What is never explained to us is why the giants are taking care of the girl Marna. What did they want her for? What would they have done with all the others? How did her parents die? Did they kill them, and were they experimented upon too? It was an interesting episode featuring other shipwrecked passengers, but this plot line was not explored enough. It shows that perhaps not all giants wanted to harm the little people, but why not? This sort of built up a nice possibility to connect the giants with the stranded castaways, but then the link was broken quickly. Land of the Giants share much with its sister show Lost in Space, but this gaping plot hole might have been addressed there better in that series.
