1005: Blood Waters of Dr. Z Movie: See, now the movie apparently stars Dr. Z, but he is never referred to that in the movie. A mad scientist who lives in Florida, decides to turn himself into a giant man-fish so he can lead an army of fish against those who wronged him. Then he checks his "to do" wheel for his crimes. In the end, everyone is either dead or dying. Opening: Crow takes up chewing tobacco, spitting big gooey wads of it into an array of pop cans -- and then, to our horror, into Mike's shoe. Host Segment 1: Servo accidentally drinks out of Crow's pop cans full of tobacco-ey spittle. Down in the castle, Pearl performs an experiment in withholding love to the SOL. Servo and Mike feel no difference, but Crow panics until they get back the symbols of her love--lemon-flavored gin, hot pads, a pawn shop receipt for a shotgun, etc . Host Segment 2: Crow, hiding in the rafters, taunts and threatens Mike a la Dr. Z's voiceover monologue. Mike, trying to polish his shoes, is mostly annoyed. Crow continues until he realizes he's stuck in the bulkhead, then he goes back to the Dr. Z voice until he asks mike to get him down. Mike takes a squeegie to him and then of course, as per tradition, Crow falls down. Host Segment 3: Inspired by the fishing scenes in the movie, Mike and the 'bots orbit over Bass Lake, trying to catch some sunnies. Nice day for it, after all. Mike catches one and reels him waaaaaay up from Earth. Unfortunately, the fish freezes in the upper atmosphere and goes through explosive decompression. Gotta throw 'im back, yah. Yer gonna see dat. Host Segment 4: Disappointed by the movie's teasing shots of women starting to take off clothes and then not doing it, Servo and Crow try to convince a skeptical Mike that any movie scene is better off with nudity. To demonstrate, they enlist Brain Guy and Bobo into performing a scene from Glengarry Glen Ross, starkers. Needless to say, it does not make their case. End: Taking a cue from Dr. Z's neat, portable ZaAt cases, Servo and Crow show Mike a variety of handy plastic food carrying cases, in just the right sizes and shapes. They explain it to him long, long after he's gotten the point. Down in Castle Forrester, Pearl has invented a Mer-Monkey, using a giant grouper, a Sawzall, and a Bobo. Seeing that Bobo now attracts lonely rugged sailor men, she decides she will become half-grouper herself, enter mermaidenhood, and get some old salt action. Stinger: "Sargassum! The weed of deceit!"
