- Unintentional Period Piece - Dan Mason, professional metallurgist and leisure-time thrill seeker, volunteers to put on an armoured radiation suit and walk into a live reactor core to shut it down manually after the automatic systems have failed. He brushes off George Slayer's concerns about the risks by claiming that he'll be the "...the first man to walk into a live nuclear super-furnace. Not even Evel could follow up an act like that." The reference to Evel Knievel anchors the events firmly in the 1970s.
