Summary

Newspaper reporter Clint Mullet believes Mindy is his ticket to fame because he thinks she can supply him with proof that aliens exist on Earth. Clint sneaks into Mindy's room searching for clues, runs into Mork and reveals the publication's offer of $25,000 for proof that aliens walk the Earth. After hearing Mindy and her dad discussing how they could use the money for college and to repair the plumbing, Mork decides to sacrifice his identity to repay Mindy.
