Sith Tal is an alien from a planet 1,000 light years away. He has traveled far to collect specimens from distant nebulae for his Zoo Ship. From Earth, he collects a human male, Paul Reynolds, a news reporter, and school teacher Lola Barnes. The pair are labeled as “Exhibit One”. Sith Tal changes their biology to live longer than a human lifespan. Paul gets Sith Tal to let him out of his cage, saying he’s getting bored and can help with menial tasks. Sith Tal agrees. Soon, Lola and Paul are helping with the ship’s operations. Paul has figured out the ship runs on a warp-drive, giving it the ability to move at faster than light speed. Over the months and years, the pair resign themselves to their fate, assisting Sith Tal in the collection of specimens. Once they earn the alien’s trust, Paul and Lola begin planning an escape. Lola ferrets away canned food while Paul studies maps and “film-books”. Finally, they escape in the ship’s “Space Life-Boat”. They return to Earth, but it’s the year 9783. An Earth scientist sends out gigantic robots that quickly capture Lola and Paul. They are put on exhibit as specimens of “Man 1950”.
