First shown: 1/15/89.
Opening: Lacking the $30,000 they need to continue experimenting on Joel, the Mads sell his car to raise some short-term cash. Joel reveals that he had $30,000 hidden inside it. The Mads, furious, retaliate by sending him "the ANT movie!"
Host segment 1: Joel instructs Servo and Crow on Isaac Asimov's robotic laws. The Bots don't like them, and make up some laws of their own. Servo: "Never hollow out a robot and make a fort out of him."
Host segment 2: J&TB discuss the first thing they plan to do when they get to Earth. (Crow: "I'm going to kill Sandy Frank." Servo: "Well, that's a given.") Joel wants to turn off his water, which he accidentally left running.
Host segment 3: The crew of the SoL enjoy a game of "I Spy," which quickly and inexplicably degenerates into a performance of "Wipeout." Since he's the only one with working arms, Joel takes the drum solo. Mercifully, movie sign intervenes.
End: Joel programs Crow and Gypsy to recite a new robotic law. It takes a *really* long time to say, and the credits roll long before they're done.
Special Notes: This episode is the first to feature a non-Gamera movie (except KTMAs 1-3, which have not yet been found by the fans). A theater clip from this episode was included on the MST3K Scrapbook tape.
