The Three Stooges in Orbit Page #5

Synopsis: The Three Stooges, Moe, Larry, and Curly-Joe, are evicted from their hotel room and set out to find a new place to live while prepping for their new TV show. They end up settling at the home of the eccentric inventor, Professor Danforth. The professor is glad to have company in the house again. He is working on a new vehicle which he plans to sell to the military. Unfortunately, a spy from Mars is trying to steal it. When he tells the Stooges about the spy, they are of the opinion he has "been bending over those diagrams too long." But with their TV show in danger of cancellation, the professor says he has another invention guaranteed to save their show if they will help him safeguard his new vehicle. They soon discover the Professor may not be as crazy as he sounds when two real Martians hijack the vehicle, mount a laser cannon on it, and begin attacking the city. Now, the fate of the human race rests in the hands of (gulp) The Three Stooges.

how to make it move.

There's nothing like a hearty breakfast

to start the day off.

You know, we ought to humor

the professor...

...until he finishes that

cartoon gizmo.

-Yeah, you never know.

-Home cooking, home cooking.

Hey, get your hotcakes here!

Hey, fellas, the landlady!

Well, what can I say, fellas When

I heard the knocking, it rang a bell.

-Oh, it rang a bell

-Yeah, but I saved my hotcakes.

-Well, so you did.

-Yeah, they're mine. I baked them up--

-Oh, my, what happened

-Well, it was an accident, professor.

See, this is the work

of a birdbrained idiot.

Yeah, a birdbrained idi--

-Thank you.

-How about me

Yeah, and a mental midget.

Go ahead.

Look, Father, the mail!

The Army, the Navy and the Air Force.

I told you there'd be a scramble

for my machine.

The Army.

Professor Danforth. Dear sir,

your invention is most interesting...

...but we feel the submarine feature

makes it more suitable for the Navy.

-The Navy.

-The Navy.

The Navy feels the tank-tread

feature makes your device...

...more suitable for the Army.

Listen to this from the Air Force.

The airborne feature

of your unique vehicle...

...opens up interesting possibilities.

Accordingly, the Air Force

will accept your kind invitation...

...and send a representative,

Capt. Andrews...

...who will be pleased to witness

the tests that you propose.

Afterwards, if results warrant,

we will consider a demonstration...

-...of the full-scale vehicle.

-Oh, boy!

They're coming, they're coming!

I knew they wouldn't turn me down.

-Congratulations, professor.

-You sure put it over.

Thank you. You know, I stayed up

late last night testing the model...

...and everything worked fine.

Come, I'll show you.

Clean up this mess.

I'll clean it up when I'm ready.

-Oh, you will

-Yeah, when I'm ready.

-So

-So I'm ready!

Hello.

-I'm Capt. Andrews, Air Force.

-Won't you come in

Yes.

I'm Carol Danforth. I was hoping

you'd come-- My father was hoping....

Well, he's right over here.

The remarkable thing

about this model is that it operates...

...completely by remote control.

This is Capt. Andrews of the Air

Force. My father, Professor Danforth.

-And our guests Moe and Larry.

-How do you do, professor

-Are you making a mistake!

-I'm sorry, sir.

-That's a bigger mistake.

-No, no, no. I'm Professor Danforth.

Yes, excuse me, professor.

Well, here she is, captain.

What do you think of her

-Wonderful.

-When hard pressed by the enemy...

...it can take to the air, dash across

country or dive underwater.

As a matter of fact,

it even seeks out water.

First, I'll demonstrate

how it operates as a tank.

See that, captain It's gonna
