Fox premieres the fifth episode of the military science fiction series Space: Above And Beyond.
A vehicle forces its way into the Saratoga, and its sole pilot, thought to be dead, renders the majority of a security team helpless before finally being taken prisoner. But this pilot is no Chig – it’s Lt. Colonel Ray Butts, and he has orders for the 58th. He also has a problem with the 58th in just about every respect, and makes this fact known quite clearly. Butts plans to take the 58th deep into enemy territory on what seems like it must be a suicide mission…and he plans to do so over McQueen’s objects, or his dead body, if necessary.
