Comic #2742

1 Young Adam: So we're sitting here with a real Martian flying saucer, but stymied by not being able to open it and get in.
2 Young Jamie: Look around. There must be something here we can open it with.
3 {they look}
4 Young Adam: Nope, no explosives at all. All I found was this ring with a weird looking key on it.

I was going to have it be a remote control radio keyless entry gizmo, but I couldn't think of a succinct way to say that. Nor a way to represent it with a Lego piece that Adam could hold in his hand so that you could recognise immediately what it was. What's more, they didn't have those in 1947 anyway.
