Back at the house, Forster was getting ready for the game by putting on his school's t-shirt under his hoodie, putting orange, and white paint lines under his eyes, and putting on an orange headband. 

After heading downstairs, Forster is stopped by General Gordon watching television. "Your new school is on TV," Gordon said. "And in other news the first football game in space will be performed on the moon of Earth," the anchorman said. "The Space City Cyborgs will be in a gravitational football battle, against the Sea Town Pirates. With Channel 8 News, this is Chad O'Brian saying, have a ball."

"Oh yeah, the scientist's of NASA created this stadium, shaped like a sphere which is actually a force field," Forster said. "And they made orange, and green space suits for the players. They also created a floating scoreboard." "Sounds like a perfect place for football in space," Gordon said. "Does that mean I can go?" Forster asked.

"Tell you what, you did behave by studying since we got here, I think you deserve a reward," Gordon explained. "Here are my keys, be sure to bring the shuttle back by midnight." "Got it," Forster said. After taking the keys, Forster went across the street to get Ellie. "Hi Mr. Charles, is Ellie home?" Forster asked. "We're going to a football game." "Elliot, the Generals child's here," Mr.Charles said. Ellie came out wearing white pants, and an orange tank top. "We're going to the game, are you coming?" Forster asked. 

"Yeah just let me get my purse," Ellie answered. Ellie grabbed it from the coat rack. "Be sure to have her back by 11:00 P.M., or earlier," Mr. Charles said. "Yes sir," Forster said. The couple went to Forster's garage, where he got out the space shuttle.

"How did you get this rocket?" Ellie asked. "I've been living with the General of NASA since my parents disappeared from a space mission," Forster said. "This is basically like the only car I know how to drive." "But how can you drive a space shuttle with out an astronaut license?" Ellie asked. "Gordon taught me when I was Fourteen," Forster answered. "Okay, engage engines, activate turbine, and step on the gas." And the rocket took off to the exit of the Space City.
