Michael Ansara stars as Quarlo, a hardened soldier from the future who has accidentally been sent back in time to 1960's America, where he uses his advanced weapon to destroy a police car, though after his helmet is knocked off, he is captured and held in a secret location, where language expert Tom Kagan(played by Lloyd Nolan) tries to make contact with him, much to the disbelief of Agent Paul Tanner(played by Tim O'Connor) When a second future soldier is sent back to this time as well, Quarlo must make one last stand to defend his non-enemy Kagan, and his family... Entertaining and imaginative episode may well have inspired "The Terminator", even if the film greatly improved the scope and F/X on display here. Teeters close to the comical at times, but never does fall over.
