He is fleeing an invasion by an alien race called the Kyben who wish to exterminate humanity. The humans came up with the ploy to send Trent into the past after releasing a plague which would decimate the Kyben and any humans left, but dissipates after a period of twenty thousand years. The Kyben send assassins through the time mirror to kill Trent and confiscate his glass hand which acts as a computer with the information to answer his questions stored in it, as Trent suffers from amnesia. Trent is successful in dispatching the assassins and destroying the time mirror, recovering the missing parts of his glass hand which inform that he is actually a robot and not a man. Trent despairs of facing twenty thousand years alone. This is Harlan Ellison's original version, not the rewritten script that aired on THE OUTER LIMITS October 17, 1964. less

Now, in search of some new pets to satisfy his cruel pursuit of amusement, Simon finds a new shop in the city where he is intrigued by a new lifeform he has never heard of before ... a collection of multi-colored sandkings. The curator explains that the insect-like animals, no larger than Simon's fingernails, are not insects, but animals with a highly-evolved hive intelligence capable of staging wars between the different colors, and even religion--in the form of worship of their owner. The curator's warning to Simon about the regularity of their feeding, unfortunately, was not taken seriously....
