In an animation, Bo pushes levers and buttons on a controller in Swop Shop Headquarters. He wears a green hat over his curly, short brown hair.

Episode title: U.F.O.
[Static hissing, eerie music plays]
In the Swop Shop Headquarters, Mojo watches a staticky television screen.
Bo asks, ANYTHING?
Mojo replies, STILL THE SAME. IT'S NOT LOOKING GOOD FOR MOVIE NIGHT.
Bo says, I CAN'T FIGURE OUT WHAT'S WRONG WITH IT. IT SHOULD BE WORKING.
[Horn blaring, Bo screaming, clanging, glass breaking]
A horn on the wall shakes, and Bo startles. He bounces across Mojo.
Bo shouts, WELL, AT LEAST THAT'S WORKING ANYWAYS!
[Beeping, whirring, static hissing]
Bo pushes a button, and Mayor Sunita appears on the television screen.
Mojo says, MOJO SWOPTOPS, HELPING YOU IS WHAT WE DO.
[Static crackling, eerie music plays]
Mayor Sunita says, MOJO, BO, ALL THE T.V.’S IN TOWN HAVE GONE OUT. THE T.V. DISH ON THE HILL BY JACKSON'S FARM MUST'VE FALLEN OFF AGAIN.
On the television, a tall satellite dish appears on top of a cliff.
Mayor Sunita says, WITHOUT THAT, NO ONE'S TELEVISION WORKS PROPERLY.
Bo says, OH, SO THAT'S THE PROBLEM. WE'RE ON IT, MAYOR SUNITA.
[Beeping, whirring, energetic music plays, chiming, clicking]
Bo pushes a button and ends the call. An opening in the ceiling of the Swop Shop shuts, and the controller flies into Bo’s hand. Different vehicles appear on the television screen.
Bo says, OKAY, NOW, WHICH TOP SHOULD WE USE TO PUT THAT SATELLITE DISH BACK?
Mojo says, THE CRANE TOP! WE COULD GRAB THE DISH AND THROW IT BACK INTO PLACE.
[Clicking]
Bo says, MAYBE SOMETHING WITH A LITTLE LESS... THROWING?
Mojo says, BOAT TOP?
Bo asks, TO GO UP A BIG HILL?
Mojo says, OH, RIGHT. WELL, I'M GOING TO KEEP SAYING THAT ONE AND ONE DAY IT'LL BE RIGHT.
[Bo giggling]
Bo says, I'VE GOT AN IDEA.
[Beeping, chiming, gasping]
Bo pushes a button. He and Mojo look at the television screen.
Bo and Mojo say, IT'S TIME TO...SWOP THAT TOP!
[Rock music plays, whirring, clicking, rotors whirring]
Mojo drives onto a platform and rises on a vehicle lift. Bo pushes buttons on the controller, and mechanical arms remove Mojo’s wheels. A rotor blade spins, and Bo jumps into Mojo and fastens his seatbelt. The opening in the ceiling slides open, and Mojo flies out of Headquarters.
Bo and Mojo shout, CHOPPER TOP!
[Rotors whirring, serious music plays, whooshing]
At twilight, Moho flies to the satellite tower, but the dish is missing. They look at the ground around the tower and find the dish on a treetop growing on the cliff face.
Bo says, AH, THERE'S THE DISH! ON THAT CLIFF ABOVE JACKSON'S FARM! WE'LL HAVE THAT FIXED IN A JIFFY.
[Bleating, chewing]
On the farm, a sheep in a pen chews a leaf. A pail of lime green paint is beside the pen fence. Farmer Jackson, a tall man with curly black hair, holds a paintbrush. He stands with Preston, a man with short brown hair and a moustache, a man with short black hair who wears a headband, and a woman with pink hair.
Jackson says, AH, THANKS FOR HELPING ME PAINT MY FENCE, EVERYONE. I WOULD'VE BEEN HERE ALL NIGHT IF IT WASN'T FOR YOU LOT JOINING IN.
