Jenny Randolph: What is a tango alert?
Captain Randolph: Tango? Tango means that we have a terrorist on board.

Captain Randolph: Well, what else am I going to do? Tell them that we have a demon from hell aboard this ship. They will send a psychiatrist and a straight jacket. Right at this moment, what we need is firepower!

Aside from the positives, this runs kind of like Kolchak: The Night Stalker (Darren McGavin, remember?) meets the Love Boat, but in spite of the ultimate cheese of this work, it still holds something resembling a plot, and actually attempts to gain your respect while making you laugh and roll your eyes.
As conflicted as this work is, I still managed to find some enjoyment herein. Maybe you will, too.
