...Elliot sent a robotic E.T. into the ship. Blew the thing up 24 minutes into orbit of the Earth. The real E.T. was captured by Elliot, and was sold to KFC for a good sum of cash. E.T. then escaped from there, but got some 3rd degree burns on his face. He now lives in the woods, and emerges with the cry "Home, home."

Edit: Yes, late night retardation story.
