Extraterrestrial Intent

[BigSoonerFan]

A question came up at work while discussing how good many of the kids movies are now, with many jokes and quips for adults. If you haven't seen it, Madagascar has a good line in it where the lemurs are panicking at the danger of the fossa. One lemur holds up a book titled 'To Serve Lemurs' and screams "It's a cookbook. It's a cookbook", in honor of the great Twilight Zone episode based on the book 'To Serve Humans'. Besides the fact that no one I talked to at work (mostly IT people who know almost everything about today's movies and gadgets) had any idea of the reference, the discussion that followed involved what the potential intent of extraterrestrials would be.

So, if ET came to visit us on Earth (if they haven't already), would he have us for dinner, treat us as pets or treat us as somewhat comparable intelligent beings (or something else)?
