Hakan is believed by the neighbours to be a paedophile and Mrs Clerihew saves his [[cat]] from being stoned to [[death]] by the local children, but a man nicknamed [[Mr Penis-Implant]] by Ng accuses him of framing them and of assaulting a child. The mob, whose [[hatred]] Orr can feel, kick Hakan and [[policeman (Aliens Next Door)|a policeman]] neglects to help him, refusing to protect him or properly deny that he is a sex offender. Ng and Orr offer to save Hakan, whose research into influencing people through environmental changes has been used as the basis for the cul-de-sac as part of a plan to kill him, but Mrs Clerihew blames them for the neighbours' actions and for the leaflets she gave them. | Hakan is believed by the neighbours to be a paedophile and Mrs Clerihew saves his [[cat]] from being stoned to [[death]] by the local children, but a man nicknamed [[Mr Penis-Implant]] by Ng accuses him of framing them and of assaulting a child.
