Man or Amoeba

My Favorite Martian – Season 1

Renowned scientist Professor Newton Jennings posits that life no more advanced than amoebas or jellyfish can exist on Mars. Martin helps Angela write a report refuting Jennings claims, which quickly gets her a failing grade. When Martin's attempts to reason with Angela's teacher fails, Martin figures the only way to regain the upper hand—and Angela's trust—is to expose Jennings as a fraud.
