Second Season Episodes - The Girl From The Green Dimension (episode 45)


Will finds himself the center of a color problem when Smith becomes involved with a Green Girl. 

While star-gazing through an electron telescope, Will, Dr .Smith and the Robot are caught in a solar gale, during which the telescope is struck by a bolt of lightning. Afterwards, Will and Smith see Athena, a green woman that hypnotized Smith earlier in their voyage. Terrified, Smith runs back to the Jupiter 2, but Athenamaterializes nearby ,smilingenticingly to him. Recalling that Athena feeds on deutronium rocket fuel, John Robinson and Don plan to check on their supply at the drill site.

Athena visits Smith and lures him to the telescope through which he sees the Robinsons ga thered for breakfast and himself entering and talking to Don. Realizing that she has the power to see into the future, Smith trundles off to find her again. But Ursuk, Athena's giant ex-sui tor, attacks him near the telescope. John and Don discover two canisters missing, only to find Smith feeding them to Athena. During the night, Will travels with Smith to the telescope, but Urso pats the boy on the head, causing him to turn a sparkling green. The next day, Smith entreats Athena to repair the boy, but she explains that Smith will have to fight and defeat Ursuk in order to get him to return Will to his normal color. Ursuk shows Smith a scene in the future through the telescope which depicts the doctor's burial.

The Robot, however, convinces Smith that since he is doomed anyway, he might as well die fighting. Will, meanwhile, has gone to Athena for help. Smith stops in the middle of the duel countdown when he hears the Robinsons nearby, burying something. He sees them disposing of some contaminated radioactive equipment and realizes he is not meant to die after all. Ursuk levels his gun to shoot him until it is whipped from his hands by Athena, who dismisses Smith as unworthy of her attentions. Then, in a puff of green smoke, Athena and Urso disappear into the telescope, and Will is returned to his normal color . 

Ray says: Regarded as one of the worst episodes from season two.
