Determined to "change the world" in a hurry, home-grown terrorist Eric Stone (Geoffrey Deuel) has no qualms about resorting to violence. Together with fellow conspirators Gilbert Manning (Tom Falk), Karen Wandemere (Diane Ewing), and Knox and Allen Hiller (Wayne Maunder, Mark Jenkins), Stone has cut quite a swath across the country, wreaking all manner of destruction on government property. With time running out and only a handful of leads at his disposal, Inspector Erskine (Efrem Zimbalist Jr.) must locate the Federal building that has been booby-trapped with a time bomb by the arrogant would-be revolutionaries. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Although Tony is by now accustomed to Jeannie, it embarrasses him to have her waiting on him hand and foot like a slave--harem outfit and all. Ever anxious to please her Master, Jeannie decides to become a 100% American Woman, using information gleaned from a magazine article. Naturally, in her eagerness to do everything right, our heroine succeeds primarily in doing everything wrong, beginning with her efforts to land an "ordinary" job. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

As Tim (Bill Bixby) diverts Mrs. Brown (Pamela Britton), Martin (Ray Walston)flies his spaceship back into the garage. Unfortunately, Martin's actions are witnessed by Mrs. Brown's seven-year-old nephew Stanley (Rory Stevens), whose highly active imagination has resulted in an inordinate amount of discipline from his more "realistic" father (Don Keefer). It falls to Martin to convince Stanley's parents that the boy isn't making things up this time--without exposing himself as a Martian! ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Insisting that he can handle the responsibility, Wally (Tony Dow) asks to be allowed to escort Beaver (Jerry Mathers) on a 90-mile bus trip from Mayfield to Crystal Falls.

Directed by series star George Reeves, this wild-and-woolly spoof of old time movie serials begins when a mysterious masked man (Michael Fox) shows up at the "Daily Planet" to inform Clark (Reeves), Lois (Noel Neill), Jimmy (Jack Larson) and Perry White (John Hamilton) that their days are numbered. The masked figure turns out to be a criminal who has a vendetta against the "Planet" staff, and who has adopted a disguise to whet their curiosity and lure them into an elaborate trap. As the episode hurtles to its climax, Clark is about to be immersed in a vat of boiling acid, Perry has been strapped to a whirring buzz-saw, Jimmy is locked in a car without brakes that is careening down a treacherous mountain road, and Lois is tied to the railroad tracks as a speeding locomotive bears down upon her! ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

In order to afford new bicycles, Beaver (Jerry Mathers) and Wally (Tony Dow) take up a paper route. Thanks to a series of misunderstandings, the boys' parents Ward (Hugh Beaumont) and June (Barbara Billingsley) end up delivering the papers themselves -- and nearly get Beav and Wally fired in the process! This is the first Leave It to Beaver episode to feature a pre-credit "preview" without Hugh Beaumont's narration (a device that would be abandoned after the series' first season). And incidentally, the actor playing Mr. Merkel is former child star Jackie Kelk, best known as Homer on the old Henry Aldrich radio show. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

In order to get an exclusive interview with paroled criminal boss Lank Garrit (Milton Frome), Lois (Noel Neill) stages her own disappearance and sends fellow reporter Clark (George Reeves) off on a wild goose chase. Disguising themselves as domestics, Lois and Jimmy (Jack Larson) manage to infiltrate Garrit's hotel room, only to be kidnapped and slated for a grisly demise. Thinking quickly, Lois sweet-talks Garrit's dumb henchman Lefty (Ben Welden) into freeing herself and Jimmy, only to rather stupidly fall into Garrit's clutches again. Superman will of course come to the rescue, but the real highlight of the episode is the look on ubiquitous character actor Ben Welden's face when Lois flirts with him! ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Secretary Clara Gibbons (Barbara Bestar) tells Friday (Jack Webb) and Smith (Ben Alexander) that her employer, stockbroker Henry Orleon, has left town with all the company records--after paying her a month's salary in advance. Clara further insists that Orleon is up to no good because her "mama" says so, and "mama" is always right. It turns out that the slippery Mr. Orleon has masterminded a widespread uranium stock swindle with the unwitting aid of wealthy philanthropist Mrs. Lorrington (Claudia Bryar). This episode is based on the Dragnet radio broadcast of May 3, 1955. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
