All Aboard!

George is on the dole when a new job falls into his lap: Station Chief! The family is overjoyed! However, the station is in outer-space, far from Earth! What will they encounter all the way out there? Each one projects their worse fears and highest hopes. Enthusiasm wins out in the end. The Martins: wife, children, animals and even Gran take off for this new El Dorado. However, it turns out to be a suburban zone no bigger than a football field! Very quickly they are besieged with surprise after surprise. For example, there are the neighbors: the Schuman's, alive and well! For the first time, Benjamin gets the chance to wreak revenge on Bobby who is captured by aliens. It is also in this episode that we meet Guy, dumped by Krach Industries as an extra gift! Never a quiet moment on this station, now is there?

Chosen by Krach Industries as director of their new subdevelopment, George Martin is in seventh heaven! A new townhouse, state-of-the-art technology, and a salary, to boot! But Krach Industries has taken him for a cosmic ride! The truth is that the Martins are really just guinea pigs sent off to live on a secret orbital station (SOS!). Yet the Martins are neither rocket scientists nor kamikazes. George is a die-hard optimist and takes his responsibility as leader of the station pretty seriously. But leader of his own pack? His family is quite another story! His wife Monica is looking for an encounter of the third kind&her kind! His son Benjamin is a cosmic superhero fanatic, and his daughter Betty is a manic-depressive. Great topics for cocktail chat between Fax and Goodgrief, their cat and dog philosophers!
