Plot Overview
The Movie
Weather changes around Mt. Fuji awaken a sleeping dinosaur in a lake. The dinosaur begins eating anyone foolish enough to swim in the lake. A pterodactyl egg is discovered in an ice cave near Mt. Fuji as well. The egg hatches and the pterodactyl does battle with the lake monster.
The Host Segments
- Opening Segment: In the same vein as the "Paul is dead" Beatles craze, the bots try to start a "Joel is dead" rumor.
- Segment One: Joel uses special effects to make himself really small. A little boy comes on board to shake little Joel's hand.
- Segment Two: Joel and the bots make their own sitcom, complete with a laughtrack and awful jokes.
- Segment Three: Joel shows off his model lizard that breathes real fire.
- Closing Segment: Joel and the bots announce that this is the season finale and indicate that the show will be back on KTMA next season. It would return for another season, but not on KTMA.
Notes
- The dinosaur in this movie, a Plesiosaur, would not have been able to move on land as it does in this film.
- Segments one and three seem to be aired in the wrong order as segment one refers to something that happens in segment three.
