With his invasion force, Modo brings Thark, a Venusian Viper-Man, one of the Jupiter Jumping Jacks, and a Stone Man from Saturn. The police dismiss radio transmissions received until one concerning a Kipley's bank robbery and Modo's aliens heading toward the armory. The police handle both situations.
