On Kate's rare night out, she has the bad luck to run into one of the Ragoon, the mercantile aliens who control the Earth. She's sixteen, isn't carrying her Comprehensive Personal License and doesn't have a note from her owner (of course not, she an American!) It's off to the Merced Human Rehabilitation Center for this high schooler. But an automobile accident and an absent minded father leads to a chance encounter with a famous movie star (at least he is famous in his own mind.) And now he is living in her home. And technically (according to the Ragoon) she belongs to him!
