[[Outside the army base, a man (identified as "Pete" in the strip) is talking to two other men about something he saw.]]
Pete: I'm telling you guys~!! The thing flew right over my shed!!
Man 1: Yeah~!! A FLYING SAUCER!! Right!!
Man 2: We believe you, Pet!! Heh heh~!!
[[A woman runs up to them, gesturing to the base behind her.]]
Woman: Guys~!! There's something GOOFY going on over at the army base!!
Man 2: Goofy?!?!
Woman: Yeah!! The place is on high alert ~ and crawling with extra BRASS and guys in BLACK SUITS and~
Woman: I heard some take around town that it has something to do with some kind of strange SAUCER-SHAPED CRAFT that landed out in the desert!!
[[Man 1 and Man 2 exchange stunned looks.]]
Man 2: [to Man 1] You don't think~!!
Man 1: Nah~!! It's just a COINCIDENCE!!
Man 2: [to Pete] What'd you say that thing LOOKED like, Pete?
Man 1: [to Pete] Yeah~!! SAUCER-LIKE, you said?!?
[[We see Emily and Flavoura standing nearby, listening to the conversation with worried looks on their faces.]]
