it was johnny rookiefingers in the back of the skyranger who has somehow gotten hold of the Blaster Bomb launcher and because an alien fired a plasma pistol past the hatch, missing everyone entirely, he does the only thing he can, and panicfires into the wall behind him.

who missed by miles with all three shots.
