Two years ago, Robert "Wichita Slim" Owens was released from prison after serving time for bank robbery in Dry Gulch. During his sentence, Owens accepted Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior, remaining on "the right side of the law" ever since. On his way to be awarded a position with the United States Marshal Service, "Slim" (as many call him) crosses paths with his former outlaw partner Dawson McClure, now heading a new gang of his own. Escorting a preacher and his family to Dry Gulch, Owens is made a U.S. Marshal, only for the ceremony to be interrupted by McClure's gang. Hit from behind after a confrontation with hotshot gunman "Lightning" Johnny Silvers, Slim begins suffering from amnesia, and returns to his outlaw ways. Made a Territorial Ranger by the Governor, "Gospel Bill" is granted 15 days to bring Owens back...dead or alive.

Scorch then returns to Planet Baab where he is known as a famous hero and a love interest for anchorwoman Gabby Babblebrook (Sofía Vergara) while at BASA his brother Gary (Rob Corddry) works. Gary's son Kip (Jonathan Morgan Heit) is a big fan of his uncle Scorch. Soon, Gary and Scorch receive a message from Lena Thackleman (Jessica Alba), the head of BASA, that Scorch will be sent to the "Dark Planet" (Earth) due to an SOS call. Scorch decides to go on the mission to the Dark Planet, but Gary strongly insists that he doesn't go because he is not serious. Also, no alien has ever returned from the dark planet. After further arguing, Gary finally says that he won't be helping Scorch and quits BASA before Scorch himself fires him. Gary then goes home to his wife Kira (Sarah Jessica Parker) and Kip only to find out that Scorch has already gone on the mission to the Dark Planet, while Kip is watching it on live TV in excitement.
