Klorophyll,
Let's examine your story for a bit.
"Earlier today, the alien announced that he reached the absolute best explanation of all observable phenomena in the universe, he even proved that his Theory of Everything cannot be improved any further."
This is an alien who spends a great deal of time thinking. He's in his own head space quite a bit.
"Our same alien asked his wife this night to make dinner for him, as his research work is taking all of his waking time. She wasn't there when he returned home."
One might conclude that his wife is imagined or maybe they divorced long ago. Perhaps he comes home every night expecting a meal from his imagined wife or from a wife he no longer has.
"Feeling completely exhausted, he fell asleep for some minutes, woke up and went for his long-awaited meal."
At this point, we might conclude that he's still asleep and everything from this point on is a dream. He is exhausted and therefore would probably sleep for more than some minutes.
"It appears one of his two kids mercilessly swallowed it. After he confronted them, they simply said : any formal proof that we ate your dinner, sir ?"
Now this is point where we might dig up some evidence for him still being asleep. Duality is a common theme in dreams. Things come in pairs. This story doesn't need two children. Why two ? Why not more than two ? Why any children at all ? The children represent what he wanted in his life, but couldn't attain. He either never had a wife or maybe the wife left with his two children. The missing dinner represents something missing in his life. Something taken away or something he never had in the first place.
It is my conclusion that this alien is very lonely and despite how intelligent it is, it cannot solve that one elusive puzzle.
How does one start or maintain a successful relationship ?
