Harry and Tommy decide to contact the home planet and request that the unit be brought home for emergency maintenance, possibly to never return.

Note: The 3D scenes use the Pulfrich effect. The 3D effect can be seen by covering the right eye with a darkened lens, such as from sunglasses. 3.5 stars!

When the time to leave arrives, the aliens find Dick, but he tells them that he's staying on Earth with Mary, and, reluctantly, they leave without him.

3.85 stars for disc 4. 3.81 stars for Season 2. Wish I had known the trick of with the sunglasses for the 3-d episodes!! It looked like it would have been pretty cool!
