A spaceship lands in the arbor. Two Martians ( a pink one, voiced by Martin P. Robinson, and an orange one) emerge and spot something in the distance. | ||
Inside the Fix-It Shop, Maria prepares a list on her computer. She's about to print it, when she has to go to the back room to check on something. The Martians appear and observe the device, concluding it's a computer. They press a few keys, activating the printer. As they go off and hide, Big Bird enters. Maria thinks he started the printer, but he insists he didn't. She lets him watch over the store while she returns to the back, asking him to not touch anything. He feels insulted with her lack of trust and goes back to talk with her. | ||
The Martians reappear and observe the phone, but knock over the clock in the process. Maria and Big Bird both exit the back and find the clock on the ground, shattered. Maria is very upset and blames Big Bird. She asks him to leave and the Martians see that they've made a mistake. | ||
