00:00.000 --> 00:02.000
The Planet Man!

00:02.000 --> 00:26.000
The Planet Man!

00:26.000 --> 00:30.000
This is the fascinating story of Danso the Planet Man.

00:30.000 --> 00:33.000
Troubleshooter for the League of Planets Organization.

00:33.000 --> 00:37.000
The law enforcement body for peace and justice in the celestial world.

00:37.000 --> 00:46.000
Whose headquarters and center of operations are situated on the capital of all the planets, Planaria Rex.

00:46.000 --> 00:49.000
From Mercury to Pluto, wherever danger threatens the universe,

00:49.000 --> 00:56.000
you will find Danso the Planet Man fighting for fair play.

00:56.000 --> 01:04.000
In a moment, the Planet Man.

01:04.000 --> 01:16.000
Marsden of Mars from his hideout in the caverns has gained control of Planet Man's mind

01:16.000 --> 01:19.000
with the help of one of the ancient machines, the Hypno-Rex.

01:19.000 --> 01:23.000
Quall, his faithful follower, brought Danso to Marsden's hideout.

01:23.000 --> 01:28.000
But despite the hypnotic control, Danso refused to show Marsden how to use the Dimension Warper,

01:28.000 --> 01:31.000
the machine with which the paths of the planets could be changed.

01:31.000 --> 01:36.000
Meanwhile, slaps his suspicions aroused, he is checking Danso's room.

01:36.000 --> 01:41.000
Danso? Danso, are you awake? Danso, what's going on here?

01:41.000 --> 01:43.000
Wait, I'll switch on the light.

01:43.000 --> 01:47.000
He's gone. Maybe I should have watched the room.

01:47.000 --> 01:50.000
Whatever happened to him happened last night.

01:50.000 --> 01:52.000
Now I don't know where to look.

01:52.000 --> 01:57.000
Wait a minute, somebody's coming. Maybe it's Danso. Better put out the light.

01:57.000 --> 02:00.000
Danso? Danso, is that you?

02:00.000 --> 02:02.000
Who's there?

02:02.000 --> 02:05.000
Me, slaps on the foot on the light.

02:05.000 --> 02:07.000
What are you doing here in my room?

02:07.000 --> 02:09.000
I was just worried about you and I thought I'd look in.

02:09.000 --> 02:12.000
What's the matter with your face? It's all red, bleeding.

02:12.000 --> 02:14.000
I'm not worried about you.

02:14.000 --> 02:17.000
Why don't you cut this stuff out? We're buddies, remember?

02:17.000 --> 02:19.000
Of course it's my concern if somebody's hurt.

02:19.000 --> 02:22.000
Who did it, Sarge? I'll tear him apart.

02:22.000 --> 02:25.000
I've told you before, slaps, mind your own business.

02:25.000 --> 02:27.000
What has happened is none of your concern.

02:27.000 --> 02:28.000
But Danso, you...

02:28.000 --> 02:31.000
I mean what I say, slaps.

02:31.000 --> 02:35.000
I'm perfectly capable of taking care of myself.

02:35.000 --> 02:37.000
I neither need nor want your help.

02:37.000 --> 02:41.000
Okay, okay, I'll leave you alone, all right? All alone.

02:41.000 --> 02:44.000
I don't know what's going on here, but I'm fed up.

02:44.000 --> 02:47.000
Here, I try to help you, you treat me like I was your enemy or something.

02:47.000 --> 02:49.000
Okay, okay, I'm going.

02:49.000 --> 02:57.000
Hello?

02:57.000 --> 02:59.000
Slaps on Mars calling Judge Augustus.

02:59.000 --> 03:03.000
Slaps on Mars calling Judge Augustus on Planaria Rex.

03:03.000 --> 03:06.000
Come in, slaps. What's going on? What have you found out?

03:06.000 --> 03:09.000
I haven't found out anything, except that it's even worse than I thought.

03:09.000 --> 03:11.000
The dantro disappeared last night from his room.

03:11.000 --> 03:15.000
When he came back, his face was all cut and bleeding like somebody had plugged him.

03:15.000 --> 03:17.000
When I tried to find out who did it, he just brushed me off.

03:17.000 --> 03:20.000
Judge, I'm fed up with this. I hope you can figure out what's going on.

03:20.000 --> 03:24.000
Now, I like this guy a lot, but he certainly doesn't treat me like I was a friend of his.

03:24.000 --> 03:26.000
But are you sure he isn't pretending?

03:26.000 --> 03:30.000
Pretending? I don't know about him, but those marks on his face weren't no act.

03:30.000 --> 03:32.000
Do you know where he was?

