is acting in it [4] Josh wears a costume made out of tin foil, and he paints silver makeup on his face and hands. [5] In the first scene, Josh is working
in a space observatory. [6] His experiment starts exploding when an ambassador from Earth arrives. [7] The ambassador was human, and he
exhales some air at Josh. [8] Josh is supposed to be from another planet that lacks oxygen, so the ambassador's breath contaminates everything
and causes the explosion. [9] Then my brother shows some subtitles that say, "Security Breacht" and the screen goes blank.
