The ace janitor Roger Wilco thought he'd seen the last of Sludge Vohaul. However, like every evil scientist is supposed to, Vohaul returns with an even meaner scheme. This time he intends to infest the planet Xenon with thousands of genetically engineered door-to-door life insurance salesmen. The last thing he wants is Roger messing things up, and so the brave janitor is captured and brought to the planet Labion to spend the rest of his days working in Vohaul's mines. Fortunately, the shuttle that takes him to the mines crashes, and Roger is the only survivor. He will have to survive the dangers of the jungle planet Labion, and eventually stop Vohaul from executing his mad plan.

What do you get when you mix a cowardly hero/janitor, overgrown apes, and an evil plot to destroy Xenon with life-insurance salesmen? Why, you get Space Quest 2: Vohaul's Revenge, the second game in the prestigious Space Quest series. It thrusts you into the position of the space janitor from the first game. Though the player can choose his or her own name, the default name is Roger Wilco. Apparently, Roger's glory from saving Xenon in the first game has since faded, and after numerous attempts to cash in on his glory, he has taken up a posting as a janitor on Xenon Orbital Station 4. A rather boring post for such a hero. Fortunately, things get a little spiced up for our hero, as he is soon kidnaped by an evil villain named (here's where the subtitle comes from) Sludge Vohaul. Never met him? If one will recall, the dying scientist onboard the Arcada in Space Quest 1 was named Slash Vohaul. Sludge, his evil deformed brother, is rather peeved at Roger for saving the day in Space Quest 1 and destroying his weapon of mass destruction, the Star Generator. He decides to take revenge on Roger Wilco and Roger's home planet of Xenon. The brave (brave meaning cowardly) janitor is sentenced to live out the rest of his life doing hard labor on the jungle planet of Labion, and Xenon is to meet a far more horrible fate - infestation by door-to-door life insurance salesmen! Through circumstances beyond his control, Roger manages to escape. Left alone on a backwater planet, he must find a way to escape and stop Vohaul's dastardly plan.
