Yuck! I can't imagine a watermelon seed spitting contest. But I can't stand the hot dog eating contests either. You've really rounded up quite a group of characters. Plan 9 is really surly. If he has such distain for Earth he should go back to where he came from immediately. Ned has at last found something he can shine out. Uncle's monkey at the end is funny. I believe I've seen Mike Rowe on TV. I don't think he's that well known. Does this mean you watch Fox TV? judi

This was hilariousI Plan 9 reminds me of Marvin the Martian in the Bugs Bunny cartoons, "Where's the Kaboom, there should be an earth shattering Kaboom. I'd still like to see Plan 9 and Ned go head to head. Good job.

Your script is well-written, interesting, realistic. Your dialogue brought your characters to life. The part about tying one lung behind his back was a nice touch. It showed his ego, confidence that he'd win.

Very interesting scene. The lingo adds another dimension to this humorous script. Appears Plan 9 has other thoughts in mind besides a watermelon seed spitting contest, like destroying a certain "revolving orb of refuge". (BTW, good description of the earth). Well done.

LOL! This is hilarious. I really like "America-loving" Apollo, no doubt a Ruskie spy. And Plan 9 (great movie...hahaha) makes no secret of his plans to destroy Earth. And Ned won! What a nice surprise. About time he didn't fail miserably at something! :)

    Thank you, Phyllis, for the great review. Yes, Ned has beaten the vagrant, nut, alien, Pallas, and a spitting legend.

Well, I am spit to be tied. Who knew? Looks like old Ned has a measure of talent for something after all. Ned may well prove to be someone of note after all is said and done.

I knew that Ned would be really good at something! Hope he gets to take home the prize as long as Plan 9 doesn't create some catastrophe. I'll assume his misspellings is due to his speech.
