The fifth episode of Wonder Woman airs on ABC, starring Lynda Carter and Lyle Waggoner. John Saxon guest stars, and Debra Winger guest stars as Wonder Girl.
Drusilla, in her Wonder Girl guise, is in the hands of Nazi Captain Radl, who forces her to reveal the secret location of Paradise Island, home of her fellow Amazons. With no idea where her sister is, Wonder Woman remains in her Diana Prince guise. When Major Trevor intercepts Nazi orders involving an uncharted island, Wonder Woman must return home to protect her homeland and save her people. But how easily will the Nazis give up their new obsession with feminum, the metal from which her armbands are forged?
