Larry and Balki return for an all-new season of hilarious escapades in "Perfect Strangers" season 4 episode 1, titled "Aliens." Picking up where the previous season left off, this episode kicks off the fourth season in high spirits, delivering a fresh dose of laughter and Larry's characteristic misadventures.

As the episode begins, we find Larry and Balki, our beloved oddball cousins, settling back into their lives in their Chicago apartment. With Larry working as a reporter for the Chicago Chronicle and Balki pursuing his studies, the cousins are ready to take on whatever life throws at them – or in this case, whatever falls from the sky.

One seemingly ordinary night, Larry is tasked with covering a meteor shower for the newspaper. Excited by the opportunity to report on the celestial event, he drags Balki along, promising him a night filled with wonder and awe. The cousins set up camp on the building's rooftop, armed with pillows and blankets to make themselves comfortable.

However, as the meteor shower intensifies, something extraordinary happens. A bright light appears, blinding Larry and Balki for a moment. When their vision returns, they notice a peculiar object crash-landing on a nearby rooftop. Intrigued and fueled by their insatiable curiosity, Larry and Balki rush over to investigate.

To their amazement, they discover a small, otherworldly spacecraft, seemingly abandoned. Convinced that aliens must be involved, Larry eagerly pitches the idea of an exclusive story about extraterrestrial life to Vince, his boss at the newspaper. Vince embraces the idea, seeing it as a potential ratings booster for the Chronicle.

Now, armed with cameras and notepads, Larry and Balki embark on a quest to prove the existence of aliens. Their enthusiasm leads them on a wild journey, encountering comical mishaps along the way. From chasing mysterious lights to interviewing eccentric witnesses claiming to have made contact with extraterrestrial beings, the cousins quickly find themselves in over their heads.

Meanwhile, Jennifer and Mary Anne, Larry and Balki's girlfriends, become concerned about their safety. Worried about the cousins' wild pursuit of the unknown, they attempt to rein in their enthusiasm and remind them of their more grounded responsibilities. Nevertheless, Larry and Balki remain undeterred, fully convinced that they are on the brink of the greatest discovery in human history.

With Larry and Balki's wild adventures gaining attention, a well-known ufologist, Dr. Paranormalis, catches wind of their search for evidence and offers his expertise. However, his eccentricity and outlandish theories present a whole new set of challenges for the cousins. Add in a skeptical police officer and a flurry of other quirky characters, and the stage is set for a whirlwind of laughs and misunderstandings in their pursuit of the truth.

"Aliens" is an episode that captures the heart and charm of "Perfect Strangers" as Larry and Balki's unique personalities collide with the extraordinary. Filled with hilarious moments, witty dialogue, and endearing character interactions, this season opener grips viewers from start to finish.

Will Larry and Balki manage to prove the existence of aliens? Or will their enthusiasm land them in hot water once again? Be sure to tune in to "Perfect Strangers" season 4 episode 1, "Aliens," to join the cousins on a wild, extraterrestrial adventure that will leave you in stitches!
