2: Die aliens oorkant die straat

Toe daar nuwe intrekkers oorkant die straat is, begin Sanri se neus kriewel - soos altyd wanneer sy 'n lekker sappige storie ruik. Hoekom trek die nuwe mense een nag tydens 'n woeste donderstorm in? Waarom ry hulle met so 'n vreemde borrelkar? En waarom tree die twee kinders met hulle silwerwit hare so snaaks op? Sanri is seker hulle nuwe bure is aliens.
