Deadly Invasion
In control room at radar station behind Ski while Nelson watches, they
move to plotting table after Crane brings Nelson a warning from Pacific
Tracking Station. Is told to take sub up to 90 ft. Chip goes over to
helm and gives orders "10 degree up bubble, come to 90 ft."
Chip watches with Crane and Nelson as Sharkey brings one of the objects
that penetrated Seaview's hull. They all move back as it opens and gives
off a strange gas. All fall down. All pick themselves up. Chip is
holding a crewman who has a possible concussion and has "Marco" and
"Ron" take him to Sick Bay.
Lee gives Chip the conn and heads off with Nelson
who is taking the object to the lab for examination. Patterson calls to
CR to report busted steam pipe in Engine Room and that it will take
about 15 minutes to repair. Chip tells him to let him know when they are
through.
Chip gets panicked call from Patterson that gets cut off. He sends a DCP
down to investigate.
Cut back to CR after Lee and Nelson have examined the spaceship, Lee and
Chip are at the plotting table when Nelson calls and says to send the
alien object to the General via the Flying Sub. Lee orders Chip to
prepare the FS for immediate launch. Chip goes over to hatch.
The FS is shown launching, then cut to Chip coming out of the hatchway
that leads down to the FS? Must be some sort of short passage way,
not a direct link up?
Sharkey calls and they go to the computer where it is printing out data at
an unreal rate and they can't shut it down. Lee calls Nelson but gets no
response.
Sends Chip off to see what's wrong. Chip rushes to
Nelson's cabin only to find the door is slightly open. Finds Nelson on
floor, asks if he's hurt and helps him sit up. Nelson says he's just
stunned. Before Chip can reply, the lights flicker and Seaview rock 'n
rolls. Nelson asks what's going on and Chip replies all sorts of weird
things. Harry calls the CR but Lee can't tell him much more than the
controls are acting up. Nelson and Chip head off to CR.
Seaview is headed towards rocks (yes, it's that SAME rock formation
again!) and the controls won't respond. Chip and Nelson come down the
spiral stairs just in time to take part in yet another rock 'n roll
session. They all prepare for collision. Nelson calls Engine Room to cut
power. They settle on the bottom and Lee asks Nelson why the frozen
controls and Harry replies that it must be the electrical beings from
the miniature spaceships. Chip asks if they'll remain inactive with the
power off. Nelson replies, possibly. Crush depth is 3600 ft??? NOT! :P
They turn the power back on and head back to cruising depth.
The command trio heads for the plotting table. Lee asks what the
electrical entities want. Nelson says probably SATO 6. Chip replies that
makes sense as they'd have control of atomic power and thus the world.
Nelson says that he'll take a combat team to SATO 6 when the FS returns
so that he can engage the station's self destruct. Lee reminds him that
it could easily go the other way in which case Nelson tells him to
destroy it with nuclear torpedoes. Nelson heads back to his cabin while
Chip and Lee exchange worried looks.
Very very silly big flashy thing to let Seaview know if
they should fire torpedoes. *snerk*
As Nelson is confronted again by the bad guy, the signal to blow up the
installation is sent. Chip says that perhaps it got triggered by mistake
and the admiral would send a countermand. Lee replies that they have a
direct order...to destroy SATO 6 with nuclear torpedoes. Chip says, "And
kill the admiral?" Ski reports to CR that torpedoes are ready for
firing.
Lee and Chip look grimly at each other and Lee orders them fired.
An explosion rocks the boat and Chip looks at his watch, saying that
they exploded prematurely. Pat reports that they've lost control. Chip
says to Lee, you know where our course will take us. Lee replies,
straight to SATO 6.
The aliens bring the Seaview right to the base. Chip and Lee head over
to the periscope as the sub has surfaced. Lee says they're now inside
the SATO airlock. Chip replies that it can't be! Lee orders combat team
three to the CR room on the double. He and Chip head over to the weapons
locker where they pass out weapons to the team. Lee also takes a weapon.
Chip shuts the locker then calls out to Lee who turns. Chip hands him
the plans for SATO 6.
Once again, Chip is left commanding the boat. :)
Lee heads back to Seaview to get the stuff from "locker B" that Nelson
requested. As Lee and Chip head to the reactor room Chip is asking Lee
why locker B as Nelson knows there are no suit or gloves in there? They
open the locker to find radiation guns. Lee tells Chip that the capsule
in the lab responded to radiation. Chip tells Lee that the capsule sent
to the General also responded to radiation.
Lee unscrews a cylinder from one gun. Chip asks why and
Lee responds that he'd going to fill it to full capacity with radiation.
At least this time, Lee gets behind a screen and uses gloves to handle
the rods. But Chip is right beside the rods with no protection and
places the cylinders on top of rod housing, saying that the cylinders
haven't been tested yet at full capacity.
Lee pulls out the rods and drops them on the floor. Chip says they've
only used this reactor to recharge portable atomic engines, never used
it to load weapons before. Chip hands the gloved Lee the cylinders. Lee
sticks them in the rod chambers and Chip turns some switches to charge
them. Chip then cuts off switch. Lee takes each cylinder out of the
chamber and wipes it down before handing it to Chip who attaches it back
to gun. As they reattach both Chip asks what Lee thinks will happen when
they fire the guns. Lee says if they're still alive after they fire,
he'll let him know. LEE LEAVES THE RODS OUT OF THE REACTOR!!! :PPPP
This time Chip gets to go along to zap baddies!! :::happy dancing::: He
and Lee run across their frozen crewmen and exchange looks. hehehe. Bad
guy shows up and Lee fires gun. Alien blows up in a shower of sparks.
Lee and Chip pause a moment outside the door to the SATO control room
and exchange nods. They rush the control room only to get knocked down
by bad guys. They are disarmed and slowly pull themselves to their feet.
Scene cuts to commercial break to allow for stunt
doubles to step in. :::snicker::: They again rush the bad guys and
wrestle for the guns. Stuntman version of Chip gets tossed by bad guy,
but uses his feet to kick the bad guy away. It is definitely stunt
doubles for ALL the boys except Nelson this time. Trust me, I can tell
when it's not the REAL Chip. ;) Then cut back to the real
Chip getting tossed to one side. Bad guy comes after him but Lee jumps
on baddie's back. Nelson tosses the Garrity creature into his own homing
device and the alien blows up. All aliens disappear and the Seaview boys
look around and head back to da boat.
