Would you Adam and Eve it? Cody and Teddy bailed out of the car before it crashed. The ingenuity of these story tellers is astonishing. Cody jumps from a car before it crashes, Cody jumps from a plane before it crashes, Cody AND Ted jump from a car before it crashes – there is a pattern but you have to look very closely to see it.

Meanwhile, back at Krog’s cave, the henchmen hand over the stolen money. Their gothic moon man employer is delighted.

But wait! A new plot twist is probably about to happen. Retick – king of the moon men – is on the radio and demanding Krog’s attention. He has a new scheme. Fiendish no doubt.

Fiendish indeed! He wants Krog to set off an atomic device in a volcanic crater because that would disrupt Earth’s weather and thus impede transportation and shit. By now, the "actor" playing Retick is just reading it off a cue card.

Krog orders that the atomic bomb be dropped from a chartered plane at once. He gets the ATOMIC BOMB out of a CARDBOARD BOX under his table and hands it over to the hoodlums.

We cut to the hoodlums in the same plane that crashed a few weeks ago, with the ATOMIC BOMB taped to the underside of the wing.

They drop it into the volcano and it explodes in an awesomely atomic way.

The pyro boys must’ve been paid overtime for they give us ten or twenty really good atomic explosions for the price of one. Either that or the entire budget was spent on this chapter to try and WAKE THE AUDIENCE UP.

The papers cover the story with sensible reserve.

Here is a storm.

Here is a flood.

Thank goodness – the excitement has passed and the flood is receding.

Cody reports that he found the airport which chartered the plane to the henchmen who dropped the atomic bomb into the volcano and caused all the problems which came and went inside thirty seconds. Cody has a lead – a book of matches borrowed by the man at the airport from one of the hoodlums has identified a café where they had been at some point.

Cody and Ted (leaving Joan behind because she has a uterus) quickly find the café and – in the hope that the baddies are regular customers – pay them a visit. Inside they find a nasal palaeontologist, a dumb actor, a sarcastic number cruncher, a spoilt Jewish girl, a neat freak and a kooky hippy chick.

No they don’t – that would run the risk of being entertaining. Instead they find a man who knows the two men by sight but doesn’t know who they are or where they live.

Cor blimey, Guv! The hoodlums only go and show up as Cody and Ted are leaving.

A fight breaks out.

The hoodlums win and Ted is taken hostage.

The friendly café owner helps Cody up. Commando Cody – a man who can be punched into unconsciousness but without his hat falling off.

Ted seizes his change and bails from the car.

He gets to a phone and rings Cody.

He gives Cody his location and where the hoodlums were going. Cody puts on his rocket suit and prepares to fly.

Cody finds them amongst the hills and bushes. They spot him and get their weapons out.

After another gun battle in which no one gets killed, the bad guys make a run for it. The senior hoodlum tells his junior colleague to act as a Judas goat. He stands by the cliff edge and waits for Cody. Cody finds him and makes a citizen’s arrest. But the senior henchman is hiding behind some rocks. He emerges holding a big stone.

He throws it at Cody, hitting him on the shoulder and sending him flying off the edge of the cliff.

Unless Commando Cody managed to bail out of his clothes shortly before they fell, he’s as dead as a man falling from a great height while wearing a rocket pack can be.

They’re just stringing words together now.
