      puts on a fourth, solar-system scale tin-foil hat The Taelons from Earth: Final Conflict are actually using their skrill to puppeteer Talosiankind into puppeteering Vulcankind into puppeteering humankind to remotely fulfill their agendum, as of 3 years ago when they came. Among this pupeteering chaos, William Boone is searching for the truth… until he gets killed off, upon which weird half-human alien baby who instantly grows into an adult, who I think then searches for the truth? I don’t know much after that - masochism can only get you so far in that series before you turn it off.

        I can tell you copy and pasted part of my comment because I am possibly the biggest stickler in the world for grammatically-correct-but-still-parsable unusual singular and plural forms of nouns in my formal-ish writing, in this case “agendum”.
