    Probably the best episode of all.

    I liked this episede a lot. Great story, real sci-fi.

    Android World

    The group lands on a world where humans are obsolete. Automatons have taken control with the exception of Father, the last human and creator of these machines. Quinn and Rembrandt are captured and taken to meet Father who has nefarious plans for these newly discovered humans. The professor and Wade are left with a sexy bot named Deric. As the professor works on repairing a female bot to help them get into the factory to save the others, Wade and Deric have a moment of romance. Wade kisses the wired stud but pulls aways. I'm not sure why, I would have immediately taken him to the bedroom! No sense in wasting a stud who takes orders. Nothing hotter than a lifelike vibrator. The twist ending was totally unexpected. This was one of the best episodes of the series.
