Plot
One day, Sheen sneaks into Jimmy's lab, looking for his Ultra Lord card. He looks underneath a blanket and finds out that Jimmy has built a brand new rocket just for one. He disobeys Jimmy's specific warning signs, blasts off into space and crash lands on a planet called Zeenu. The Emperor of Zeenu mistakes him for a genius and appoints him as his top advisor. Sheen tries to go home, but the rocket explodes before it can get off the ground. However, a villain named Dorkus (who is the Emperor's old supreme advisor) vows to destroy him because of his jealousy of Sheen and because Sheen accidentally destroyed his house in the crash.
In Dorkus' first attempt, he tries to get him executed, but Sheen easily defeats the executor out of pure luck.
In Dorkus's next attempt, he brings Sheen into The Valley of Unpleasant Holes. He leaves him there with a vicious Chocktow named Chock Chock, but later, a Zeenuian girl named Aseefa saves him from it. Sheen befriends Mr. Nesmith, a chimpanzee who came to Zeenu forty years ago and he agrees to help Sheen fix the rocket as long as he can come back to Earth with him. Sheen then writes a letter to his grandma explaining the situation he is in and he tells her that he'll be home soon.

Sheen's Starlog Entry
"Dear Grandma,
This is Sheen's log, Stardate: One, I guess. So here I am stuck on a planet with a creepy guy with a funny name and a talking monkey (Nesmith: Ape!) and a cute yodeling blue girl. It's not too bad I guess, but I really miss you guys and as soon as I can get my rocket fixed, I'll be right home. Until then, I will represent my home planet with pride, fight all intergalactic evil and brush my teeth regularly so I don't get teeth like Uncle Miguel.
Oh well. Wish I could mail this, it'd take a whole lot of stamps.
Love your grandson, Sheen"
