What happens
Captain Bradford and Pat Gregory seek a new head for the scientific colony the Gregory party brought back from the Magic Island. Their candidate, the distinguished Professor Hubbard, visits the Gregory home in Los Angeles with Jerry Hall and Joan. Bradford argues that the colony needs a leader, and the professor turns the conversation toward the colony's former leader and the favor he has in mind. The episode is part of the Magic Island series, and this guide covers only its opening portion.

Written from the episode itself; it never gives away the ending. Every recording is remastered for the stream: cleaned of rumble, hiss and mains hum (and the old TV whine where we found it), then levelled in two passes to steady broadcast loudness, so one show is never quieter than the next.
