corner. A smile slowly spread across his face (and around to the back of his little green head) when he saw TE sicker than he had ever seen a little green alien.

"TE, what is wrong?" he asked. Smelling something peculiar, Bubba asked again, somewhat louder "TE, what is wrong!"
