Joe Flynn and Tim Conway are hilariously incredible!!

If you look beyond the story (as well as the robotic-like alligator), you will see that Joe Flynn (who plays the ever-conniving Capt. Binghamton) and Tim Conway (the ineptly lovable Ensign Parker) are an outstanding comedic duo. The endless bantering, bickering, and buffoonery help to liven up what would usually be a very dull court-martial. And of course, once Parker's alligator friend named Sydney shows up to save the day, he wastes no time in going after who was really responsible for the scheme. I could watch this over and over again just to see the hilarity that Binghamton and Parker perfectly exhibit during the court-martial.
