The Wheel - Part 1
The Wheel - Part 2

A mother, her mute brother and her child whose father is never mentioned in the course of the story that I noticed and oh by the way the only men we knew she met were her dad and the brother returning to the cave where the siblings first lived, where they find audio tapes left to them by their now dead parents. From these tapes we learn nuclear war is bad but following one up by launching a roving doomsday device is worse.

This was not good. This is basically 50 minutes of exposition about the unexpected downside of atomigeddon and it made me want to relisten to Canticle to hear this kind of thing done right.

Cast:
Roxann Dawson

So a really bad sequel to "Lot's Wife"?

Is that the Ward Moore? I don't really remember that one.

Just think about what Lot got up to with his daughters.

Think the title was just "Lot" with the sequel being "Lot's Daughter"
