==Synopsis==
[[Planet Terry]] and friends are under attack by a [[Devourer]], a threat the boy recognises from video games! Monstrous creatures like these are always hungry, and as it approaches them, it gobbles up rocks... and starts to close in on an [[Chippa|innocent alien]]! [[Robota]] zaps the Devourer with her robot ray beam, but is shocked when it eats the beam as well.
The Devourer announces its intent to eat Terry, but [[Omnus]] steps in the way and takes it on hand-to-hand, knocking it with so much force that it is launched over the horizon. The squirrelly aliens chitter with excitement, and Terry guesses they must be expressing gratitude. He tries to ask them if they've seen any people who look like him, even showing them the signed frame of [[Planet Terry's parents|his parents]]... before realising the frame has no picture in.
Nonetheless, the aliens consult each other in their own language, and one of them leads the trio over a ridge. Terry gasps, and Robota confirms what they're seeing: a man and a woman who look just like him. The boy dashes to the two figures, reunited with his parents at last!

"Your ''teeth'' look kind of ''dingy!'' Don't you see your dentist twice a year? Since you like to ''eat'' so much... I'm ''sure'' you'll enjoy my blue plate special... a ''knuckle sandwich'' to ''go!''"

Line 56 ⟶ 64:
===Artwork and technical errors===
*Not an error, but the increasingly Americanised spellings of the modern internet may cause current-day readers to interpret "Ahhh!" (as it was spelled at the time) not as the heart-warming onomatopoeia now more commonly represented as "Awww!" but instead as, y'know, [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KRoHyHi8hfo screaming].
