The extraterrestrial Larry, an alien, resided with a tribe located on the Forest Moon of Endor. During his childhood, he abandoned his dwelling, declaring that "a million munyips" wouldn't be sufficient to force his return. Approximately 3 ABY, several years subsequently, Larry made his way back, only to find that the entire population of his village had moved away in his absence.
"Home is Where the Shrieks Are" featured this particular group; it was the third installment of the second season of the animated TV show, Ewoks. Bob Carrau penned the script for the episode, which originally aired on September 20, 1986.
