As I recall, if you enter the transporter room, then walk a little to the left, Spikey will come out of the conduits below the transporter and will latch onto your face, making him easy to catch.

Well, I should know about this one.... I just played SQ5. Wink

I think the way I did it was to wait for a while, then after one of the garbage pickups after the Spike one you can leave your chair and get him.
Thanks,

my way is slightly different. After cliffy sez "theres an acid piddler in here" or whatever, lay in a course for the next planet but dfnt go into light speed. Then walk into the transporter room and walk to the left. And thats it

My way of doing it would just to be let Spike out. Walk into the science lab, back out, then back in again then walk towards the transporter. Spike is acquired! Make sure you have Antacids from the tool bin first, though.

If I'm not mistaken, I think that Spikey will 'attack' your face the 2nd time you enter the science lab after letting him out. From that 2nd visit onward, he'll show up when you move 'into' the lab a bit (towards the transporter).
