Plot synopsis
Prologue
Sportacus wakes up and jumps out of bed. He then puts on a pair of roller skates and grabs a hockey stick, which he uses to neaten the duvet and hit the pillow back in place. He concludes “now that’s how you make a bed!”
Main episode
Stephanie, Stingy and Pixel have set up the LazyTown Sky Watcher’s Club, and are building a spaceship with the hopes of going to space and contacting aliens. The noise of them working irritates Robbie Rotten, who is attempting to nap. As Pixel is setting up the satellite system, Ziggy enters, eager to meet an alien, and accidentally crashes into the equipment. Pixel tells him that his lab is for “big kids only” and that he shouldn’t get involved. Ziggy then goes to help Stingy install a satellite dish on the Treehouse, but knocks over the ladder, crushing Stephanie and himself, and leaving Stingy about to fall off the edge of the Treehouse. Robbie is initially entertained by Stingy’s cries for help, until he realises that they will disrupt his nap further. Sportacus enters and saves the children, before leaving them to continue with their space project. Ziggy is still adamant on joining the club, but Stephanie and Stingy refuse, claiming he’s too small to pilot the spaceship and might crash it. When Ziggy leaves, Stephanie feels bad, but Stingy suggests that if Ziggy were to actually encounter an alien, he might have a panic attack and not talk for a week. Robbie overhears this exchange, and disguises himself as an alien in order to scare the children into being quiet.
Ziggy tries to start his own club based on cakes and sweets, but this only makes him feel lonelier and smaller. Meanwhile, Stephanie and Stingy sing about the joys of going to space (Galaxy). The song delays the completion of the ship, leaving it only almost done, to the annoyance of Pixel. As Ziggy laments and says that he’d trade all his sweets for a friend, Robbie, in disguise as Zobby, enters. Ziggy believes that he is an actual space alien, and instead of being scared by him, he believes he is his new friend. He leaves to offer him his favourite sweet as a token of friendship, and tells Stephanie and Stingy about what just happened. They agree that if he knows a real life alien, he can join the club.
