The Six Million Dollar Man - Season 5

Season 5

Grievously injured in the crash of an experimental aircraft, Colonel Steve Austin's shattered body is covertly rebuilt via the miracle of modern science known as bionics. Equipped with atomic-powered limbs that make him "better, stronger, faster" than the average mortal, Austin can now run at speeds exceeding 60 miles per hour, overturn cars with ease, and spot an encroaching enemy from over a mile away. Under the watchful eye of OSI director Oscar Goldman, Steve repays his debt to the taxpayers by taking on perilous missions of a highly classified nature.

A decision is made by the aliens to send Da Nay, a young alien woman, to the U.S. to find and bring back a serum that will boost the aliens' immunity and thus allow all the aliens to leave the island and survive with the human population. In part 2: Da Nay (Robin Mattson, who plays Heather Webber from the "General Hospital" soap opera) obtains the serum and returns to the island, where Steve Austin has found a way in past the protective barriers. Spoiler: Torg (Jared Martin, who plays Dusty Farlow on "Dallas:), one of the radiation-influenced young male aliens who feels a somewhat barbaric attraction to Da Nay, turns monstrously evil from the radiation, as do other exposed aliens.
