Part 2/8:
However, news of Pacoli's discoveries does not go unnoticed. A cunning priest, fearing the impact of such knowledge, attempts to poison Pacoli. But in an ironic twist, Pacoli declines the offer of poisoned water, asking Billy to fetch alcohol instead. Shortly thereafter, a starship lands atop the ancient pyramid, revealing enormous robotic aliens known as the Mondoshawans. This encounter escalates as the aliens explain their urgent mission: retrieving the elemental stones and a sarcophagus containing the perfect being as Earth faces imminent peril.
