1
00:00:10,640 --> 00:00:13,320
Countdown!

2
00:00:14,240 --> 00:00:20,560
Garsson visits Peo at
the Space Servo and asks to hear a story.

3
00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:23,760
50!

4
00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:30,520
Peo recounts the time that he, Mira,
Glen, and Henrik were beamed into space.

5
00:00:32,080 --> 00:00:33,800
40!

6
00:00:33,960 --> 00:00:40,160
They end up on a space ship
and are welcomed by the mysterious Alien.

7
00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:43,520
30!

8
00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:49,680
He gives them a choice:
traveling space, or returning to Earth.

9
00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:54,160
20!

10
00:00:54,320 --> 00:01:00,800
Mira makes the swing vote in favour of a
space adventure. An asteroid is spotted.

11
00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:07,600
Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four...

12
00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:11,040
...three, two, one, zero!

13
00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:06,800
There's so much crap around here!

14
00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:13,680
These lizards could do more than dance
—they could eat too. But clean? No!

15
00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:18,000
That's left for Garsson—who's on vacation!

16
00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:23,600
I could have been sipping
a throat-burner at the beach-

17
00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:26,600
-under the two suns of Ypsagon!

18
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:30,120
Then why aren't you, Garsson?

19
00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:36,280
Let me tell you why!
Because you're blackmailing me!

20
00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:42,160
I only promised to keep tellin
 the story if you help me clean.

21
00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:44,880
That is extortion!

22
00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:51,000
-Soon you'll make me mop the platform, too!
-Yes, that would be great.

23
00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:57,480
That's enough, Peo!
I am a wanderer, a man of the steppes-

24
00:02:57,640 --> 00:03:03,560
-trekking planet to planet.
My little visit here is over.

25
00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:06,720
Smell you later!

26
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:17,040
Peo, I'm too curious.

27
00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:23,240
What happened with
the burning asteroid? Did they make it?

28
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:31,840
-Curious?
-That is what I am, yes!

29
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:37,880
Let's go grab a couple of slushies
and I'll tell you some more...

30
00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:43,640
...and then you and Mutanthony
can clean the platform.

31
00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:47,360
Can't he clean it himself?!

32
00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:54,800
Mutanthony is no work horse.
He needs help from a professional.

33
00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:57,680
What will it be?

34
00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:03,320
Okay! Race you to the slushie machine!

35
00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:33,240
So, Peo, keep going!

36
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:38,280
This is your third slushie.
Don't overdo it.

37
00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:45,040
The combination of eating
and listening... It's so good.

38
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:48,800
Well, suit yourself. Here's how it went:

39
00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:01,840
Typical girl, she's too chicken!

40
00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:09,120
Asteroid warning!

41
00:05:09,280 --> 00:05:12,440
We have to get to the controls!

42
00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:15,200
Asteroid warning!

43
00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:22,160
-What does it read? What are they saying?
-It reads "asteroid warning".

44
00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:29,520
-He found a manual.
-There's no time, just guess!

45
00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:34,640
It's stuck. What do I do?

46
00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:41,600
What do I do, Glen? Ahhh!

47
00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:57,960
Thanks.

48
00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:03,120
-Well done, Mira.
-Well done, Glen.

49
00:06:03,280 --> 00:06:07,800
-How did you know which button to press?
-I had no idea.

50
00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:13,000

excitement and space adventures.

so we can get back to Earth.

53
00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:30,960
-Peo, I think it's too late.
-This is completely absurd!

54
00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:35,080
There must be a return window, right?

55
00:06:36,280 --> 00:06:43,080
Hello, Alien? Peo would like
to change his vote. Could you come out?

Congratulations on surviving the emergency.

Apparently we made
the right choice in you three.

61

And congratulations on
a whole summer in space.

Maybe you'll learn to love space.

64
00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:28,920
This is a recording. This message will
be delivered only once so listen closely.

