Synopsis for "Big for His Age"
Gross-Out writes a story telling his origin for the other members of Scare Tactics. On their way to their next gig, each of them reads it in turn. It details how he was an average, overweight kid who became interested in astronomy and one day saw a meteor fall to Earth. He went to see the meteor, touched it and was affected radically, eventually changing him into the creature he is now. His mother turned him in to the government who kept him at a scientific facility for further study until the Scare Tactics group broke him out.
Touched, Nina writes Phil (Gross-Out) a song and plays it at their next gig. The gang is eating breakfast at a diner the next morning when their van is stolen with all their musical gear in it -- and Nina, sleeping in her coffin.
