Orko is visited by his old friend (yes, old friend, in spite of the title) Squunge, from the Academy of Magic on Trolla. Squunge has a knack for telling wild lies and tall tales, and quickly begins to annoy Orko and his friends with this habit. Then Orko winds up being captured by an intergalactic criminal called the Slave Master, scouring the universe for powerful slaves- will Squunge be able to convince the others that he's not lying this time?
