Wrestling is still on the menu this week, as Richard Diamond gets wrapped up in a case with his wrestling friend Seymour, after a mysterious dead man shows up on Diamond’s doorstep, with an ice pick in him. They work their way through deceitful doctors and other Gym Rats, in an effort to find out exactly who this man had to die. Meanwhile, an old friend of Rocky Jordan shows up to offer him the chance to manage a Copper Mine, which leads to a number of complications, with a mysterious brother, a death connected to the old friend, and plenty of intrigue on the streets of Cairo. .
In hour 2, we offer another installment of “The Century” as part of Dimestore Revelations. This week, Blackstone and Rhoda go to see a Swami with an usual act, but it quickly veers into horror as an audience member seems to disappear into the spirit realm – dead – leaving the mother in shock and susceptible to the worst inclinations of this horrific swami. And finally, in a X-Minus One adaptation of a Robert Sheckley short story, a misunderstanding between a group of colonists and a single settler on their own, leads to a ridiculous scenario where the colonists assume the settler is part of a larger group, who are up to nefarious ends. Can this gentleman convince the colonists that there isn’t a, “Native Problem”?
Enjoy!
