Wormingham is having a masquerade ball, and Bert wants to ask Crystal to be his date. But Wormaline's plans to go to the ball with Burt herself may interfere.

Transferred to a new job, the Peoples family arrive on the planet Bolognia. Feeling very insecure about the move, they become even more intimidated by the sight of their hosts who are green, spotted and have antennae! Their new Bolognian neighbors, Charlick and Mavo Zox, find the look of the Earth family just as shocking. However, when little Benny Peoples gets "lost", he unwittingly brings the two families together and life on this new planet begins to look promising.

The Mirthworms take center stage at the Wormingham Bowl as they present "Sleeping Beauty." The wicked Wormaline Wiggler tries to wrangle the lead but Crystal Crawler wins the prize. Wormaline attempts to steal the show, but her sneaky shenanigans bring down the house instead.
