Squink could be found at the [[Milk Toast Malt Shop]] on [[Asteroid 43KX]]. When Terry and his friend [[Robota]] entered the establishment, they asked a bartender about Squink's whereabouts, and he directed them to the ice cream freak at the other end of the bar. There they found Squink demanding another banana split; when the former radioman became violent after being refused service, the [[Milk Toast Malt Shop#Boss bartender|boss bartender]] set his bouncers [[Morthrott and Grmbil]] on him.

Terry and Robota attempted to stop Morthrott and Grmbil from throwing them to the [[Crocogater]]s, and in turn they were rescued by [[Omnus]], a violent alien to whom they had shown mercy earlier. With the bouncers out for the count, Terry, Robota, and Omnus decided to get out while the going was good. Since Squink was unconscious, Robota had to carry him on their return to [[Planet Terry's ship|the ship]].

While Squink recuperated, Terry told his two fellows that, though he hadn't yet found his parents, he ''had'' found a family. Unknown to them all, Squink had already regained consciousness and was reaching for a blaster, darkly vowing that no-one must learn the secret of the ''Space Warp''. {{storylink|Malt Shop Menace}}
 
He pulled the blaster on Terry, and restated that no-one must learn the secret of the ''Space Warp'', telling Terry that his father blamed him for what happened to it. Refusing to answer any of Terry's questions, Squink grabbed a jet pack and made to abandon ship. Robota warned him of an incoming astro tornado, but Squink wasn't going to fall for the old astro tornado due-any-moment trick, and he took off. If he ''was'' caught in the astro tornado, the chances of his survival were slim. {{storylink|The Saga of Princess Ugly}}
