Commander Keen is still at his never ending galactic Senate meeting, and will be quite annoyed to find out the his pet yorp has lost Billy's most prized possession - his Bean-with-Bacon Megarocket. Oops.
In our last episode Norp went aboard a solar bomb Mortimer McMire had set up to destroy the solar system. Luckily Norp defused it and foiled Mortimer's plans. But Norp was sent out into space and landed on a desolate asteroid orbiting the moon. And what did he see over the horizon? Another factory set up by Mortimer.
Norp wants to destroy Mortimer once and for all. It was Mortimer that ruined his vacation in the first place, and it was Mortimer's fault that he was stuck here. Norp starts running towards the building, and what does he see? A giant Mortimer, walking across the ground! Ten stories tall he stood, a gargantuan figure towering above Norp.
"Bu-but-t, h-how?" stammered Norp.
Mortimer chuckled and answered, "Oh, I've developed my own little formula. Goodbye."
And he picked Norp up, tossed him in his mouth, and swallowed him whole.
Norp, in a state of panic, squirmed around, and found his way through a hole that looked a little like a pore. He ended up in a labyrinth of tunnels, facing strange and dangerous creatures.
