Last week, we left our small party of space colonists as they began their

test drilling for radioactive materials.

Materials that could be transformed into enough atomic fuel to lift their

disabled spaceship off this strange and alien planet.

I've got the explosives.

We'll be able to blast through now.

Will, get behind that rock.

Yes, sir.

Give me a hand with the rig, Don.

Cut the blasting switch. I can't. It's already firing.

Well, check the wires.

Are you all right?

Yeah, I'm okay.

You move your fingers.

Okay.

Now, how many times do I have to tell you you can't? I was just trying to

Don dropped this, and I thought you'd need it. Boy, plastic explosives.

What a dumb thing to carry up over a blaster. That's enough, Will. Let's

the rig.

Now,

Penny, you can't stay here.

I could help.

No, it's too dangerous. Why don't you go find out if you can help your mother?

She said she's too busy.

I'm sorry, Penny, but you can't stay here.

Why don't you run along and play, dear?

Yes, Mommy.

That's a good idea. Why don't you run along and play?

Yes, Daddy.

And Will Robinson, you're nothing but a boy.

Maybe I should choose number 435.

Oh, I think 476 will be very becoming.

Will, don't you have any idea where Penny went? All I know, Mom, is I'm

Can't we eat supper without her?

It's going to be dark pretty soon. I think maybe you ought to go out and look

for her. Hello.

Hello. Oh.

Hi. Am I late?

Where have you been?

Oh, someplace.

Someplace. Where someplace?

It's where a friend of mine lives. That's where. A what?

Oh, he's just sort of an echo.

We didn't have time to talk too much. Talk to an echo. Oh, of course.

He lives in this deep cave, and when I pushed the rock and fell into it, well,

then... What?

Oh, I didn't get hurt or anything. And besides, it was so dark in there, I

couldn't see.

So I just pushed the rock again, and it opened, and I climbed out. How big a

rock? Oh, bigger than this, even. But I can move it with one finger.

Oh, Mother, it's a wonderful, marvelous place.

Boy, why didn't you kick stay in that cave, you sissy?

Because I knew I'd be late for supper.

Don't you know what you would have seen? A white rabbit. And then this teacup

and saucer would come jumping out. No, it wasn't like that at all.

Will, now that's enough.

Okay, Mom, okay.

You believe me, don't you, Mom? Oh, yes, of course I do, dear, but Will just

doesn't understand.

And there's this magic fountain, and all you have to do is... Time's up.

Now, let's see what we have here.

Very gently now. Okay.

There now.

Oh, Mother, I like it. So do I.

It's very pretty.

And there's this mysterious voice that talks to me. Darling, I'm very glad that

you found such a nice game to play.

I like this much better than 435.

So do I. I think you made a very wise choice.

And you will be my friend, won't you?

Won't you?

Come in.

Stay.

Stay in.

Stay, my friend.

Thank you.

Hello, darling. Hi, dear.

Say, didn't I see Penny back there with you?

Yes, I got her to come along by promising I'd drop her off on the road

friend's house.

Will, Penny, come and get it.

A friend's house? You know, that spring area where she plays.

John, you don't think she could be in any danger there, do you?

No, no.

She keeps talking about a cave that's dark and wet and shiny.

Well, there may be some limestone -type formations far below, but there's simply

no way she could get in there.

Now, we prospected that whole area. There's nothing there.

Mother, Cherry Pie, how did you do it?

On the computer.

Well, I'm not really worried. It's just that, well, she seems so happy these

days. I don't want anything to spoil it.

Oh, nothing's going to happen.

My friend gave them to me. Your friend?

How can somebody who can't even see, who isn't even there, give you things?

He just took a piece of his roof apart, and there they were.

His roof?

You're crazy.

Jacks. These are just little rocks, pieces of quartz you picked up.

Here. Here, watch that now.

I'm sorry. I don't care. I've got lots more. My friend has whole walls made out

of jacks like those.

Come on, let's go eat.

Well, I do care.

Here I was, on the verge of checkmating you, my friend.

On the verge of...

Good

heavens.

So sorry, my dear friend.

Whole walls, she said.

Here, analyze it. Hurry!

