Ending / spoiler
Directed by: Jim Mallon
Starring: Jim Mallon, Kevin Murphy, Michael J. Nelson, Trace Beaulieu
Mike, Tom Servo and Crow watch the movie This Island Earth and it ends with the two scientists, Cal and Ruth, making it back to Earth with the help of the alien from Metaluna, Exeter. Cal and Ruth leave Exeter's ship before it runs out of fuel in a biplane. Exeter dies of a wound caused by a stowaway alien from Metaluna and the ship crashes in the ocean. After the movie, the evil Dr. Forrester feels confident that Mike's sanity has been crushed after watching this B movie... but Mike is, as always, okay and perfectly sane.

Trivia: In the scene where Mike is lifting the Hubble off of the SOL after crashing into it, notice the mechanical arms are named "Manos". "Manos" is Spanish for "Hands" and is also the name of the worst movie MST3K ever did: "Manos: The Hands of Fate."
Question: Are the foreign movies dubbed or subbed?

Chosen answer: Dubbed.
There might have been a technical reason they did not use subtitled movies, because the superimposed row of chairs and actors at the bottom of the frame would have covered up the subtitles.
