The thirty-third episode of Buzz Lightyear of Star Command, in which Zurg sends his latest creation, the Shape Stealer, which possesses anyone it wraps around, to destroy Buzz and his team.
Tropes associated with this episode include:
- And I Must Scream: Victims of the Shape Stealer are fully aware as they're possessed.
- The End... Or Is It?: The day is saved but the Shape Stealer is still out there to plot against the space rangers.
- Explain, Explain... Oh, Crap!: When everyone splits up to look for the Shape Stealer, XR and Mira briefly become suspicious of eah other, before Mira realizes how silly they're being, especially since they know the Shape Stealer's main target is Buzz... Cue a possessed Booster charging into the room, carrying Buzz overhead.
- It Seemed Like a Good Idea at the Time: Nebula thought it was a good idea at the time to let the Combat Control Centre run all of Star Command.
- Pass the Popcorn: Zurg does it as he watches a horrified Booster panic over Buzz being possessed.
- Puppeteer Parasite: The titular Shape Stealer.
- Red Eyes, Take Warning: Or blue, in this case, as it's a clear indication that someone is possessed.
- Wham Shot: Buzz seemingly loses the Shape Stealer and is forced to be kept out of the action for his own safety. Then, we see his GLOWING blue eyes.
