He's been normal his whole life-until a moment of temporary hilarity when he does a funny impression of their dictator, Loving Leader...and gets caught Now, Norbert's been arrested and banished to planet Zorquat 3 in the Orion Nebula, where kids who defy the rules roam free in the Astronuts camp. Norbert has been taught his whole life that different is wrong, but everyone at Astronuts is crazy, creative, and insane Norbert wants nothing more than to go back to earth where things are awful but at least they're familiar.
