Episode Overview
Title: The Equilibrium of Life Plot: Dr. Noah Phillips (Maurice Godin) was determined to save his wife Meredith (Lisa Maris), who was battling cancer at just 30 years old. In a moment of desperation, he disregarded ethical boundaries and tested an unapproved treatment he had created alongside his colleague, Dr. Don Kingsly (Andrew Airlee). Although the Cellular Regressor initially rejuvenated Meredith’s condition, the effects were short-lived, and the cancer returned with lethal force, claiming her life instantly. Heartbroken and facing financial ruin after his funding was withdrawn, Noah at 35 retreats to a quiet town, where he becomes neighbors with the elderly couple, Barbara (Barbara Rush) and Greg Matheson (Harve Presnell).
