| - A government physicist, Dr. Munson (Walter Abel), who is actually an android, walks into a secure government facility to steal transistors for use as android components. In making his escape, he is undeterred by four bullets in the back. Later, his corpse is found at the bottom of a cliff; cause of death: electrocution, some time before the robbery. The National Intelligence Agency sends agent Glenn Martin (George Nader) to investigate. Martin links "android" with "Dornheimer", whose house is near the site where Munson's body was discovered. He impersonates a magazine reporter and interviews the cyberneticist at his home. Unable to find out much, he breaks in at night and discovers the android operation before being caught, imprisoned and duplicated himself. The android Martin returns to NIA headquarters, arousing the suspicions of his secretary/colleague/love interest, Gail (Barbara Nichols). She begins to follow him. Kolos, meanwhile, develops feelings for the blind, piano-playing niece of the Professor, Lisa (Dolores Faith). He deviates from his bosses' project plan by failing to have her duplicated according to standard procedure. It turns out the androids have a design defect. They start defying Kolos and take him prisoner. They seize Lisa and prepare to duplicate her. Martin, in the basement, is furiously working to escape his cell. Will Agent Martin escape the cage where he and Dr. Dornheimer have been confined? Will the aliens succeed in their "Galaxy Domination Program"? Will the androids rebellion pose a threat to Earth even worse than the aliens?
