The Housing Council
Five years ago, a woman and her husband are walking down the corridor of a lab. She tells him that she chose last time and that she wants to go where he wants to go. "How about Antonio's?" he suggests and she asks if he really wants to do pasta. She asks where she would want to eat if she were him. They agree on tacos, her telling him to have fun in the lab. He enters Lab 205 and she receives a summon over the intercom telling her to come to Lab 209. However, almost immediately after she sets off, there is a massive explosion behind her. An alarm starts blaring. She runs over to the door of 205, trying to open it and then pleading for somebody to open it. Her husband's hands press against the window. He is surrounded by smoke and shouts for help. Lines have formed on his face, as though he is rapidly being irradiated. "Oh my God, Gary!" pleads the woman. Inside Harry Vanderspeigle's cabin in the present day, Asta tells Harry that "they" can't just make him leave Earth, that they will fight the summons. He tells her that she doesn't understand, that the Galactic Federation has referred this to the Housing Council and that it is over. She tells him that he can't just give up, that they need him and she doesn't care give a shit about the Housing Council. Harry clamps his hand over his mouth, telling her that she cannot talk that way about the Housing Council. D'arcy picks up the papers. He asks what she's doing and she tells him that she's putting them where all eviction notices go - in the fire. He laughs, telling her that they will not burn, that they aren't paper, but rather Moldar skin. A portal appears and Harry tells them not to be distracted by the processor's pretty face, that pubescent aliens have holograms of Blue Avians above their beds. The processor appears. "You are a bird," comments Asta and the woman groans and curses the portal, saying that she's supposed to appear as the life forms of the destination and now she's breaking galactic law. Harry tells her that she doesn't need to, that she's perfect as she is. She complains that the portal has been touchy since some idiot from probate tried to sneak fruit through it. She tells Harry to just give him the signed papers so the Housing Council will come and collect him for eviction. "You smell woodsy, I will sign them," agrees Harry, but Asta starts to plead with her, calling her "Mrs. Bird." The woman tells her not to, that her Earth name is Heather. "Rhymes with feather," D'arcy points out and Heather agrees, saying that she wished someone had told her when she picked it. Asta tells Heather that Harry is there to save the planet, suggesting she look the other way. She tells Asta she gets paid by the hour. As D'arcy distracts Heather by telling her the papers are on the floor, she tosses a banana through the portal, causing it to short out. Heather says that it sucks, that she now has to call the repair guy and it'll take forever. She complains about being stuck, saying that she needs to use the bathroom to change. D'arcy comments that she just saved the world with a banana and she and Asta high-five. Heather returns from the bathroom, now in human form, asking if any of them can recommend a hotel.
A bad boy
At the Hawthorne family home, Kate Hawthorne is sitting at the dining room table with a sketchbook. Ben comments that she's up early and she tells him she still can't sleep, that she was up half the night terrified and didn't know why. She tells him that she was thinking he's often stressed, but not when he's making candles because he has a creative outlet. She continues that she hasn't picked up her sketchbook in a while and thought that she would do a children's book. He tells her that as a kid he always wanted a book with a baby elephant and a monkey. She tells him this isn't that and when he asks to see, says that she'd rather wait until it's finished. "Say no more," he tells her, starting to walk away, but then saying that if there is a baby elephant, it should have a sailor's cap. Sheriff Mike and Deputy Liv are in the woods. Mike asks Liv why a respected military chemist would end up living there like some kind of witch. Liv tells him that she lost it after seeing her husband die in a lab accident. Mike asks if they could be facing a supervillain. She tells him that she wasn't and he tells her that he can't while he's trying to figure out what happened to his best deputy. He asks her to tell him again what she saw when she was going by Joseph's house and she tells him she's going to come back to the "best deputy" comment. She tells him it was empty, that he's gone. Mike agrees that it's suspicious and she says what's even more suspicious is right when they were looking for a deputy, the perfect candidate happened to show up. Mike tells her that it's just how it works for handsome people, like himself. At Joe's Diner, D'arcy suggests that they fake Harry's death, that you can't get evicted if you're dead. Harry says that he has no choice but to leave Earth, that they've been brainstorming all morning with nothing. Kayla arrives at their table, asking Asta if she'll be at Drew's party tomorrow. Asta tells her she will. Harry tries to take the pie she's holding, but she tells him it's for her paralegal. This gives D'arcy an idea, and she asks Kayla what she would do if her friend was getting evicted. "My first piece of legal advice would be to not co-sign a lease with this one," replies Kayla, thinking that D'arcy is talking about herself. She continues that for her other friend, she would just wait it out or countersue. So Harry goes to Heather, telling her that he is