Galaxy Turnpike

Application to return to Earth

Attn; Sand-Sand Burger Inc.

Space Route 246666, aka 'The Galaxy Turnpike

runs from the region of the solar system

between the 5th and 6th planets

where the space colony 'Uzu-Shio lies

to form the original trunk road linking that

to the 3rd planet, Earth

There are shuttle stops along the way

along with several restaurants

to serve the travelers

but they are rarely ever busy

After 150 years of operation,

the route's advanced dilapidation

suggests to me that Highway 246666,

aka "Galaxy Turnpike"

barely merits continued existence

I recommend its immediate closure

Sorry I'm late

Could you manage?

Can't hear over the fryer

Forget it

There's nothing to worry about

You know today's a special day?

Once every 200 years, the Orga cluster

and the Veronica meteors

align precisely with

your planets, Venus & Jupiter

It's a very special day indeed

We nicknamed it "S.E.S."

short for "Super Erotica Straight"

On this day, all creatures great and small

feel Eros burning in their hearts

We can't know the reason

but I assume some magnificent force is at work

Even I can feel it

You can, too?

I'm horny as hell

Is that right?

Shall we order something?

The Cosmo Set Lunch will be 633 Cosmic Yen

Exact change, thank you very much

Next customer in line

Welcome

A tuna burger by itself.

How about a drink to go with it?

Certainly

Let me confirm your order

One moment, please

Get him to leave

Why'?

I don't like them

Don't be mean, he's a customer

Wherever they sit

they leave the seats soaking wet

It just needs wiping

Kurorons are kind and intelligent.

They're great singers, too

I know. They're really good

That's irrelevant. I don't want

them on our seats

- If he stands...

- Stop it

A tarpaulin at least

Please don't be upset

So, whats the matter now?

Can you hear me?

I wrote that letter

It was time I took action

That's a decisive move

Should've done it before. If they accept,

it's back to Earth for me

What happens to the restaurant?

Corporate will decide. It's not my problem

Did you tell the wife?

What's the matter?

Don't tell me...

That thing I mentioned the other day

My suspicions were right

Meaning...

I'm convinced now...

Noe's seeing some guy

What twigged you?

She has a new necklace, right here

Oh' deary me...

Was out "shopping" today for ages.

Meeting him, for sure

It does sound fishy...

I admit, it's partly my fault

You mus m 'I blame yourself

But I need time to myself, too

I understand

That's who you are

Enjoy your meal

Welcome

Let's sit there

Lei-chan...

Ms. Hana...

Sorry, could you handle this please?

Thank you

So, what do we get?

You promised not to spend much

Let's share a small fries

At least a coffee too. I'll go

Such coincidences actually happen, huh?

(Test fa vie... that's life

In the vastness of space, she has to turn up

here of all places...

The universe is full of mystery

I wonder if she's married'?

Her partner is an Assinus judging

by his pointy ears

I wonder how my husband will take it?

- What's up'?

- There's a dispute going on

Once again, please

For chrissakes...

I want a double-cheese SunSun Burger

and a cheese SunSun Burger

Should I add the single cheese order

to the double-cheese set lunch

or the double-cheese order

to the single cheese set lunch?

Or are they the same price?

So you want double-cheese

and single-cheese set lunches?

For the hundredth time, no!

That'd mean two drinks, right?

I don't want that, don't you see?

- Mr. Manager

- What's wrong?

A problem customer

Sorry about this

Step aside

I'll handle this

Not that I mind

I've got nothing against her

I'm sure the same is true for her

That was just people spreading rumors

We participants didn't care so much

Let people say what they will

So, do you think I should say hi?

That's for you to decide

But supposing I make myself known...

then she'll obviously want to see my husband

What's the worry?

Don't get me wrong, I'm fine

I'm not worried. They won't restart anything

I know him so well. He's not that type

Are you sure?

Maybe I'll just mention it in passing

It's just that...

it's not vital that they see each other

You already have your answer within

Am I a bad person?

Listen carefully

Adding the single-cheese to the double set

is the cheaper way to go

You just had to tell him that

- But...

- No "but" about it

Why does adding a single-cheese to it

mean that the price works out differently?

Don't worry about logic

Adding the double-cheese to one order is

the same as adding a single-cheese...

Shut up!

Sorry, it's a power outage.

A moment please, before it's restored

What's up now?

Sorry for the trouble, everyone

Noa?

Lei-chan?

What're you doing here'?

I'd ask you the same

I run this place

Is that right?

What a surprise

Come here

My husband, Baba Sahib.

He's an Assinus, as you see

It's the boy I mentioned.

From the theater group

I'm Baba Sahib

Nice to meet you

My wife has told me much about you

Is that right?

Let's take a seat

We get Assinii here sometimes

Really?

But that was the first time I got that greeting

What'?

What you just did

That wasn't a greeting

We Assinii don't do things like that

Do we?

How long have you been here?

It's been 3 years

I'm so glad your dreams came true

He always loved hamburgers

I'll try the fries

Help yourself

You should've ordered much more

We already ate

Don't play with your food

Been back to Earth?

Not since we opened this place

We're on our way there now

Is that right?

Waiting for the shuttle

Hey, look who's here

Come...

It's been ages!

Long time, no see

Noe, the wife thing really suits you

My husband...Noa's wife

Nice to meet you

How lovely to bump into you both like this

Do you think it's fate?

What do you recommend?

I'd say the Cosmo Burger.

You can't get it on Earth

Not today

I wish you would. Get two for them

Noa, it's too much

Don't worry. They don't cost much

We'd be delighted

Make it quick

Sure

I understand your concerns

I too felt the same way at first

But life demands you make the leap

Like the proverbial omelette

and the breaking of eggs

I do understand

Let me ask you...

What are you most worried about?

A disease, I guess

Listen, sir

The world is full of potential pathogens

Step foot outside and you're surrounded

by the cold virus

Yet you still venture out

You go to work, you take a walk...

Living in fear means you achieve nothing

This is the same thing

If my wife found out...

No way she can, unless you tell her

Even so...

I'll have to bear the guilt my entire life

You know that old adage about a man's pleasure?

It ranks male enjoyment according

to the choice of sexual partner...

Best is to sleep with another man's wife

Second is to claim a social inferior

Third's a lover, fourth is a pro

Last of all is a wife

One's own wife ranks last

Ever had sex outside the marriage'?

No, oi course rm

This is all about helping you
