The principal characters are a scientist and his wife (also a scientist) who is Native American. They are both experts in the field of space travel through a kind of warping (I think). They have lost a child and the woman is quite depressed and angry. They are enlisted by a friend who is heading up a trip through a kind of worm hole to be able to move from one part of the galaxy to another. They are able to break into the hole but find that they have actually invaded a living organism, one with cells, corpuscles, and anti- bodies. There is now a moral dilemma as to how far they can go to protect themselves if they must resort to violent means to escape. There is also a relationship with the woman's grandmother, an Indian woman, who appears on board the ship. The implications are a bit too supernatural to fit with the scientific ideas. I know I'll hear from someone who feels this is disrespecting Native American religion, but I don't really have much of a supernatural belief of any kind so I would feel the same way if it had brought a Christian or other world religion into play. Another problem for me is the willy-nilly use of some science that isn't adequately explained to the viewer.

Being pregnant doesn't give you powers to communicate with the Universe. Written by a naive person. Not scientific or even fiction. Horse crap of the highest caliber.

Leaving aside the plot which had enormous metaphysical potential, they simply don't let people that unstable travel in space, much less for humanity-effecting purposes. The decisions made were not actually dramatic at all, they were a product of her imagination and a completely INSANE ability to make decisions based on no evidence whatsoever. Only the captain even tried to resist this course of action and no one spoke up about it being complete conjecture. Letting people with this level of intellectual and epistemological credulity take charge of Anything itself an insane idea. The potential of the plot was ruined by the childish beliefs and actions of the crew. This is not believable or reasonable in any sense.

Why not a 1, a previous episode I gave 1, which if possible I would have given a zero and this episode a 1. Native Americans get few acting roles, the one they do get seem to involve some great spirit. This case a living being. One more cliche, I would have puked. The irony: the episode I rated a 1, still recommend to watch, not this one.
