Alien from L.A. Page #5

---

Oh, just do your job, Rykov.

Kill the girl and her father.

I will...

and then I'll come back for you.

Unbelievable, Guten.

You've actually made it.

Who is he?

- My dad.

- Get in, Wanda!

General,

the aliens are approaching...

the outskirts of the city.

Statics at 58.

Intercept at 5.34.

Driver, head for

the outskirts of the city.

The General's vehicle has

turned for the outskirts, sir.

Follow the General.

Just don't lose her.

Professor Saknussemm,

I have to disagree with you.

According to my data...

the incline of the surface

world has changed slightly...

making the eastern regions...

the mouth

of the center of the world.

I don't doubt your knowledge,

professor...

but I've spent my life...

studying and searching

for the center of the earth...

and I obviously did find it,

and it wasn't in this direction.

Well, let me put it to you

this way.

I have

all the equipment you need...

for your ascent

into the surface of the world.

It's either my way or no way.

Dad...

do you think Professor Galba

can get us back home?

We'll see, honey.

It's straight on ahead, Guten,

and don't scratch my worm wagon.

Oh, sweetheart.

End of the journey, eh?

You're going home.

You should come visit us.

A vacation.

It's pretty impressive,

isn't it?

- It's magnificent, professor.

- Thank you.

According to my calculations...

my rock climber

would've blasted me...

right up to the surface.

My God, why didn't you go?

Ah, Rykov learned of my work,

and he shut me down.

I was ruined and tossed

out of the university.

I was thrown out

of the university, too...

but I wouldn't let that stop me.

Yes, yes. Some of us

give up our dreams...

more easily than others,

professor.

There's a difference,

professor...

between giving up and

leaving something unfinished.

You know, I never finished

anything in my life.

It's about time I did.

I want to go back to Roryis'.

If she'll take me.

She'll make you richer

than any mine, Gus.

Thanks for everything, Gus.

- It's time to go.

- No one's going anywhere.

You blew the deal

when you tried to escape.

Now we have orders

to execute you.

I thought you wanted us

to leave.

I'm sorry, professor.

You saw nothing.

Take the General away.

Whoa.

Bitchin' left hook, Crassus.

You better move out quickly,

professor.

I think she's going

to be a little upset...

when she wakes up.

Won't you get into trouble

for this?

It's a small price to pay.

Now move quickly.

Hold on tight to one another.

I love you, honey.

Remember our deal, professor!

Not a word to anyone!

We don't exist!

Bye, Wanda. We'll miss you.

You OK?

Well, Auntie Pearl...

I had this really weird dream...

that I went to Africa...

and fell down a bottomless pit

to the center of the earth.

Then I ended up in this city

called Atlantis.

I found dad, and...

Pretty weird, huh?

Hi, honey.

How are you, baby?

Oh, daddy, it wasn't a dream.

A dream come true, honey.

I love you.

Hey, Stacy, wait up.

- Hey, Robbie.

- How you doing?

Look, is it true about Wanda?

I heard she went to Africa...

actually took a plane

and everything.

Yeah, she actually

took a plane and everything.

Ahh, I can't believe it.

Nobody in Vista Verde

can believe it...

including me, including Susan.

Susan, Stacy.

- Why not?

- It's just not like her.

Are you sure this isn't

some scam to get me back?

Why don't you ask her yourself?

How about I pick you up tonight

and take you out...

and you can tell me

all about Africa?

But, Robbie, I still have

the same hair, the same voice.

Aw, it doesn't matter.

You've changed.

Yeah, I have.

Mmm. What happened to her

in Africa?

She grew up.

Excuse me. I was wondering

if you could help me out.

I'm a stranger around here...

from another time,

another place.

Crazy.

And in late news, there's been

unconfirmed reports...

of an alien escape

to the surface of the world.

What?

Lord Over

has issued a statement...

which reminds

citizens of Atlantis...

that there is no such thing

as a surface world...

and rumors of the actual

existence of aliens...

are wrong, misleading...

and counterproductive

to the future...

of our great city-state.

Anyone who thinks

they may have had contact...

with an alien,

female or older male...

should report immediately

to General Rykov...

at Government House.

There is a reward.

And finally, the statement

stresses once and for all...

aliens do not exist...

the surface world

does not exist...

and Wanda Saknussemm...

is a mere figment

of your imagination.
