Astronaut Warren Marcusson and scientist Sam Conrad are watching as their two-man spaceship is prepared for the flight to Mars in three hours. Marcusson wonders why they are there rather than out seeing on Earth on what may be their last night there. Sam wonders if Marcusson is afraid, and admits that he's afraid of the unknown. Marcusson shares his personal philosophy: people are alike all over. Whoever they meet on Mars, they will be just like them.The expedition proceeds but the spaceship crashes on Mars. Marcusson is badly injured in the crash and Sam does what he can for him. They hear a knocking noise on the hull but Sam refuses to open the door. When Marcusson wakes up, he discovers that Sam has yet to open the door. The scientist claims the door is jammed, but finally admits that he's afraid. Marcusson insists that the people outside are just like them, and he doesn't want to die within the ruined spaceship. Before he can get the door open, he dies of his wounds. Sam finally opens the door and finds a group of human-like Martians outside, quietly waiting for him.Two males and a female step forward and gently relieve him of his gun, then speak to him in English. When Sam admits he's surprised to hear them speak English, one of the males explains that they've telepathically taught him their language. They confirm that Marcusson is dead and offer to let Sam get some rest. Sam is surprised to see that they are indeed just like humans. As they take out Marcusson's body and assure Sam they will bury it appropriately, the scientist admits to his dead friend that he was right and people are alike all over.As the Martians take Sam back to his ship, he asks them questions about their civilization. They tell him that they'll answer his question in the morning when he's had some rest, and they'll prepare a place for him. As they go, Sam asks the female Martian what her name is. She introduces herself as Teenya and he t watch

Answer: You're quite welcome, hon. And let me point out that while Russian U.N.C.L.E. agent Ilya Kuryakin, was played by Scottish actor David McCallum, the actor would most likely accept "gorgeous" over some of the other adjectives love-struck women came up with at the time.

Take, for example, the word "cute," a favorite of fan magazines during the tongue-in-cheek spy series' 1964-68 run on NBC. "That's an American word I hate," McCallum, who played opposite Robert Vaughn's American agent, Napoleon Solo, told TV Guide in 1966. "A litter of mongrel puppies is cute."
