Newspaper reporter Tim O'Hara finds a crashed alien spaceship that contains one live alien. Not wanting to be discovered by the authorities, the Martian assumes the identity of Tim's Uncle Martin and begins to repair his spaceship so that he can return to Mars.

Can a reporter hide a stranded extraterrestrial from the government by posing as his own eccentric uncle? This mid-century romp relies on clever physical comedy and the frantic energy of a secret that refuses to stay buried.
