An elderly survivor of the Four Corners War tells the newer generation about a story that took place long ago. Within the story, a group of people are in a Brooklyn saloon called the Bochinche, including Ramses Garcia Garcia, who loves to play the drums, and his inventor girlfriend, Rosie. While they are in the saloon, someone from a rival gang based in Manhattan takes Rosie’s notebook. The notebook contains Rosie’s designs for various technologies; in the wrong hands, the designs could be used to wage evil. Ramses and Rosie leave the saloon to search the town. Ramses spots the notebook from overhead and starts to read what the stranger wrote in it. Inside, there is a fiction story. As Ramses reads, he feels tentacles wrapping around his legs. The stranger comes out and confesses that he took the notebook and wrote the story in it to help facilitate the entrance of extraterrestrial Visitors into Earth. Ramses begins to panic that it’s too late to keep the aliens away, but Rosie saves him; they hack the alien into pieces and escape, saving the world.
