Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons-The Complete Series (1967)

WINGED ASSASSIN
As Scarlet recovers from the aftereffects of his experience with the Mysterons and attempts to resume his duties as a Spectrum senior, the Mysterons threaten the life of the Director-General of the United Asian Republic, currently under Spectrum protection in London but ready to head back to his home country--and a commercial jet liner headed for London International Airport is the instrument of destruction.

BIG BEN STRIKES AGAIN
The Mysterons threaten to destroy London as they take over a transporter carrying a nuclear device, concealing it in an empty car park, then set its five-key trigger to go off at 0900. Spectrum's only clue: The disoriented driver's memory of Big Ben striking thirteen times.

MANHUNT
Captain Black breaks into the Culver Atomic Research Centre in England and is exposed to a short-lived isotope which turns him into a radioactive source that Spectrum seeks to find with a tightly-woven net of mobile geiger counter trucks and strategic roadblocks, while Black attempts to thwart the net with a stolen Spectrum Pursuit Vehicle. But when Symphony Angel disobeys a direct order and lands to intercept the SPV herself, Black kidnaps her at gunpoint and goes back to the Culver Atomic Centre--and Spectrum must locate a needle in a haystack before Black can kill Symphony.

AVALANCHE
Men are dying mysteriously at Outer Space Defence Force bases on the Arctic Circle--the latest target of the Mysterons--and it's up to Lieutenant Green and Captain Scarlet to solve the mystery before Space General Ward launches an attack on Mars.

WHITE AS SNOW
It's not just loud raucous music that has Colonel White jumpy: The latest Mysteron threat is directly against him, and he orders the destruction of a commercial radio transmission satellite that is on a collision course with Cloudbase...a move Scarlet openly opposes due to the fact that there could be innocent victims on-board. But when Scarlet learns that White knew the satellite was a Mysteron booby-trap and didn't tell his men, he seeks to make amends with White...who is now in hiding as deep-sea fisherman Robert Snow on a submarine which has already been infiltrated by the Mysterons. Meanwhile, Captain Blue takes command of Cloudbase...and his program of extra drills and educational lectures guarantees White a warm welcome if he returns.

THE TRAP
While flying escort duty, Melody Angel loses the plane carrying the coordinators of a World Air Force conference that Spectrum has been assigned to protect in a fierce electrical storm. But when the plane emerges from the storm, its passengers have already been Mysteronized, and the duplicates trick Spectrum into moving the conference to an isolated castle in Scotland...where a trap has been set for Scarlet, Symphony, and the delegates.

OPERATION TIME
A Mysteron threat to kill time brings world-famous brain surgeon Dr. Magnus and his obvious-target patient, General J.F. Tiempo, to Cloudbase--and with them, inadvertantly, a way to detect and kill Mysterons.

SPECTRUM STRIKES BACK
A peaceful game reserve is not what it seems: The World President, Space General Peterson, Colonel White, Captain Scarlet, and Captain Blue convene in a hunting lodge--really the above-ground covering for an underground Spectrum Intelligence Agency conference center--to discuss the latest in anti-Mysteron technology. But someone else is on hand: Captain Black, who attacks the Spectrum senior officer corps liaison to SIA, Captain Indigo, and uses him as a vehicle to trap the elite group and keep them from ever using their new technology.

SPECIAL ASSIGNMENT
As a Mysteron threat to destroy North America looms large, Scarlet behaves strangely, running up a $5000 gambling debt and getting himself drummed out of Spectrum. But as Blue attempts to save his friend from himself, Scarlet may be in bigger trouble: The gangsters who have bought his marker are Mysteron agents...and they want him to steal an SPV for them.

THE HEART OF NEW YORK
A botched break-in at Spectrum Headquarters New York nets the disappointed robbers something more valuable than money: The papers they have stolen detail Spectrum's knowledge of the Mysterons, dangerous information to be floating loose as the Mysterons threaten to destroy the heart of New York. But as their ringleader plots to use this knowledge to steal the gold reserves from the Second National Bank, Captain Black plots to use them to carry out the Mysterons' plans.

