Crepes have been disappearing! Who’s the thief? Lily and the Ghost find out, that it’s the Crepe-Muncher, who needs the energy to return to outer space. Well, thank goodness Lily knows where to get loads of crepes. The Crepe-Muncher returns home, but she is certain she will return to Earth one day. While it is true that she had never had better crepes than on Earth, most of all she wants to see Lily and the Ghost again.
