Sealab 2021
The year is 2021. Deep below the ocean's surface, looms a vast, magnificently high-tech compound: Sealab. A multi-national scientific station with an annual budget in the trillions, dedicated to the research and exploration of man's final frontier... Sealab's crew is charged with exploring the possibility of underwater colonization. As the Earth's surface, by this time, has gotten just generally crowded, hot, and icky. However, as most government-funded agencies usually are, Sealab is manned by a motley collection of malcontents and screw-ups who were unfit for work in the private sector. They really don't get any research done, but instead spend their time bickering among themselves or just plain goofing off. The crew have manipulated their luckless leader, Captain Murphy, into submission, and are content to ride the government clock, raking in fat, hazardous-duty paychecks.
Two scientists are stuck on an iceberg in Antarctica. They call for Sealab's help, but the crew has other issues.
No one will play with Captain Murphy. Bored and dejected, he starts a pirate radio station using Sealab's emergency radio beacon. As 'Howling Mad' Murphy, his obnoxious humor (and soundtrack by The Knaves) catapults him to stardom. But the FCC is closing in on his signal. And this time, it's personal.
With Sealab under threat of destruction, the crew debate the benefits of having a robot body.
Captain Murphy's "Happy Cake" cupcake oven is missing. Furious, he sends several sealab workers into the surrounding waters to find it. In confidence, Sparks reveals to Marco that he discarded the oven into the water as part of an larger plan to drive Captain Murphy crazy. Sparks also reveals to Marco that he is bent on world domination. Sparks shows Marco that he has a secret mountain stronghold, staffed by dozens of servile followers. There is a giant squid in the area. Marco shows Captain Murphy a radar image of the squid, but Murphy insists that the crewmembers risk their lives to bring back his beloved oven.
Debbie decides she wants to have a baby - now. She interviews all of the male crew members to see who would make the best father for her as-yet-conceived child. The men, of course, turn it into a competition - other than Captain Murphy, who thinks Debbie is going to adopt one of them. In the meantime, Stormy almost learns a valuable lesson about race relations - but doesn't, quite.
A bloodthirsty, killer alien has boarded Sealab, and trapped the entire crew. His shimmering form is seemingly everywhere, rending flesh from human bones, as the remaining survivors cower on the bridge. Once again, it's up to the brave Dr. Quinn (with a little help from Old Gus and Dolphin Boy) to save the day.
While pirating cable television for Captain Murphy, Quinn and Stormy are caught in a 15-minute time warp as Sealab continually blows up.
A "terminally ill orphan" comes aboard Sealab, courtesy of the Final Request Foundation, with sinister plans in his mind.
Quinn was electrocuted by Stormy who inadvertently tossed something electrical in the station's tank room. Throughout, Quinn drifts in and out of consciousness, dreaming a series of bizarre sequences.
Captain Murphy gets stuck under a vending machine and is antagonized by a tooth-hoarding robot. Debbie, Quinn, Marco, Stormy and Sparks become roadies for a hip hop music act.
Captain Murphy runs up a large amount of debt for Sealab's budget when he begins getting feng shui advice from Master Loo. Quinn feels suspicious of Master Loo and finds out he is a major scam artist.