LUNARVILLE 7
The Lunar Commander of Earth's colony on the Moon, Lunarville, announces that he has reached a truce with the Mysterons and declares his colony's independence from Earth...but Colonel White is suspicious of his statements, particularly in light of intelligence that reveals unauthorized construction in the Humboldt region, and sends Scarlet, Blue, and Green to Lunarville 7 to investigate the situation.

POINT 783
The Mysterons threaten to kill the Supreme Commander of Earth Forces, and two of his aides are the chosen weapons. The first attempt is made at Supreme Headquarters Earth Forces by the Commander's aide; the second, at a secret test site in the Sahara Desert--Point 783--as the World Army's newest weapon, the unmanned and indestructible Unitron tank, is being tested...a test that goes awry when the Unitron begins seeking a target inside the control room at Point 783 instead of following manual instructions, leaving only Captain Scarlet and an SPV standing between the Supreme Commander and certain death.

MODEL SPY
Fashion designer Andr. Verdain is the unlikely target of the latest Mysteron threat...unless one knows that Verdain is really the World Intelligence Agency's European operations director and uses his fashion house as a cover for his activities. But the Mysterons aren't fooled...and two of Verdain's models are turned into agents of destruction on the eve of his spring Monte Carlo show, where Scarlet, Blue, Destiny, and Symphony are working undercover.

SEEK AND DESTROY
A Mysteron threat to kill the Spectrum Angels sends Scarlet and Blue to Paris to retrieve a vacationing Destiny Angel. But on the way to the airport, the trio are gunned down and trapped in a ditch by three Mysteronized Angel aircraft...and only the real Spectrum Angel Flight can save them.

TRAITOR
The Mysterons' latest pronouncement is that there is a traitor in Spectrum's midst...and a series of suspicious hovercraft crashes at Koala Base, the Spectrum training academy, appears to bear this out. But when Scarlet and Blue are sent to investigate, they find a climate of irrational suspicions akin to a witch hunt...and Scarlet and another cadet are caught in the middle.

RENEGADE ROCKET
A longtime friend of Colonel White's, Major Reeves, is about to assume a new post at Base Concord as a rocket expert when the Mysterons attack and destroy him--and his Mysteronized clone launches a new Variable Geometry Rocket toward an unknown destination and takes the flight control box, with the self-destruct codeword, away from Base Concord as fast as he can.

CRATER 101
Scarlet, Blue, and Green head back to Lunarville to conclude some unfinished business--namely the destruction of the Mysteron base being constructed in Crater 101 during their last visit. The plan involves Scarlet, Blue, and Green infiltrating the still-under-construction base and removing the power source so it can be destroyed without the Mysterons regenerating it...but the Lunarville technician planting the atomic destruction device is a Mysteron agent, and new Lunar Commander Linda Nolan must find a way to notify the Spectrum officers, who are out of radio range.

SHADOW OF FEAR
Scarlet and Blue are assigned to protect an observatory in the Himalayas which has launched a satellite to take the first close-up pictures of Mars, a satellite soft-landed on the Martian moon Phobos and literally photographing the planet from the shadow of fear (the meaning of Phobos in Greek)...but the Mysterons are determined to destroy the observatory before the first pictures can reach it.

DANGEROUS RENDEZVOUS
As the Mysterons threaten to destroy Cloudbase before midnight, electronics expert Dr. Koenert comes to Cloudbase to make final adjustments to a communications device powered by the diamond pulsator that Scarlet retrieved from the Mysteron base in Crater 101. Colonel White uses it to transmit a message to the Mysterons, urging them to negotiate a peaceful settlement to this war of nerves. The Mysterons agree to negotiate, but only with a Spectrum agent who agrees to carry no communications gear or weapons of any kind, in an isolated region away from any Spectrum bases...in other words, they want Scarlet.

