Operation Time
"Operation Time" is the eighth episode of the British Supermarionation television series ''Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons''. First broadcast in the United Kingdom on on ATV Midlands, it was written by Richard Conway and Stephen J. Mattick and directed by Ken Turner.
In this episode, a Mysteron vow to "kill time" confuses Spectrum until the target is discovered to be a military general who is due to receive revolutionary neurosurgery. The Mysteron weaknesses discovered in "Operation Time" are developed in "Spectrum Strikes Back", its sequel episode.
==Plot==
When Spectrum receives a puzzling Mysteron threat to "kill time", Colonel White dispatches his senior officers to major cities to watch for targets. No promising intelligence surfaces until Captain Magenta learns that General Tiempo, the Commander of Western Region World Defence—whose surname is also the Spanish word for "time"—is soon to undergo a brain operation that will be given by leading neurosurgeon Dr Theodore Magnus, of the London Hospital. After Magnus is flown to Cloudbase along with Tiempo and a surgical team, he insists that the procedure—to be carried out with the aid of the pioneering technology of the "Cerebral Pulsator"—be performed immediately as scheduled, despite security concerns. Spectrum is unaware that the real Magnus is dead—killed in a car accident engineered by Captain Black — and that a Mysteron reconstruction has taken his place.
In the operating room, the duplicate deliberately overruns the Cerebral Pulsator and the patient is killed by the resulting seizure. However, since the patient's face was covered throughout, the reconstructed Magnus had no way of knowing that Tiempo had in fact been replaced by Captain Scarlet. Although the duplicate manages to break out of Sick Bay, it is soon cornered by Captain Blue in the Cloudbase generator room, where it is fatally electrocuted by an uncovered cable. During this time, an inexplicable phenomenon has appeared on an X-ray of Tiempo's head: Magnus's hand, which was inadvertently caught in the scan, has not been penetrated by the X-rays and has instead registered as a normal, photographic image. Later, once Scarlet has been revived, White announces the development of equipment designed to exploit the Mysterons' imperviousness to X-rays and their vulnerability to electricity.
