"A Much Needed Holiday" is the second episode of season five of The Tomorrow People Original Series.
When the Tomorrow People go on vacation to an alien planet, they discover that the natives have been enslaved.
Part One: Spilled Porridge (14 March 1977)
Mike is still upset about the death of Pavla, so John suggests they all go on holiday. The three Tomorrow People go to the planet Gallia, where Timus Irnok Mosta has sent them to do an archaeological survey to determine why civilization there collapsed 2000 years ago.
In a mine, aliens force slaves (young native boys) to extract raw diamonds. Two slaves escape, and a pair of guards are dispatched to retrieve them.
In their force-field protected dwelling, the Tomorrow People see the escaped slaves and bring them inside. They make attempts to communicate, and learn that the boys are named Trig and Trog.
Later, John, and Mike go out to local villages to find out more information, taking Trog with them. Everywhere they go, villagers hide. Furthermore, there are no boys in the villages.
Mike and Trog go into one village while John stays behind to observe. The guards arrive; John tells Mike to jaunt, but Mike decides to stay and talk. The guards shock Mike and Trog, then drag them away.
