Rachel's Rocket
Harvey McKenzie is wandering around the KND Convention Center, looking for his sister.
"Rachel?! Where are you?!" Harvey shouts out before he stumbles across her working on a massive rocket ship.
"Hey, Harv! How do you like it?!" Rachel shouts down to him.
"Wha… what is it?" Harvey asks, in awe at the scale of the rocket.
"It's a rocket ship!" Rachel shouts back and she leaps off of the scaffolding to get down to him.
"What are you doing with the rocket? Romantic space getaway with Nigel Uno?" Harvey jokingly asks, earning a smack upside the head.
"No, you little brat." Rachel says. "This is for my deep space trip to Mars."
"Oh cool, can I come?" Harvey begs.
"Ha! No way, Harvey." Rachel answers. "Especially after your last experiment with the hamsters." Rachel points Harvey towards a monitor. A goblin-like hamster is attacking other hamsters on a glider.
"Oh come on I'll be good, and I won't break anything." Harvey pleads.
"Harvey, this trip isn't for fun. I'm going there as a surveyor." Rachel replies.
"But Rachel, I'm good at surveying." Harvey pleads. "I did get a B+ on my map test." Before Rachel can argue she begins to think to herself, "Hmm, maybe I could use him as a test dummy."
"Fine, Harvey. You can come and hang in the cargo hold." Rachel says.
"YES!" Harvey says as he begins running around the rocket. "Going to the moon! Moonride, moonride, moonride, moonride, moon-"
"But this time don't touch anything!" Rachel says, clotheslining Harvey. "Now come on, there's equipment I need to show you."
Rachel takes Harvey to a storage room with net guns for collecting rocks.
"Cool stuff, Rach." Harvey says. "Are you gonna hunt aliens with those?"
"Aliens?" She questions. "Harvey these are for collecting rocks and Numbuhs 74.239 and 2 are gonna study to see if it's sturdy enough for us to build a base on Mars. Where did you hear about aliens anyway?"
"Oh come on. You never believed there could be life out there in the universe?" Harvey questions.
"Of course I have, but I've looked at the surface with telescopes and satellites, and saw no signs of aliens. The air isn't breathable, unless we can make it breathable somehow." Rachel answers.
"Ah whatever, I'll believe it when I see it." Harvey scoffs.
"Then head back home and get some shut eye." Rachel orders. "I'll need you back here tomorrow bright and early."
At the McKenzie house, Harvey is having trouble sleeping. When he finally settles down, he hears a knock at the door. He goes to answer it and finds Tommy Gilligan standing in the doorway.
"Hi, Harvey." Tommy greets.
"What do you want, Tommy?" The tired Harvey asks. "It's 2 in the morning, I'm trying to sleep."
"Well I brought a gift over for you."
"Ooh, is it the 'Moondance' vinyl?" Harvey asks.
"No." Tommy answers. "Now listen, I know you're going on that Mars trip tomorrow. And I was wondering… is your sister's rocket alien proof?"
"There aren't any aliens, Tommy." Harvey says. "Even my sister said so."
"Hmmm… really? Then I guess you won't need this Martian repellent!" Tommy says, shoving a canister in Harvey's face.
"Hmmm. All Aliens Away." Harvey reads. "Warning: Does not stop burglars. Oof, maybe you're right Tommy. We better spray those windows."
Arriving at the Convention Center, Tommy stares up in awe. "Ooh."
"Yeah it's something alright." Harvey says. "No remember, we're just here to spray the windows."
"Well how do we get inside?" Tommy asks before eye a lever.
"We don't! We're just here to spray the…" The door opens up and all falls on top of Harvey. "windows."
"I opened it, Harv!" Tommy then rushes into the rocket. "Let's check it out!"
As they walk in, Tommy begins to play around with the controls as if it's a video game.
"Yay! I'm winning!" Tommy shouts as Harvey tries to pull him away.
"Tommy, come on, we have a job to do. AND this is my sister's rocket, not some kind of fun-" Harvey stops as he looks in a mirror that makes his head look bigger. "house?" He then smiles and sits down next to Tommy on a bench.
"So what game was that, Tommy?"
"I'm not sure, but look at this." Tommy then pulls a lever that launches them out of the seat and out the top of the rocket. "I like rockets, Harvey." They both scream as they fall back onto the bench.
"More, more!" Tommy says before Harvey stops him. "No more!" Tommy pushes the button anyways, which rattles the ship. "Ok one more, Tommy." The ship rattles again.
"Hey look, I think this one starts it." Tommy says.
"Uh Tommy, I'm the space traveler here. And I happen to know that the start button is right here." Harvey accidentally pushes a green button and the rocket begins to lift off. Hearing the alarms and seeing smoke, Rachel wakes up knowing Harvey is somehow responsible.
Harvey and Tommy are pinned to the ground by the sheer force of the lift off, but as they leave the atmosphere they begin to float around.
"Check it out, Tommy. We're in space now!" They fly around the cargo hold as the ship flies past the moon and toward Mars.
The zero gravity allows the two to dance Swan Lake while lifting heavy weights. The rockets circled around Mars twice before heading back to Earth. As it re-enters the atmosphere, the dumbbell on Harvey's pinky weighs down and dislocates it.
"Hey, who turned the heavy back on?!" Tommy asks angrily.
"We must be landing." Harvey says, popping his pinky back in. The two prepare to exit the rocket and outside. Meanwhile Rachel gets to the telescopes to find any site of the rocket it space, or on Mars.
