Chun Yull of Klaramar faked his death and teleported out of Klaramar to Saturn after thinking that Klaramar was destroyed. He learns that his plan was thwarted by Klee Pan of Klaramar and two highway patrol officers of Earth. The officers, Boone and Colby, now having telepathy since their encounter with Klee Pan, encounter Chun Yull, who telepathically forces them to detonate a bomb in Klaramar, destroying that world and killing themselves. With their new telepathic powers, they trick Yull into thinking they are going along with his plan and enlist the help of Pan once they are teleported with the bomb to Klaramar. With weapons given to them by Pan, they return to Earth, shrink Yull, and send him back to Klaramar to be imprisoned. The officers decide to keep their telepathic powers a secret.
