The episode is about a filthy coal miner Wilhelm( David McCallum) who is persuaded by his beautiful and very highly appealing girlfriend , Cathy ( Jill Haworth) to leave the coal mines and go to work for a job as an assistant to a brilliant professor of genetics (Edward Mulhare). The Professor soon turns the former coal miner into an evolved large brained creature of the future.
The ep is similar to the second Star Trek pilot ' Where no man has gone before' in the premise of a regular man mutating and becoming super knowledgeable and super intelligent. Neither ep of either series is that particularly realistic in it's treatment of the subject matter as actually the universe and life in it is too complicated to have just been a coincidence. (But neither mutated man in either show may have read books or computer-located screen info showing that but in Star Trek pilot's case that is unlikely!) Also, the Bible has scientific accuracy like round Earth and jet streams and more also showing and much more proving it is the word of God indeed. Did either mutant in either episode read about such Biblical accuracy?
( Both eps were directed by James Goldstone!)
