Following a minor mishap on the road when a woman ploughs her car right off it, David assists but even his scientific mind can't do anything about a broken radiator out in the desert. So the two head off on foot across the desolate highway towards the next town, estimated to be thirty miles away.

They're picked up by another driver a few hours later, who takes them into a town where he says he lives by himself. That's not quite true of course, as they're both taken captive to work down the mines looking for gold. Their captor is a descendant of slaves and holds a grudge against white Americans, irrespective of whether they as individuals are guilty or not. And being an ex-convict, he wants to get rich by fair means or foul.
Decent episode again, largely taking place within the confines of the mine of one of the shacks in the desolate desert town. John Hancock puts in a great, sometimes chilling performance as the scorned Isaac Ross, while it's also extremely pleasant to see pre-V Faye Grant as the sexy, stubborn female that yet again causes David a whole heap of trouble (if she had only picked him up instead of driving right past him). Charles Tyner also puts in a good show as Isaac's drunken sidekick.
