After a cooling system breakdown a spacecraft is forced to land in a watermelon field, much to the consternation of a farmer and his donkey. The craft’s doors open and, as the robot heads towards a water pitcher to slacken his thirst, the farmer and his donkey rush to the safety of the house. What will the future hold for the three of them?
