Synopsis by Hal Erickson

The Dick Van Dyke Show invades Twilight Zone territory in this unforgettable episode. Unable to sleep one night, Rob (Dick Van Dyke) turns on the TV and watches a sci-fi movie about "Kolac," evil emissary from the planet Twilo, who uses cosmic walnuts to turn human beings into three-eyed, thumbless aliens. The next morning, Rob is astonished when Laura (Mary Tyler Moore) serves him a breakfast consisting entirely of walnuts -- and even more so when, at the office, Buddy (Morey Amsterdam) and Sally (Rose Marie) are energetically discussing the previous day's speech at the U.N. by "Kolac from Twilo." But nothing prepares Rob for the unexpected arrival of a three-eyed Danny Thomas -- nor the sudden disappearance of his own thumbs! (And by the way: would you believe that this man has 2,000 bees on his face?)
