- Compliance,

That's great,

- Now could you slow down a little?

- Compliance,

Cool,

Would you like me

to adjust the temperature?

No,

We are precisely 20 miles from

point of origin, as you requested,

You are wasting time,

Give me the star charts now,

Not now, I gotta go,

- Go? Where?

- To the bathroom,

- Do not know "bathroom,"

- Then open the door,

Request explanation,

Just do it or you'll be sorry,

I'll be right back, I promise,

Do not know "promise,"

Damn! How did that kid get outside?

We had security everywhere,

Gotta get control of the situation,

Sir, over here,

There they are,

About 20 miles west of here,

Get some choppers out there immediately,

What are you doing?

- Can't I have a little privacy?

- Do not know "privacy,"

Moo!

What are you doing here anyway?

I have been sent from Phaelon

to borrow samples of life

from different galaxies for study,

On this planet, I chose you,

- Why me?

- Why not?

Back on Phaelon, we discovered

that your inferior species

uses only ten percent of your brain,

So we filled it all the way up with star

charts to see what would happen,

- What happened?

- It leaked,

- Navigator,,,

- I am not a navigator!

Yes, you are,

I crashed into electrical towers

and my star charts were erased,

I need the ones in your head

to complete my mission,

So you need me and my inferior brain

to fly that thing?

Correction, I need the superior information

in your inferior brain to fly this thing,

Well, if I'm so inferior, how come

you took eight years to bring me back?

Normally, I take my specimens

back in time

to the exact moment

and place I collected them,

Come on!

You took me away from my family!

And when you returned me,

it was eight years later!

Everything's changed, except me!

Unfortunately, we discovered

it was too dangerous

for your fragile human body

to travel back in time,

OK, if I can't go back in time,

at least take me back to my family,

Come aboard quickly, Navigator,

Not until you promise to take me home!

We've spotted 'em,

The boy's outside the ship,

Can you keep them

on the ground?

Very well, You give me the star chart

and I'll take you home,

Come on, Let's get outta here,

- He's gone back into the ship,

- Don't let them take off!

- Request instructions,

- I don't know,

- Just,,, just get us out of here!

- Compliance,

My God, it changed shape,

Can you follow it?

Follow it? I can't even see it,

- Hey, this is fun,

- Fun, Navigator?

- My name's David,

- David?

Yeah, So what do I call you, anyway?

- I am a trimaxion drone ship from,,,

- Trimaxion?

- Affirmative,

- OK, I'll call you Max, It's easier,

- Max?

- Right,

Just take me somewhere

where they can't find us,

Compliance,

What are you doing?

Agh!

I didn't say take us under the ocean,

All I asked for was a place

they couldn't find us,

This was the first place

suggested by my data banks,

- Will this thing leak?

- Navigator, I do not leak,

You leak, Remember?

Hm,

I must program my circuitry

for the mind transfer,

Wow! What are these?

Those are the other specimens

we studied on Phaelon,

- Where do they come from?

- Don't touch!

That is a Garpuntle

from South Petrawlis,

Once he bites, he never lets go,

What's this?

That is a Feenastarus

from the Pixar Elliptic,

Weird, What are they doing here?

After I drop you off, I will travel back in time

and take them to their homes,

just as if they never left,

- What's that?

- A very unpleasant little creature,

- What's his problem?

- He's got a cold,

Ew, gross,

Don't get too close, David,

They're hungry,

That could've been your head, David,

What's in here?

Ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai!

What's this one?

That is a Puckmarin

from Binpuka Minor,

He's not dangerous,

- Can I hold him?

- Just keep him quiet, I'm concentrating,

Hey, little Puckmarin,

how long have you been here?

What's he saying?

He is angry because I won't take him

back to his home planet,

He does not know

it was destroyed by a comet,

That makes him an orphan,

I wish I could take you home with me,

Jeff would really flip out,

Listen, He's laughing,

What is the purpose of laughing?

The purpose?

I guess it makes you feel happy,

You should try it,

Ha-ha-ha! Ha-ha,,,

Ha-ha-ha! Ha-ha-ha-ha!

Ha-ha-ha! Ha-ha!

- Nothing, No sign of them at all,

- That's wonderful,

I just lost two of the most important

discoveries of the 20th century,

- What else could possibly go wrong?

- Sir, it's the kid's father,

Faraday,

Dr, Faraday, how's David?

Well, uh, actually, Bill, it's been

kind of a rough day for all of us here,

Ah,

Well, is he there now? Can I talk to him?

Uh, well, he just seemed to want to have

some time to himself, Know what I mean?

Well, just tell him to call me

as soon as possible, Will you do that?

Sure, I will be glad to have him

call you as soon as I see him, OK?

OK, Bye-bye, Bill,

Who was the last person to see David?

- Carolyn McAdams, An intern on the base,

- Get her, I wanna talk to her right away,

- Her shift ended about an hour ago,

- Just find her!

Gotta keep a lid on this somehow,

I am ready to perform the mind transfer,

Sit here, Navigator,

- Will this hurt?

- You will feel nothing,

- Will I remember everything?

- You will retain all data,

How many times

have you done this thing?

- Zero,

- Zero? You mean never?

I'm not gonna let you try this out on me,

What if you fry my brain?

- I will not fry your brain,

- How do you know?

I have been programmed

with superior intelligence,

- Lie down,

- OK,

- That's it?

- That's it, Davey!

Davey?

If you want to learn to swim, you gotta jump

in the water, Don't forget to feed Bruiser,

Two all-beef patties, special sauce, lettuce,

cheese, pickles, onions

on a sesame-seed bun,

Whoa! Ha-ha! This can't be happening,

I think I've gotten stuff out of you that has

nothing to do with navigating this ship,

You sound just like a human,

No! That dumb dog will

never learn to catch a Frisbee,

You are an inferior species,

you dumb dork!

- Butt-face!

- Scuzz-bucket, Ha-ha!

Hey, well, if you're so perfect,

what are you still doing here?

I told you, I blew a fuse

when I totaled out that electrical tower,

- I was checking out some daisies,

- You crashed while looking at flowers?

- Sounds like you're the inferior species,

- I'll show you who's inferior, Heads up!

- Hey, take it easy,

- Well, ex-cuuuuse me!

You OK?

Why are we going way up here,

you geek?

Geek?

I swear to God, if I was flying this thing,

we'd be home by now,

- Oh, yeah?

- Yeah,

- Yeah?

- Yeah!

OK, turkey, you fly it!

OK, quit fooling around,

Come on, this isn't funny!

Do something!

- I take it back, We're equal, OK?

- Equal? You called me a geek!

You're not a geek!

Max, I want you to turn on

all engines now!

That's an order from your navigator!

Oh, now you're a navigator,

So navigate already,

It looks like it's out of control and falling,
