| THE STORY |
|
While on an afternoon picnic, Lisa and Oliver learn that
Hooterville has been the center of several flying saucer sightings, though
one turned out to be a flying shoebox sighting (Which actually turned
out to be a low flying bus).
Later that night, the Douglases are awaken by Eb, who claims to be saying goodbye to a pair of aliens who flew off just before Oliver and Lisa arrived. The town is gripped by saucer mania, Eb becomes an instant celebrity, and the Douglas' farm becomes a tourist attraction. Although Oliver believes none of this nonsense, the government certainly does, and sends an Airforce Lieutenant to Hooterville to interview Eb. During the interview, anytime Eb tries to say anything specific about his alien encounter he can't seem to say anything but "bleep, bleep, bleep." This infuriates both the Lieutenant and Oliver, however when Oliver attempts to recount the story that Eb had previously told him, Oliver also is able to say nothing but "bleep, bleep, bleep." The Lieutenant leaves in disgust, Lisa tries to convince Oliver and Eb of their "bleeping" and the show ends when Oliver tosses the only evidence of Eb's encounter (a blank Polaroid photo) into their stove. The group leaves the kitchen, and the stove instantly turns bright green. (Agent Scully eat your heart out!) |
