Sounds like the alien believes that something happened that didn't actually happen.
1. He believes his wife made dinner.
Is there any evidence that dinner was made ?
2. He believes one or both children ate his dinner.
If the dinner was never made, then they couldn't eat a dinner that doesn't exist.
Solution - Call the wife and ask if she made dinner.
If she did, hook the kids up to a truth machine and ask what happened to the dinner.
If they don't know, then make your own damn dinner.
And feed your kids as well.
The other issue is that an alien of such higher intelligence and capability wouldn't need dinner. Sunlight would be enough to provide all his or her nutritional needs.
Alternatively, no need for a wife or children. Their life could be lived virtually.

Insanity - Doing the same thing over and over again, expecting a different result
