| - The door sequence happens whenever the Mystery Science Theater 3000 theme song ended, the movie sign flashed, or when Mike/Joel, Crow and Tom Servo leave the theater. During the sequence, Cambot would pass through the hexagon-shaped door in the hull of the SOL and pass through a hallway of oddly-shaped doors, which were often labeled 6-2 (though sometimes 5-2), similar to a countdown before movies that were stored on film. Originally, in the pilot episode, the doors were actually real doors that were filmed for a crude tunnel effect. In the pilot and KTMA season, none of the doors were labeled. The characters themselves do not go through the doors; they aparently go through secret hallways in the Sattelite of Love, hence Joel saying "We'll go around" in a few early KTMA episodes (although in Ring of Terror and the Season 2-5 intro theme, the Airlock was used by Joel to get to the theater, back when it was an alternate way of getting there). On occasions (such as a time when Joel and the bots played a game of tag in Humanoid Woman and The Corpse Vanishes), the characters actually ran halfway down the tunnel and seem to always end up getting "run over" by Cambot (in actuality, they are running in place infront of the greenscreen, and it shows). In Soultaker, Mike tries to open the door in the backdrop but has trouble opening it. By the time he gets it open, he begins running down the hallway and trips just as door 5 opens.
