After an accident renders Aldy and Brandt the last two blue whales in Melville, they are placed under the protective care of a newly reinstated, astronaut guardian known simply as “Spaceman.” Aldy and Brandt are quick to corrupt his good intentions.

Upon waking from a two day couch coma, Spaceman rushes to complete his mission, only to find that a riot has broken out at the preservation facility. After being separated, Spaceman investigates the true nature of the facility while Aldy and Brandt are led to believe that it’s “..mostly sunshine and hand jobs from here on out.” Spaceman accepts that he is powerless.
S1 E3: “Tour de Luna” (Steps 2 & 3)
Aldy and Brandt are fed up with cyclists flooding the streets so they take it upon themselves to lobby for separate bike lanes. Unbeknownst to them, another group has similar interests, but for all of the wrong reasons. After realizing they’ve become the unofficial spokesmen for an alt-white beluga hate group, they call on their trusty, recovering Spaceman to save the day. Spaceman finds God. God is good.
S1 E4: “Aldy’s Magical D” (Steps 4 & 5)
The gang goes to the fair! When Brandt knocks over a lamp in the fortune teller’s tent, he releases the river dolphin dick demon, Encantada.

Spaceman conducts an in depth moral inventory and confides in Brandt.

It’s All Hollow’s Eve in Melville and everyone’s at the best party of the year, except Aldy and Brandt.

Spaceman won’t stop saying sorry.
S1 E8: “Brandt Kills Himself” (Step 10)
