What happens
Commander Buzz Corey and his partner Happy investigate an epidemic on Saturn City that leaves citizens listless and without will. Their search leads them to Venus, where a criminal named Brokoff controls the only remedy, which is derived from a poisonous plant. Brokoff demands 50,000 credits and the Space Patrol's cooperation in exchange for curing Carol Carlisle, who has fallen ill. The episode is part of the Space Patrol radio series, which was first broadcast on March 19, 1955. The partners must weigh their mission against Carol's safety as the stakes rise.

Written from the episode itself; it never gives away the ending. Every recording is remastered for the stream: cleaned of rumble, hiss and mains hum (and the old TV whine where we found it), then levelled in two passes to steady broadcast loudness, so one show is never quieter than the next.
