:23:01
drifting in clouds across a distant galaxy
:23:04
had been touched by unknown rays
from a dying sun,

:23:08
and had hatched into a colossal monster
:23:10
- who fed off X-rays...
- As mum's not getting up,

:23:12
we're going to have
your party in her room.

:23:14
What?
:23:14
I said
:23:16
that as mum's not getting up,
we're going to have your party in her room.

:23:21
So why don't you do her a favour
and clean yourself up?

:23:25
If people really liked me,
they'd take me as I am.

:23:33
If.
:23:35
This monster
was now terrorizing

:23:37
regular space traffic
within the Solar System.

:23:40
'Your task is not only
to track down and destroy this beast,

:23:43
but also to dispose
of its gigantic corpse.

:23:46
To allow it to drift on
forever through space

:23:48
would create
not only a collision hazard,

:23:50
but who knows what other
monster's mutation

:23:53
might emerge
from its putrefying carcass.

# Happy birthday to you...
:24:00
# Happy birthday to you...
:24:03
# Happy birthday dear Jack,
:24:06
# Happy birthday to you. #
:24:11
You do look nice, son.
:24:13
Come and sit here...
:24:16
Oh, I forgot to give you this.
:24:18
Really?
:24:20
Orange juice?
:24:22
- No thanks.
- Oh, come on, I made it myself.

:24:25
It took ages.
I used real oranges.

:24:28
- Alright then.
- All oranges are real, aren't they, mum?

:24:32
Yes.
:24:35
What I meant was
it's not orange squash.

:24:38
But you said real oranges
and I know for all oranges to be real...

:24:42
Yes yes, we all heard you.
It wasn't that funny.

:24:45
Well, you could have at least laughed.
:24:49
I thought it was incredibly funny.
:24:51
See?
:24:53
Why don't you blow out the candle, Jack?
:24:58
Don't forget to make a wish!
