It appears that the only familiar face in this episode is that of John Koenig. It looks like, while the other stars were filming a different episode (one where Koenig was out "exploring"), Martin Landau was filming this one with an entirely different crew, including a whole new set of people in the command center. Were they the evening shift? Some of these people appear in this next episode, so I can't say they're all new. But, no Tony? Helena? Interesting.
The episode is not bad, by second season standards, anyway. The actress who played Alizia seemed to relish playing a sadistic dominatrix. My only complaint is that I would have liked to see how the people in the penal colony dealt with finding out that Alizia had been lying the whole time.
