Recap / Martin Mystery S 2 E 34 The Lost Tribe

Go To

Looking for two missing Center agents in the Sahara strands the gang in the long lost underground city of Alpha-Omega. The Alpha-Omegans mistake the bald-headed (thanks to a hairdressing accident) Diana for their lost Queen named Una. She is the sign they have been waiting for to begin their conquest of the surface world.

General Tropes:

  • Bald Mystic: Invoked. Diana loses all her hair after a hair dye job goes wrong and is mistaken by the Alpha-Omega, a group of underground creatures as their long lost queen. She stays bald for the entire episode (and gets a wig at the the very end of the episode).
  • Coincidental Accidental Disguise: Diana resembled the queen of an ancient race called Alpha-Omega due to two things: One, she was trying out a hair dye that caused her hair to fall out and leave a stain on her balding head, and MOM just so happened to toss her a tooth necklace (she stated it was so everyone would pay attention to it instead of her head).
  • Has a Type: Billy finds Diana's bald look quite attractive, since she reminds him of an alien he dated on his home planet. Diana is none too pleased at attracting an alien.
  • I'm Melting!: After spending thousands of years underground, the Alpha-Omega melt while in contact with direct sunlight.
  • Not the Intended Use: Martin only intended to use the concentrated sun ray of the Ultra U-Watch to blind the jailer, only to discover sunlight makes them melt.
  • Weakened by the Light: The Alpha-Omega melt if exposed to sunlight, which is how they realize Diana is an impostor.
