Unfortunately, the oppressive alien overlords find out that Jack is not human and imprison him to question his species.
 
Fortunately, Jack can answer their questions.
 
Unfortunately, the alien race does not like Jack's answers.
 
Fortunately, they found his answers amusing and decided to keep him as a pet.
 
Unfortunately, the aliens turn out to be pretty neglectful pet owners.
 
Fortunately, Jack could take care of himself.
 
Unfortunately, he couldn't take care of the other hostile human-eating animals that the aliens had

Fortunately, the animals weren't hungry at the moment, so Jack was safe for now.
