Today, the class meets on the beach, to accomadate the student who has a bit of an aquatic problem at the moment. The Doctor set out beach blanket and towels, and has hauled the holoprojector out on a cart.

"Pass forward your requests I asked for, thank you. As I let you know, we're switching things around a bit. Vampires and werewolves will be at a later date. Today is simply 'Close Encounters of the Unattractive Kind'. Now, please remember, that it's not so much that I find these species particularly unpleasant, it's just we might as well show some of the more unsavory aliens out in the world. Of course, beauty is in the eye of the beholder and all that. I'll be taking questions today, but no lecturing today. It's called close encounters for a reason. You'll be talking to the projections, trying to gather what you can from them. Ask them whatever. Remember they can't actually hurt you, but please only antagonize them if you're being terribly clever about it. There is no assignment for next week. Time for you all to put on your 'first contact' thinking caps. The projector will be sending out three different aliens. Talk to at least one, please."

The Doctor smiled, then turned on the projector. Three forms appeared...

"Wrecking the planet," the Silurian said, indignant. "They have ruined the surface."

"You mean ruined the service for habitation by lazy overlords that were sleeping and they didn't know existed?"

The Silurian scoffed. "Your species has polluted the oceans, damaged the atmosphere, and destroyed entire forests."

"Some people are slobs and should be punished until they can clean up after themselves yes." Pippi allowed. "Okay, so let's say you reclaim your place as rulers of the earth and figure out a way not to go nappy-bye again just because it gets a little cold... What would you do? Tell me your platform."

"I do not care for the opinion of an ape," he said. "You will most likely be dead or enslaved, should we rise again."

"Oooh, that doesn't sound fun at all." Pippi said. "I guess we'd have to stop you."

The Silurian laughed. "You are welcome to try."

"Thank you I will!" she said smiling as if he'd just asked her to tea, or to 'have a nice day'.

"So what's that red thing?"

"This is my third eye," the Silurian responded. "It can signal others of my kind, open doors, or attack my enemies."

"Open doors? How handy!"

"Quite," the Silurian replied, not very amused.

"Does your kind have any weaknesses I should know about?"

"No," the Silurian said. "There are none."

That he wanted her to know about, at least.

Which was actually what she was planning on asking next.

"Are there any weaknesses that you don't want to tell me about?"

"That is none of your business, human," it said.

"Oh, come on." Pippi said folding her arms and smiling. "If we're so primitive and insignificant then it doesn't matter. Is it the red thing?"

"I have no wish to continue this conversation, filthy ape," the Silurian said. "You have no business inquiring about such things."

"Oh come on." she said grinning. "It's not like you're real."

"I am real!" the Silurian shouted.

"Sure ya are." she said waving her arm through the projection.