countersuing. She asks if he even realizes how much paperwork that is. They bond a bit over their love of Moldar-skin pants and she asks what's going on, that nobody has taken on the Housing Council before. She asks if he's some kind of bad boy. He nods, agreeing that he is. He takes a pencil and snaps it, telling her that he isn't even a real doctor. "That is bad," she continues, and he continues that he killed a man, albeit one that was evil. He says it's nice to talk to another alien, suggesting he could show her around town. She gets up, saying that she's just going to head back to the hotel, that her back has been killing her. He tells her it's the human bed and suggests taking her to the exam room so that he can look at her back. At the Patience Health Clinic, Harry tells Asta to make Heather more comfortable, whispering to her to get a blanket and spit on it. Disgusted, she tells him she will get her a blanket, but that she's not doing that. He tells her he's sorry for primitive Earth medicine. He holds a stethoscope to heart, saying that she's dying. They laugh at this. He has her remove her jacket. He touches her back and collapses to the ground. She tells him it's probably a mite, pronouncing the word in his language. He is shocked but delighted to discover that she speaks his language. She tells him it's one of the most beautiful languages in the universe and he thinks that she is perfect and that he would like to smell her. Asta walks in on Harry as he is doing this, asking to talk to him to a minute alone. He spits on the blanket Asta brought and exits with Asta. She asks just what the hell he was doing and he tells her that his knees are weak and his palms are sweating. He says he's seen this in human movies: love. "You just met her," Asta points out, but he tells her he cannot help it. He says it's like how he feels love for her, but different, not just in his head or heart, but in his pants. "Oh," moans Asta. "Harry, you coming back?" asks Heather and Harry collapses again.
The key
Sheriff Mike and Deputy Liv arrive at a cabin in the woods. Mike knocks on the door. Dr. Beasley opens a shutter and Liv addresses her by name. She asks who they are and Mike tells her they want to talk to her about the Alien Tracker, Peter Bach. She replies that Peter Bach is dead and closes the shutter. Liv tells her that they know that and that they believe he was murdered. She opens the shutter again. At the clinic, Asta tells Harry that she knows someone's first crush is everything, but that they're trying to save the world. She tells him he can't be distracted by a relationship. He starts writing poetry. "Oh, boy," comments Asta, as Harry recites "I'd like to touch you where the eggs pop out." She leaves. In the cabin, Liv tells Dr. Beasley that they're there because they found her fingerprints in Peter's van. She asks where the van is and Mike asks why it's important. She replies that he wouldn't believe her and that if he does, they'll get to him and tell him that she's crazy. She says that she knows what happened to her husband, that it wasn't a gas leak and it wasn't made by humans. Seeing what she believes to be a skeptical reaction from Mike and Liv, she asks if they think she doesn't know that look. She tells them they need to leave. Liv, however, tells her that she saw a UFO when she was a kid and everyone said she made it up for attention. She tells her that Peter was the only person who ever believed her. She tells her she needs to find out what happened, that Peter trusted her. She asks if they have the key. Mike shows her the key to the van, but she just says that if Peter trusted her, he would have given her the key. She tells them to get out. At Joe's Diner, Asta finds Jay hunched over a laptop. "Still filling out your college application?" she asks her and Jay tells her that the essays are stupid. She says that she doesn't want to go, but her mother thinks college will give her options. Asta agrees that options are good, that she didn't have many and thus lived with her dad until her 30s. "And that's why I'm still single," comments Dan. The essay is about how Jay's family history shaped her life and Jay points out that she's adopted and so she doesn't know her family because Asta doesn't know her family. She grumbles that apparently only people with enormous family trees can get into college. Hearing this, Dan tells her that she's a part of their family. When she points out that she's not a blood relative of Dan's, Dan asks Asta if she's taken her to the rez yet. She tells him she hasn't yet and he tells Jay that she's coming to whole family. Asta says that she wanted a family tree and got a whole forest. In his cabin, Harry makes a model of the Yellowstone Caldera, thinking to himself that it will help him figure out the Greys' plan. He notes that he has to present his findings to General McCallister tomorrow and still doesn't know why they want to blow up the super volcano. He thinks that if he can figure it out, it will impress Heather, but then messes up and thinks that just thinking about Heather is messing him up. He tries calling her, but is unable to even get a sentence out. He takes her call back, putting on a deep voice and claiming that she called him. She says she was going to call him anyway, that she found a hole on her stomach in human form and doesn't know when it's for. He tells her it's gross, that humans grow babies inside their babies. "And then they come out of that bump?" she asks. "No," he tells her, saying that the reality is not much better. She tells him that she's going to go back to exploring her body and he faints.
