The story begins with a stage show of twenty fifth century in which a historian is sitting in the museum and she explains the truth about the Martian invasion that happened in twentieth century. To prove her statement she asks the audience to look into the historiscope, a device that can show things happened in the history. In the next scene two characters are shown one of them which has a balloon brain is shown as the master. His name is Think Tank and another one is his assistant Noodle. Both of them are discussing about their plan to invade earth. They think that earth is a ridiculous plan and they should invade earth so as to establish their kind rule over the planet. So, the master think tank sends one of his crew to inspect earth. The crew lands into a library and look confuse as they know nothing about the items (books) of the library. So, they consult it with their master Think Tank that they think is very intelligent. He asks them to show the item and tells them that they are sandwiches which is a staple diet of the earthlings. He commands his crew to eat it, which they then consider as a tasteless eatable. His assistant Noodle corrects him and tells him that they are the communication devices. He on hearing this, asks his crew to listen to the information from the devices. They try to hear it but they get nothing to hear from them. Once again Noodle corrects his master Think Tank that they are to be read and not hear. So with the help of the vitamins provided by the chemical department of Mars, the crew tries to read the book. It was a book of rhymes.
