Burt Reynolds appears in this episode as Red Hand, a rebellious young Apache chief who has jumped the reservation with his family. Jason McCord (Chuck Connors) hopes to avert an all-out war with the Indians by negotiating the peaceful surrender of Red Hand, but his efforts may be thwarted by the bloodlust of Apache-hating Major Lynch (Noah Beery Jr. in a rare villainous role). "Now Join the Human Race" was later cobbled together with scenes from the multipart Branded episodes "Fill No Glass for Me" and "Call to Glory" to form the direct-to-video "feature film" Blade Rider: Revenge of the Indian Nations.
