Much simpler solution. They had communicators, right? Just start singing MUSKRAT LOVE over and over again. The gorn stabs himself. Yes, to win using your wits is good, but to win using The Capain and Tennille is perfect. Them other aliens that set this fight up would’ve run off screaming. Not that there was anything wrong with Tony Tennille though.
I had a good friend who sang in the Auburn University choir with Toni Tennille.
Alright, I’ll give you that.... Muskrat Love will do in just about any disgusting, reptilian alien. However, nobody can beat Slim Whitman’s “Una Paloma Blanca” for sheer alien-destroying power. Look what it did to the Martians. I rest my case.
