Line 29:
Terry and Robota come to the Milk Toast Malt Shop, and its warning sign of "No sissies allowed" fails to prepare them for the myriad tough, muscular, and mean alien thugs patronising the dive bar. They approach the bar and order their chocolate malts (Robota's with a shot of oil), and tell the bartender they're looking for a man named Squink. The bartender is quite familiar with the "ice cream freak", pointing him out at the other end of the bar.
Down there, the [[Milk Toast Malt Shop#Boss bartender|boss bartender]] is refusing to serve Squink another banana split, as he's over the limit. Squink gets aggressive, and he throws his sundae dish at the bartender; thus turns out to be the last straw for the boss, who calls for his bouncers, [[Morthrott and Grmbil]], to toss the troublemaker into the moat with the Crocogaters. Terry protests, and the boss turns his goons on him and Robota, too. Though they put up a fight, Terry is soon grabbed, and Robota captured by one of the bouncers' wrist-mounted electromagnet.
Just as it seems they're about to take a dip in the moat, Omnus arrives and demands they let Terry and Robota go. He makes short work of Morthrott and Grmbil, repaying the debt he owed them. Together, the three of them flee back over the log bridge, with Robota carrying the unconscious form of Squink. Terry ditches their armed pursuers by kicking the log loose, stranding the thugs on the Malt Shop's island. As they approach [[Planet Terry's ship|Terry's ship]], Robota asks if he can join them, as he's not going to be welcome on Asteroid 43KX for much longer – "And besides... you start darn good fights!"
