Storyline:Back in the year 2002, Frau Farbissina (Mindy Sterling) visited Dr.Evil - now incarcerated in a Georgia State Prison, and told him that his neglected son Scott "wants to take over the family business."Among other things, Luthor had inherited the estate's yacht (namedThe Gertrudewhich was piloted by henchman Stanford (Kal Penn)) and was navigating through rough seas to Superman's Fortress of Solitude in the Arctic, accompanied by his moll girlfriend Kitty Kowalski (Parker Posey) in the ship's vast library, and other "creepy friends" from prison, including one thug who continually was video-taping the blindly-arrogant criminal for posterity.The blowing trees outside his window cast moving shadows across his pillow and rustle the curtains.Inexplicably but intentionally, a mechanical toy monkey on his dresser begins moving manically - it noisily clashes its two cymbals together.Altman's rambling, semi-improvised film, shot almost entirely in sequence, featured great cinematography by Vilmos Zsigmond who created an antique-like, golden-hued, sepia-toned, painterly portrait of the unsightly town in the early 1900s.The way those subs ganged up on us, I thought hey had it in for me personally....Anyone who knows me will tell you I'm a book man.I believe everything in it was put in for a purpose.When in doubt, remember on board this ship, we do thingsby the book.Deviate from the book and you'd better have a half a dozen good reasons.And you'll still get an argument from me.And I don't lose arguments on board my ship.That's, uh, one of the nice things about being Captain.I want you to remember one thing.On board my ship, excellent performance is standard.Standard performance is substandard.Substandard performance is not permitted to exist.That - I warn you.He explained how he wouldn't tolerate "sub-standard performance" from the crew or officers.The new, peculiar take-charge Captain also specifically instructed Lt.Maryk after he made a comment about how he lax crew hadn't done things 'by the book' for a long time:.