03:32.000 --> 03:34.000
No, when I realized I'd better check, he was gone.

03:34.000 --> 03:38.000
As a matter of fact, he was on his way back. I don't know where he was.

03:38.000 --> 03:40.000
You think you can follow him as he goes again?

03:40.000 --> 03:43.000
Sure I can follow him. I'll stick to him like glue.

03:43.000 --> 03:47.000
Be careful, slaps. Nothing must happen to you.

03:47.000 --> 03:50.000
If you're right about Planet Man, you're the only one who can save him now.

03:50.000 --> 03:52.000
Watch him closely, but be careful.

03:52.000 --> 03:55.000
Okay, okay, I'll be careful. And remember, you be where I can reach you.

03:55.000 --> 03:59.000
I don't know how long I can get away to sneak on board the ship to use the space radio.

03:59.000 --> 04:01.000
Sooner or later, somebody will get wise.

04:01.000 --> 04:05.000
You'll be able to reach me at any time, night or day. Don't worry about that.

04:05.000 --> 04:09.000
Okay, I better get back now. I'll call you as soon as I know something.

04:17.000 --> 04:21.000
Last I'm telling you for the last time, mind your own business.

04:21.000 --> 04:24.000
I don't need your help and I don't want your help.

04:24.000 --> 04:27.000
Well, at least you're in a little better shape than you were last night. Where were you anyway?

04:27.000 --> 04:29.000
That's none of your affair.

04:29.000 --> 04:35.000
Okay, well, see you later. Maybe dinner will improve your disposition a little.

04:42.000 --> 04:45.000
You see, Quall, Slap gets nowhere.

04:45.000 --> 04:48.000
He can't understand why his friend, Dantro, has changed.

04:48.000 --> 04:51.000
He'll find out soon enough, say Quall.

04:51.000 --> 04:55.000
I still don't like it, Marston. I don't trust this Slap.

04:55.000 --> 04:59.000
I've known his kind before. They're never satisfied.

04:59.000 --> 05:02.000
Always they keep prying into things and making trouble.

05:02.000 --> 05:06.000
We have more important things to worry about than this flat, Quall.

05:06.000 --> 05:10.000
When you bring Planet Man here tonight, we shall not fail.

05:10.000 --> 05:15.000
But last night he would not obey your command. Why will it be different tonight?

05:15.000 --> 05:20.000
I have not used the full power of the Hypno-Ray machine, for I fear its effect upon the mind.

05:20.000 --> 05:25.000
It is a dangerous toy, Quall. With all its power brought to bear on the mind, it might destroy it.

05:25.000 --> 05:26.000
Tonight?

05:26.000 --> 05:32.000
Tonight I shall bend the Planet Man to my will, or I shall destroy him.

05:32.000 --> 05:35.000
He is no good to me unless I can make him show me how to use the Dimension Warper.

05:35.000 --> 05:40.000
If he will not do that, I don't care what happens to him.

05:40.000 --> 05:46.000
Yes, Quall, tonight Planet Man will yield, or I'll make him a mindless idiot less than a child.

05:46.000 --> 05:53.000
I can't waste time. I have a mission, and all who stand in my way must yield or suffer the consequences.

05:53.000 --> 05:57.000
Tonight then, Marston, soon it will be tonight.

05:57.000 --> 06:02.000
It can't be soon enough for me. It may be too late for Planet Man.

06:05.000 --> 06:07.000
Dantro apparently faces the real test soon.

06:07.000 --> 06:13.000
Will Marston succeed in winning over Dantro, or will he carry out his threat to destroy Dantro's mind?

06:13.000 --> 06:17.000
We'll be back in a moment, so level off.

06:30.000 --> 06:37.000
When we left Marston, he was determined to win over Dantro through the use of the Hypno Ray, or destroy Dantro's mental powers.

06:37.000 --> 06:41.000
We find Dantro now as he is about to leave flats and get some sleep.

06:41.000 --> 06:44.000
Well, good night, Dantro. Pleasant dreams.

06:44.000 --> 06:47.000
Dreams? Dreams?

06:47.000 --> 06:50.000
Oh, good night, Quall.

06:53.000 --> 06:58.000
I'll just hide in this corner here behind this curtain and see where Planet Man spends his night.

06:58.000 --> 07:12.000
I haven't figured on so much standing and walking. My feet are beginning to hurt again, and that's all I need now.

07:19.000 --> 07:23.000
There he goes. Now maybe we'll find out what's going on.

07:23.000 --> 07:28.000
Not so fast, old boy. Slept is right behind you.

07:28.000 --> 07:32.000
Planet Man, this way.

07:32.000 --> 07:36.000
Yes, Quall. I'll follow.

