✦ Synopsis

After two years of searching, Marvin has one last night to find proof of alien life.
Instead he gets drunk with his clone Reggie.
Marvin is such a failure as an archaeologist and has such a hangover that he can’t even see straight let alone crawl home.
Will his parents fire up the spaceship and take off without him? And if they do wait for Marvin, does he have to take his clone back to earth? What are people going to think of Marvin when they find out Reggie is one atmosphere short of an ‘M’ class planet?
Suddenly a little green man is pointing a ray gun at him. Marvin no longer gives a hoot about his reputation or the fact that his clone wants a turtle. Marvin wants to live but will the aliens let him?
