Legal intern met illegal alien (6,5,3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

little green man

'alien' is the definition.

'legal intern met illegal' is the wordplay.
'illegal' indicates an anagram (the letters ordered wrongly or 'illegally').
'legal'+'intern'+'met'='legalinternmet'
'legalinternmet' anagrammed gives 'LITTLE GREEN MAN'.
