Thermoman is called upon to save Grimsby from being destroyed by an abandoned Russian space station. Unfortunately, he has his own domestic disaster to deal with first. He's got Marmite over the front of his Thermo-uniform. It may be 100 per cent Thermomium and resistant to fire, flood, toxic waste and nuclear attack, but the Marmite won't shift. Janet insists on washing his costume, which not only makes him late for his rescue mission but makes him itch like crazy due to an allergic reaction to the washing powder. Piers becomes suspicious when he sees Thermoman scratching himself on a news bulletin and seconds later George appears in his surgery scratching all over. He insists on giving George a medical,and when he discovers George has two heart beats and superhuman eyesight, threatens to reveal Thermoman's double identity live on television unless George leaves Janet.A brainwipe seems to be the only answer.
