In this episode Mark talks about one of his favourite films: the 1987 science fiction comedy film "Innerspace" directed by Joe Dante. Produced by Steven Spielberg, the film revolves around a down on his luck navy pilot, Lt. Tuck Pendleton (played by Dennis Quaid), who resigns his commission to volunteer for a secret miniturization experiment that would entail him to be the pilot of a shrunken submersible pod and then be injected into a rabbit using a syringe. However, after Lt. Pendleton is successfully miniturized, the miniturization laboratory is attacked by a rival organisation who wish to steal the miniturization technology - which spurs one of the lead scientists of the project, Dr. Ozzie Wexler (played by John Hora), to flee the lab with the syringe containing the pod being piloted by Lt. Pendleton and, though they are mortally wounded, Dr. Wexler is successful in injecting Lt. Pendleton into an unsuspecting passers-by, hypochondriac Subway clerk Jack Putter (played by Martin Short). The film follows Jack Putter as he attempts to assist Tuck Pendleton in returning him to his original size before his air-supply runs out - and along the way they are both assisted in their efforts by Tuck's on-again/off-again girlfriend, Lydia Maxwell (played by Meg Ryan), as they are continuously pursued by the members of the rival miniturization project. The film also stars Robert Picardo, Kevin McCarthy, Fiona Lewis, Vernon Wells, Henry Gibson, Wendy Schaal, William Schallert, and Dick Miller.
