Return of the Death probe
coltras3512 February 2024
In part one, A mystery unfolds in a steel production facility capable of producing extremely strong metals. Steve Austin goes undercover as a steel worker to investigate. He quickly determines that a previously undetected theft of metal plate had occurred, and apprehends the culpable plant manager. Following the exchange of the plant manager for a kidnapped foreign ambassador, Steve Austin and Oscar Goldman are led to a remote area where they are introduced to a new and improved Venus probe constructed of the stolen metal. The alleged foreign ambassador demands nuclear weapons from the U. S. government in exchange for not releasing the seemingly unstoppable Venus probe on the nearby population.

In part two, When all physical assaults fail against the new Venus probe, Steve succeeds in tricking it into falling into a pit. However, when it starts drilling towards a city, Steve has a bigger problem than before.

The probe looks like a giant dark Vader helmet and it's much more deadly than the daleks - it's back and strong before but it's now controlled by some bad hombres. It's a decent episode, though as not as good as the first episodes featuring the probe. You got to hand it to Steve, he throws every but the kitchen sink to stop the probe, and Oscar looks suitably stressed.
