A man believes he is in psychic contact with an alien agent. Between the two of them, they are convinced that there is a plot to destroy all humans. Both of them want to prevent it, and both are struggling with their superiors to convince them of the truth. This episode wasn't, but could well have been the inspiration for the film, “A Beautiful Mind”

To everything else on planet Earth (even the rocks), we are the aliens. John Carpenter Jr. (Paul Hecht) communicates psychically with Ivan Ivanovich Plotnik (Mandel Kramer) on the other side of the Iron Curtain. Marie Cheatham's only appearance.

An okay tale of psychic communication, but not one that I think very highly of. It's kind of interesting in the idea of the two sides of the iron curtain working together (or are they?), but it just didn't work for me that well.

Promising concept at first but the story falls flat. The muffled sound quality made it very frustrating to listen to, especially since the story turned out mediocre at best.

Christine

I agree with Christine, episode had potential but didn’t quite deliver towards the end. Still love CBSRMT though!
