Frank is forced to destroy Valerie with an electric shock, but, as she lies dying, Valerie tells him that she is afraid to die. Later, Valerie escapes, follows Frank and again tries to kill Rachel. Frank decides that he must speak to Valerie before she is dismantled, and Valerie explains her feelings for Frank and tries unsuccessfully to rekindle their relationship. After following Frank and Rachel on a rock climbing outing, Valerie attempts to dispose of her rival but is shut down before being returned to Innobotics. Valerie responds to this by displaying more human traits such as anger and envy. After the sexual encounter, Frank explains to Valerie that he thinks it was a mistake, as he has begun to grow closer to his physiotherapist Rachel ( Nancy Allen). Over the course of the test, Valerie becomes increasingly affectionate and Frank eventually gives in. Eventually, he agrees to a one-week test period where Valerie proves to be an excellent caregiver and more. While being an ideal test candidate, due to his condition and qualifications, Frank Hellner ( William Sadler) is reluctant to take part, and he initially wants nothing to do with Valerie. Valerie 23 ( Sofia Shinas) is the latest development from the Innobotics Corporation, and she is designed to be an attractive, helpful and perfect companion for a disabled man.

Note: the series premiere, this was a double length single episode, later broken into Part 1 and Part 2 for subsequent rebroadcasts and syndication. In the epilogue of the episode, a colony of sandkings is shown surviving in the wilderness. In the end, Kress attempts to destroy all the sandkings but fails. Bitten by one of the sandkings, his obsession peaks as he alienates his wife, son, father ( Lloyd Bridges), and kills his former supervisor by throwing him in the sandking incubator, where the creatures-already starved by Kress as an experiment-quickly devour him. Kress comes to believe that he is a god to his sandkings when they erect sand structures that resemble his face. In the meantime, Kress deals with growing discord with his wife ( Helen Shaver) over financial troubles, his obsession with work and the stress of concealing the stolen Martian lifeforms from his former supervisors at the government lab. He steals some sand containing Martian eggs from his lab and creates a makeshift incubator to hatch more of the Martian lifeforms. He strongly believes that the insect-like species is actually sentient. However, Kress does not agree with the abandonment of the project and decides to continue his experiments in his barn.

Simon Kress's ( Beau Bridges) research for the government on Martian life is aborted because one of his specimens almost escapes into the natural environment.
