"Molly, why is there nothing to do around here?" Liam whined, slouching in his office chair. Her eyes glued to the live soccer game she was watching on the TV, Molly shrugged her shoulders and replied, "Because we got the worst jobs in the world. There's no such thing as aliens so they hired people to basically do nothing all day long."

"Then how come we get paid so much to sit around and do nothing all day?" Liam asked. Never once looking back at him, Molly shrugged her shoulders once again. Sighing heavily, Liam slouched even farther in his seat. He was bored out of his mind. There was literally nothing to do around here! Grabbing a can of soda, he spun his chair around and looked at his computer screen.

There was a little red light in the corner of the screen blinking on and off.

"What in the world..." Liam mumbled, confused. Sitting up in his chair, he set his soda down. Grabbing his mouse, he hovered the tiny pixelated arrow over the blinking red light on his screen and clicked on it. A tab opened up, revealing a radar system of the area surrounding the planet Earth. A small red dot was visible on the screen, coming closer. This could only mean one thing.

Something had entered the atmosphere.

"Oh my god we got one!" Liam shouted. Scrambling around the cluttered office, he grabbed the phone and started dialing. Getting up, Molly headed over to the computer. "Dear lord have mercy on us all..." she whispered when she saw what the radar was picking up. In the meantime, Liam had someone answer the phone on the other line. His whole body shaking, he cried, "Code TSLOP! I repeat, code TSLOP!"
