"Through all the legends of ancient peoples - Assyrian, Babylonian, Sumerian, Semitic - runs the saga of the Eternal Man, the one who never dies, called by various names in various times, but historically known as Gilgamesh, the man who has never tasted death ... the hero who strides through the centuries ..." In a role written for him by famed sci-fi writer Harlan Ellison, Robert Culp stars as Trent, an intent, enigmatic man from the future who escapes back into our present. Pursued by the Kyben -- an alien race which has conquered future Earth -- the fate of all humankind lies in Trent's glass hand. Trapped in a dilapidated office building (the Bradbury Building which also served as J.F. Sebastian's home in "Blade Runner"), Trent battles the Kyben as both sides fight for survival. This tension-filled, visually fascinating episode won Ellison the Writers Guild Award for Outstanding Script for a Television Anthology.
