"Lemons" is the third episode of science fiction sitcom ''Red Dwarf'' series X, originally broadcast on the British television channel Dave on 18 October 2012. In the episode the crew are marooned on Earth in AD 23, where they meet a peace-loving do-gooder called Jesus. ==Plot== After attempting to assemble a Swedish flat-pack "rejuvenation shower", the crew are unexpectedly shot back to Earth, Britain, in AD 23 when the rays hit them accidentally.〔(Red Dwarf Series 10 - 3. Lemons ), www.radiotimes.com. Retrieved 24 October 2012〕 The Dwarfers need an 8-volt battery to power up their Returner Remote and get home. Remembering a lesson from school Rimmer suggests they make a battery out of potatoes, when Kryten points out Britain in 23 AD doesn't have any potatoes Rimmer suggests making a battery out of lemons but the nearest lemons are in India 4,000 miles away.〔(Lemons ), www.reddwarf.co.uk. Retrieved 24 October 2012〕 Their journey leads them to a crowded market square in India, where they run into a peace-loving do-gooder called Jesus (played by James Baxter).〔 Rimmer is particularly excited about meeting him, as Rimmer has the middle name Judas - when the others question why Rimmer would be given such a negative name, Rimmer explains that his mother belonged to the "Church of Judas", who believe that Judas was Jesus' twin brother and took his place at the Crucifixion, thus allowing Jesus to return after his apparent death. The Dwarfers end up befriending the stranger and eventually wind up back on the ship with the apparent son of God in tow when escaping Romans.〔(TV Review: RED DWARF X Episode 3 'Lemons' ), www.starburstmagazine.com.

Jesus returns to Earth and proceeds to rant against the Ten Commandments,〔(Red Dwarf X: Lemons Review ), www.ganymede.tv. Retrieved 24 October 2012〕 in an attempt to damage his reputation and thus avoid his fate. In a final twist, however, it turns out he is not Jesus of Nazareth, but rather "Jesus of Caesarea", and thus not the son of God at all. Lister advises him to use what he saw in the future to make something of his life - so Jesus starts making and selling bags (which according to the show do not exist in AD 23, but actually did, as bags have been in use since as far back as ancient Egypt). While briefly delaying their return to the future so Lister can have a curry, the Dwarfers spot two twin brothers going by the names of Jesus and Judas. Rimmer goes to get up, only to be shouted at by the others and told to stay put. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lemons (Red Dwarf)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
