blinded the mother ship and killed its beloved father to prevent a new electronic brain from being built. He saw Brian's replacement sitting on a work bench. Just then, Maya appears in the form of Captain Michael. Now confronted by its dead father, Brian blows several circuits out of panic. Koenig and company continue to verbally batter the hysterical robot with repeated accusations. Like a guilty child, Brian tries to hide, ending up in an airlock. Koenig ejects the machine into space, but its antenna is trapped when the outer door cycles shut. Brian threatens to erase his memory core unless he is brought back aboard. The Alphans must proceed cautiously as Brian is linked to the only available working computer. Despite the threat, Koenig orders the antenna cut and the robot set adrift. Begging for mercy, Brian breaks down, sobbing as it offers to give the Alphans anything they want. Later, Main Computer is restored using Brian's memory core. The first operation performed is to verify the Moon's present trajectory; the data confirms their course remains unchanged. Hoping to cause confusion with this red herring, Brian the Brain was apparently manipulating Computer from the very beginning. Regarding the robot, the Alphans elect to give it a second chance. The memory core will be returned to Brian—once programmed with a proper sense of morality. Afterward, Koenig and Helena make a date to discuss the results of the love test...

As the robot became agitated, the three Alphans would comment that it required maintenance and would bombard Brian with pleas to be the one to perform the task. At this
