[Willie goes to kitchen to find ALF wearing toy lips to his mouth]
What do you think?
[takes off ALF's lip toy off his mouth] I'll get right to the point. You told Brian to add those 2 planets to his model, didn't you?
No, I didn't. He did it on his own.
Didn't you?
Well, I admit I was indirectly involved.
[angrily] It was wrong of you to be involved at all!
But I took care of it. I called his teacher and set her straight.
So I heard now, that the principal is here and it's all because of your ridiculous stories of yours!
Ridiculous? You're gonna feel a little silly when I tell you this but I called the Mount Palomar Observatory today and they have no knowledge of the planet, Alvin.
How surprising.
They do, however, know of Dave, only they call him Chiron.
Object Kowal.
Willie? Willie, snap out of it.
No, ALF, ALF. In the late 70s, an object was spotted in space, originally called "Object Kowal." It was later named "Chiron." And astronomers thought that could be a 10th planet just somewhere just beyond Pluto.
Somewhere? I'll show you exactly where.
What's this? [opens up ALF's map] Rand McNally, Guide to the Stars.
I keep it in my glove compartment.
This, this is incredible. You have a guide to the galaxy.
Well, it's 3 years old. A few of the stars have exploded. Now, let's see, Dave. Dave, G6.
Mileage between cities, Melmac, San Francisco.
Oh, here it is. Dave. Right here.
Dave. And there's Alvin. What's that little one?
Alvin Heights.
You weren't making this up. I owe you an apology.
I'm waiting.
So is Mrs. Lyman. [opens the kitchen window] Oh, say, could I get you anything?
No, I'm fine.
Oh, wax lips.
I have 2 questions for you.
Yeah?
First, can I have my lips back? Thanks. And second, you gonna tell her the truth about the planets?
I don't think I can.
Why not? Show her the map.
Oh, good idea. And when she asks us where we got it, then where will we be?
Alright, alright, so you can't show her the map. But just because you don't have any proof, that ends it? I mean, what's with this planet? Here's a chance to open people's minds. Where are the freethinkers? The dreamers?
I don't know, but apparently, not in Brian's school. I'm afraid I'm just gonna have to go out there and tell her this has all been a big mistake.
In other words, you're gonna lie.
[Willie leaves the kitchen]
