- Punishment without crime: When the thought police take charge, be careful what you think!
- Rocket summer & the locusts: It is twilight time for Earth. Hundreds of rockets light the night sky as the exodus begins. Three years later the voyagers arrive on Mars, for a second chance to do things right.
- Night meeting: One night on Mars, time warps in upon itself as an Earth settler confronts a Martian native. But who represents the past and who the future?
