Wait.
Is this a hypothetical question or do I really need to save humanity while on my lunch break?

Take them to see The Revenant.

i posted this a bit under two hours ago. so now you have about 22 hours to make the argument.
Dang, no pressure there.
I'm going with a casino blitz; we'll throw the house at them.
We'll start with a bikini clad Kate Upton delivering a plate of warm brownies.
That should buy us an extra 15 minutes of survival.2 -
Offer him some sweet potato pie, if he doesn't like it then we're going to war.1

Would you settle for a plate of crumbs as an offering?
I'm sure that I would polish off the pie enroute to the mothership.1 -

you mean discount Christian Bale?
I won't lie, I don't know what you're referencing but Noah Wyle is bomb.3 -

just in the similarity of their appearance:
Christian Bale, of course, being the more attractive and talented of the two.
If either one of those two *kitten* sticks walked onto my spaceship, I would nuke the entire planet in a nanosecond.1 -
I don't think humanity is really worth saving at this point! But i would try to show him the sunset in santorini island over a good bottle of wine with the right company!1

Gasp!!! I won't argue on Christian Bale, but The Librarian is the best!3 -

OK, well, we're talking alien overlords here though. Specifically in OP's given circumstance, surely you can see that Tom Mason would be Earth's only chance at survival. Well....also Jean Luc. And if the overlords are female then Riker.2 -
This is clearly a job for Chuck Norris.1

I would tell him, "Knowone messes with the Mother Monster, & her babies and gets away with it!"

I would have the aliens watch C-SPAN for a couple of hours. That should be enough to change their opinion that we are in danger of coming together as a species to somehow expand our universal presence.2

So I would start out by nicely asking for mercy. The alien described sounds somewhat open minded, just needs to be swayed. They have already seen enough of the earth to have come to the conclusion that intervening is a necessity so I don’t really know what else I could show them, to prove that goodness is present in humanity too.
If politely asking for another chance didn’t work, I would suggest that it may be in the aliens best interest to not eradicate humans, but to enslave the worst of the worst offenders, for whatever purposes they see fit, and then let the rest have a chance to be better. The "slaves" are still safe, just in a controlled situation now. The aliens should then announce their presence and intentions to all of the humans left with free will (not the slaves).
Giving humanity another chance might solidify the aliens reputation in the Universe as being a fair leader.
I would suggest that if the aliens have the capabilities to destroy the human race or the Earth – what difference does it make to them whether they do it in 24 hours, or in the future if things get out of control (if/when humans gain the ability to mess up something else in the Universe besides the Earth). Keep a close watch on us. Give the “good” in humanity another chance…why not…the aliens have nothing to lose.3
