Stranded Companions
JordanThomasHall9 August 2018
Sister Bertrille flies out of her normal range off the coast when the wind suddenly dies, forcing her to crash land on a seemingly deserted island. When she finds a large footprint in the sand she is fearful of being captured by natives. Instead she finds Carlos, who is also stranded after being thrown overboard his yacht after trying to advance too fast on a girl, April Chance (Bridget Hanley). They begin survival tactics and reminisce on situations they've gotten in (short clip footage from previous episodes "Ah Love, Could You and I Conspire?", "The Flying Nun" (Pilot), and "Old Cars for New"). In searching for fresh water, Sister Bertrille comes across April who is washed up on shore after wrecking the boat. She tries to keep a still upset April and the news on the other side of the island from Carlos.

The episode was penned by award-winning writer Harlan Ellison under his pseudonym of Cordwainer Bird. I'll allude to the trivia section which states that he only wrote the episode to try and get a date with Sally Field.