65
00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:35,200
-You should listen to me!
-You are beginning your space training.

66
00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:38,480
You found your space suits.

67
00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:44,560
They can handle extreme temperatures
and protect against electric discharge.

68
00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:50,360
Especially Peo should have been wearing his
space suit, the way he's fumbling around.

69
00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:56,600
-I refuse to wear-
-Flying a spaceship is no easy task.

70
00:07:56,760 --> 00:08:04,280
But you will have knowledge
beamed into your brains-

71
00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:07,800
-using the Truth Percolator.

72
00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:14,360
Afterwards you will go through
a small training program on the bridge.

73
00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:19,840
Before training begins
there's something I'd like to say:

74
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:25,480
Your living space on-board
is limited to this room.

75
00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:29,000
The space-ship is considerably larger-

76
00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:35,040
-but the rear exit cannot be opened,
unless I recommend you do.

77
00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:42,040
I am the highest authority on-board,
even though I cannot be present in person.

78
00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:50,160
But everything you need is in here,
so you'll feel right at home.

79
00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:58,240
Alright, time to begin.
Meet at the Truth Percolator in 30 minutes.

80
00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:08,800
-What have you done?
-Awesome! We're gonna be Starship Troopers!

81
00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:13,800
-Knowledge burned into our brains...?
-Come on!

what I need for my homework.

7,000 years BC.

84
00:09:27,640 --> 00:09:34,080
No. You mean 500 BC to 800 BC.

85
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:37,240
I wonder if it hurts.

86
00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:40,560
-Are you scared?
-No.

87
00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:47,640
I think we should put on
our clothes before we power that thing on.

Bah! Oh well,

89
00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:05,520
A taxi driver on a space ship
is sillier than a jumpsuit, in my opinion.

90
00:10:05,680 --> 00:10:09,640
Maybe you should fly a space taxi, Peo?

91
00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:16,440
-I think Alien seems nice.
-Nice?

92
00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:22,880
-Yeah, chill.
-Why won't he show his face, then?

93
00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:30,000
Maybe it's like Alien, the movie.
He'll show up when you least expect it.

94
00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:39,360
-What is he doing?
-Maybe Alien is in your stomach.

95
00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:43,160
Or maybe Alien is just shy.

96
00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:48,480
-How do we know it's a <b>he</b>?
-Of course it's a he.

-What if it makes you lose your mind?

-Ladies first...
-I'll count down to zero.

of that before having kids, Peo.

-Pull yourself together! Work, work!

166
00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:28,680
-Wait a minute! Wasn't that Ulla?
-Yes, the world's sweetest Ulla.

167
00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:31,680
She worked the phones at the cab company.

168
00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:37,400
-But you're married.
-This was quite some years ago.

169
00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:43,200
I hadn't yet told her that I...
I'll tell you more about it later.

170
00:20:43,360 --> 00:20:49,840
I haven't seen Ulla around.
Is everything good between you two?

171
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:53,920
Oh yes, don't worry about it.

172
00:20:54,080 --> 00:21:00,280
After our wedding on Planet Ouggou
we went on our honeymoon.

173
00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:03,400
It was so romantic.

174
00:21:03,560 --> 00:21:10,040
We ended up spending the summer
getting kidnapped and getting into scrapes.

175
00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:15,360
Let's skip to when we took over the servo.

176
00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:21,640
-We took over together.
-I was here. What a day it was!

177
00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:25,320
Finally vacation after
20 years of hard work!

178
00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:31,800
Looking under the counter for
the first time was an incredible feeling.

179
00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:42,080
We were like made for running
things together. What a team!

180
00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:47,880
Between shifts we look after each other.

181
00:21:48,040 --> 00:21:50,920
I've never met anyone like Ulla.

182
00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:56,720
She's not just my babe,
but my best friend too.

183
00:21:56,880 --> 00:22:02,280
The servo may be small,
but I'm never bored.

