This reminds me of a Phil Dick short story. Aliens have been attacking and eating people on Earth spaceships! They seem to operate some kind of mind control once you get close enough to an alien ship, the Earth folk on the ship just drive right up to the Aliens and pour tomato ketchup over themselves.
The technical guys back on Earth create an Alien Mind Control detector and send a guy out on a ship to find some aliens to test it. Sure enough he's zooming around and Bruurp! Bruurp! Bruuup!!! the Alien Mind Control detector starts flashing away and filling the ship with its hooting. However our hero is under... yes... Alien Mind Control and as far as he can tell the detector is reporting he is safe as he drives right up to the Aliens holding a bowl of salad.