[Whooshing]
Preston says, NOT AT ALL, JACKSON, NOT AT ALL. IT'S WHAT HAVING FRIENDS IS ALL ABOUT. IN FACT, IT REMINDS ME OF THE TIME WHEN I CAME…
[Clearing his throat]
Preston says, THIRD IN SWOPPITON'S FINEST FENCE PAINTING COMPETITION. NOW, THAT WAS A COLOURFUL AFTERNOON.
[Preston’s voice grows distant, Mojo grunting, rotors whirring]
By the farm, Mojo hovers above the satellite dish and slowly lowers.
Bo says, LITTLE TO THE LEFT, TO THE RIGHT. EASY. EASY!
[Clanging]
Mojo lands on the satellite dish.
Bo says, THERE!
[People gasping, crickets chirping]
On the farm, everyone looks up towards the cliff.
Jackson asks, WHAT WAS THAT?
[Tense music plays]
Jackson, Preston, and the others walk closer to the cliff and look up at the bottom of the satellite dish.
Preston says, OOH, I KNOW. IT LOOKS LIKE A...
[Gasping]
Preston says, A FLYING SAUCER.
[Creaking]
Bo ties the dish to Mojo’s landing skids.
On the dish, Bo says, THAT'S THE DISH ATTACHED, MOJO. LET'S TURN SOME LIGHTS ON SO WE CAN SEE WHAT WE'RE DOING.
Mojo says, AND FLY IT BACK INTO POSITION.
[Tense music plays]
Jackson says, ALIENS? IN SWOPPITON?
[Laughing]
Jackson says, I DON'T KNOW ABOUT THAT, PRESTON. IT'S PROBABLY MORE LIKE...
[Whooshing, rotors whirring]
Mojo’s light glows through holes around the rim of the satellite dish.
[Black-haired man gasping]
The pink-haired woman says, BLIMEY.
The black-haired man says, FAR OUT.
Preston says, COSMIC COLLYWOBBLES!
Bo says, OKAY, MOJO, LET'S TAKE IT UP.
[Eerie music plays, whirring, whooshing]
Mojo lifts the dish, with Bo standing on it. The dish spins in the air, and everyone on the ground stares open-mouthed.
Jackson says, IT... IT... IT IS ALIENS!
[Whimpering, music ends, rotors whirring]
On the dish, Mojo asks, UH, BO, WHAT'S WRONG WITH THAT LOT?
Bo says, I DON'T KNOW. THEY MUST...REALLY WANT THEIR T.V.’S FIXED. LET'S JUST GO AND SAY HELLO.
[Whooshing, eerie music plays]
Mojo flies closer to the farm.
On the ground, Preston says, OH, MIGHTY BEINGS FROM ANOTHER WORLD, WHAT BRINGS YOU TO OUR HUMBLE PLANET?
[Clicking, feedback squeaking, rotors whirring]
On the dish, Bo takes a speaker out of Mojo.
Bo, via the speaker, says, UH, WE WERE JUST TRYING TO FIX THE T.V.?
On the ground, Preston says, T.V. IS THAT YOUR HOME PLANET? THIS PLANET IS CALLED EARTH.
Bo, via the speaker, says, PRESTON, WHAT ARE YOU ON ABOUT?
On the ground, Preston says, QUIVERING QUASARS, THEY...THEY KNOW MY NAME!
Bo, via the speaker, says, YEAH, HOLD ON, WE'LL COME DOWN AND GET YOU.
On the ground, Preston says, THEY'RE...THEY'RE COMING FOR ME!
[Screaming]
On the ground, Jackson, the pink-haired woman, and the black-haired man flee. Preston stares up at the satellite dish.
Preston says, TAKE ME.
Jackson runs back to Preston.
Jackson says, COME ON, PRESTON.
Preston says, TAKE ME!
[Preston shouting, others screaming, exciting music plays, Jackson panting, bush rustling, sheep bleating]
Jackson picks Preston up. At the sheep pen, the pink-haired woman leaps over the fence. The black-haired man runs into the gate and pushes it open. Jackson jumps into a bush and hides with Preston. Sheep escape from the pen.
On the dish, Bo says, OH NO, THE SHEEP ARE OUT!
