Plot summary
News producer Tim O'Hara is fired after a live broadcast goes wrong for Brace Channing, the daughter of his boss. Driving that night, he sees a small Martian spacecraft crash, and by the time he returns with Brace the ship has shrunk to the size of a toy. He takes it home; the craft's lone occupant follows to get it back, then disguises himself to look like Tim. The Martian, calling himself Uncle Martin, explains that his electron accelerator is broken and asks for Tim's help finding a replacement. While Tim films Martin with hidden cameras, hoping to win his job back, agents tracking alien life begin watching the pair.
