Synopsis:
A young boy disappears one fine Florida night and reappears eight years later, none the worse for wear and apparently not a day older. It seems he was abducted by aliens and employed as an intergalactic navigator on their spacecraft. Now, with the help of his otherworldly friends, he must find a way to get back to the correct time before it's too late.