Mojo says, WE'LL HAVE TO GET THEM BACK!
Bo says, IT'S TOO DARK; I CAN'T SEE THEM!
Mojo says, DON'T WORRY, WE CAN USE MY SPOTLIGHT.
[Bush rustling, whirring, clanking, music ends]
On the ground, Jackson and Preston poke their heads up through the bush as the satellite lowers towards a sheep. Mojo points his spotlight at a sheep.
Preston whispers, WHAT ARE THEY DOING?
On the dish, Bo says, RIGHT THEN, SHEEP.
[Whooshing, bleating, Bo straining, awe-filled music plays]
Bo throws a lasso around the sheep’s leg and pulls it to the dish.
[Jackson and Preston gasping, thumping sheep bleating, Bo straining, boinging, thumping, Mojo giggling, rotors whirring]
The sheep hits the hole in the centre of the satellite dish. Bo pulls on his rope, and the sheep squeezes through the hole, knocking him over.
Mojo says, NICE CATCH, BO.
On the ground, Jackson says, THEY BEAMED UP MY SHEEP!
On the dish, Bo says, QUICKLY, MOJO, WE'VE GOT TO CATCH THE REST OF THEM BEFORE THEY GET LOST IN THE DARK!
[Rotors whirring, bleating]
Mojo flies towards the other sheep.
On the ground, Jackson says, AND NOW THEY'RE GOING AFTER THE REST OF 'EM!
Preston shouts, TAKE ME WITH YOU! I WANT TO GO TO SPACE TOO!
The pink-haired woman and black-haired man run towards a house.
The pink-haired woman shouts, WHOA! IT'S COMING TO GET US! RUN, RUN!
[Thumping, shouting, bleating, panicked shouting, energetic music plays, thumping, popping]
The pink-haired woman trips over a sheep and falls. The black-haired man falls on the other side of the sheep as Mojo’s spotlight shines on the animal. Bo pulls the sheep through the hole, and the people flee. Mojo swoops towards another sheep, and their spotlight shines on Preston.
Preston shouts, HERE I AM!
[Bleating, whooshing, thumping]
Bo pulls the sheep up. Preston leaps towards the spot on the ground and misses grabbing the sheep.
Preston says, OOH!
[Thumping, bleating, exciting music continues]
Bo pulls the third sheep onto the dish and holds it over his head.
On the dish, Bo says, WELL DONE, MOJO.
Mojo says, OH, THERE'S THREE MORE OVER THERE.
[Bleating]
Mojo chases three sheep. On the ground, Jackson runs behind the sheep.
Jackson shouts, GET OFF MY SHEEP!
[Bleating, popping, Bo sighing, rotors whirring, exciting music continues]
Bo pulls the three sheep through the hole in the centre of the dish.
[Bleating, screaming]
Bo lassos three sheep and pulls them up to the ship, revealing the pink-haired woman and black-haired man hiding behind them. They stand and run.
On the ground, Jackson says, QUICK! MY LAST SHEEP!
[Screaming]
On the ground, everyone runs towards the last sheep.
Preston shouts, TAKE ME TO YOUR PLANET, PLEASE!
[Bleating, thumping, grunting, rotors whirring]
A lasso lands around the sheep, and Bo pulls it up through the hole in the dish. In the darkness, everyone on the ground crashes together and falls.
On the dish, Mojo says, OKAY, THAT'S ALL THE SHEEP. WE CAN DROP THEM OFF AND PUT THE SATELLITE DISH BACK.
[Insects buzzing]
On the ground, Jackson says, OH, MY SHEEP. MY POOR, POOR SHEEP.
Preston says, I CAN'T BELIEVE THEY WOULDN'T TAKE ME WITH THEM. I'M HEAD OF THE ASTRONOMY CLUB AND THE SCI-FI CLUB. BUT INSTEAD, THOSE SHEEP GET TO GO TO SPACE.
[Whooshing]
The pink-haired woman says, SHH, THEY'RE COMING BACK.
[Whooshing, eerie music plays]
Mojo carries the dish over the sheep pen.
On the dish, Bo says, HANG ON, MOJO, THAT GATE NEEDS CLOSING FIRST.