07:43.000 --> 07:47.000
This way, Planet Man. Into the tunnel quickly.

07:47.000 --> 07:49.000
Yes, Quall.

07:49.000 --> 07:54.000
Holy smokes, a tunnel. I begin to smell a rat, a big fat rat.

07:54.000 --> 08:01.000
Leaving the hunch wasn't so crazy after all. I wouldn't be a bit surprised if my old friend Marston is somewhere down there.

08:01.000 --> 08:04.000
Well, here I go.

08:13.000 --> 08:16.000
Good work, Quall. You weren't seen, were you?

08:16.000 --> 08:20.000
No, Marston, we saw no one, and no one saw us. I'm certain of that.

08:20.000 --> 08:23.000
Fine. Dantro, come here.

08:23.000 --> 08:24.000
Yes, Marston.

08:24.000 --> 08:27.000
Tonight, Dantro, you will tell me what I want to know.

08:27.000 --> 08:28.000
Yes, Marston.

08:28.000 --> 08:31.000
The machine. You will show me how to operate the machine.

08:31.000 --> 08:33.000
I can't.

08:33.000 --> 08:37.000
You hear him, Quall. He can't. You must do something about this, Quall.

08:37.000 --> 08:41.000
Yes, Marston, shall I prepare the hypnarray?

08:41.000 --> 08:46.000
You know your role well, Quall. By all means, prepare the machine.

08:48.000 --> 08:49.000
Come, Dantro, over here.

08:49.000 --> 08:50.000
Yes, Marston.

08:50.000 --> 08:58.000
That's right. Now, sit down. Lean back. Just let me put this helmet on your head. There.

08:58.000 --> 09:12.000
Very well. Now we're ready, Quall. Turn the volume up.

09:12.000 --> 09:17.000
Zer, Zer, look at that layout. How right I was about Marston, all right.

09:17.000 --> 09:19.000
Like to bust in there and flatten him for good.

09:19.000 --> 09:23.000
I better do what Judge Augustus says. I wonder what they're going to do to Dantro.

09:23.000 --> 09:28.000
I better keep quiet and just watch.

09:30.000 --> 09:33.000
We will try again, Quall. Take off the helmet.

09:33.000 --> 09:34.000
Yes, my dear.

09:34.000 --> 09:39.000
Very well. Now, Dantro, come here. Over to the dimension warper.

09:39.000 --> 09:40.000
Yes, Marston.

09:40.000 --> 09:45.000
Now, quickly. Quickly, how does it operate? Show me the controls.

09:45.000 --> 09:52.000
Yes, Marston. Here. Here. No. No, I can't.

09:52.000 --> 09:53.000
I must not. I can't.

09:53.000 --> 09:56.000
You must. You must obey me. Do as I say. Show me the controls.

09:56.000 --> 09:59.000
I can't. I can't do as you order.

09:59.000 --> 10:01.000
Show me. Show me how.

10:01.000 --> 10:04.000
It's no good, Marston. He will not break.

10:04.000 --> 10:06.000
That is what he will do. If he doesn't show me, break.

10:06.000 --> 10:10.000
I'll break his mind like a dry twig if he refuses to obey my commands.

10:10.000 --> 10:12.000
Do you hear, Dantro?

10:12.000 --> 10:13.000
I hear you.

10:13.000 --> 10:18.000
Then obey me. Show me. Show me how to operate this machine.

10:18.000 --> 10:23.000
No. No, I can't. I can't obey. I must not obey. I want to, but I can't.

10:23.000 --> 10:29.000
Take him back to the ray, Quall. And this time, give him the full power.

10:35.000 --> 10:40.000
You cannot resist me. You must obey me. Do as I command.

10:40.000 --> 10:45.000
Show me. Show me how to operate the dimension warper.

10:45.000 --> 10:48.000
I... Very well, Marston.

10:48.000 --> 10:52.000
Here. This is the control that turns the machine on.

10:52.000 --> 10:56.000
Here's the direction finder that is operated by rotating this wheel.

10:56.000 --> 10:58.000
And this is the key.

10:59.000 --> 11:03.000
Marston has won over Dantro and possibly the key to control of the solar system.

11:03.000 --> 11:07.000
What will Marston plan now? What can Flats do at this crucial point?

11:07.000 --> 11:15.000
We'll be back in a moment, but first here is a message the Planet Man wants you to hear.

11:28.000 --> 11:33.000
Tune in again for more transcribed thrills and adventures.

11:33.000 --> 11:38.000
Rocket millions of light years into space with Dantro, the Planet Man.

11:38.000 --> 12:02.000
Baa... Planet... Man...
