Summary
Overview: Between a bully who likes to mash bugs in his hair, a pair of twin siblings who are more than a double handful, and a long absent father, Rod Albright figures he has about all he can handle. That's before the tiny spaceship Ferkel and its crew of five wacky aliens crashlands in a tub of papier mache in Rod's bedroom. When it turns out that the ship's enlarging ray is broken, the aliens decide to camp out in Rod's bedroom. Before long, cranky Captain Grakker is demanding Rod's assistance in tracking down an interstellar villain. By the time this wild and hilarious adventure is over, the fact that aliens really did eat his homework will be the least of Rod's worries.
