Chances are pretty good that there will be further ramifications from that experience, but we shall see.Īs one would have imagined, the event of Paul’s cocooning and Sue’s bringing him back to health was a healing balm for their contentious relationship. Campion and the rest of the kidnapped mithraic kids are there to cheer on his recovery, and he tells them that the experience of being in the cocoon felt like hypersleep. It turns out this sea creature is the perfect host for the perfect leech that they need, and once laid low with the use of a special gas chucked at it, Sue removes a few leeches from its body, takes them back, and places them on Paul’s cocoon, and we see him completely healed in a day’s time. For that, she, with the help of Campion and his slingshot, has to trek to the acid water and battle the sea creature that lives there. She recovers pretty quickly from this event, which would have immediately made me 51/50 myself, and learns that these leeches have medicinal properties, but they’re not the exact type of leech that would be most effective in possibly healing Paul. Paul’s cocoon is now crawling with leeches, and when she puts on a protective suit and face shield to go in and take a look, naturally one of the leeches is on the inside of her face shield, ready and eager to creepy crawl all over her damn face. Sue takes a brief slumber in her lab and wakes up to a real shocker. And really, she doesn’t come across much different than any number of Asperger’s adjacent people you, or I, come in contact with on any given day. It’s endlessly entertaining to watch Mother try her increasing humanity on for size. Mother, who has formed a bond with Sue and is standing by to help, seems initially excited by the idea of Paul morphing into a snake, which Sue’s tests point toward being a possibility, but dials it back down when Sue shoots her a look. A disgusting warty cocoon has formed over Paul that tests indicate will dissolve his human form in a matter of 24 hours. Paul, the holier-than-thou kidnapped son of Marcus and Sue, was turned into a bumpy mess in the last episode after unknowingly transporting his mouse, made into a secret viral weapon by the Trust, into Marcus’s camp, otherwise referred to as “the Church.” This episode opens with Sue hard at work to find a method to heal the boy, who she still cares for, and views as a son of sorts, even though he’s rejected her time and time again for being an atheist. This episode featured a great deal of the latter. In addition to `Have Rocket, Will Travel', there was `The 30-Foot Bride of Candy Rock', `The Absent Minded Professor', `Visit to a Small Planet', `Son of Flubber', `Invasion of the Star Creatures', `The Three Stooges in Orbit', and several others.A good indicator of the level of involvement Ridley Scott had in a project is the number of scenes that feature something horrific bursting out of someone’s chest and/or crawling on their face. Comedy science fiction was an active sub-genre during the late 1950's/early 1960s. The Stoogemania version of Venus may lack the gorgeous women which Abbott & Costello's trip gave us, but it does have a talking unicorn, a futuristic car, a giant fire-breathing tarantula, and three evil Venusian Stooge look-a-likes who follow the boys back to Earth. Abbott & Costello had already done it in 1953, even though the title of their film claims they go to Mars. Big budget science fiction films were out of fashion by 1959, so Columbia Pictures didn't invest much in this one about three knuckleheads who accidentally rocket themselves to Venus.

Even non-Stooge fans will be mildly amused by this modest little sci-fi comedy - which, along with the TV reruns of their feature shorts, resurrected the careers of the famous trio just when it seemed they would be put out to pasture.
