It's always nice to receive gifts. Not from your Grandmother, of course, unless there's money in it. Thanks Grandma. Why is it that she just can't buy you a decent present? Anyway, sometimes those gifts require a lot of responsibility, like those terribly complicated LEGO sets, or a pet. Returning to Earth, Mongrels Stevens finds some surprises waiting for him: his mon, a pet monkey, and Elvis. Although he's only an Elvis impersonator, he's so good at his job that one out of every ten thousand fans can't tell the difference – and all those fans live in Dunttstown. Getting caught up in a small mob, Mongrel catches the eye of a repugnant woman, who thrusts her advances at him and won't take no for an answer. He does his best to handle all this while taking care of his new charge, but it seems like Dunttstown is no place for a monkey.
