In an average sized college town, where pranks from the students are not unusual, aman who is all blue isn’t given much thought. It’s actually a blue robot, and he’s from the 7th order, from the planet Xamxar, and he’s her to take over the world.
We learn that his spaceship has crashed, and he wants to force humans to build him a new one. That, or he’ll kill them all like the robots did back on his home planet. Oh, is that all?
He has picked out a college professor to be his representative to the world, and with his ability to read minds and vaporize whatever he shoots with his laser pistol, it doesn’t take long for the world to take him seriously. Is it possible to stop this cool, calculating critter? Physical force is no match for him. Strategies are fended off before they can be formed. Can’t any thing be done to trick the invader, and outsmart him?
Listen in and learn how they did it in the 1950’s. I wonder if that trick would work onfreeing kids from being enslaved to those little computers that plug their ears with buds, and occupy their minds with flashing games? Hmm… Nah, I doubt it.
