*"Intelligent Species"
The planet Pearl is promising as a new home for the Alphans but the discovery of an ancient ruined city suggests it may still be inhabited. Koenig's fears are realised when stocky humanoids are seen but this is nothing compared to a huge, tentacled slug creature that erupts from the ground. It is brought down by weapons fire, to be fed upon by the humanoids. The 'victory' is short-lived as a second slug abducts Helena and takes her underground. Koenig, Bergman and Carter follow, battling another slug on the edge of a volcanic abyss. Bergman theorises they may have a primitive colony like insects on Earth but instead they find an advanced city and an interesting twist to evolution on the planet...
