The Tyrant

No one will play with Captain Murphy. Bored and dejected, he starts a pirate radio station using Sealab's emergency radio beacon. As "Howling Mad" Murphy, his obnoxious humor (and a soundtrack by The Knaves) catapults him to stardom. But the FCC is closing in on his signal -- and this time, it's personal.

A news item about Django, the little monkey whose brain was transplanted into a robot body, plunges the crew into a lengthy debate on whether or not they would allow their brains to be put in robot bodies. Meanwhile, Sealab is in imminent danger of imploding, and Dr. Quinn is the only one on board that seems to care.

Captain Murphy is horrified to discover that his beloved HappyCake Oven ("Makes real cupcakes!") is missing from Sealab. He orders his reluctant crew to search for it in a submersible, where a giant, killer squid attacks them. Meanwhile, Sparks continues his fiendish quest for world domination.

Debbie decides she wants to have a baby -- right now. So she interviews each male crew member to see who would make the best father for her child. The men, of course, turn it into a childish competition. In the meantime, Stormy almost learns a valuable lesson in race relations but doesn't quite.

A bloodthirsty, killer alien has boarded Sealab and trapped the entire crew. His shimmering form is seemingly everywhere, rending flesh from human bones as the survivors cower on the bridge. Once again, it's up to the brave Dr. Quinn -- with some help from Old Gus and Dolphin Boy -- to save the day.

After a huge explosion destroys Sealab, Stormy and Dr. Quinn are mysteriously transported 15 minutes into the past, which puts them in a position to save Sealab from being destroyed in the first place. But Captain Murphy imprisons them. And so Sealab is destroyed by another massive explosion, and the vicious cycle continues.

Griffin, a terminally ill orphan from the Final Request Foundation, pays a visit to Sealab and captures Marco's heart. Griffin, however, may not be as sweet as he appears. Captain Murphy, fearing an outbreak of bubonic plague, basically freaks out as Sparks hatches a plan to sell Griff's organs to an Irishman.

Dr. Quinn -- electrocuted through an act of profound stupidity by Stormy -- has a series of random and bizarre hallucinations, which bring to mind everything from "The Incredible Mr. Limpet" to "Apocalypse Now."

Captain Murphy finds himself trapped under the monolithic "Bebop Cola" machine -- for a year. During that time, he loses all of his teeth, battles an evil robot and has poignant flashbacks to his childhood as the son of a hard-drinking carny. But, unfortunately, he also becomes addicted to scorpion venom.

Having nothing better to do, Murphy hires a high-priced feng shui master to "harmonize" Sealab. But, as the renovations run into the millions, Quinn suspects that "Master Loo" may not be the man Murphy thinks he is. We can't tell you the ending, but you'd better get ready for the ultimate extreme karate smackdown! Hi-yah!
