SYNOPSIS

As Part Two opens, Diana Prince [LYNDA CARTER] is in the grip of Sardor, punching at him and trying to get free. Johnny [VINCENT VAN PATTEN] enters the room and orders a musical command to let her go. He explains to the Skrill that he doesn't want to waste such a valuable mind and aims his gauntlet at Diana Prince, who is once again in Sardor's grip. At that moment, Andros [DACK RAMBO] enters the room and as he presses a button on his amulet, a Skrill disappears. He threatens Johnny and the other Skrill if they do not release Diana Prince, he is also willing to sacrifice the minds they have stolen for the life of Diana. They agree and she is released. She is unconscious, Andros carries her to the couch and uses his amulet to bring her round.

Andros: Princess, are you alright?

Diana: Uh yeah, um, I'm a little bit shaky but I think I'm alright. The Skrill?!

Andros: Escaped. I had a feeling they would come for you.

Diana: That means that they know who I really am?

Andros: Our greatest danger lies in underestimating them.

   Back at the Skrill hideout, Karen presents Johnny with a list of names of people connected with Tertex, a 'think tank' made up of the best minds on the planet, minds that the Skrill know will be valuable.

   Back at Diana's apartment Steve calls to tell her that the Skrill have taken over an abandoned building and he needs to speak to Andros. He asks him if he can deal with the Skrill and Andros says that he can so Steve sends a car to take him to the building. Andros won't let Diana accompany him.

   Andros arrives at the abandoned building and begins to look for the Skrill. Johnny is there but is hiding outside with another Skrill.

   Back at her apartment Diana is worried that Andros has walked into a trap so she calls Steve who tells her not to worry and to keep away but she spins into Wonder Woman and heads for the building. She searches for Andros and just as she finds him Johnny uses his gauntlet to make the building collapse, he runs away convinced that both Andros and Wonder Woman have been killed. They have survived.

Wonder Woman: Are you hurt?

Andros: No I'm fine.

Wonder Woman: We gotta stop meeting like this.

Andros: We seem to have difficulty staying out of trouble don't we?

Wonder Woman: Yes!

Andros: Thanks to this plague that's befallen your planet.

Wonder Woman: The Skrill led you to believe that they were here in order to kill you.

Andros: Vermin. Now that they think they've succeeded they'll rob the Earth until their mind banks are gutted.

Wonder Woman: Any idea where they'll strike next?
Andros: I wish I did Princess. I wish I did.

   The first Tertex victim is a distinguished U.S. Senator, who is captured by Johnny. Then Carla Burgess [PAMELA MASON] a world renowned sculptress and humanitarian is captured by one of the twins. The third victim, a university professor is saved by Wonder Woman when Diana is notified by Steve that the Skrill were headed for the university. She captures the Skrill but has to let her go so that she can prevent the professor from using the jewel on himself.

   Diana and Andros are in Steve's office. Andros is nervous and pacing. The Planetary Council gave him six days to save Earth and he is down to 48 hours. If he doesn't succeed, the Council will take the matter in their own hands. Decontamination will occur at the end of 48 hours. Diana pleads with Andros to ask the council for more time but they refuse. Andros suggests they tell the world what is happening and he, Diana and Steve make preparations to leave for the United Nations immediately.

   Andros explains to the General Assembly about the Skrill and warns the delegates that their nations should prepare for the decontamination process. While this is going on, Johnny overpowers a guard and a Skrill walks into the guard. The guard enters General Assembly and Andros reacts by screaming "Skrill". A number of Skrill surround the delegates and pandemonium erupts. Johnny escapes with Wonder Woman after him. Racing after him, she suddenly stops.

   Wonder Woman realizes all this confusion was masterminded by Johnny to get her out of the room. She returns and is in a near state of shock: There on the floor is Andros. She goes to him and gently lifts him. His face is slack and empty; the Skrill have taken his mind. He is taken to the hospital but the doctor can only monitor his vital signs. Diana takes his amulet and in another room spins into Wonder Woman. She transports herself to the Planetary Council to appeal for their help now that Andros is unable to do anything but they refuse and she realizes that it is up to her to find the Skrill and the stolen minds before time runs out.

   Back at the I.A.D.C headquarters Steve and Diana provide I.R.A.C with the information that they have in the hope that he will be able to locate the Skrill's hiding place but he is unable to help and suggests that they ask Wonder Woman to question Debbie again.

   In Steve's office Wonder Woman questions Debbie [KRISTIN LARKIN]. She has her lasso looped around her with the same question -where is the Skrill's hiding place? Debbie tells her in the woods, near a tunnel and animals. Steve [LYLE WAGGONER] and Wonder Woman figure out that the location is the old zoo.

   As Wonder Woman approaches an abandoned bear pit, a Skrill, musically relates the news of her presence to Johnny. He orders the mind banks ready for evacuation. A battle follows with Johnny and the Skrill firing their gauntlets at Wonder Woman. She deflects them easily and as she approaches them, stops short at what she sees. It is Sardor and he lunges for her. She leaps away and finds herself near a container of "Sardor-nip" and begins throwing some of the substance on Johnny and the other Skrill.

   They back away and find themselves in a corner. Suddenly an iron cage door crashes down, trapping the Skrill, blocking Sardor's attack. Johnny, realizing he is trapped, emits a sharp musical chord and Sardor immediately turns his attention to Wonder Woman. Wonder Woman lures the monster out into the open and toward the pit. They fight, then Sardor lunges at her and as she steps aside, the beast plunges into the deep pit. She breathes a sigh of relief as she hears the sound of the approaching sirens.

   In Andros' hospital room, Wonder Woman holds the amulet up near the Skrill's mind-filing cabinet. Suddenly there is a light and she takes out a jewel which is Andros' mind. She touches the jewel to his forehead and Andros instantly awakens and is immediately himself again. He then explains to the doctor how to restore the minds of the others.

   Wonder Woman, Steve and Andros then head for the forest area where the Skrill are under the guard of the state police. Andros restores Johnny's mind. The police are baffled. They do not know what to do with the Skrill. Andros immediately takes charge. He depresses a button on the amulet, a high-pitched sound emanates from it and the Skrill disappear, leaving only a pile of clothes on the ground. Steve watches with awe and thanks Andros for saving the planet. He moves off to join the state police leaving Wonder Woman and Andros alone.

Wonder Woman: Deja vu! The last time we said goodbye was when?1943?

Andros: Perhaps we should keep track of our hello's instead? Even better...

Wonder Woman: Don't ask me that.

Andros: I know a planet with eight moons, they fill the night sky like jewels in a crown. You'd look beautiful under that sky.

Wonder Woman: Andros I can't. I'm needed here.
Andros: Yes you are. So Princess, until, whenever.
Wonder Woman: Until whenever.

   He sadly leaves her and immediately the clouds billow across the sun, blackening the sky and there is a sound of thunder. As the wind blows around her and whistles through the trees, Wonder Woman quietly watches Andros disappear.

   Back at the I.A.D.C Diana gives her report to IRA, who asks about Andros and the Skrill. He also seems to have been programmed to have a sense of humor as he proceeds to tell Diana several bad jokes until she leaves.

   Arriving back at her apartment Diana goes out onto the balcony and looks up at the night sky. She hears Andros' words and as she looks up at the moon she quietly says "Until whenever Andros, whenever."
