When divorced Alabama salvage yard owner Ed Puck's ex-wife's Pinto catches fire outside the Piggly Wiggly, he thinks his night can't get worse. Then a battered starship crashes in a nearby soybean field, piloted by Zylar—a melancholy blue alien with a broken ship, no money, and the entire Xenophorian Armada on his tail. What follows is a hilarious, heartwarming adventure through pawn shops, firefights, and the stubborn kindness of small-town America, proving that friendship—and a really good tow truck—can cross any frontier.
