It was difficult to make out, but there may have been a dead elephant on a fuzzy tv program.

Sort of. The aliens wear human skin but when they need to run, their legs bend backwards with a bone-breaking sound.

The main character nearly goes over the edge as he is targeted by an interplanetary conspiracy.

No, but to cover up the secrets the main character has found, a bad person in a position of power tells people that he isn’t well, or something to that effect.

The main character is sort of held for questioning twice but is either let go, or escapes.

Sort of. A scientist standing up for a wee hears a deep space broadcast from the other room and is so distracted he “goes” on his own shoes. Only the shoes are seen.

Presumably. A bird is sucked through some shutters by an alien vortex sphere. It is fairly tame and you don’t see its fate.
