Luz was reading a book, but Arturo makes her upset.

Arturo said "Hey Luz wanna play" as he pulled out bread "I got....."

Luz said "I'm busy go play on traffic"

Arturo walk away, but he got an idea.

In the baby room, The creepy twin girls were playing with Maribriela.

"Hey whatcha doing!"

Ofelia and Sofia said "Not now we're busy"

Arturo once again left, depressed. The moment he stepped outside, however, the depression was replaced with an idea. He knew somebody who wouldn't be busy at this hour!

Peter was laying on his couch, eating from a bowl of popcorn. His T.V. was blaring with the sounds of rapid trotting and gunshots. Western movies were a favorite of his.

Silently, Arturo began hovering behind the closed window. "Hey Pettttterrrr," he calls out to the adult, hoping that he'll answer. Instead, however, Peter just lowered the shade on the window, not even saying anything or looking away from his T.V.

Rejected once again, Arturo flew back down to earth and started walking around aimlessly, a look of sadness upon his face.

"Why won't anybody spend time with me...?" he asks himself. He looks up, and spots a single star, brighter than all the others surrounding it. Recalling the old stories about wishing stars, he speaks a simple request.

"I wish I had somebody to play with right now."

Of all the things that could've happened, near the bottom of Arturo's mental list was the fact that the star would suddenly rush to the ground, causing a large impact that threw Arturo. When he looked back up in the direction of the crash site, he saw an ominous green glow just outside of Mexico.

Crawling through some bushes, Arturo found herself at the edge of the crater, where a large, glowing, green, gooey, brain-shaped rock was laying motionless. As he caught sight of it, a musical voice suddenly projected itself from the rock.

Well, hello there, little boy,
don't be shy,

A green tentacle came from the glowing rock and pushed Arturo into itself, causing him to get some green slime on his hands. The voice continued.

Step right up, I'm a reasonable guy,

Along with another tentacle, a green eye popped up on the front of the rock. Arturo gave it a nervous smile.

Don't be frightened by the look in my eye,
I'm just your average evil meteor from outta the sky.

A tentacle suddenly grabbed Arturo's head, suction coming from it. The tentacle then pokes around his head until it gets to one of his ears, where it tries to seemingly pull something out. It actually felt somewhat ticklish, so Arturo couldn't help but let out a chuckle as he protested. "He- Hey, whatcha trying to do? Suck my brains out?"

The meteor looked closely into his ear for a second, before pulling back and flipping the boy. When he got back, the rock started talking again.

Well I'm just shy, and scared in this place,
just a fish outta water from outer space,
you can see that the trip has left me tired and drained, so why don't you be a pal...
...and bring me some BRAAAIINS!

"Okay!"

The meteor lifted Arturo out of the crater. Once he was put down, he turned and said to his new found friend, "Don't worry, new buddy! I'll get you all sorts of brains!"

He went into the kitchen. He looked for a bit, before finding a box labeled "Bran."

Bringing the box back to the meteor, it grabbed it and looked at the label, before giving a look that questioned the intellect of this human. Throwing the box away, he reached into a nearby house and pulled out a book. Flipping it to a certain page, he then showed it to Arturo. The book was on a page showing an x-ray of a human's head, and a tentacle pointed to the brain. Arturo understood quickly. "Okay! Where do I find these so-called 'brains'?"
