tonight i watched this episode and one from two weeks previous on season 3. Good time to watch back in 79 if you were a fan i guess. i saw the two opening story arcs and had to wonder, which one will be the dark one, and which one the love one? SO the first one was the actor from the burbs, (i think) was a scientist with a geeky taller than him assistant lady making a potient that is able to keep metal and stuff from rusting and all that. His fantasy is to make this Styrofoam like stuff without exploding a lab. I thought it was funny he used BOmbs as stuff that rusts real quick. Last i checked, we use them pretty quick. So labs provided to him blow up, he is always fine, which is odd cause a worker on his previously blown up lab was wearing bandages. So as i thought is this the dark story arc, i noticed his assistant seeming more tolerant of him blowing stuff up, last one he actually asked her to hide behind the counter. I realized this was the love one. It finally happened when the left the island. But before that happened, he got stupid and told people about his invention, leaving Russians to kidnap him but he was saved and everyone was after him, twisting news reports (what they do that??) and such. then Tattoo proved his invention was a dud and he was free from international torture and kidnapping.
THe other one where the grandmother, who came to the island with her grandson and talking to a fern plant turned out not to be the love episode as her deceased husband was a séance that said he would contact her after death ( like that episode of Stephen kings kingdom hospital i think it was called) but he never was able to or could contact her and she was loosing hope. So they have a séance and and "Clear their energy centers" and like the last episode with the mermaid i saw of this episode, they play the same music when she starts to glow as they did with a mermaid showing up. and it was a really cool scene as this Trudy Wiegle from Reno 911 character with a elderly mother are all astonished by whats going on (this must be before Trudy's mom died as shown on Reno 911) and the painting of the dead husband seems to have crappy 1970's special effects where teeth moving over his mouth make it look like he was talking. i was so happy. So then Rourke gives another experience for this woman to go in the dead world, and her grandson protests and crap happens but grandma comes back. Corny . Still loved this episode.
