Invention of the week: Superscope (Enhanced Telescope) & Transporter (telephone booth body--nod to Doc Who?)
An asteroid is headed for the earth. Wayne is given an inane staff Mr. Jennings got at bulk rate from Bill Gates. On TV, Mr. Jennings lets it slip that the world has three days left to live. Via Diane, it is also announced in court. Then they find out the asteroid is inhabited.
References abound (Star Wars, Star Trek, talk shows, and others); Wayne is beamed to the asteroid; a General wants to nuke the thing, Diane has to wear The Red Dress and sing to distract him; and more.
They even break the fourth wall--dramatically.
