!Impact
->Written by Matt Sazama & Burk Sharpless\\
Directed by Neil Marshall

On the way to a new future on Alpha Centauri, the Robinsons are forced to evacuate their colony ship, the ''Resolute'', when an emergency strikes. Knocked off course, they crash-land on an unknown planet, then watch helplessly as their ship, the ''Jupiter 2'', sinks into a glacial lake. While attempting to retrieve a battery that will allow them to survive the harsh night, Judy is trapped beneath the ice. The family struggles to dig her out while their mother, Maureen, copes with a serious injury.

Will leads his father, John, on an expedition to find magnesium that can be used to melt the ice, but falls into a pit and finds himself lost in a temperate forest. As the family tries to save Judy, he discovers a crashed alien spacecraft. Terrified by a glimpse of something that might be its crew, he climbs a tree, only to be trapped there by the crippled top half of the Robot. As a fire consumes the forest, he resigns himself to death, but saves the Robot by cutting it out of the tree. The Robot repairs itself and rescues Will in turn.

Back at the ''Jupiter'', the rest of the family watches helplessly as Judy nears death, when the Robot appears with Will and melts the ice to free her. It then keeps them warm throughout the night.

Flashing back to the ''Resolute'', we meet Don West and his partner Tam, technicians who decide to ScrewThisImOuttaHere and evacuate along with the colonists. They are joined by "Dr. Smith", or rather an impostor who stole the real Dr. Smith's coat, just after witnessing the Robot attacking the ship and killing its crew. The ''Jupiters'' abandon ship, only to be drawn along with the ''Resolute'' into a mysterious wormhole.
