The story
On Guy Fawkes Night, trainee nurse Samantha Adams is mugged and violently attacked by a gang of teenage hoodlums from South London: Pest, Dennis, Jerome, Biggz and leader Moses.
Hoping to gain fame and fortune, they take the dead animal to their acquaintance, cannabis dealer Ron and his boss Hi-Hatz, a local gang leader, who instead recruits Moses to work for him.
The gang try to flee and Biggz hides in a recycling bin, though he is later saved by a pair of their young neighbours who manage to kill the alien.
