William Shatner as Brigadier General Jeff Barton and his wife, Ann, played by actress Geraldine Brooks, star in season 2, episode 2 Cold Hands, Warm Heart. After successfully landing on Venus and given a hero's welcome on return he is determined to win funding for a proposed Space flight to colonize Mars...until things go terribly wrong with his body. Aboard Venus 1, he attempts to orbit Venus but begins to lose control and his craft seemingly crashes as he notices a bizarre Venusian gazing at him. Apparently, he passed out inside a Steam Room and was only dreaming about the weird creature. His temperature rises to over 150 degrees and he begins to grow grotesque scales on his arms and fingers become webbed. His wife can only watch and wonder what else he has brought back with him. And yes, Project Vulcan was Jeff Barton's "Baby."
Starring William Shatner, Geraldine Brooks, Lloyd Gough, Malachi Throne, and Dean Harens. Produced by Ben Brady, directed by Dan Ullman, and directed by Charles Haas, and executive producer Leslie Stevens.
