Summary
Hawk joins the crew of the Searcher to find lost colonies from Earth, just as his own people had left Earth centuries ago for a new home elsewhere in space. Dr. Goodfellow directs a group consisting of William "Buck" Rogers, Hawk, and Wilma to escort a visiting ambassador to a peace conference. However, the shuttle Buck is piloting crashes with Duvoe aboard, possibly bringing about an interplanetary war if he does not reach the conference in time. Relations between the men are strained because of Duvoe competing with Buck for Wilma's affections, as the ambassador had been romantically involved with her in the past. While Buck tries to keep the group alive and reach the conference on time, the Searcher comes under attack by the ambassador's ship, whose crew wants to know what has happened to their leader.
Notes
- Originally aired as a 120-minute episode, but has been formatted as two 60-minute episodes in most subsequent re-airings for scheduling reasons. While many guides list it as a two-parter, its initial airing and release on DVD as one double-length episode should make this the official recognition.
- Mark Lenard is known to Star Trek fans as the Vulcan ambassador Sarek from the Star Trek: The Original Series episode "Journey to Babel". Lenard would later go on to reprise the role of Sarek in the movies Star Trek III: The Search for Spock, Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home and Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country, and in the Star Trek: The Next Generation episodes "Sarek" and "Unification, Part I".
- Ron Gans would later go on to play the voice of Armus in the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode "Skin of Evil".