FIRE AT RIG 15
The Mysterons threaten to bring Spectrum to its knees by cutting off its oil supply, mined from deep wells and refined at a single refinery at Ben-Sheba, and a fire at Rig 15 is the first step. But the firefighting expert hired to put out the fire becomes the Mysterons' weapon for an attack on Ben-Sheba...and Scarlet must race against time to cut him off before he gets to the refinery.

TREBLE CROSS
Is is possible for the Mysterons to make a mistake? It is if they Mysteronize someone who is only clinically dead and not brain-dead, as is the case when a test pilot and his driver are run off the road into a lake and the pilot's body is recovered by two doctors who manage to resuscitate him. Now Spectrum must try and outwit the Mysterons with the real test pilot as the Mysterons threaten to destroy the world capital, Futura City.

FLIGHT 104
Scarlet and Blue go undercover to escort the World President's scientific advisor, Dr. Conrad, to a secret conference in Geneva, Switzerland, but two sharp-eyed reporters recognize the physicist and tail the trio, finally managing to get on the same flight--a flight that Captain Black and the Mysterons have already tampered with.

PLACE OF ANGELS
A Mysteron threat to destroy the place of the angels stumps Spectrum's best efforts to solve the mystery, but they quickly figure out the means: A new deadly virus called XK-14, stolen by the Mysteronized lab assistant to the doctor who created it. But in trying to track down the lab assistant, Scarlet and Blue encounter her wrecked car...and a broken test-tube.

NOOSE OF ICE
The Mysterons have a powerful ally--Nature itself--to aid in their threat against the world's only tritonium mine, an element essential for building the new craft that will undertake the next mission to Mars. The mine is in the ocean underneath the Arctic circle, and to keep the ice away, high voltage electricity powers superheated rods...electricity that is endangered when the Mysterons take over a maintenance technician scheduled to service the base.

EXPO 2068
A volatile nuclear reactor is stolen by its Mysteronized transport driver and hijacked by Captain Black, who is controlling a robot helicopter being used to construct the facilities for Expo 2068...and it's up to Scarlet and Blue to track it down and stabilize it before it explodes and destroys the eastern seaboard of North America.

THE LAUNCHING
The Mysterons threaten to destroy President Roberts, sending Captain Scarlet to Washington to protect the feisty U.S. President...as a Mysteronized reporter makes his way to the nation's capital for another special occasion.

CODENAME EUROPA
The Mysterons vow to kill the triumverate of Europe--World Government Ministers Olafsen, Henderson, and Macini--and Spectrum puts a special plan codenamed Europa into action to protect the three ministers. But a Mysteronized professor of engineering shows Spectrum just how weak their defenses are as he mounts an apparently successful attack on Olafsen, leaving Spectrum to search for clues to his next move.

INFERNO
A Space Recovery Vehicle, on its way to destroy a renegade satellite, gains a new target when the Mysterons attack and destroy it, then turn it back toward Earth--headed straight for a vital desalinization plant in South America, at the base of an Aztec temple, where Scarlet, Blue, Magenta, and Ochre have set up observation posts in the hopes of thwarting the Mysteron plans to destroy the complex.

FLIGHT TO ATLANTICA
On the first anniversary of Spectrum's charter, a mysterious well-wisher sends a case of non-alcoholic champagne to Cloudbase, and Scarlet organizes a celebration that White breaks up when he discovers it occurring during duty hours. But the champagne is not what it seems...and only White and Scarlet remain unaffected as one officer after another begins to exhibit irresponsibility and apparent intoxication. Meanwhile, Captains Blue and Ochre are on their way to destroy a shipwreck that threatens World Navy defense post Atlantica--but Black takes advantage of their intoxication to slip into their navigation pack a phony map that will take their bombing run directly over Atlantica itself.

ATTACK ON CLOUDBASE
A mysterious explosion in the back of Symphony's jet leads her to believe she has been attacked, so she ejects and lands in the desert, where she collapses from heat exhaustion as she attempts to reach help. Meanwhile, the search for her is called off due to a Mysteron threat to destroy Cloudbase--a threat that becomes very real as a mysterious craft shows up on Spectrum's radar.
