The story takes place in a small village in Denmark where an alien comes to Earth to learn about human emotions, but instead is thwarted by a young boy and his friends, who find out that she is part of an intergalactic expedition to collect specimens across the universe. It's up to Carl and his friends to save their town and the world. They try to tell their parents, but all of them scoff at the idea that their children would make up lies about their teacher.
