The aliens create a clone of the starchild, the only successful human/saurian hybrid. The standoff between clone and original is absolutely classic...not leastly because the creators made the two distinguishable by having the clone wear NO MAKEUP...and i don't mean no alien makeup, i mean no makeup period. The starchild has standard "human TV female" makeup. To watch them face off gives the viewer a stunning opportunity, very likely unique in the history of television, to appreciate how much more attractive a woman is without makeup. This one also has the hands-down cheesiest moment of the series, when our heroes trot out an a capella "America the Beautiful" in response to the alien's own planetary anthem. Not recommended for those with touchy stomachs.

A good episode, making up for the last one... Also includes former b-acting lead William Wellman Jr. As a priest, who takes care of a little girl who brings out the cuddly in Ham...
