Wayne Thompson is a deputy marshal in Little Creek, New Mexico. His Grandfather took care of him when he was young.
During the events of The Return (1980) played by Zachary Vincent and Jan-Michael Vincent
A spaceship flies over the Earth as Wayne and his Grandfather walk towards a cafe in Little Creek, New Mexico. Grandfather tells Wayne to wait outside and as Wayne is standing outside, a car driven by Dr. Kramer drives up to the gas station and parks. Jennifer gets outside of her car and the spaceship flies over her and Wayne. Two lights come towards Wayne and Jennifer and then a beam and gas falls upon them, engulfing them in the gas and showing them something from space. The spaceship then flies away. Jennifer goes back inside of her car and Dr. Kramer’s car drives away while Wayne runs inside the cafe and a group of Townspeople including Grandfather, come outside and Wayne points to the sky. Grandfather tells Wayne he doesn’t see anything and then goes back inside the cafe with the others.
Twenty-five years later, Wayne is drinking beer in his patrol vehicle when a car driven by Eddie and with Darren and a woman inside of it speeds past while also swerving along the road. Eddie crashes his car through the entryway of his father Walt’s property and stops. Wayne walks up and knocks on Eddie’s window and Eddie lowers it and spits beer on Wayne who finally pulls his gun out when Eddie refuses to get out of his car. Darren warns Wayne not to do anything that might upset Walt and Wayne shoots Eddie’s car radio. Niles Buchanan drives up and Darren tells him Wayne went crazy. Niles smooths things over and he and Wayne leave. At the bar, Lee Ann pours Wayne a drink and Niles sends Wayne out to check on Jennifer’s crash. Wayne drives up drinking a beer and disconnects Jennifer’s horn which has been going off since she crashed. She tells him about a Dog that attacked her and he gives her the direction to the only motel in town and tells her to see him in the morning. As Niles is telling Wayne a story of Lee Ann short changing him on bacon, Jennifer walks in and Wayne walks with her and she tells him about the SSR Institute. As Jennifer is walking in town she sees a Girl in the back of a station wagon. She sees Wayne staring at her and they both look into the sky.
Wayne orders a six pack of beer from Lee Ann and she asks him about the local cattle mutilations she heard about. After he gives her a hard time, Lee Ann throws a rag at him which lands on the plate of Cafe Patron. Wayne sees Jennifer and she tells him about the Dog attack and while they are talking, Dr. Kramer shows up and Wayne gets up and leaves. Wayne, Walt, Eddie and Darren walk up and Walt criticizes Wayne for not finding out what is mutilating his cattle. Walt asks Jennifer what could have mutilated his cattle, and she tells him she doesn't know. While Niles is showing Wayne his technique of pouring beer on a donut, they see the body of Alan and notice he was mutilated like the cattle. As Jennifer is about to be sexually assaulted by Eddie, Wayne shows up and starts punching and slapping Eddie and Darren. Walt walks up with Niles and Walt apologizes to Jennifer for what Eddie did, but also warns her not to come on his property again after accusing her of mutilating his cattle. Wayne takes Jennifer to his house and she looks through his library of books which are mostly about space and Science Fiction. She tells him about her encounter with a UFO when she was young and he tells her, he saw the same thing and she realizes it was Wayne that saw it with her when they were young. The next morning, Jennifer and Wayne tell each other they think they were meant to come together again.
Wayne and Jennifer go to where she placed one of her devices and finds it destroyed and they find another dead cow. Eddie sees them and starts shooting at them and Wayne fires back and Eddie falls off of his horse and lands in the belly of another dead cow. Wayne and Jennifer go and tell Niles what happened and Niles tells him Federal Agent 1 and Federal Agent 2 came back and were asking questions. The Motel Manager sees Jennifer with Wayne and tells her Dr. Kramer has been looking for her. The Prospector drives up in Niles' vehicle and attacks Wayne and Jennifer. The Motel Manager calls the police and The Prospector drives away with Jennifer. Homer drives up along with Federal Agent 1 and Federal Agent 2 and Federal Agent 1 points his weapon at Wayne, who punches him and runs away. The Town Drunk is pushed aside by Wayne who then jumps into a truck owned by Truck Driver and tells him to drive away. Federal Agent 2 rams the truck, but is stunned in the process and Wayne manages to get away. Wayne steals a motorcycle from Pischki Cycles and rides away as Federal Agent 1 shoots at him. Wayne rides up to the shack and is attacked by the Dog, which he hits with a beer bottle and it runs away. He rides the motorcycle through the door leading to the cave and while The Prospector is distracted, Jennifer hits him in the face with the glowing weapon. She tells Wayne that the aliens didn't want The Prospector to kill anyone and The Prospector is sucked through the portal. Jennifer and Wayne then step inside of the portal and fly away. They end up in a white room and are taken away by the spaceship. Wayne and Jennifer are then transported back to Earth and the spaceship leaves and they hold each other and stare into the night sky.