Mojo says, OKAY, BUDDY, I'LL LOWER YOU DOWN.
On the ground, Jackson says, IT STOPPED.
Preston says, I THINK SOMETHING'S HAPPENING.
[Clanking]
Bo’s silhouette appears in Mojo’s spotlight as he is lowered to the ground.
Preston says, IT'S ONE OF THEM! THEY'RE BEAMING DOWN TO EARTH.
[Chomping, snapping, Bo shouting, thumping, splashing]
On the dish, a sheep chews through the rope holding Bo, and he falls to the ground.
[Everyone gasping, clicking]
Jackson turns on his flashlight.
On the dish, Mojo says, WHOA, SHEEP, WHAT JUST HAPPENED?
[Eerie music plays, everyone gasping, paint squelching]
Jackson shines his flashlight on the lime green paint can. Bo stands up inside it, covered with green paint.
Preston says, WELCOME TO EARTH.
Bo says, BLEH.
[Dramatic music plays, everyone shouting, Bo gibbering with paint in his mouth, mumbling]
Preston shouts, AN ALIEN.
The black-haired man says, AWESOME!

[Exciting music plays, paint splattering]
Everyone charges Bo. He steps out of the paint can and runs away.
Bo shouts, AH! WHOA!
The black-haired man says, ALIEN!
Jackson shouts, FOLLOW THAT ALIEN!
Bo says, I'M NOT AN ALIEN!
Someone shouts, STOP! COME HERE!
On the dish, Mojo says, OH, NO! BO! OH, HELLO.
[Bleating]
A sheep sits behind Mojo’s steering wheel.
Mojo says, OH YEAH, YOU'RE RIGHT. WE NEED TO HELP HIM.
[Bubbling]
Mojo looks down at a wooden tub of bubbly water and a soap box.
Mojo says, AND I'VE GOT A PLAN.
[Exciting music plays, thumping, bleating, Bo panting]
Mojo lowers a sheep on a rope, and the sheep picks up the soap box. On the ground, Preston and the black-haired man block Bo’s way.
Bo babbles, BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAN BL-ALIEN.
Bo runs away, and Preston and the black-haired man follow him.
Preston says, BLAH BLAH BLAIEN? OH, TEACH ME YOUR ALIEN LANGUAGE! I'M BLAH BLAH BLAIEN TOO!
[Water splashing, Bo panting, Bo shouting, tense music plays]
At a pond, Mojo swoops down and scoops up water. At the farm, Jackson and the pink-haired woman block Bo’s path, and he backs away.
Jackson says, GOTCHA! RIGHT, NOW WHERE ARE MY SHEEP?
Bo says, UH... BLAH...
[Babbling]
Bo says, BLIM... BO!
On the dish, Mojo asks, READY, SHEEP?
[Bleating, rotors whirring, tense music plays]
Jackson says, HUH?
Mojo says, AND...SHEEP'S AWAY!
[Bubbles popping, screaming, grunting, thumping, bleating, water splashing]
Mojo swoops down and dumps soapy water and sheep towards Bo. The sheep tumble into him, wiping the green paint off and knocking him over.
Everyone says, BO?
Jackson says, BO! WHERE'S THE ALIEN?
[Boinging]
Bo pulls his leg out of the pile of sheep.
Bo says, THERE WAS NO ALIEN! MOJO AND I WERE JUST TRYING TO FIX THE SATELLITE DISH.
Mojo hovers close to the ground.
Everyone mutters, OH. RIGHT, I SEE IT. OF COURSE.
[Clanking]
Mojo lands with the sheep still behind the steering wheel.
Preston asks, AND THE ALIENS CAME FROM PLANET T.V. TO HELP YOU?
Bo replies, NO, PRESTON, THERE NEVER WERE ANY ALIENS.
Preston says, THEN...
[Sniffling]
Preston continues, YOU MEAN I'M NEVER GOING TO GET TO RIDE IN AN ALIEN SPACESHIP?
Bo looks at Mojo and says, HM?
[Mojo giggling]
Bo says, WELL, HELPING YOU IS WHAT WE DO.
