Dr. Michael Ong, former seminarian-turned-athesist-scientist, is assigned to a government warehouse in his hometown which the locals have dubbed [[Title Drop|Creature Tech]]. Ong's job is to categorize boxes of mysterious artifacts, as the government doesn't know what to do with the artifacts. Unfortunately, Jameson, an English ghost, is after one of the boxes, which contains the [[Public Domain Artifact|Shroud of]] [[Jesus|Turin]]. Ong and company have to stop Jameson before he enacts his fiendish plan to resurrect a giant space eel.
Line 36:
* [[Healing Potion]]: The folks at Creature Tech realize that the Shroud of Turin is the real deal when the blood on the shroud heals the injuries of anyone who touches it.
* [[Horse of a Different Color]]: The giant space eel even has a saddle on its back. {{spoiler|When Jameson tries to destroy Turlock with the eel, Ong foils him by finding and resurrecting the eel's original rider, who's able to convince the eel to immediately ditch Jameson.}}
* [[If Jesus, Then Aliens]]: Very pointedly avoided. Mike Ong has no difficulty accepting the existence of the paranormal artifacts he's cataloging while rejecting Christianity. Even when he realizes that the Shroud of Turin is the real
** On the other hand, Pastor Ong was driven by the strange things he studied to turn to religion, so he plays the inversion straight: If aliens, then Jesus. He also objects that the Shroud of Turin can't be what it seems, since having conclusive ''evidence'' of Jesus' divinity would deprive people of the right to ''choose'' whether to believe in Christ.
** Michael does convert eventually, but only upon witnessing {{spoiler|the death of an alien Christ analogue on another planet. If alien Jesus, then human Jesus}}.
** It's probably safe to say this trope drives the plot of
* [[Kiss of Life]]: A rather bizarre example with Blue. Since he's a mantis, they have to blow air into his spiracles rather than giving mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.
* [[Lampshade Hanging]]:

* [[Meta Guy]]: Jameson spends most of his non-Turlock-destroying time making [[Incredibly Lame Pun
* [[Mix and Match Critter]]: Jameson mixes a cat and a dead bat to create:

Line 67:
* [[Raising the Steaks]]: The steak is very happy to be alive and goes off to "find himself" but then gets hit by a truck. Which leads to the immortal gem:

* [[Red Right Hand]]: Jameson gained demon powers by trading his hand for Hellcat's. Among other things, it prevents his soul going to Hell for his sins {{spoiler|until Dr. Ong wises up and cuts it off.}}
* [[Secret Government Warehouse]]: Creature Tech, although it fails in the "secret" part.
