[ WP ] It turns out that an alien species discovered Earth in the 1920s . Frightened of our violent nature , they send an alien disguised as a human to stop us . In order to hinder our progress , the alien introduces us to TV . It is now 2015 , and the alien is now tasked to remove the influence of TV .

“ I ’ m sorry, what? ” I asked, taken aback by the request sent down from the mother ship buried on the dark side of the moon. 
 
 “ You heard me, Glax, that Television thing you ’ ve created needs to go. It had a good run, we thought the violence in real life was bad, but this stuff. I mean you ’ ve seen some of these shows, that ’ s what they call them right? ” The metallic voice responded, with a hint of confusion. 
 
 “ Look, I spent a lot of time to get this stuff up and running. Who cares if there ’ s some tits, or some gore every once in a while. ” I said, crossing both sets of my arms. It was freeing to be out of my human costume for a little while. 
 
 “ Glax, you ’ re beginning to talk like them too. I mean, you even ask me to use their common language when we speak over the holo-communitron. ” 
 
 “ I need the practice! ” I responded, slightly offended. 
 
 “ After almost 100 Earth years? You know the language by now, you ’ re becoming one of them. Look, the Television isn ’ t just for silly picture shows anymore. They get their fears out, and they spread lies and propagandas. This is the kind of stuff we wanted to stop them from doing! You can ’ t seriously think it ’ s okay to let them keep this sort of technology. ” 
 
 I allowed silence to fill the room decorated with old posters from human movies, and television shows. I was so proud of what the humans had done with TV, as they had shortened it. It was beautiful. A human word that I often used to describe it was ‘ artistic ’. I hadn ’ t realized how long I ’ d been staring at the posters until the voice on the communicator buzzed up again. 
 
 “ Glax, I know you ’ re still there, say something. ” It demanded. The voice had always been grating because of electronic interference, but now it was even more annoying to listen to. “ Glax, this is stupid. You know if you don ’ t pull the plug, we can do it from here. You just won ’ t like our method of doing so. ” 
 
 “ You ’ d resort to violence? I believe it was a human who said, “ an eye for an eye makes the whole world blind. ” Or are you so much like the creatures you fear you don ’ t care? ” I asked, raising my voice. 
 
 The silence was deafening. 
 
 “ Glax. ” It spoke, after a long pause. 
 
 “ Yes? ” 
 
 “ You have one Earth week. ” 
 
 “ Yes. Of course. ”
