Kyle walked around in the back of his van making everything neat. Jumba had assured him earlier that the gravitational compensators on his ship would prevent anything from getting mixed up but the mess in the back would prove otherwise. Not much had really been scattered about actually. Everything in the lockers mounted to the walls stayed put but there were a few milk crates whose contents were now scattered everywhere. Kyle sifted through the items. There was paper, pencils, books from previous college courses, and letters. Kyle picked the mess up and rolled out a mattress on the floor of the van. Kyle sat down on the mattress. It was getting hot. He opened the vent on the roof to allow air to ventilate. He sat down on the mattress again. He looked around at the stuff he had in his van. He was bored. Really bored. What was he doing here? He looked at his camera. Oh yeah. The photography assignment. He picked the camera and turned it on. There was a fresh roll of slide film in it.
Kyle got out of his van and looked around. There were so many things he could take a picture of that he had never seen before. For one there were palm trees. Kyle brought the camera up to his face and took a picture. "Kyle?" He turned around and saw Lilo in his viewfinder waving her hand. Kyle waved back after snapping a shot of her. Lilo ran down the stairs of her front porch and over to Kyle. "What are you doing here?" Kyle lowered his camera and put the lenses cap on. "I have three weeks of vacation from college so I decided I'd come down here." Lilo looked at the van. "Is that yours?" Kyle nodded. Lilo looked into one of the tinted windows. "What's in it?" Kyle thought for a while. "Stuff. Hey where is everybody?" "Nani's at work, Pleakly is in the kitchen cooking dinner, Jumba's out buying science supplies and stitch? Well..." Lilo pointed up at the dome above her house. There was stitch hunched over on the roof with his back towards the drive way. "He's been going up there lately to be alone. It's because... Well you know what it's like to miss someone you love right Kyle?" Kyle looked at his camera and started to fidget with it. "He fell in love with another experiment and just when we had turned her good Gantu came and took her away." Lilo looked at Kyle's camera. "Are you here for another assignment?" Kyle nodded still fidgeting with his camera. "Little Girl!" both Lilo and Kyle turned around. Jumba came walking down the driveway. "Jumba! You're back! Did you get what you needed?" Jumba looked at Kyle and smirked. Lilo looked back at Kyle with a confused face. "Jumba didn't go to get supplies. He went to pick me and my van up in New Hampshire."
"Gantu!" Gantu jerked out of a sound sleep and sat up strait in front of the view screen. "Y-yes sir?" Hamsterviel's eyes narrowed to slits. "Have you found the human yet?" Gantu shook his head. "And I assume that sleeping will make him walk right through your loading bay, into a capsule, and hop into the transporter?" Gantu put his had to his face and began to rub his forehead. "I don't think so! Now get up off your lazy patooki and find him!" The image in the view screen disappeared. Gantu sighed and walked back into the control room. There was 199 asleep in his swivel chair. Gantu cleared his throat. 199 blinked his eyes and yawned. "Sleeping on the job 199?" 199 took a double take. "What!? No. I was... just...yeah okay you caught me. But I have some new info!" Gantu grabbed 199 and brought him close to his face. "Why didn't you tell me immediately?" "Because..." 625 started. "...you looked so peaceful sleeping we decided to let Hamsterviel wake you up." Gantu groaned and threw 199 back into his chair. "What's the new information?" 199 spun his chair around and tapped a few keys. "A few hours ago Jumba returned in his space ship. If Jumba had really gone to get supplies he took way to long. In fact the amount of time he spent away from home is long enough to travel to New Hampshire, pick something or someone up, and return." 199 taped a few more keys and a video clip filled the screen and began to loop. "Here we have a short clip of a large van leaving the ship. And if we enhance one of the still frames..." a window surrounds the front end of the van and expands the image till it's the size of the screen. "...we are unable to make out the lettering of the state name but we are able to see a silhouette of a man. After cross- referencing with the united states land mark database we find out that this "face" is actually called "The old man in the mountain" which appears on a license plate of a car registered in New Hampshire." Gantu smiled but it quickly faded away. "What about the experiment that we received? Have you found information on it?" 199 spun around in his chair. "Jumba's files have no information on it. I even tried "un-deleting" files. There's just no record of it. Maybe Jumba wasn't responsible for its creation." 625 finished the last of his Reuben and walked over to the containment cell with the experiment in it. "Gantu, did it ever cross you dim witted mind that if Hamsterviel gave it to us than maybe he would know?"
