Hello podcast listeners, Mars Patel is a sentimental young man. He's been searching for

his missing classmate Aurora Gershowitz across two seasons and two planets. And what

is he found? Not that Winsome Girl, head buried in a sketchbook. Look at Aurora now,

queen of the ingrates, calling herself Fang, leading a dangerous gang of degenerates

on the wrong side of Mars. In a trailer park, full of filched supplies, hiding from me,

biting the very hand that feeds her. If someone prefers to seek destruction over progress,

chaos over hope, then something needs to be done about that person.

And if Mars Patel makes that choice, well then, let's hope it doesn't come to that.

Oh, right, all right, stop pushing. Leave him to me.

Mars, you can take your helmet off now. It's pressurized inside the dome. Here, let me help you.

Aurora, are you okay? Do I look okay?

Yeah, you look great. Wait a minute. What's happening here? I thought you were in trouble.

Oh, that's sweet. Mars, this is a lot to take in, but you have to believe me. I'm really happy to see you.

Happy I think you can imagine, really? Come here. Where am I?

Inside the Martian care. I'm with the enemy. We're not the enemy. Mars is the enemy.

I'm the enemy? I met the planet. Do you know how long I've been searching for you?

I miss you, Mars. I miss everybody, JP, Toothpick Jonas, and Caddy.

But mostly you, Mars. How did you become the leader of the Shut Up Mars? I'm going to hug you now.

My people are staring. I'm going to stop hugging you now.

Okay. Did you get my messages?

You mean all of that? Hey, Aurora, and Mars out stuff?

Well, yeah, I got all of them. You did?
