Episode 1.39 'The Powers of Matthew Star' Part 4

They thought they were all done with Matthew Star.  But no.  Not at all. The big wheel had other plans for the Aquaboys that day.  The big wheel smiled ever-so slightly as it knew it was about to make them watch this turd of a show once again.  The wheel knew the Aquaboys needed to experience television history’s only attempt at making paint a compelling plot device.  

Yes, paint. 

The big wheel knew it would test them.  The big wheel knew it would put their resilience, stamina, and sanity to the test.  The big wheel knew the Aquaboys needed a test like this to grow as both humans and friends.  

Did it break them?   Did it drive a wedge in friendship?  Did it force them to do math? 

The Powers of Matthew Star is an American sci-fi television series that aired on NBC on Friday evenings from September 17, 1982 until April 8, 1983. It starred Peter Barton as the title character, the alien prince Matthew "E'Hawke" Star of the planet Quadris, who used his powers to fight crime. Also starring were Amy Steel as Pam Elliot, Matthew’s girlfriend at Crestridge High; and Louis Gossett Jr. as Walt "D'Hai" Shepherd, Matthew’s guardian.

Quadris, twelve light years across the galaxy from Earth. It was home for us until an intergalactic armada conquered it. I fought by the royal family's side, but in vain – even their remarkable powers weren't enough. The crown prince and I escaped to the nearest planet on which we could survive and further his powers in order to someday return to free his people. Here on Earth, the prince is known as Matthew Star. He's a typical American teenager. He has friends – people who love him – and me, his guardian. I'm the only one who knows how special he is. Life for us is a series of joys and dangers. Enemy assassins constantly come to destroy us. Alone, we must survive.
