Young teen Jack (Clifford Sales) is working on an electronic device with no visible power source which mystifies his father (Gene Raymond). When pressed by his dad (Gene Raymond), Jack states that he's getting instruction from a Mr. White, who's revealed to be an alien on the moon! The instructions seem to be delivered by means of telepathy, and when Jack begins revealing too much, he's rendered mute so he can't speak. However, one of the things Jack shared with his father was how he 'sent' objects to the moon via the mechanical gadget he was tinkering with. To put an end to the alien interference with his son, Andy rigged up a packet of explosives to teleport to the moon, causing an explosion witnessed by family friend Dr. Barnes (Edwin Cooper) through a powerful telescope. This was a fairly straightforward story that like a lot of the 'Tales of Tomorrow', simply ended when the time limit had run its course. Not too demanding and consequently not too compelling when all was said and done, and just a bit too simplistic considering the set up at the start.
