Dr. Smith is transformed into an alien
juggernaut who ousts Major West and the Robinsons from the
Jupiter 2.
Story Summary
Don and the Robinsons find themselves powerless to stop an
armored Dr. Smith, now transformed into an alien juggernaut. As
the creature boards the grounded ship, they are forced to
abandon the Jupiter 2. Their only hope is that they can
come up with some plan in the time it is going to take the
creature to repair the ship and blast off.
On board, the Robot has been damaged and is unable to
fulfill its programming to protect the Robinson family. And,
inside the psyche of the alien, Dr. Smith is trying to find a
way to regain control its/his body.
Don finally realizes that Dr. Smith must have found the
mechanized armor in the pit he fell into (in
"Wake the Dead") and so John
lowers him down into the hole with a rope to search for more
technology. Don discovers the dead alien off whom Smith took the
armor. Buried in the dirt of the pit, he also finds a big
frakking gun.
