Review : Okay, the writing of the episode is a disaster. The Lazarus twins can't stop plummeting from cliffs. The captain treats a trusted friend with genuine concerns like a cheap punk. He doesn't send a security force but goes alone to apprehend a homicidal maniac...bare handed. Oy! Yet I managed to enjoy watching it, because the performers were troupers and gave it their all. Somehow they managed to impart gravity to the lightweight story line. "The Alternative Factor" may contend for the worst-place prize, but I think it won't win.
