The Last Day (Red Dwarf)
"The Last Day" is the sixth, and last, episode of science fiction sit-com ''Red Dwarf'' Series III,〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title =British Sitcom Guide - Red Dwarf - Series 3 )〕 and the eighteenth in the series run.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title =TV.com - The Last Day summary )〕 It premiered on the British television channel BBC2 on 19 December 1989. Written by Rob Grant and Doug Naylor, and directed by Ed Bye, the story is about Kryten's expiry date and how Lister decides to give him a last day to remember. The episode was re-mastered, along with the rest of the first three series, in 1998.
==Plot==
A message pod reaches ''Red Dwarf'' from Diva-Droid International, manufacturers of Kryten (Robert Llewellyn) and the 4000 series of mechanoids. It announces that Kryten's built-in expiry date is almost up and his in-built shut-down chip will automatically activate in twenty-four hours time. Kryten resigns himself to his fate, telling Lister (Craig Charles) he's going to get his reward in "Silicon Heaven". Lister tries to tell him there's no such place, to no avail.〔Howarth & Lyons (1993) p. 65.〕 Lister is sickened that Kryten is forced to shut himself down just to make room for a newer model and is determined Kryten's going to enjoy his last day in a profitless and non-practical way (Kryten's definition of fun). He even goes to the trouble of building the robotic Marilyn Monroe kit that's been hanging around the ship for years, whilst Holly (Hattie Hayridge) knocks up a special android home brew using Vimto and liquid nitrogen.〔Howarth & Lyons (1993) p. 66.〕
Waking the next morning with a hangover, Kryten realises that he had experienced true pleasure for the first time and decides that he would much rather delay his departure. He can override his shutdown programme, but the catch is that his replacement mechanoid comes fitted with instructions to kill its predecessor if necessary. But Lister, Rimmer (Chris Barrie) and Cat (Danny John-Jules) will not let him on board. They're going to stand by their shipmate.〔
The replacement mechanoid Hudzen's ship lands on the landing gantry, and the crew prepare for his appearance. Lister tells Hudzen that Kryten is staying put and that he should leave. Hudzen refuses to go away and advances down the corridor as having spent million of years travelling alone he has been driven dangerously insane and he tries to kill everyone. Just as Hudzen is finally upon Kryten and about to deliver a killing blow, he is told by Kryten that Silicon Heaven does not exist. Hudzen's mind cannot cope with this revelation and shuts down. Lister quizzes Kryten about why Hudzen's mind (a later model) can't cope with this revelation, whilst Kryten's can. Kryten replies that he had a distinct advantage over Hudzen: Kryten knew that he was lying.〔
