Pip and Nova are undercover at a human backyard BBQ. There is a grill, a bowl of mysterious lumpy clouds (potato salad), and one Grill Sergeant who cannot know there are two small purple aliens in his food.

Then Nova attempts a physics based burger flip, and the burger ends up somewhere burgers are really not supposed to go. The Agent helps Pip and Nova work out whether a thing that went very wrong might also be a very good story.

This episode helps kids understand that a mistake and a story can be the same thing, depending on how you look at it.
