Starring: Kevin Conway

Summary: The Grells were rescued from their dry and dying planet by humans, only to
be turned into slaves on earth. Now the aliens are rebelling against their
masters, fighting a guerilla war against a government lead by men like High Secretary Paul Kohler (Ted Shackleford). When a jet carrying Paul, his wife Olivia (Marina Sirtis) and theirThe Grells were rescued from their dry and dying planet by humans, only to
be turned into slaves on earth. Now the aliens are rebelling against their
masters, fighting a guerilla war against a government lead by men like
High Secretary Paul Kohler (Ted Shackleford). When a jet carrying Paul,
his wife Olivia (Marina Sirtis) and their children is shot down by a missile,
his Grell slaves Jesha (Maurice Dean Wint) and Ep (Gerry Currie) have
the opportunity to escape. Ep breaks for freedom and is killed when Paul
activates the electronic slave collar all Grells must wear. Jesha, driven by
his love for Paul's children Sara and Ken, stays and rescues his master's
family from the jet's twisted wreckage. Despite his horror at Ep's death
and Paul's brutal treatment of him, Jesha remains loyal to the humans. He
rescues Sara when the rebel slave leader Shak-El (David McNally)
captures her. Then he uses Grell alchemy to heal Paul, who has been
mortally wounded in a fire fight with a Grell rebel. When Jesha saves Paul,
however, the master becomes a half-breed; his skin changes to a mottled
yellow, like a Grell's, and he is able see ultraviolet light by day and heat at
night. Paul also begins to see the world from a Grell point of view. He's
horrified when he comes across a rebel settlement, where men, women
and children have been massacred by federal troops. And he's terrified
when a federal soldier, Lt. Lockhart, captures him and slaps a slave collar
on him, believing him to be a Grell rebel. The experience changes Paul,
but will he or his family or Jesha live long enough to change the world?… Expand