Penny? Oh, Penny, wait.

Penny?

Penny? Wait, wait, my dear.

Ah.

I haven't had a chance to ask you yet, my dear, but how is your friend feeling

today?

I don't know. I haven't gone to see him yet.

Well, well.

It occurred to me.

Perhaps he would enjoy having some other visitors to see his house and have a

cup of tea.

By a singular coincidence, I have very little work to do today.

No, I'm the only person he likes to talk to.

He's shy.

But perhaps I could... Material crystallized under great pressure and

temperature.

Excuse me a moment, my dear.

Wait, wait. Not so loud. I mean, not yet.

Suspend report on chess game.

Understand?

Understand.

Penny? Penny?

Penny, my child.

I'm not like your brother and sister, you know.

I believe in your friend.

Oh, it makes me feel so lonesome and envious to think of you having a... I'm

sorry, Dr. Smith. You're just going to have to find somebody else to play with

by yourself.

Material crystallized in the isometric system.

Never mind all those polysyllabic words.

Why, they had to program you with an unabridged dictionary.

The subject is a native carbon.

Well, say it.

Say it.

Most commonly referred to as the diamond.

Diamond.

Diamond.

Where did she go?

I couldn't see a thing after she left that pond.

Why didn't you say so?

Go on, go on. Don't just stand there.

Only don't make so much noise.

You have as much Indian tracking blood in your circuits as I have.

Now check directions, recompute. Do as I say.

Of all the stubborn clatterbrains.

No, wait.

My learned compatriot. My fellow diamond king.

Perhaps this big rock?

Yes. Move it, my friend.

Push.

Affirmative.

You're programmed for 50 tons pressure.

Yes. Push.

That's it.

Put your back into it.

Low gear, you weakling. Low gear.

Do I have to do all the work?

Stop.

Stop. Disconnect.

Does not compute.

Rock should move.

You blundering bag of bolts.

She must be around here somewhere.

Somewhere.

Affirmative. Be quiet.

What's the matter with you now?

Danger.

Danger.

Do you want her to hear us?

Do you want everyone on this planet to know about our diamond mine? Of course

it's dangerous. Now be quiet.

There.

Faint heart never built Fort Knox.

My cowardly friend.

Now go home. You make too much noise anyway. I can do much better without

Affirmative

you could learn some more words.

But if you don't even care, well, then I don't care either.

There's probably not enough light in here anyway.

And I'm not going to wait 15 minutes for... Care?

What is care?

Well, care is like when someone

won't speak to you.

That's what it is.

Like?

Light in here?

I know light.

I can fix light.

sleep or growing up or changing?

I don't know yet.

Well, why don't you try to find out?

Do you know what my brother calls you?

He says you're nobody.

Because I can't tell him you're somebody.

If you just... Is that a name like Penny?

Of course.

But you could try to be Mr. Nobody, couldn't you?

If you'd just let me see a little bit of you.

I don't know how.

But try.

You just can't stay down here until you die.

What is die?

Well, I don't think I'm exactly sure myself.

But when...

Someone can't speak anymore.

Or... When someone can't move anymore.

Like, before you could remember, maybe.

I remember rocks.

Rocks bubbling.

These.

But this is granite. It takes millions and millions of years to...

You're that old already?

Read. You say read.

Oh, well... It might be a little young for you, but... See, it's

about an ugly duckling who didn't have anyone to play with because they all

he was too big and too hideous to look at and... Are you listening

to me?

Mr. Nobody?

I didn't mean to criticize you before, and... There's no reason for you to be

scared here.

Please say something.

Where are you now?

Mr. Nobody, please answer me.

What shall I say, my dear?

Mr. Nobody?

That's me.

Right here, my dear.

Your old friend.

And I've just thought up a new game to play.

Remember the jacks, my dear?

Well, suppose we play marbles.

Yes.

Gather up all the loose marbles you can find.

The big ones are the best, you know. Bring those.

Yes. We might even play croquet.

Look about.

Look about, my dear.

Maybe you can even find rocks that big.

As big as a billiard ball.

Or a nice, glittery bowling... Help!

Save me, somebody!

Help!

