John and Eugene ponder if eggs might have chains in the Rainbow’s Egg and marvel at the ejaculating alien in Challenge from the Year 2020.

The Rainbow’s Egg Synopsis

Two truckers are transporting a highly dangerous vaguely egg-shaped container of enriched uranium to a new industrial city in the country.

They see blooming bamboo, which is an ill omen, then they see a golden rainbow, and finally, a monster emerges from the ground wrecking the road, the tuck and clearly killing both truckers in the avalanche and fall off the precipitous cliff.

Meanwhile, a group of precocious kids also find a bamboo flower, but Grandmother doesn’t tell them it’s a bad omen, instead, she tells them that when the bamboo blooms and if you find the rainbows egg, it will grant any wish.

The kids wish to restore Grandmother’s ability to walk, so they begin the hunt.

Yuri, Jun, and Ippei are out searching for the truck so that Yuri can file a story.  They find the two truckers who aren’t fatally or even very badly wounded after all.

They tell of the golden rainbow.

Eventually, Jun surmises that the monster, Pagos, which was recently seen in Beijing eating uranium might be here.  They warn the new industrial city.

Meanwhile, the kids find the Uranium, and, thinking it’s the rainbow’s egg, with chains attached to it, they attempt to haul it off somewhere.

Pagos arrives and starts to trash the industrial city.  They are hesitant to use their new neutron missiles because they do not know where the uranium is and it might explode.

When they learn the kids have it somewhere else, they kill the monster.  Also, Grandmother gets up and walks.

Challenge from the Year 2020 Synopsis

The Japan Defense Force sights a UFO and scrambles fighters.  They are destroyed, therefore no one believes it happened.  Lt. Col. Amano is disgraced.

Soon thereafter, people start disappearing, literally in front of the eyes of other people, including Yuriko.  Her boss doesn’t really believe her so she goes to the only logical place, her friend Jun.  As it happens, Lt. Col. Amano has also approached Jun for help with his mystery.  He can only work on one mystery at a time, so he chooses Amano’s problem first.  They fly out over the ocean to the spot where the UFO disappeared.  There’s nothing there, so obviously it was radar failure and Amano was tired.  Somehow relieved by that, they turn back, only for Jun to disappear mid-flight when he is touched by a mysterious blob of liquid.

Ippei had noticed that the events seem very similar to a book called Challenge from the Year 2020 written by the insane professor Kando.  The book purports to detail a series of alien abductions by aliens known as Kemur.  If the book is right, the people disappearing are being transmitted to the planet Kemur in the year 2020, where their bodies will be used to extend the life of the Kemur race.

The liquid attacks Yuriko but she gets lucky and escapes.  Now a believer, her boss arranges for her to have very unimpressive police protection in the form of Detective Udagawa.

The Kemur put in an appearance.

Before we proceed with the following sentence, get your mind out of the gutter, this is a family-friendly program!

The Kemur make people disappear by ejaculating a viscous liquid from a hole at the very tip of their heads.

Based on the information in the book, Ippei and Amano try to contact insane Professor Kando, who was let out of the mental institution because he was incurable.  Much like health care in the United States.  Kando has already been removed, but he left behind the K-Miniod, a device that can emit X-Channel Light, something that will defeat the Kemur.

It turns out Udagawa isn’t actually a bumbling cop, but is actually well-informed, having been insane Professor Kando’s best friend and the person who committed him to the mental institution.  While he saves Yuriko from one attack, he loses her in a second.

He traces the Kemur and Yuriko to an amusement park and they shoot Kemur in the head.  He then enlarges himself and menaces everyone.

Amano and Ippei manage to use Tokyo Tower to emit a beam of X-Channel light, knocking Kemur down.

Kemur then ejaculates on himself and disappears.

The missing people reappear.