184
00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:05,600
But where is she now, Peo?

185
00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:11,520
Well, just a few days before you
got here, Ulla started acting different.

186
00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:20,080
She said she had to go to Earth
to deal with something. No idea what.

187
00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:26,720
-I said I could take care of the servo.
-That went well.

188
00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:32,480
-This place was a mess!
-It's hard without Ulla.

189
00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:38,440
She usually runs things when I'm
in the sleep chute and vice versa.

190
00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:44,320
It's a good thing I stopped by,
as company, not to clean platforms.

191
00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:49,680
Thanks for the reminder.
That platform needs mopping.

192
00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:53,240
I think I'm a bit too full right now.

193
00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:59,280
-I wonder what Ulla is up to on Earth.
-I have no clue.

194
00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:04,840
She's a bit cunning, Ulla...
But I'm sure it's nothing bad.

195
00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:09,920
Speaking of nothing bad,
you're not bad at storytelling.

196
00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:15,160
What about Mira and
the others, did they leave Earth?

197
00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:21,680
I'll tell you a bit more...
Time had come to head for Jupiter.

198
00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:25,240
I had to take control of the situation.

199
00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:35,800
In 74 hours, 36 minutes, and 20 seconds
we dive into our first black hole.

200
00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:39,280
I hope you counted right.

201
00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:44,320
-What are you up to?
-We're going to Jupiter.

202
00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:51,440
What this place needs is a
responsible adult in charge. Let's see...

203
00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:55,640
Excuse me, Mr. Adult!

204
00:23:55,800 --> 00:24:00,880
While you've been watching TV
we learned how to fly this thing.

205
00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:07,040
Do you have a license?
That's right! I'll be in charge from now on.

206
00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:11,720
It looks clear. The gear shift...

207
00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:16,080
Like a Japanese car.
Where's the steering wheel?

208
00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:19,760
[WHISPERING]

209
00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:28,200
Captain, we'd like to report a discovery.

210
00:24:28,360 --> 00:24:34,760
That is a carbon atom refinery
which produces both... chips and beer!

211
00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:40,480
-Chips and beer, yes please.
-We don't have to leave yet.

212
00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:43,920
Why not get some snacks?

213
00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:52,720
-Don't touch anything!
-Captain Flatfoot.

214
00:24:52,880 --> 00:25:00,040
Before Mr. Adult comes back...
Glen, start the countdown and main engines.

215
00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:06,480
-Is the vector gyro course coordinated?
-Yes, captain.

216
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:13,200
Then let's hit it.
Fingers crossed? Let's go.

217
00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:20,920
Six, five, four-

218
00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:24,360
-three, two, one, zero!

219
00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:42,800
-Look, there's Galileo!
-We are on our way. Goodbye, Earth!

220
00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:47,960
Glen, compensatory puff on second left.

221
00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:59,960
-What was that bang?
-You'll find out if you come with me.

222
00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:10,200
-As soon as the platform is clean.
-Tell me more!

223
00:26:10,360 --> 00:26:16,280
Do you want to know about the black hole
and the adventure on the yellow planet?

224
00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:23,320
-Well then. Get going!
-You are so... Oh!

225
00:26:23,480 --> 00:26:26,480
It's cold, too.

226
00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:32,400
You're sending me out there?
You're worse than Gaia!

227
00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:48,720
Ohh...!

228
00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:57,680
Typical!

229
00:26:57,840 --> 00:27:04,240
Long sweeps, back and forth. This is fun.

230
00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:11,320
Looks good.
So, they were in quadrant four...

231
00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:15,520
That's that old planet, right.

232
00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:18,680
[BANG]

233
00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:25,080
I can fix this...

234
00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:41,240
How did Peo's boss find the Space Servo?

235
00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:47,200
How will things turn out for Mira
and the others? Find out next week.

236
00:27:47,360 --> 00:27:53,720
Until then: take care of Planet Earth—
anything could happen in space.