Dr. Smith, what are you doing here?

Help me, dear!

I'm wasting up here!

Be careful.

Poor dear, poor... There, oh, there.

Oh, there. No, no, dear.

Father away. Those rocks may give way again.

Thank you, my child, thank you.

I just happened to be out here gathering some wild flowers for your dear mother.

You pretended you were Mr. Nobody, didn't you?

Who?

Oh, yes, well...

I did perhaps hear you talking to yourself down there, but I merely

that... No!

No!

It's all right. It's all right. No harm done. It's much better a dangerous hole

like that be closed up, you know. Mr. Nobody?

Mr. Nobody!

Much, much better.

Because now we know where to drill a proper hole, don't we?

A hole for blasting.

Look, Smith, I just finished supper. I'm tired, and I had a lousy day today. Of

course, of course.

And tomorrow, bright and early, Professor Robinson's pet theories will

drilling in some other outlandish location.

Well, he just does happen to be in command here, and we do happen to need

ingredients for a rocket fuel. All right, you are, sir. I'm both counts.

But wouldn't you like to be the discoverer?

The successful prospector?

Here, look at this.

Porous clay.

Where'd you get this?

A place I know.

It was washed out by a stream, but there may be more underground.

Has Robinson seen this? Come on. Oh, no.

He's still eating.

And he's even more exhausted than you are.

What are you up to, Smith?

We could take the portable rig.

It's only a few feet of drilling.

Then the explosive.

And we bring up a test core.

You mean now?

Well, there's only about an hour of daylight left. Come on. But this place

only a few minutes from here.

Don't you understand, Major?

I could do this myself.

I would like to be the savior of our little party.

But unfortunately, Professor Robinson simply doesn't understand my competence

with the explosive pellets.

You mean he doesn't trust you with them?

Or the guns?

Perhaps by this act.

Perhaps by sharing with you the possible glory of our salvation, I can in some

small measure redeem myself in all your eyes.

I sure would like to see the surprise in everybody's face.

All right, but we've got to step on it. I'll meet you in five minutes out by the

drill. Roger. And remember, sir, mum's the word, just you and me.

Oh, and you too, my stupid friend.

I wouldn't forget you.

Couldn't be a pile driver, eh?

Well, for the next few days, you're going to be a steam shovel, a bulldozer.

That's what's going to happen.

I'll shake them loose.

You'll dig them up.

Every last diamond in that hill.

Do you think just a place could think and talk? Will, like you, maybe?

Oh, maybe.

I asked Daddy if it's only people that can have brains, and he said very few of

them do.

Well, darling, I'm sure that there are all sorts of mysterious forces that we

don't understand.

Even forces with far more intelligence than we have.

A rainbow could have feelings, or the moon, maybe?

Well, certainly, I think so.

Go on, now. Scoot.

I can get mad at you, too.

Oh, Penny.

I've just got to see Mr. Nobody right now.

I've just got to.

Now, look, I've said no.

Now, if you have something you want to tell him, you can talk to him right

can't you? Now, that's all there is to it, dear.

Talk to him?

Right here?

Oh, Mother, I thought you were the only one.

I thought you really believed me.

Just a little bit.

Yes, I do.

No, I still do.

And you know why?

Well, I'll tell you a secret.

When I was a little girl, I had a very special friend, too.

His name was Mr. Noodles, and he lived inside my teddy bear.

What? It's true.

I know that you're the only one who'd understand how very, very real Mr.

was to me.

Oh, Mother, that's the silliest thing I ever heard of. How can anyone live

inside a teddy bear?

No,

not here.

I've been all over this area. There's nothing here.

Over here by the outcropping, I think.

Yes. Yes, this should be just over the main deposit of clay. Nothing but

granite. You want to bet maybe a little limestone, but... Here, take another

look at this.

The clay washed down into that little pond, that little spring.

So maybe a bird dropped it there.

Doctor, these minerals are at the wrong end of the spectrum entirely.

Only 45 minutes left, Major.

Only 45 minutes until dark. And here you are, sir, using the time to quote

someone else.

Well, John happens to be right about that, but... Well, no sense wasting the

trip. Come on, let's get started.

