(More customer reviews)A US Army lieutenant (Steve Inhat) is shot in the head in some unnamed Southeast Asian War, but lives and develops some extraordinary mental abilities. The CIA (Robert Duval) investigates and discovers that there are three others, also shot in the head in the same war, who also survive and begin to display expanded mental capabilities. The metal used in the bullets proves to come from a meteor, and is honeycombed to suggest that something was present that leaked out into their brains. The leader develops the ability to manipulate the stock market and provides money for the others, although they have never met. One of the other men becomes a metallurgist although he's had no formalized training in the field; another disappears up the Amazon looking for rare plants; the final person becomes an electronics genius. When they come together they build a spaceship capable of reaching another star. The electronics genius holds the CIA at bay with a force-field while the leader convinces sick and lame children to accompany them on their trip. This is the best of the excellent Outer Limits stories. Where the writing on Twilight Zone was usually dark and somber, in this series and this particular epsiode the outcome is one of hope for the future.
