Risenpeter, is, of course, an anagram for Enterprise. I wanted to include lots of Star Trek humor in this storyline. The Muffin is a reference to the characters’ ship in the brilliantly funny Legostar Galactica.
Lots of us have had bad days, but when was the last time you got assigned monitor duty, got abducted by aliens, got probed and then had your face melted off?
I’ll admit, I love the line “Did it just get drafty in here?”.
It’s a given that if you are abducted by aliens, you’re going to get probed.
Fortunately, it appears Slick isn’t going to be inspected through the “out door.”
Back when Star Trek: Deep Space Nine was on the air, I often referred to it as Bumpy-headed-alien-of-the-week, because it seemed like all the various alien races were mostly just guys in makeup, instead of really alien aliens.
My LEGO aliens are just guys in makeup as well.
The first two lines Slick speaks are a direct quote from Ash in the cult movie Army of Darkness. Right after that, he wakes up and finds out he’s been tied down by a bunch of miniature clones of himself, and then one jumps into his mouth, and, oh just go rent it.
