Thunderbirds (TV series)/Recap/S1/E24 Martian Invasion

The Hood disguises himself as a movie producer in order to get his two favourite things into the same place - the Thunderbirds and powerful cameras. Using his mind-control powers to force Kyrano to disable the Automatic Camera Detector, the Hood then arranges for a special effects sequence to trap two actors in a cave. As the cave slowly floods, International Rescue race to the scene. While they succeed in rescuing the trapped men, the Hood flees with the film he has acquired.

Since the film is not magnetic, it's immune to Thunderbird 1's film-wiping beam, and the Thunderbird is forced to chase down the Hood, eventually firing upon his vehicle. While this does not dissuade him, it does cripple his car, and the Hood is forced to steal a light aircraft from a local airstrip. Rather than choose between preserving their security and killing a man, the Thunderbirds wave off their pursuit when it turns out that the stolen aircraft was severely overdue for an overhaul. Losing control and visibility, the Hood attempts to make a landing at his client's villa - and succeeds only in slamming his plane into the side of the building.