Back on Earth, Tommy and Harvey emerge from the rocket in space suits.
"Wow, it looks like it does back home." Tommy says as he sees the Sector V Treehouse. They then notice Bradley hanging around outside Nigel's front door. "Hey, Bradley! Come here, pal."
"No you idiot. This has to be a trick. The aliens have obviously looked into our minds." Harvey asserts. "They're projecting our own memories onto their environment."
"So you mean to they've taken what we thought we think and made us think we thought our thoughts? We've been thinking our thoughts we think we thought? I think?" Tommy asks, confusing the both of them.
"Um okay, but I'm not falling for it!" Harvey pulls out his net gun and shoots Bradley.
"You got him, Harv! Your sister's gonna love this."
Tommy says.
"Rachel? Oh man, I forgot about her. She's gonna be pissed at us for stealing her rocket. But she'll love us for catching real aliens. Come on, Tommy. The more the merrier!" Harvey grabs a crying Bradley and throws him in a cargo hold.
"Alien hunting!" Alien hunting!" Tommy shouts.
"Shut up, dude." Harvey whispers, after covering Tommy's mouth. "We can't let them know we're into them. Uh yeah, 'Alien Hunting', I saw that episode last night! Gee, Tommy, let's pay our old friend Nigel Uno a visit!" Harvey enters the treehouse with Tommy behind him. "Make sure your gun is pumped."
The two of them walk into Nigel Uno's bedroom and nervously approach his sleeping form.
"Ew, it's disgusting." Harvey says as he tip toes right next to him. "It's even uglier up close."
"Wait, what is that?" Tommy asks, spotting an ice pack under Nigel's head. Harvey grabs it and Tommy nearly throws up.
"Tommy, do you know what this is?" Harvey asks.
"Stinky?"
"No, it's an egg sac." Harvey foolishly asserts. "Let's look at the embryo." Timmy shines a flashlight under it and they see Harvey's hand shadow through the pack. "Twins." They say in unison.
Nigel then turns over and his hand lands on Tommy's face shield. "Pardon my French but, get this thing off me!" Harvey and Tommy scream as they grab Nigel's wrist and pull it off Tommy. Harvey then falls onto Nigel's feet and screams. Nigel wakes up to the two of them grabbing hold of him.
"Tommy and Harvey?! Let go of me!" Nigel demands as he gets his limbs out of their grasp. "And get out of my treehouse!"
"It's awake!" Tommy shouts.
"Let's capture the little phony!" Harvey shouts as he pulls out his net gun, scaring Nigel.
"AAH! Get away from me!" Nigel shouts as he avoids getting shot with a net.
"IT'S HARVIN TIME!" Harvey shouts as he chases after Nigel with Tommy right behind him.
Outside of the Treehouse, Captain Stickybeard is going past the treehouse in his ship when he sees the commotion.
"Huh?" He notices Harvey and Tommy carrying a bound up Nigel. "Ahoy there, Kids Next Door! Training to join me crew when ye become of age? Agagagagagagag." Tommy and Harvey both point their guns at Stickybeard. "Oh no please, don't shoot! Ok… you can shoot me, but don't take me candy." He pleads.
"We don't want your candy, One-Eyed Willy." Harvey says as he and Tommy both trap him in their nets. The pair then throw their hostages into the cargo hold of the ship with Bradley.
"Alright, now let's get the rest of the area." Harvey says as they begin to run amok all over Virginia. Tommy captures his grandmother in the old folks home. Harvey captures Chad in the middle school locker room. They both capture Mr. Boss and Fanny whilst they are having a Rainbow Monkey tea party.
The more people they capture, at this point almost everyone they know in a 10 mile radius, the more cramped the ship becomes.
"We may have to make a second trip, Harvey." A strained Tommy says as he shoves several people into the cargo hold.
"Just keep pushing, pal. We're almost done." Harvey reassures him.
All of the sudden, Rachel ascends from the sky with her mini rocket.
"Harvey! What is the meaning of this?!" She snaps. "I turn my back on you for five minutes and THIS happens! Look at yourselves, running around the state kidnapping everyone like they've fish to be sold in the market. You've turned my science experiment into a disaster! You both oughta be ashamed of your-" Before Rachel can finish, Tommy and Harvey shoot her with their nets and carry her to the ship.
"Nice try, Rachel."
"Yeah, or should we say, Miss Alien Pants?" Tommy says laughing, and hitting Rachel with a realization.
"Aliens? Is that what this is about?! This isn't Mars, we're still in Virgin-" The door slams before Rachel finishes.
"It just goes to show, you can't trust anyone." As Harvey says, both he and Tommy look at each other suspiciously. They then begin pumping their guns. "So, you were an alien the whole time! And you didn't even tell me!"
"I didn't even know!" Tommy says defensively.
"Oh yeah? Well I've got you now."
"Oh it's not you that's me, it's" Tommy then shoots himself into a net. "ME that's got me."
Harvey gets back into the pilot seat and flies the rocket back to Mars. "Boy I can't wait to see the look on Rachel's face."
As he lands on Mars and the ship crashes down as it is almost out of fuel and has taken a lot of damage. "Rachel, I'm back!"
He then looks out the window to see the barren red surface. "Wow, Virginia sure looks different." It then hits him that he is on the surface of Mars as he looks up at the sky. "Oh, shit."
"Harvey! We aliens would like a word with you!"
