Alien from L.A. Page #3

- Oh, no, you don't.

Listen, I got to wait until

tomorrow to file my claim...

so I figure I'll help you

look for your dad.

Gee, thanks, Gus.

I'm only doing it

so's l can get rid of you.

You're a pain in the neck,

and you're cramping my style.

Come on.

Let's get something to eat.

You aliens eat, don't you?

Yeah. I'm starving.

- What about Roryis?

- Just swell.

You love her, don't you?

I got to figure out

a way to find your dad...

and get you home.

Sit down.

Bet you you've never been

to a place like this before.

I'll say.

Take your order now?

The house special.

What do you want?

Make it two.

Coming right down.

Any ideas

on how to find my dad?

Yeah, no. Not yet.

I don't think too well

on an empty stomach.

Gus,

things are really weird here.

Not like

the surface world, huh?

Great. The food's here.

Yuck! You're not going

to eat that, are you?

Hey, watch.

Delicious.

My dad's a professor, Gus...

and I bet he'd really like

to study you.

Think I know someone

who can help you out.

- You do?

- Yeah. Stay put.

- I got to use the phone.

- Oh, that's great, Gus.

Alien.

Dad?

I'd like the number for

Professor Ovid Galba, please.

I can take you to your dad.

- Come with me.

- I'm looking for my dad.

Well, do you have

a last known address?

Welcome to Membino's...

the boss of bosses.

Tonight, we have a lineup...

which is sure to satisfy

your lust.

Remember... anything goes...

and only one walks out.

Death is promised.

Bookies will circulate

throughout the fight...

for your betting pleasure.

On my left, Treasure.

Come on, kid!

On my right, Smasher.

Now let the fight begin.

- What is it, Shank?

- A girl.

I can see that.

I want to know why you have

brought her here to me...

to Membino,

to the boss of bosses.

I overheard her talking,

Membino.

She claims to be an...

Speak, Shank.

Who did the girl claim to be?

An alien.

There's no such thing.

OK. I'll take her bones

elsewhere.

I never said

I wasn't interested.

I could always use another

dark girl with big bones.

She'll cost you

five hundred shiny ones.

Pay her

four hundred shiny ones.

- Four hundred shiny ones?

- Don't push your luck, Shank.

- All clear.

- Yep.

I have got information to sell

about an alien wench.

And for 750 dollwans...

I'll tell you

where she's hiding, counsel.

General Rykov, please.

Hello, Crassus.

You want us

to arrest another alien?

I don't know.

I don't trust Shank.

I have to hide the girl

somewhere.

Maybe in my bed.

I'm Mambino...

boss of bosses.

I'm sending you

to the government.

Why?

Because they buy aliens.

Alien?

You think I'm an alien?

All right. Let's get ready

to move the mountains.

Hey, which way?

Around the corner.

I'm looking for a girl

with big bones.

That way.

Guten Edway.

I heard you were dead.

I'm looking for a girl

with big bones.

Where did I see her?

- Where's the girl?

- I saw them go through there.

Come on, place your bets.

Hey, watch it!

Sweetheart showin' some spunk.

Big confidence from an alien...

who walks like a troll,

dresses like a worm...

and has the voice

that gives everyone a headache.

I like her voice, Mambino.

Guten Edway.

Gus.

I thought you were dead.

Well, I'm back.

Get lost, Edway.

You never did

anything for anyone.

You're too selfish to be a hero.

Go on, move...

before I make you wish

you stayed dead, Guten.

Call me Gus!

Kill him! Kill him! Kill him!

Come on.

I was just sitting there

waiting for you...

when this woman

wearing too much make-up...

All right, all right.

There's no time.

Look, I think I know someone

who can help you out.

His name's Professor Galba...

and I think he can get you help,

but I got to find him first.

He's moved to a district

called The Pits.

What about my dad, Gus?

We can't leave without him.

What if I can only

get you home?

I won't go without my dad, Gus.

Wanda, sooner or later,

they're going to find you...

and if they find you,

they could kill you.

So, if we can get you out,

you got to go, understand?

Not without my dad, Gus.

How about we separated?

Meet at Roryis'.

I'll meet you at Roryis'!

Yeah! Come back here!

Come back here!

Sector 107.

Hurry. Come with me.

There she is! There she is!

Come back here! Where

do you think you're going?

Attention, attention.

There is a fugitive

in your area.

Do not move until

the police have cleared you...

and you must have IDs with you.

- That way. Come on.

- Where? Where?

Hey, stop!

I've got an idea.

If Shank fails us...

I think I know how to find

Wanda Saknussemm.

- Lotto.

- Lotto, General?

Attention, attention.

There is a fugitive

in your area.

Do not move until

the police have cleared you.

Have your slab ID...

Where?

Ring, watch, ring, watch, Veena.

Pie pistol and lots of

lotto money will be yours.

You will be rich

beyond your wildest dreams.

Isn't that right, Veena?

She's out there...

somewhere, anywhere.

She could be standing

right next to you.

It's you! I won, I won!

- Let me! No, she's mine!

- I saw her first!

- Here!

- She's mine!

Get away! She's mine!

It's easy to play lotto.

Just find the big-boned girl.

Capture her and bring her

to Government House...

to collect unimaginable...

There she is. Lotto prize.

Excuse me, madam.

May I help you?

Yeah, sure.

Perhaps madam would like to

look at some troll leisure wear.

Extra large, I think.

It's so simple.

What are you waiting for?

Capture the big-boned girl...

and you'll be rich

beyond possibility.

Play lotto and win money.

She's worth

millions and millions...

of shiny big trusty ones.

Oh, fun.

Yes, it is,

and here's how it works.

Have you seen this female?

- She's got big bones...

- How in bloody hell...

Find her...

and take her

to the Government House.

There you will receive

your prize.

I had a hell of a time

finding you, professor.

Why'd you move to The Pits?

Why did you risk

life and limb to find me?

Well, professor, I've done you

a ton of favors, right?

What about all those times

I gave you...

valuable junk for free

because you was tapped out?

Those favors were minute,

insignificant, and microscopic.

Aw, come on, professor.

Give us a break.

What about the time

I came and bailed you out...

when your worm wagon

got repossessed?

OK, Guten,

you were more than a friend.

Let's not get slushy here.

Anyway, the favor out.

What do you want?

You were kicked out

of the university...

for yapping about there being

a surface world, right?

Aliens and stuff.

Well, professor, how'd

you like to meet an alien?

Oh, splendid.

Of course, it's

the very latest from Lumaria.

And look, it almost fits.

But, of course, on you,

it looks absolutely smashing.

- Will there be anything else?

- No. Just this.

All right, well,

rusty dull ones or charge?

Attention, citizens!

Remember...

This is worth my walkman

and my dumb purse.

It works as a disguise.

Simply find the girl

with big bones.

Do whatever you want,