You haven't seen that piece of clay I found today, have you?

Don hasn't had a chance to see it yet. The porous clay?

Gee, that's about the best find you've made so far, isn't it?

Could be.

I wonder what happened to it. I'll go look around the lab. No, stay and finish

your work. I just thought I had it in my pack.

This isn't really work.

Just fooling around with some old rocks I picked up.

Oh.

Still in polish, huh?

What are you doing, making yourself a necklace?

No.

Maybe something for Penny.

Girls get so gloopy sometimes.

Can you imagine bawling because you imagine your imaginary friend is mad or

scared or something?

Only trouble is, some of these rods are hard as diamonds.

Diamonds? Yeah.

Can you imagine anything as useless up in a place like this?

You should have heard Dad laugh when I showed him.

Dr. Smith.

Bet he knew what they were all the time.

What are you talking about?

I'm going to bed.

Will, did you see Dr. Smith sneaking out alone this evening?

No. He went someplace with Don, I think. They were carrying the drawing stuff.

I guess we're getting ready to blast some more tomorrow.

Blasting?

It's all right. I'll fix it.

Doc, of all the wild goose chasers, it's just impossible there'd be clay in

formation. I'll have it fixed in a moment.

But it's getting late.

Just a little deeper.

We're almost there.

Cave within a cave. Well, if that isn't the last straw.

No, no, that's all right. That's far enough. Quick now. Give me your bag of

explosive pellets. Just take it easy.

I'm still doing this.

Mr. Nobody, wake up.

Mr. Nobody, please.

Wake up.

Open, I said.

Mr. Nobody.

Mr. Nobody, please.

Wake up.

Two, I think.

Maybe three.

Are you serious?

If I placed more than one pellet in that hole, we'd cause a cave -in that would

wreck the whole area.

We'd take a steam shovel to get us a sample then.

Of course, of course.

You know best.

Here's the firing wire.

You'd better handle that, too.

Let's get behind the rocks.

Yes, yes, of course.

Oh, uh... Wait, the drill.

That's okay.

Leave it. Come on.

Whatever you say.

All set.

Did you put more explosive pellets in that hole?

Of course not. What are you talking about? Well, then what happened to her?

You mean the bag is empty?

I wonder if it was such a fearful blast.

They must have rolled out on the ground up there when you put the bag down.

What a mess.

I must say, we did rather shake things up a bit, didn't we?

A bit.

It would take a bulldozer a week to dig out underground samples now.

Well, it's just a good thing there wasn't anything here in the first place.

It could be that I was mistaken about the possibilities of our finding clay in

this area.

Dr. Smith, you've finally said something sensible.

But tell me something.

Why is it whenever you come near anything, the roof caves in?

We all have our good and bad luck, sir.

But this time, I was wrong.

I concede it.

There's nothing further we can do here.

I suggest we return to the spaceship.

Brother, you'd better run if you want to catch up with me.

Please wake up, Penny.

What's the matter? Did you hear that?

Sounded like thunder.

Sky seems clear enough.

Sounds like a storm coming up.

I hope it doesn't wake the children.

I'd better check the outside equipment.

I'm going out to find them, Penny.

Whoever they are that did this.

And I'm going to teach them a lesson.

You heard Penny.

I will destroy you.

What is it? I don't know. What's happening?

Feels like it might be an earthquake.

It doesn't stop.

Come on, keep moving.

John?

I can't find Penny. She's not in her bed.

Thank you, Mr. Nobody.

But where are you?

Mr. Nobody, where are you?

Penny! Oh, Penny.

This pure cosmic force, what does it turn into?

I don't know.

There are a lot of things.

I don't know.

It's like a new Milky Way.

Well, caterpillars can turn into butterflies, can't they?

Goodbye, Mr. Nobody.

Goodbye.

Goodbye.

Hey, he's all fit.

Yes, good as new.

Tuned to the finest... What's that?

Just a necklace I was making for Penny.

That's all they're good for in a place like this. But you know how girls are.

Always liking useless stuff.

Hey, you want to play chess?

Operative.

Think of the value of these rocks back on Earth.

Oh, the pain.

The pain.
