narrative (commentary): [NIGHT VISION GOGGLES] [ON] // scene: A moongeek is sweeping moon dust, it's his job...it's what he does. // caption: [Moongeek] "Oh, there... I'm workin'. That's what I'm doin'. Cuz that's what I do. Yup, Yup. I'm workin'... It's my job, it's what I do... my job... Workin'. Bye, now. Bye." // narrative (commentary): On the dark side of the moon there lives a creature, or should I say, a society of creatures. Who are really no more creatures, than we humans are creatures... Creatures of God, or creatures of habit. Yet they are different from us...you and me...
narrative (commentary): So... as we spin along in our little universe, there are some things that just "are"... // scene: Our solar system, the sun and planets.
narrative (commentary): Like the Alien Fliers and the Greys, Cats and Dogs, Birds and Bees... Things "are" what they "are." // A bird is a bird, and a bee is a bee. // And a Moongeek... well, a Moongeek is just a geek...a geek. // scene: Drawing of a cat, dog bird, and some bees.

We're not alone..." // narrative (commentary): Continued...
