This time around, baddie the Hood is producing a movie called Martian
Invasion to ... well, to create an emergency, call International
Rescue's Thunderbirds onto the scene, disenabling their
no-photograph-gadgets, and then film them in action. However, when the
Hood is already fleeing the scene in an old-fashioned biplane, the film of
the Thunderbirds in hand, International Rescue discovers his evil scheme
and they hunt him down until his plane crashes into the mansion of his
employer, destroying the films but leaving the Hood unscathed -
miraculously. Despite the very promising title, this is a very
weak episode with very little in terms of action and effects and an
extremely childish and way too straight-forward story. Not worth your
time.
