Go, Dad! See? What'd I tell you? I may be losing my hair, but the magic's still there.
Hmm? Who's with you in this old picture? - That's my pal Marty.
- You've never told me about him.
Yeah, he's just an old amigo from way back when.
- He's dead to me.
- Who was he? He was my manager back when I first met your mom.
I've told you that whole story, haven't I? Not the version with Marty.
Geesh.
Then it's story time.
Sit back.
Get comfy.
- I didn't mean that comfy.
- Story for Steven! Okay, okay.
This is the tale of how your father met your mother.
Now including Marty.
Some say I have no direction that I'm a light-speed distraction but that's a knee-jerk reaction still this is the final frontier everything is so clear to my destiny I steer this life in the stars is all I've ever known stars and stardust and infinite space is my only home but the moment that I hit the stage thousands of voices are calling my name and I know in my heart it's been worth it all of the while and as my albums fly off of the shelves handing out autographed pics of myself this life I chose isn't easy but sure is one heck of a ride at the moment that I hit the stage I hear the universe calling my name and I know deep down in my heart I have nothing to fear and as the solar wind blows through my hair knowing I have so much more left to share a wandering spirit who's tearing its way through the cold atmosphere I fly like a comet soar like a comet crash like a comet I'm just a comet Thanks for coming, everybody.
I'm Mr.
Universe.
If you liked what you just heard, go check out our merch table.
My manager, Marty, can hook you up with CDs and T-shirts.
Oh, wait.
He's not there.
I guess I'm going over there now.
- "Space train to the cosmos.
" - Yeah! One-way ticket and I'm ready to ri-i-de Oh.
But how will you get back? - Back? - Back to Earth? - I'm never coming back.
- Ugh, that's awful! - This is your home.
- Uh You want that? You can have it! - Hmm? - Oh, and it comes with a free T-shirt! You'll probably need a bigger one.
I've got an extra extra-large in my van.
Stay right there! Starchild! Meet Vidalia.
Nice van.
Really living the high life.
- So, how was the show? - It was great! One person showed up! Oh! I have to give her this free T shirt.
Greg! You can't give stuff away for free! What about my 75%? Are you worth nothing? - No.
- That's right! I'm gonna make us both rich! And as far as these saltwater saps know, we already are! So let's live it up before we hit the road, all right? Next stop Empire City! You know I'll catch up with you.
- Maybe she's over there? - Whooo? Oh, just some giant mysterious lady with enormous pink hair.
You haven't seen anyone - like that around, have you? - Sure have, pal.
- Wh-Where? - Well, uh if I told you any more, I'd have to kill you!! Hoo hoo hoo! Hey! Wait! Hold on a sec! Whoa! Ugh.
This long-haired human was talking to me over by the fence.
- It spoke to you? - He was asking about Rose.
Look! There he is! - Yo.
- Amethyst! Wait! It's you! I've never seen this one around here before.
- Oh, I really like your hair.
- Amethyst, leave him be! You don't know where he's been! I'm very sorry about this, uh, you? - Whoa! - Oh, Amethyst.
- You're with a human.
- He followed me over the fence.
What should we do? - State your purpose.
- Uh, I was kind of looking for the mysterious pink lady, kind of really tall, - lots of big, curly hair.
- See? - He's talking about Ro - I don't know how - to make him go away.
- I'll just throw him - back over the fence.
- Huh? Oh! Who-o-a! Excellent idea.
Humans should stay on the other side of the fence like the sign says.
- Please! No throwing! - Wait! - Mr.
Universe? - It's you.
Whoa.
Ow! Are you all right? - You know this human?! - He was playing a concert on the beach, and I couldn't help myself.
No one could ignore the Universe.
Oh! I brought you this! It's the free T-shirt that - came with your free CD! - Why, thank you! His gimmick is space! Hey, play something, music man! - Better make it good.
- Aw, man.
I'm working on this awesome new set.
It's gonna kill at my next show.
"Next show"? Aw, geez.
What time is it? - Night time? - Yeah, Marty's probably looking for me.
We're supposed to hit the road.
It's a big show in a big city, and I didn't drop out of - community college for nothing! - What? Well, you better hurry.
You don't want to miss your - space train to the cosmos.
- Okay! I'll see you later! Uh, I hope the stars will align - for us to meet again! - I'm sure they will! Bye, music man! I can sing.
What? Man, Greg, you really missed out.
Vidalia's friends were wild and crazy.
- Glad that town wasn't a total waste.
- I met some wild ladies, too.
They change shape and appear out of beams of light.
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah.
Save the poetry for Empire City, starchild.
We've got a big day ahead of us tomorrow.
I'm serious, Marty.
- Something's going on back there.
- Are you nuts? Just wait till you see what's ahead of us.
It's fame! Hey, what's jammed in your tape deck? You been putting pennies in here, you weirdo? Play something for me, Starchild.
Do you believe in destiny? close your eyes and leave the rest to me Snore! You're gonna put people to sleep with that! Where's this schlock coming from? I-I just can't stop thinking about that woman at the show.
Oh, here we go.
How big was she? - 8 feet tall massive hair.
- See, Greg, this is your problem.
You want one huge woman when you can have - multiple smaller ones.
- Ugh.
- Marty, women are people.
- Just follow my lead.
I'm gonna get you everything you want.
- What if I want to go back? - What?! What if I want to go back and be with her?! No one cares about your feelings, Greg! They're making you lose sight of what's really important! Watch the road! Why do you always decide what's important? Because I'm your manager, and you're just some spaced-out kid! I'm taking you to the city, and you're gonna play, and you're gonna like it.
Maybe you'll even make me some money for once.
Get out of my van.
- Sit down, Greg.
- I said, get out of my van! Ooh! What are you doing?! You're making a huge mistake! Hey! Are you in there? I can play for you now! I even revamped my awesome set! This one's for you, mystery woman! Do you believe in destiny? close your eyes and leave the rest to me do you believe in fantasy? I have to when it's right in front of me, oh what are you doing here? in the real world what are you doing here? so close I could touch you what are you doing here? and what are you doing to me-e-e? Oh! You're wearing the shirt.
- Please go away.
- I-I'm sorry.
Did I? You're awfully cute.
And I really want to play with you.
But your life is short, and you have dreams.
I won't let you give up - on everything you want.
- Well, that's gonna be a problem.
- Huh? - You're everything I want! - What are you smiling about? - You loved her! Come here, you! - Rah! - Oh, man.
- Marty was the worst! - Oh, yeah.
He was awful! But I guess I owe him a lot.
- He made it easy for me to stay.
- I'm glad you did.
Yeah, me too.
Hmm? Who's with you in this old picture? - That's my pal Marty.