[Eerie music plays, rotors whirring]
Preston stands on the satellite dish as Mojo carries it to the tower.
Preston shouts, MOJO, BO, CAN YOU BELIEVE WE'RE FLYING IN AN ACTUAL SPACESHIP?
Mojo says, I SURE CAN BECAUSE WE'RE NOT.
[Bo giggling]
Bo says, MOJO MEANS LET'S JUST ENJOY THE RIDE. JUST A QUICK TRIP TO MARS, ALIENS? PLEASE? WELL, WHAT ABOUT THE MOON? NO? THE TOP OF A VERY TALL MOUNTAIN THEN. THAT'S ALL—

On the dish, Mojo says, OH, NO! BO! OH, HELLO.
[Bleating]
A sheep sits behind Mojo’s steering wheel.
Mojo says, OH YEAH, YOU'RE RIGHT. WE NEED TO HELP HIM.
[Bubbling]
Mojo looks down at a wooden tub of bubbly water and a soap box.
Mojo says, AND I'VE GOT A PLAN.
[Exciting music plays, thumping, bleating, Bo panting]
Mojo lowers a sheep on a rope, and the sheep picks up the soap box. On the ground, Preston and the black-haired man block Bo’s way.
Bo babbles, BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAN BL-ALIEN.
Bo runs away, and Preston and the black-haired man follow him.
Preston says, BLAH BLAH BLAIEN? OH, TEACH ME YOUR ALIEN LANGUAGE! I'M BLAH BLAH BLAIEN TOO!
[Water splashing, Bo panting, Bo shouting, tense music plays]
At a pond, Mojo swoops down and scoops up water. At the farm, Jackson and the pink-haired woman block Bo’s path, and he backs away.
Jackson says, GOTCHA! RIGHT, NOW WHERE ARE MY SHEEP?
Bo says, UH... BLAH...
[Babbling]
Bo says, BLIM... BO!
On the dish, Mojo asks, READY, SHEEP?
[Bleating, rotors whirring, tense music plays]
Jackson says, HUH?
Mojo says, AND...SHEEP'S AWAY!
[Bubbles popping, screaming, grunting, thumping, bleating, water splashing]
Mojo swoops down and dumps soapy water and sheep towards Bo. The sheep tumble into him, wiping the green paint off and knocking him over.
Everyone says, BO?
Jackson says, BO! WHERE'S THE ALIEN?
[Boinging]
Bo pulls his leg out of the pile of sheep.
Bo says, THERE WAS NO ALIEN! MOJO AND I WERE JUST TRYING TO FIX THE SATELLITE DISH.
Mojo hovers close to the ground.
Everyone mutters, OH. RIGHT, I SEE IT. OF COURSE.
[Clanking]
Mojo lands with the sheep still behind the steering wheel.
Preston asks, AND THE ALIENS CAME FROM PLANET T.V. TO HELP YOU?
Bo replies, NO, PRESTON, THERE NEVER WERE ANY ALIENS.
Preston says, THEN...
[Sniffling]
Preston continues, YOU MEAN I'M NEVER GOING TO GET TO RIDE IN AN ALIEN SPACESHIP?
Bo looks at Mojo and says, HM?
[Mojo giggling]
Bo says, WELL, HELPING YOU IS WHAT WE DO.
[Eerie music plays, rotors whirring]
Preston stands on the satellite dish as Mojo carries it to the tower.
Preston shouts, MOJO, BO, CAN YOU BELIEVE WE'RE FLYING IN AN ACTUAL SPACESHIP?
Mojo says, I SURE CAN BECAUSE WE'RE NOT.
[Bo giggling]
Bo says, MOJO MEANS LET'S JUST ENJOY THE RIDE. JUST A QUICK TRIP TO MARS, ALIENS? PLEASE? WELL, WHAT ABOUT THE MOON? NO? THE TOP OF A VERY TALL MOUNTAIN THEN. THAT'S ALL—
[Upbeat music plays]
Singers sing, MOJO. SWOPTOPS. MOJO. SWOPTOPS. MOJO. SWOPTOPS.
