Demon of the Water Planet
The crew of the Outlaw star are hired by an old outlaw. He wants them to help him recover a treasure worth 5 million. Gene and Jim talk it over before deciding to do it. The treasure is located on Heifong VII, the water planet.
The Old Man goes with them and tells them more while they are on their way to Heifong VII. There is a ship filled with 15 tons Dragonite, one of the rarest, most valuable substances in the galaxy. The catch is that the Dragonite is guarded by local monster like sea creatures. The Old Man has a plan. They distract the creatures and then go for the treasure. They think they have enough to time but the distraction doesn't keep the creatures occupied as long as they hoped it would.
An even bigger creature shows up. It grabs the Outlaw Star and tears off two of the grappler arms. The Old Man sacrifices himself to destroy the creature. The Outlaw Star returns home. The treasure turns out not to be as valuable as they thought it was. They get just enough money from selling it to fix up the Outlaw Star.
The intro narration talks about the importance of Dragonite to the Munchausen Drive.
This wasn't a bad episode. I would even to say it was pretty good. It wasn't outstanding but I've seen worse or episodes I liked less in this show. I wasn't surprised when the Old Man sacrifice himself to save the others. It seemed in line with the feel of this episode.
