Jamie Lee Curtis stars as Jen, the girlfriend of criminal Malary Pantera, who selflessly takes the rap for her man's crimes, naively expecting to be rescued by the untrustworthy slimeball. Luckily for Jen, she is 'busted out' of her high-security prison by 'fellow inmate' Buck (Gil Gerard), who needs her to spill the beans on her boyfriend's racket. Unfortunately, however, the fugitives are pursued by a badly damaged, but very persistent android guard, who just won't quit until he has them back in custody.
A product of the late 70s, this one features all the trappings one should expect in a sci-fi show from that era: women wearing lip-gloss and sporting Farrah Fawcett hair-dos, rather weak special effects (spacecraft with heavy black matte lines, unconvincing rubber creatures, etc.) and cheap looking sets and props (made from fancy 'space-age' materials such as coloured perspex).
As always, the women are gorgeous: Jamie Lee looks damn fine in her tight outfit (which shows off her exceptionally hot body), Tara Buckman plays the latest pretty 'moll' of space gangster Pantera, and they are, of course, joined by the sexiest ever woman to pilot a spacecraft on TV, the always delicious Erin Gray as Col. Wilma Deering (who wears a red shiny Spandex outfit in this particular episode) .
Meanwhile, Gerard does his usual cheeky rogue act and throws a few poorly choreographed punches (along with some flimsy props), Hugo the relentless android kicks a couple of polystyrene rocks, and Twiki, the robot with the peculiarly shaped head, says a few quaint 70s phrases to the amusement of his 25th Century pals.
A very entertaining episode from this gloriously cheesy series.
