This episode is about the living brain of a dead billionaire seeking to have itself a new body to continue managing his legacy. It was directed by Gordon Hessler and a story written by John Gaynor. It stars Floyd Levine, Cathie Shirriff and Peter Mark Richman. The concept of body swapping has always been interesting; the most successful attempt at such a story is most likely 'Get Out' from 2017. However, this is a cheesy 70s show, so expect nothing amazing with this story decision. There is very little usage of the theme, not only until 3/4 of the story is it actually put into some good use. The characters aren't really that interesting at all. We finally see Lyle Waggoner in a more prominent role as Steve Trevor Jr., he has a chase scene which was cool. The episode closes off with a very thrilling and intense ending, some good action scenes with Wonder Woman fighting a telekinetic brain. But then there is no final conclusion to what actually happens to the brain after his accomplices are jailed. Did they pull the plug or was a brain in a fish tank actually put in prison?! Quite a lazily unsatisfying touch to an otherwise enjoyable ending.
